When done with your worship, could you please send heads to the nice IS folks in Syria/ Irag. They certainly like heads.

No tears shed, other than, another murder in Pathaya. (future city of family and sports). This one for Madame TAT.

The moment you actually know how to spell Pattaya , I am sure more people will take you more seriously

Yep, probably pronounces it Pa Tay ya instead of patty ya

I doubt seriously he was shot 10 times. No Thai is that accurate shooting from a car. Mostly likely a shotgun with buckshot.

"No Thai is that accurate shooting from a car ..."

It would hardly be a skill to be proud of, but your dismissal of 66 million people, none of whom you assume could properly aim a gun, is a stupendous example of mind boggling racism.

Not necessarily racism as few Thai gun owners have weapons that discharge repeatedly 10 times. You 'suraditly' forget that shotgun shells with buckshot have around 10 pellets. A little too touchy on the subject, stick to '69' ing. Do you think you know more than a firemedic, seriously?

"Police checks revealed he was wanted on two arrest warrants in connection with a murder from 2007 and an attempted murder from 2012."

"the victim himself was armed with a 38 caliber pistol which suggested he felt unsafe"

"Police expect the shooting to be a revenge attack for one of the two incidents he was wanted in connection with but remain open-minded for now as the murder investigation continues."

So he had 2 arrest warrants pending, for murder and attempted murder, but apparently wasn't concerned about being seen (by the police) drinking in front of a shop owned by a former mayor. Sounds like he not only had friends in high places, but powerful enemies as well. Time will tell whether or not the shooter is ever caught (or is already across the border of a neighbouring country if he's smart).

(Then again, if it turns out the owner of the car is the shooter's or driver's girlfriend, then not too smart at all.)

"Butterfly don't fly away from me"

Don't blame him, Pattaya must be a very depressing pace to live in, one day is enough for me.

Need a ride to the airport?

cocked it up but a good try, don't blame him as sex is over rated anyway and women certainly are

Kiwi ?

drag-onfly....'it's raining men, hallelujah!' Like the Thais say 'it's up you' drag..

Bacteria is different in Thailand? If it's 'stronger' it might just be down to the misuse of antibiotics regularly dispensed for colds and flu which are viral, and for almost anything else.

Maybe it's the chilis.

Nothing can live inside you if you eat a lot of chilis.

. Put chilis on the wound and kill everything, possibly yourself from a heart attack

Oh stickboy - how could you have gotten it so wrong?

So, you're looking for a job?

Well, this certainly brings on thoughts of the Johnny Cash song "Don't bring your guns to town".

Perhaps an oversight?

Today I bought an item for 60 Baht and paid with a 1000 baht note.

The saleswoman gave me back 40 baht.

I told the saleswoman that i have given her a 1000 baht note and pronto she gave me 940 Baht back.

Perhaps an oversight?

Not at all. Seventy baht (thai) actually means 20 baht the way they say it. I catch them trying to cheat me all the time as I always try to calculate how much items cost before I pay. Promotion items=full price.

"he had several businesses on Koh Samui and he had also been acting like a mafia providing protection to farang on the island."

"Thewet said Forlet was notorious for often engaging in quarrels after he became drunk."

But they classify him as a "tourist".

Tourist? Mafia? Mean drunk? Well, one less 'turkey' on Samui

Not harsh enough ! Maybe the foreigners might understand that over staying will not be tolerated.

only about 30 day overstay for one guy, and receives a 5 year ban...... harsh

Why is this a problem for you?

He was a bright spark!!!!

Joking at the tragic lost to anyone's life is sick.

Common sense tells you not to mess around with electricity,he was 18 years old,not 8!!!

Common sense is not so common anywhere, mate Even in Utopia where you left from, right?

Frances contribution to Cobra Gold?

Seems the US is again carrying the ball for other countries. Those once 'great' countries can only be reliably seen at balloon parties

They should not be allowed to operate without comprehensive insurance. These greedy morons will eventually get the message when the tourists stop coming.

My rented Pattaya house was recently struck by lightning. About B100,000 loss to me. Landlady let insurance lapse so I'm stuck

honest question. Do mosquitos actually fly to the tenth floor?

Nannystate, im happy in the village, quiet and no traffic jam.

Buffalo taxi don't say no

My condolences to K. Decha's family and friends. I wonder if he had rescued some key KMITL documents from being burned in the fire, and somehow mysteriously met his death descending the stairs down from the 10th floor?

This comment is just stupid. Firefighters are no concerned with 'rescuing' documents when you are surrounded with fire!

I thought these new glass-clad high-rise office buildings had smoke detectors and sprinklers, but in this case the fire apparently spread to 3 floors(!) ..... obviously the systems not well maintained/not effective.

Weird that 10 firemen ran out of "oxygen" and passed out .... with one dying.

Evidently the sprinkler systems were not activated. The =compressed air= tanks only last a short time and even less if worn too soon to actually needing them; add the fact that being scared (natural) causes you to exhaust the air tanks too fast. It seems that the firefighter was a volunteer and did not have an air tank. He may not have had sufficient training for a high rise fire. He tried to help---RIP. May I remind everyone reading this that 343 brave NYC firefighters were killed on 911 and didn't have a chance because of extenuating circumstances.

what crime dod he actually do?If somebody is so stupid and sends money to a stranger because he he says so then whats the crime?

I believe it is called obtaining money by deception.

I thought that if "obtaining money by deception" is illegal, there would not be enough bar workers left to open many bars in Thailand. Then where would take the mom's prize water buffalo to the vets? Not to mention the many karaoke bar owners and some police officers might be behind bars too.

My new girls brother was badly injured riding his buffalo. B100,000 on the way

I sometimes carry a hoe in the tray of my pickup. Isn't that a weapon?

What about a my tire iron? I think either of these items could do a lot more damage than a pocket knife.

You should leave the hoe's in the bar, mate

Another one looses everything. When are the old men going to wake up?

Better to 'loose' it than give it to the old nag at home

That story doesn't even make sense.

He voluntarily spent every last satang he had, such that he couldn't even get a room?

Nonsense.

It must be a conspiracy right? Certainly a farang wouldn't do anything stupid and accept the blame. It must be that some Thai woman overwhelmed him with her superior intellect.

We all do stupid things and after farang spend much of their lives in a state of deprivation (of one sort of another) back in Farang Utopia, quite a few come unglued once they get to Thailand, but unless you're forced to do something at gunpoint, learn to live with the consequences of your own behavior.

"That story doesn't even make sense"

The story makes perfect sense in the context of the real world, as opposed to the fantasy world where farang must be the victims of nefarious Thais who outwit them ... well the "outwitting" part is probably true more often than not.

'back in Farang Utopia' ... they are so glad to see the back of YOU.

Hey Lostmebike - I found your bike ... and the seat was really really happy. :-) Nice photo ! 555

Yeah, I don't feel sorry for the old dudes back home who sit around dark bars drinking and smoking cigs one after another. A great grandmother appears in the bar and poor old guys fall all over themselves trying to woo her. Yep, the monkeys are quite comfortable in their 'cages' dying a slow death.
