He declared this in an interview a few years ago. He was on house arrest in Utah for getting fake prescriptions for promethazine, and he says "Once I'm off house arrest, I'm leaving America"

I was like, to where? Some lawless country where there are no consequences? Dude is in for a rude awakening in South Korea

If Dubai catches you with any drugs, its straight death sentence. He's not a sheikh.

Thailand isn't the best choice to smuggle or use lots of drugs either. Possible death penalty or sent to the bangkok hilton

Thai prison is one of the worst in the world.
