Gun control does not work, let everyone carry a gun over there, then they can finish off themselves over time...
I agree that if the teachers had carried a gun, he might have stopped earlier, but who would stop the teachers if they went apeshit??
RIP to all the children...
Actually I don't agree with Snowflake. Australia has pretty tight gun control and we don't see anywhere near the number of killings that happen in the US. Sure the criminals still manage to get guns and murder some people but this will always happen in any society. I don't agree with the idea of everyone being armed on the chance that maybe they can shoot the crap out of offenders. It's just too depressing and scary to think every social interaction could end in death or serious injury.
I can understand the history of the US right to bear arms but I don't think people would ever rise up against a corrupt government. If you actually read the constitution, the Second Amendment was supposed to be for deterring tyrannical government; repelling invasion; suppressing insurrection; participating in law enforcement; enabling the people to organize a militia system. But seriously folks, when has that ever happened? Is it likely to ever happen? Back in the early days of the union (aka the wild west days) there was a high chance of the need for these things but seriously folks, in 2012 is that still valid? I think not. So if the underlying reason for the 2nd amendment rights are no longer valid then the 2nd amendment should be revoked or changed such that there are much more restrictions on guns. It's a sad fact of life that the NRA has too much political clout and that while they will tut-tut and say how horrible this is - they will fight tooth and nail against proper gun control.
To the families and friends of all concerned, I extend my sympathies. When you have healed from your loss, I encourage you to do something positive toward changing the US obsession with guns. Good luck Obama - you'll need it.

Since when has Germany and Switzerland been the same country, either you are German fro Germany or Swiss from Switzerland?
Read the article before posting - A Swiss guy from Switzerland reported a German guy from Germany - two people - two nationalities - two countries.
Oh come on! Do you really expect people to waste their time reading the stories before exposing their biased ignorance in posts?

It is disgusting to me that a person has 1 million baht of jewelry in a country with so much poverty.

Wow one every hours !!! That is 12 people every day or 4380 a year, and they call that an epidemic !!!! As a ratio of a Thai population of about 60 million, that is then 60,000,000 / 4380 or a 1 in 13698 chance of any one person catching it each year (and remember the population changes with births and deaths each year too). Hardly an epidemic surely. Also those that do catch HIV generally take far more risks than most of us (and no I do not just mean unprotected normal heterosexual sex) so a normal persons chance of catching HIV is extremely low and in fact far less than getting killed or maimed crossing a busy street here in Thailand or say riding a motorbike here.
Remember that the figure of one every hour is still massively a statistic that is biased heavily to gay sex and intravenous drug users. No I do not have the figures to hand so don't ask, nor the time to look it up to back that statement up, but I am pretty sure that is the case, so feel free to Google some hard facts from an objective and sensible site (no not say the highly biased and restrictive catholic church science laboratory site or whatever). So should we stop crossing the road or stop riding motorbikes which are far far more dangerous to our health, as well as stop unprotected normal hetero sex?? Sure if you do engage in gay sex or even hetero anal sex or inject drugs then sure you should really change your lifestyle and at least ensure you then take protection if you care about yourself. As for the majority of us then take care for sure but do not be frightened into not being able to have an enjoyable fulfilling sex life if say you are one of those who truly cannot use condoms. But scare mongering of a virus that is extremely very difficult to catch and highly unlikely for a normal person to catch should be considered in true honest perspective and not blown out of all reasonable proportions. So just use your head and if you can avoid taking unnecessary high risks of course.
Sure I know every case of HIV is a personal disaster and extremely sad for the poor souls who catch it, and indeed nobody deserves to catch such an infection, even a drug addict for goodness sake as they are still frail human beings like the rest of us. Be great when there is a vaccine against it that we can all get cheaply and of course when there is a total and affordable cure. No I am not advocating an orgy of unprotected sex (fun though that must be !!), but conversely if you are sensible and careful about your partners and like many who find protected sex unfulfilling or even impossible then this is no reason to lower your and your partners' enjoyment of pleasurable sex life. So if sex with a condom is perfectly okay for you and workable, then sure carry on using them as it makes perfect sense of course. However if you are like many and just cannot use condoms with any success then just be careful and use your head and either lead a life of abstinence from more than one partner sex or know and keep the level of risk to a very low and tolerably acceptable level for you and your partners.. If you do take even such a very very low risk then it is still of course possible to get infected, just always be aware of that but keep it in factual perspective and be aware that you should be far more concerned and put far more priority into carefully crossing the road or riding a motorbike here. Far far more risk of sexually transmitted Hepatitis than HIV too, but you CAN at least sensibly get vaccinated against that.
I heard from a knowledgeable STD senior doctor some 10 years ago that statistically if you had totally unprotected normal genital sex with a fully blown AIDS victim, it is so hard to get infected from normal hetero sex that it would take having such sex 1000 times on average for a male to catch HIV from such an infected woman or 500 times for a woman to catch it off of a fully infected male AIDS victim. But he responsibly added that it is purely a statistical average and it could happen the very first time of course, though you would or should generally know from all external signs if a person has full blown AIDS or not. If they have only HIV at that stage of their illness then you may not know that for sure, but then again the chances of getting infected from them with normal unprotected sex is then massively decreased to a much less than the average stated of once every 1000 (or 500) times.
So please no silly flaming as I am not being irresponsible or selfish or even stupid but just trying to present the facts in a completely open minded and honest way from all I have learned and deducted about this subject (though by no means an expert of course), and to try to put things into a less media sensationalistic perspective.. Sure HIV is a real factual problem and not a myth and something we should all be fully aware of and make our decisions accordingly and responsibly. But it is not anything like an epidemic as is sensationally claimed, even in Thailand, and indeed the published figures themselves do not add up to it being so. Sure even 1 person infected in a year is one too many of course and an intolerable disaster for that person's life. Positive feedback and factual comments to add to our communal real knowledge are welcomed,of course, but crappy self opinionated flaming will, as it should, just be rightfully ignored as always. This is NOT about morals and religions and myths but about facts and truth so lets sensibly keep it that way.
Finally. remember it is down to each person whether or not to take risks, and only for others to educate them on the unexaggerated true risks, not the over sensationalist rhetoric that we all have to endure, It takes both partners (or maybe more individuals if you like more adventurous sex
) to agree willingly to have unprotected sex, so it is entirely up to them to know and accept the risks. if you personally want to be remain virtually 100% safe and sure then that is rightfully down to you to decide to always use good protection, like a condom, and never have unprotected sex. That is your decision and yours alone to make such a judgement call, or not of course.Not sure what planet you are on but on Earth there are 24 hours in a day. So 24 hours x 365 days = 8760 per year.

