describing an Irish gynecologist as a 'pussy prying paddy' would be considered rude but not inciting riot whereas, 'Punch a murf in the turf' could be called inciting violence. Why can one say, 'sink the Bismark' but not 'sink the Muslims', the Jury is still out on that one.

We live in a village in Isaan. My son speaks fluent English because I've only ever spoken English to him since his birth. At school he teaches his class English instead of the teacher, the teacher became embarrassed teaching after acknowledging my son's proficiency, I met him once, he introduced himself as "I am a teacher" I thought he said "I am a T=shirt". All my son's online friends have been arranged into a group chat which can get noisy at times, I once asked him why he can't just watch porn like any other 17 year old, he looked at me disapprovingly and moved his microphone closer, I'm a bad papa.

My 17 year old son has an impressive array of technical accessories attached to his computer and when not at school spends all his time in his room speaking English with a group of international friends met on gaming sites from Finland to Singapore, I often hear him speaking with them at 2 AM, I've told him to get more sleep because of school but since he is a straight A student I've run out of arguments. As his mother said, better like this than having him going around with juveniles on their bikes, drinking and causing misshieve.

Obviously it's a serious criminal offence and he will be dealt with by the courts, but it doesn't deserve the death penalty or any other medieval punishment, which some posters think appropriate, nor will the lady, who seems quite resolute, suffer psychological harm. It may be the perpetrators first visit to Pattaya and he got the wrong idea about the availability of women here.

Thai worker abandoned in Israel after hospital discharge - video
soalbundy replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Not unlike many other embassies, they don't want to be saddled with the cost and later struggle to recoup the money. Really his employer should be the one helping but I suppose this is a migrant worker/ employer relationship with few legal responsibilities on the employers part especially if he wasn't being treated for a work accident, sounds more like a stroke. -

Nobody goes through life without experiencing frightening situations, it is as it is, they are to be mastered, not exaggerated. She appeared self assured enough to demand that he be caught, as he has been and will go through due process and be punished. Yes I have a daughter and also stepdaughters, one of whom experienced an uncalled for slapping as a teenager and so suffered physical harm as well as fear while she was a member of my household (She was in my care since she was a small child and is now a mother herself). I handled it without drama and reported the matter to the police, they considered it a family matter and refused to do anything until I threatened them with a lawyer accusing them of dereliction of duty, he had to pay her 10,000 Baht compensation and the matter was settled. Although not on the best of terms they still have superficial contact.

Certainly more appropriate than burning him alive. My point was that yes, he frightened her and touched her inappropriately but he didn't physically harm her and she was able to leave the lift to seek help. There is always a lot of extreme self righteous judgement in such cases, faux shock horror which ought to be contested, not that it matters what we write at all.

Is this the "Little Surprise" of 47 and the Speaker?
soalbundy replied to Walker88's topic in Political Soapbox
Ones who don't like Ma's apple pie, white picket fences and the American flag, yes it's all very important of course.....except it isn't. It's amusing to see supporters of Dems and the GOP get so passionate and upset as if decisions made are going to cause the world to split apart, remember everything is temporary. Think back to all your decisions and disasters in your past, all so important, and yet no matter what happened, here you still are worrying about the next batch of problems, it's all bullocks. -

So same,same but different. Don't get hung up on democracy, it's just another name for mob rule and the mob is easily led, if you have 10 road sweepers and one professor of economics you'll have a road sweeper as your Finanz minister. -

Whatever, throughout history there has always been a mass peoples migration due to wars or famine and it couldn't be stopped, even ancient Rome couldn't stop it with violence, the Angles, Jutes and Saxons wandert into Britain as did the so called Vikings which gave way to Dane law in Northern and Eastern England in the 9th century, Scots have a similar genetic make up as the Scandinavians while the English genetics have more in common with the Germans than the Welsh. As more parts of the world become unlivable due to poverty, war and/or climate change there will be an unstoppable human wave during this and the next century moving to more amenable climates. The Zulus caused mass migration in Africa during the last 200 hundred years due to their own territorial expansion so this is nothing new. As the Western demographics continue to be top heavy with old people this can be accommodated and will be, even Japan is now considering immigration as their numbers dwindle.
