  1. 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.
  2. A little over simplified, that's not anywhere near how it could work.
  3. I doubt that any 'so called' communist country would have any sympathy with transgenders or gays in general, just the opposite in fact. Call it what it is, 'woke' madness.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
  7. perpetrator, the guilty party, the doer of the misdeed, he who will be punished for his crime.
  8. Yeah well you know what, I was referring to the UK but I don't really give a $hit
  9. 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.
  10. See what money can do in a democratic country.
  11. I thought you wanted to set him on fire, make your mind up.
  12. They died before anyone came forward to complain.
  13. 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.
  14. The insurance company wasn't to blame, they immediately confirmed they would pay, it was the American money grabbing ideology of the hospital that wanted an assurance from the German embassy first before they started treatment which caused the delay.
  15. I don't think one would legally be able to discriminate.
  16. How would that work, get an unemployed salesman in NY with family and move him hundreds of miles out to the country to plant potatoes, get an undergraduate just finished studying to pick apples?
  17. Who are sophisticated enough to appreciate ageless classical music instead of noise.
  18. She gave him the verbal finger and he gave her a physical reply.
  19. I bet the farmers aren't happy, they might have to pay a living wage to Americans, providing they can find anybody to do the work, will also increase the price of food but that would go hand in hand with Trumps tariff policies.
  20. Infantile, that'll teach her not to do it again. The courts administer justice not revenge.
