    Makes.  I am an occasional plinker and sports shooter in Thailand. This kind of scenario used to be a recurring nightmare.  I also would never take a bag that has been to the range on a trip or wear range shoes. Just an empty cartridge case flying into your bag unnoticed is enough to get you arrested in most places.  

    Leave your case closed when you’re at the shooting bench. That way empty shells flying out of your weapon won’t go flying into your case.  Good idea to put your case on the opposite side from the side the shells fly out also. Double check everything before you leave the range.

    He's lucky he wasn't in Singapore. One live round will get you seven years in jail, It's  mandatory.

    I was leaving the army range at Nee Soon after a shooting competition and found a single round in my pocket. A Singaporean friend saw it and went white. He said chuck it out the window of the coach we were on, unless you want to spend the next seven years in jail!!

    I heard that in Singapore you get in deep doo doo even for spitting your chewed gum on the sidewalk.

    Lol. You know nothing about Thailand 

      Spent more than four months there. In cities, and in the the north west mountains.  Lots of karaoke bars in the cities.  But there were no Karaoke bars far back in the mountains in tribe villages….like the Lisu villages.   I might not know everything about Thailand.  I suspect you don’t know everything about Thailand also. 5555

    Go to Thai countryside and you'll find that many venues serve anybody regardless of their age. 

    In karaoke bars you'll find underage "servers" who are "happy" to sit with patrons and even will go to short-stay rooms with them.  

       There are karaoke bars in the countryside?  Are you sure?   I never get outside the cities.    
        Why would anyone have a karaoke bar out in the countryside? 
     Not enough customers out in the countryside.

  5. Well when I had the Sak Yant Gao Yord tattooed at the top of my back by a highly respected monk tattooist outside of Chiang Mai…. Yes, it was painful….perhaps because he is tattooing you right over your backbone vertebra. He was using Khem Sak…. A long brass or bronze rod with a double pointed spike in it.  It was all Thais there.  I was the only Farang. There with my Thai friends. 
      If I had known how painful it was going to be, I never would have started. First time I had a tattoo in my life, at age 61. 
       Crazy thing is….a few days later I wanted more.  Ended up with nine Sak Yant tattoos from the monk… with the prayers and blessings and sprinkling …..  I am a Buddhist also.  Having gone for Refuge in the Triple Gem and taken the Five Precepts with the head abbot and monks at a Khmer Krom Theravada Temple.

  6. It’s caused by the horrifying Global Warming/Climate Change/Climate Crisis with Sea Level Rise, and oceans becoming Acidic. Caused by western capitalist bourgeois society’s use of fossil fuels,

      Al Gore, Greta Thunberg, John Kerry, Barack Oboma, Joe Biden and A.O.C.,  and Leonardo DoCaprio and Klaus Schwab and the W.E.F.  and the U.N. warned us.   But we didn’t listen. 
         We still have lots of people who claim that climate is not changing and never changes. 
     They are DENIARS.

    Murder, eh? Not vegetarians, either, speaking of violating the precept.

      Obviously you have no understanding of Lord Buddha’s teaching and the teachings of Theravada Buddhism.  You are allowed to eat meat as long as it was not specifically killed for you. Vegetarianism and Veganism is an individual choice.   Perhaps a few sects of Mahayana Buddhism are strict vegetarians/Vegans.   Try going to Nepal and Tibet and see if Vajrayana Buddhists eat meat or not. 
       Buddha never forbade his followers to eat meat.