On this page is the Chanel 9 story with video of the crash.
Interesting that many of the comments at the foot of the page are clearly of the view that Mr Keith, the Australian, was the main person at fault in this incident.

This is the best suggestion yet!!!!You clearly don't place much value on your time if you've taken the trouble to count these coins which amount to such a small amount.
Give them gradually away to beggars in and around town. Put a smile on their face and make a difference.
You may even feel better yourself.

My ex-wife's aunty used to read books all the time. She was found one morning dead in her chair with an open book on her lap. No-one reported that as news.

Very lazy policing which only promotes corruption and validates discrimination. Why not round up 50 drunk tourists, or 50 blue eyed men over 50years of age?

Apple is well known for copying the innovations of others and then taking out patents and then suing people who copy what they copied. Seriously, Apple is a marketing company rather than a truly innovative company.

Why is it ok for some radical Muslims to threaten and carry out death to non-Muslims and yet they cannot cope with their prophet being made fun of? What *profanity edited out* up religion it is. How can the Muslims be so brainwashed and so violent? Clearly they are a weak minded people. If the same were the case with radical christians or radical jews we would howl them down and run them out of town.

This policy is entirely consistent with Thailand's 51% ownership laws. Clearly if a fake is brought into Thailand then they cannot benefit from it. Come on people; you know how important it is that only Thai citizens benefit from "genuine reproductions"

Sincerely......the joker must be rewarded
Handcuffed he tries to explain in ukra-thai-english that it was really nothing more then his duty to get his girlfriend a drivers licence.
he was nothing more then fed up with paying the tickets( for his girlfriend and NOT getting arrested) and walking home every time.
The parade is disgusting and in no way justified by the offence committed.
The OP is about two guys, one is Russian and the other one Ukrainian. No girlfriend involved. Are you suggesting they are boyfriends? As much as I would like to interpret this into the OP, I can't.
onthemoon is yet another example of people who post comments with no clear understanding of the original story. There are a lot of retard farang who post on this board.

Why would anyone who has entered the country illegally go anywhere NEAR the cops or a government office where ID is a BIG DEAL? Two dummies.
I'm guessing he was not illegal per say. He just didn't have his passport with him so he was charged as such.

...per say... should be spelled "per se" it is a latin term not an English one and so the spelling is different.
By the way. Can anyone explain why whenever I quote a post it appears twice????

If killing them isn't a 100% deterrent then can you imagine just how bad things would be if they were only arrested and out doing it again with so many others? The Thai forests would be crawling with cambodians who have ruined the forests on their side of the border and want to do the same to Thailand. Idiots who knowingly cross international borders with the sole purpose to steal and armed to kill anyone who gets in their way have made a choice. Thailand thus has the choice between having forests or supporting stupid, greedy criminals. It is refreshing to see Thailand understands this situation and has the balls to make the difficult, though correct choice.

Seems to me your logic is a bit lacking. Since the loggers have not stopped trying. You are advocating the same policies applied to the people involved in the Drug Trade and Terrorism. Both of which are continuing to occur and it could be argued that the policy has increased the occurence of each.

hhiser does not appear to understand the drug trade issue. To suggest that the death penalty serves to increase traffic is absurd. Surely it is the money involved. Unless he is saying that the drug lemmings get a thrill from the prospect of death. What a stupid outlook. I agree with Canopy on the trees issue. If Cambodia wanted to, they could stop the illegal logging from Thai territory by supporting the pirates with some other forms of employment. If there were no death penalty then the trees would be rapidly taken and the jungles decimated.

