I did nothing really, didn't even see the police the first month, my misses only went to the police station to file the police report needed for my government minimum insurance to get my hospital bill paid. The police took the report and ran with it. Good on them.... Your experience also show's, contrary to popular myth, that the farang isn't always in the wrong (far from it in my experience).

Was the 'rescue' operation so swift it prevented impact or something ????? I'll have a guess... 'never rode a motorcycle in his life before'.... .... more possible that he had never ridden before and had no idea what he was doing... Likely unlicensed and rented illegally - that crack-down they announced a few months back didn't last, as if it was ever expected it would !!!... This will now cost him - the bike is waterlogged... how much is a brand new Honda Click these days ?

False rubbish - You are referring to Matt Hancock taking the Pfizer/BioNTech Vaccine Lived on TV in April 2021... there is no evidence whatsoever to suggest fakery with a saline solution.... Completely non-sensible rubbish... total tosh... none of what you write has any accuracy whatsoever... you just meynder through a paragraph with anti-vax sentiment without actually making any real point. Children caught Covid-19....

Just when the world is going man and chaos is all ensuing and surrounding... .... We have this story to remind us... its ok, everything is still normal...

Thank-you for proving my point with far greater certainty than I did... Thank-you once again... you are proving my point so very well..... Brilliant... Again... thank-you !!!... You're doing such a good job of this...

Never had that problem when I was a hit and run victim. The police traced him using CCTV, and charged him, 18 months from hit to end of court case. I was just a witness, no lawyer, no action on my part beyond form filling at their request. Did you have to file or push for any charges to be filed ? He wasn't a hi-so - he was just a uni professor.

Fair enough - done to death in other threads already. As for "How much MORE evidence do we need to prove beyond doubt that the mRNA Covid-19 shots kill"... None, no more evidence is needed to answer that simple question... Its with absolute certainty that the Covid-19 mRNA vaccines have been the direct cause of some deaths.... There is no substance on earth that someone doesn't have an allergy to etc ... there are even people who have allergy to water, sunlight etc... The important question is two fold I would say: 1) Are the Covid-19 mRNA vaccines are more dangerous than regular Covid-19 vaccines, disproportionately so compared to their efficacy. 2) Are Covid-19 mRNA vaccines are more dangerous and more harmful than than can be reasonably expected when compared to any other vaccines taken throughout the past half a century ?

By age 7, a Belgian child born in 1957 would likely have received the following vaccines: - Smallpox - Diphtheria - Tetanus - Pertussis (whooping cough) - Polio That you ask for proof of what vaccines you took as a child were of benefit is a masterclass in argumentative incompetence, the proof is all around you, everywhere.... but you dismiss it. You may as well post another meme.

..... A well-formulated meme? Please. Memes aren’t “well-formulated” - they’re bite-sized junk food for the intellectually lazy, designed to be swallowed whole by those incapable of discussion, nuance or real thought.... This just highlights your sole aim is not to inform, but to spread ignorance and nothing else...

Thank-you for proving my point with far greater certainty than I did... Thank-you once again... you are proving my point so very well..... None are diseases. Nor is Rabies IMO.

It shouldn't... Thats the whole point of these 'currency cards'... the whole idea surrounding them is to 'spend like a local'... So... any bank taking fee's is doing so wrongly....

If you've sunk to posting ill-informed memes scraped from some Facebook anti-vax cesspit, you've already disqualified yourself from any conversation that aspires to be intelligent. Don’t pretend you're engaging in debate – you're not. You’ve abandoned reason the moment you hit “share" and posted a dumb word-meme... It’s clear you're not here to discuss. You're here to flood this sub-forum with noise, rhetoric, and tired anti-vax propaganda. You're not seeking truth – you're pushing an agenda to infect discourse with weaponised ignorance, dressed up as conviction.

Thanks, I was told this year ago when I looked into it. Here's a modified TriCity from Ozimoto... Looks the beans...

Agreed, also because they ran away before testing, it should be automatically assumed the driver was criminally intoxicated and face the highest possible penalty 100% agree.... The law on this is utterly moronic - as long as the 'report' within 24 hours, they won't be charged with DUI... is despicably enabling...

It’s excellent to see this gain traction on social media, and I can only hope it leads to real consequences and serious charges. But let’s not kid ourselves - in Thailand, the Protected continue to shield the Protected. This will be dragged out, diluted, and ultimately dismissed, as someone with the right connections, influence, or wealth simply sidesteps justice for their vile, deadly actions - we've seen this on 'wash and repeat' for decades.... And yet, time and again, we see people slammed for “bringing Thailand’s reputation into disrepute” over petty missteps or foolish behaviour. The real disgrace? The obscene protection afforded to these verminous cretins. That is what truly tarnishes the nation’s reputation....

I really would welcome the opportunity to see you put this to the test... Unvaccinated - stay in an area known for SmallPox, Measles, Polio, H1N1 influenza, Ebola, Marburg outbreaks.... ... and also Yersinia pestis bacteria, tuberculosis... Vibrio cholerae, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Clostridium botulinum... scratch yourself and contract Clostridium tetani, or get bitten by a rabid dog..... And do so... without any medicine whatsoever... remember as you keep bleeding.... 'nature has the answers'....

