So sorry. Why no medical care for this old man.

Who is the Mafia King who controls the "taxi" vests at every corner? I've heard numbers such as 85,000 Baht. There is a limit to number of drivers per location. As to the action/inaction of the police, a few well aimed shots to legs might well quell the boys enthusiasm. A murder charge should be made in the case of the "accidental" bullet.

The Thai police are controlled by bigger Thai police crooks. This is known from the lowest private to the highest Generals. Thai culture, give me a break. Other than the Royal parades. etc. Thai culture is what ever the STREET says it is. I, nor my family go to many areas of Bangkok and none of Pattaya. I feel sorry for the good police officers trying to do a good job who are STEPPED on when they do..

Thai "Lady Boys" are biologically males, ergo potential SOLDIERS. Round them up, send to basic training then let them see just how friendly their fellow soldiers can be or housemaids for the Admirals/General's wives.

The smug face on this weapons dealer say's it all. Thai boys without supervision or studies to keep them occupied, very little or no parental authority. I attended a Catholic school from 1st thru 12th grades, took the summer off, joined the Air Force enlisted, night school to degree then commission, did 20 years plus 21 days. Didn't have time to even think about fighting with classmates other than a 6th grade slap up and a note to the parents resulted in heavy restrictions at home. When I see the Thai boys with their knives and pipes I see killers, not students.

Can't relocate Cobras far enough to suite me.

How can you be "seated in front of the toilet" yet found hanged in the toilet?  Bad writer of death scene.

I enjoy seeing the "do gooders" crying for mercy. I agree it's time to re-publish the pictures of those innocent victims slaughtered while Manson's children ran around killing with glee. Putting off death penalties is nothing more than a lawyers cash cow. Review the case with same judge and limit appeals to 2 times.

When youse gotsta go, youse botsta go.

So typical of the Thai male coddled by their Mothers from birth. Oh, by the way, "man" in white shirt is flipping "his" wrist, that's sure to stop the assault. Thai Police not very interested, they are also Mommies boys.

So many "contributors" get off subject and/or have no idea of which they pontificate. An Officer is trained to call for "back up" and THEN proceed against the threat. ......And Can't you leave the President of the United States out of your feeble mind,

Former Special Agent

Trump is liked for his habit of slapping back. Unlike Obama who majored in ass kissing and giving US  money to Muslim terrorists. He is the leader of the most powerful nation in the world, why should he take crap from his lessers. As for Merkel, she is what she is, an ex-American spoiled brat who causes Her Majesty nightmares. 

I notice that in most cases when a suspect is apprehended in Thailand, the handcuffs are placed on the hands of the suspect in front of them versus behind their backs. As a former Special Agent in the Air Force. the actual apprehension/taking charge of the suspect was affected by the Military Police. In almost all cases the suspect's hands are cuffed behind their backs, why you may ask? Hands cuffed in front provide the suspect with a weapon, put the hands together, raise hands above the head and bring down on the head of the arresting officer, hard to do if cuffed in the back.

oooooocHA

If truth is available, just how many of these illegally modified bikes are crushed? What exactly happens to all those bikes? Do Police sell them back to the riders? Just curious, not in the market for a modified bike.

When I was still driving, my wife told me never to sound my horn at a Thai driver, regardless of how stupid their actions were. I could very well expect a nasty confrontation. Never happened to me as I never disobey my wife but I've read of so many incidents where a "beep-beep" can and does lead immature Thai men into a fit of anger. My driver rarely "beeps" only then when it's a gross and dangerous move on idiot driver's part. Is this the "my Mommy protects me from any harm" syndrome?

I used to enjoy Thai massages but its a waste of money since prostate cancer acted upon the necessary components.

It isn't just that corruption exists in Thailand, it's that the corruption exists at all levels. How can the Generals and their HISO wives dress as they do, have the billion baht homes, multi million baht cars, spoiled rotten children drugging it up in foreign schools who, given time, will come home and take over the corrupted wealth of their parents. Esnotmybusnesman.

Many years ago (1981) a sewage pipe emptied directly into Jomtien Beach at the entrance to Walking Street, it was human waste and the Japanese didn't seem to care.

Very poor security. The man can now go around bragging that "I drop kicked Arnold Schwarzeneggar" and he wasn't that tough. Put the a-hole in the can for a year or so for assault.

I'm a retired AF Officer and get 100% coverage if I'm hospitalized, Doctor care plus medication 100% if for my heart. Non heart related care and care for my wife is handled under Tri-care where we pay 75%. We use Praram 9 Hospital and they accept 25% payment and bill Tri-Care for the balance. As an old codger I try to take care of myself. At 79 I do not run, play, or chase animals of any variety. I'm surprised I've made it to 79 and happy to be here. If you don't have coverage, work on getting basic coverage.

When you were delivered from your Mother's womb and had a little Penis, you are a boy, if you had a vagina, you are a girl. Everything after that is other people screwing with your mind. I've got little sympathy for your inability to adjust to your given body, but only the FREAKS and FUd school administrators will let a 280 lb boy who "IDENTIFIES" as a girl, engage in sports activities as a girl. You may be fud up but so are your parents and counselors who encouraged you to believe you are what you are not.

Poor Donald, works for free, puts in unbelievable work hours, fights the entrenched swamp of long time gators, and he still can't get a break. Leave Trump alone and lets start nailing $170,000 a year MILLIONAIRES. Give this man a break. We were lucky to still have a country after 8 years of OBUMMER.

I am 79 years young and have had a reasonable number of services provided by excellent Thai Hospitals and Doctors; Double by-pass; Prostate cancer treatment @ Kings Hospital; regular heart care, excellent care when needed. I have 100% coverage for heart work; (VA) and TRI-CARE 75 % coverage for non-heart care. 20 years USAF retiree. Tri-care for wife also.
