  1. Racists! There was a country that allowed almost unlimited immigration from people of all colors and faiths. It became the greatest economic engine the world has ever known. These immigrants brought hope and innovation and fresh ideas which transformed this nation.
    They became the middle class. They became taxpayers, started businesses and became the leaders of the free world. They called this place The United States of America. Not always right, not always fair, but we try. It is still a sanctuary. And we strive to be better. We realize the future is in the hands of these refugees. They can become outcasts, drain your taxes and be enemy or they can become the taxpayers starting businesses and funding your pension. Think it out.
    You people think scared and small. Shame on you.

  2. The $100 NFL Game Pass, that allowed live broadcast of your favorite NFL team subscription has changed.

    It is now $200 and the games won't be shown live. I was insulted. They certainly don't want to spread their business to expats.

  3. I also moved from US to avoid gun violence. The majority of gun violence here is gang related, kids shooting kids. Random acts at the mall or movies or schools are almost unheard of. The only problem is that statistically the dangers are a tie with all the horrible drivers here.

    The deciding factor as an American is quality of life which is better here due to weather, food and above all affordable quality healthcare.

  4. This should go National on TV and newspapers to protect others from this and CTH and Police should come forward to try to regain their honor. This won't help bring tourists to Thailand. This could have gone violent in an instant.

  5. A foreign nations oil passing through America to sell to yet another foreign nation? Risking fresh water supplies to millions with a technology that produces 6,000 leaks a year with exiting pipelines for a few thousand jobs?

    Thank you Mr. Obama

  6. My home sale in USA will be exempt from capital gains taxes and only half the profit will be sent here to buy the property adjacent to the current property I own.

    If I transfer the money into my Thai wife's account, is she liable for Thai taxes? The account in Thailand is in her maiden name as Thai citizen but will be transferred from our joint US account with her married name, any problem there? And is it necessary to register our 13 year marriage in Thailand?

  7. Let's see. A year after meeting her as an18 year old massage girl on the beach. I met her again and was allowed to talk to her by her protective older sister. After 3 weeks of asking her out, she finally agreed and we went to dinner with a chaperone. She told me she had never been alone in a room with a man. After 10 more days we agreed to marry pending parental approval and the negotiations of dowry were settled. I held her hand briefly before I departed for another year to America. Upon returning I went to her village in Burirum and married. After another 3 weeks we finally were able to consummate the marriage due to sizes and tolerances. We went back to the USA and married again. The next year we returned to Thailand and had yet another wedding in her village.

    14 years later I am retired, she has given me a wonderful life, gave me a son, now 8 and we are almost inseparable and my very best friend.

    The non bar girls just take more work and patience to date.
