Sounds like one of those stories where someone has been sexually abused and confides in someone, who then starts to sexually abuse them as well.

A Thai scams a foreigner so the Thai police try to downplay it so the Thai can get away with the scam?

I don't. It's not like I'm looking down on them. It's just the way things are.

This is actually quite true. People often go on about the police like they're the ones who are letting the Thai people down, but it's fairly clear that Thais are fairly supportive of their hands off approach. Thais seem to break the rules all the time, and support weak enforcement while criticising heavy handed enforcement.

Sadly there's no limit to the level some trolls will sink to, even defending reckless drivers.

Plus actual enforcement of the road rules.

Probably turned them down.

If you enjoy the hug, is it pointless?

I understand it perfectly. You appear to not understand, and, in my opinion, appear to be showing bias against a foreigner and in favour of a Thai, since it seems like the Thai is in the wrong. As you do in your earlier comments. Hence I asked whether you would have any insult for the Thai, once you found out that he not only started it, but had friends with him, used a weapon, and called for armed backup. Otherwise, it comes across that you are raging against a foreign person simply for the fact that they are foreign.

From page two: "21 August, a 47 year old vendor who witnessed the entire event, recounted to reporters, that during the time of the incident, the traffic was heavily congested. She noticed a black, four-door pickup truck waiting in the jam when a group of teenagers on a motorcycle approached and began knocking on the pickup's window, trying to force the driver out of the vehicle. The driver of the pickup truck attempted drive away and flee, but one of the teenagers got off the motorcycle, armed with a metal rod, and opened the truck's door. The teenager then stabbed the driver, who was a foreigner, leading to a struggle as the driver fought back in self-defense. The event, captured on video, left the vendor frightened. She immediately called for nearby residents to intervene and quickly contacted the police." Maybe the Thai guy wanted to attack the foreigner with a weapon, so he did.

Sounds it was the Thais that started it. Any insults for them?

They saw their chance and took it. Can't really fault them for it. 🤷‍♂️

Nice that she did that for a foreigner.

He won the fight. It was the cowardly stabbing that he wasn't expecting.

"I believed my life was in danger."

Shameless.

Some people have nothing to live for and are purely fuelled by hate. The only way they can have any interaction with the world is to harass people. Sad.

You already replied to this message yesterday... 🤔

I haven't seen the video. I was assuming that what was being reported was accurate. 🤷‍♂️ It does sound premeditated in that case. 🫡 🙏

"What Harris looks like now will shock you..."

"How Trump is leading polls with this one weird trick..."

Getting them ready for the outside This should really be getting more attention. That's these students out of the university and potentially facing criminal charges. This secret society type stuff is way too common in Thailand.

That doesn't mean that the stabbing or killing was premeditated. (It doesn't actually prove that the attack was premeditated.) He could have gone there to confront her with the item, then become enraged upon seeing her and then made the decision to attack. Likewise with the knife, he could have had it for another reason, then used it once his rage increased. Very hard to prove something is premeditated.

No. If he always carried a knife, or had the knife for another reason, then it wasn't premeditated.

It absolutely is not, as I have clearly pointed out.