Thank-you for proving my point with far greater certainty than I did...

There goes Malcy getting his brain and stomach mixed up...

Of course - foreigners... If locals.... they'd be at a love motel !!! But not Thai, because Thai's would not bring the reputation of Thailand into disrepute like that !!!...

As you most certainly are...see I can also be rude..now will we both go cry in the corner ? A funny and witty retort.... Touché.... ... That actually took some intelligent thought - Fair play.

It has already been reported that some check-in agents have been (mistakenly) asking for them so safer to have it available and avoid any hassle. Sure.. no harm in that... I do it in the 'departure lounge' while hanging around at the airport... but really, it can just as easily be done at home the night before etc... no big deal whatsoever.... And if I forget, I can fill out the TDAC on arrival. It really is a non-issue - of all the Thai bureaucratic online thingy's... this seems to be the only one professionally rolled out that doesn't have major flaws. And... if a check-in agent requests this (mistakenly) its ok to tell them the are wrong...

Well, let’s be honest - he’s clearly anti-vax bonkers, and as you mentioned Bluesphinx and Redphoenix aren’t exactly dissimilar names either... That said, we’re talking about someone posting deep within a sub-forum of a sub-forum, essentially shouting into a void. And frankly, the more he posts, the more unhinged and neurotic the anti-vaccination movement begins to appear. I’ve yet to see a single post from him that shows even a flicker of contextual awareness or intellectual balance. But here’s the line I won’t cross: I do not support silencing posts like his. We all have a responsibility to post with intellectual integrity - especially when dealing with public health topics - but as misguided as his contributions may be, the greater danger lies in censorship.

And he should be banned for good Yes, I do believe he’s deranged and spreading misinformation - but unfortunately, that’s the world we live in now: a digital age where delusional fruitcakes have access to mass media and can spread whatever nonsense they like. However, banning him outright would be a blow to free speech, and in many ways, that’s more dangerous than the recycled anti-vax drivel Red posts in this sub-forum. We have the ability to read it, ignore it, or better yet, call it out for what it is - misinformation, lazily copied and pasted without nuance or understanding. Different users here have different styles: some, like Rumak, lash out when they're clearly outclassed in discussion; others, like Red, just keep hammering away with repetitive content regardless of how often it's debunked. Then there’s Stiddle, whose posts are so absurd they’re only worth engaging with on occasion. And of course, there's Johng, whose contributions rarely rise above sheer idiocy - as shown yet again above. But I don't want to overlook the value of this sub-forum. It has also become a platform for thoughtful, informed debate, with contributors like Rattlesnake bringing well-articulated perspectives - even if, ironically, he’s on the anti-vax side. What’s most surprising is that someone of such clear intelligence holds that position at all. He stands out as the only anti-vaxxer here who isn’t neurotic, unhinged, or completely off the rails. His arguments, at the very least, warrant consideration - if only to sharpen our own - we should all be challenged.

The question is why he wasted his time writing the OP. He doesn't write it... he just copies and pastes it from anti-vax sites and floods this sub-section of the forum... There's nothing wrong with that - I think all voices should be heard and this sub-forum is 'out of the way' and specifically placed for such discussions.

It’s important to recognise a fundamental truth: everything can be harmful to someone. Some individuals are allergic to water, others react to something as benign as orange juice. Even slippers, yes, slippers, can be deadly. In fact, a study examining data from 2000 to 2020 found that around 71,000 slipper-related lower limb injuries were treated in U.S. emergency departments. This is precisely the issue with many discussions around vaccines. There are rare but genuine risks, such as allergic reactions or conditions like vaccine-induced thrombocytopenia (VITT). These risks are real and should not be dismissed - but they must be understood in context and this is something anti-vaxxers fail to do, deliberately so IMO. What’s consistently absent in anti-vaccination arguments is perspective, a complete lack of it.... Risks are inflated, stripped of statistical grounding, and presented as universal threats. This is particularly evident in the dramatic references to conditions like pericarditis and myocarditis. Yet, the post above (also quoted below) fails to acknowledge that these same conditions can also result from viral infections. In short, the conversation needs balance the Anti-vaxxers deliberately avoid. Once again (from the above quote) what’s sorely missing from the conversation is perspective. The prevalence of pericarditis and myocarditis in individuals who contract COVID-19 or even influenza is vastly higher than the incidence of such conditions following vaccination. That’s not to deny that vaccine-induced cases occur - because they do - but anti-vaccination narratives consistently ignore this crucial context. If any of us have ever had a serious case of influenza, it’s highly likely that we experienced some degree of pericardial or myocardial inflammation, whether we were aware of it or not. These are not conditions exclusive to vaccines - they’re common complications of viral infections, and in many cases, far more severe. The anti-vaxx crowd often cites these adverse events as if they are unique to vaccines, completely overlooking that the diseases themselves pose a much greater risk. It's a textbook example of cherry-picking data without proportionality, and it undermines meaningful, evidence-based discussion.