Being pedantic, can one suffer a broken head?
Being pedantic, can one suffer a broken head?
You can break an arm and break a leg so why can a head not be broken? It is acceptable to not specify which bone(s) in the leg or arm are broken so why do we need to specify skull or jaw?

Do you people not read past the first sentence? Or maybe you just small minded people don't understand what the phrases mean?
It states "When all are caught, they will be charged with violating commercial law codes, the copyright code, trade mark code, criminal laws regarding adult pornography, tariff and revenue codes, and the food and drugs code. They will also be charged with selling unregistered drugs, and selling drugs without permission documents."
Clearly this is about the seizure of counterfeit product and unlicensed drugs and nothing to do with banning sex aids per se. This is something you would all expect, if not demand, to occur in any western country.
I am sure you all got so titillated by the image that your brains turned to mush and your dick started controlling you (again). If you owned the brands being ripped off you would be very happy indeed.
You guys need to stop the Thai bashing mentality that I see too often and use your brains occasionally.
Do counterfeit cocks have their own little brains ?

Please don't blame Thailand for the actions of a couple of cheap criminals.
Let's remember that a man in Sydney killed his brother and parents on the weekend. Don't forget what happened in the US and Norway recently too. We don't condemn those three countries, do we?

The Thai bashers conveniently forget what goes on in their own countries.

Despite reading on a number of sites that it is for tourist purposes as well as business, the only detailed information I can find relates only to Business visas - see the links below. On official Burmese Embassy sites in USA and Australia there is no recent information on the June 2012 changes.

Looking at the government's actions (inaction) to date I am sort of reminded of Nero fiddling while Rome burned..
Roman contributions include;
Architectural styles : the Roman were inspired by the Greeks. But they were the ones to use extensively the arch, mosaics and frescoes. They built the largest free-standing dome in the world until the 20th century (the Pantheon in Rome, 43m of diametre, or 1m wider than the Bruneleschi's Duomo in Firenze).
Aqueducts and viaducts merit a separate category. They were the ancestors of modern viaduct (suspension bridges, etc.). Aqueducts would bring drinkable water from hundreds of kilometres away and were designed with just the right inclination so that the water would not run too fast (and erode the stone), nor too slow (and evaporate or become muddy). Combined with canalisations and sewers, they enabled a city like Rome to sustain a population of over 1 million.
The Romans developed spectator sports beyond anything seen until then. The Greeks invented the Olympic Games (incl. stadiums), but the Romans gave us the idea of mass entertainment.
The Roman highways were so straight, plane and resistant that some are still used nowadays (e.g. Via Appia). Many modern European highways follow the old Roman highways, as they used the most direct route to connect cities (and most Roman cities still exist nowadays).
Wine-making was not invented by the Romans, but they planted so many vines throughout the empire, that they created a tradition in France, south-western Germany and Mediteranean countries lasting to this day. The world's greatest wines are direct heirs to Roman wines.
The Roman weren't the first to come up with central or floor heating or hot baths, but they certainly spread its used across the empire. Ironically, it is the Japanese who are fans of hot springs and baths nowadays, not the Europeans. But famous thermal springs still exist in Europe, and were especially popular in the 19th century. Some have Roman origins.
The Roman Senate was supposedly founded by Romulus 2756 years ago. The Republic is "only" 2514 years old, but was one of the oldest such system in the world, and one that deeply influenced modern democratic states. The Greek idea of "democracy" is probably further from the current "democratic" system than was the elitist Roman Republic (in fact, politicians nowadays are almost always the same few oligarchs, like in Roman times).
The Julian Calendar, name after its inventor (Gaius Julius "Caesar"), is almost identical to the modern Western calendar reformed by Pope Gregory 1600 years later, and still used by many national Orthodox churches. It has/had all the current months, which names all have meanings in Latin : January (from "Janus", god of the beginning of times), February (from "Februa" a Roman festival), March (from "Mars", the god of war), April (from "aprire" meaning "open", referring to the blossoming of spring), May (from "Maia", goddess of the fertility), June (from "Juno", goddess of women and marriage, hence the expression "June bride"), July (from Julius Caesar himself), August (from emperor Augustus), September ("7th", as March was the 1st month at the time, and September was thus the 7th month), October ("8th"), etc.
The Romans seem to have been the ones to introduce the system of 3-course meal (starter, main dish, desert), inherited by most Western cultures. Note that in India, China, Japan, etc. there is no such tradition.

Is this some typical Aussie thing, go on a short vacation and claim to be robbed during the stay?
Am I missing something here? On what basis do you brand all Aussies on the basis of one or two?
Are all your country's citizens as pure as the driven snow?

It seems we are idiots because we hold a different view from you? I would suggest you would be better off saying that we are insensitive for crying out too soon. But is it ever too soon to shout out about the immorality of allowing killing machines to be freely available to all who seek them? A personal attack is the hallmark of a person bereft of the ability to make a sound argument.
