100% disagree. Legalising cannabis sent out a message to low-lifes that Thailand is a place where anything goes. So more low-lifes are now heading for Thailand. That's the point you're missing. As the article said: "Some feel the cannabis culture is attracting a different type of tourist, altering the country’s traditional charm"

If Palestinians had the military capabilities, Israel would've been wiped off the map long ago. You only pity Hamas / Palestinians because their military mite amounts to hanging from Jeeps waving guns around. I dread to think what the world would be like if Palestinians had real military power.

How can any trans women have any pride competing against real women? Marathons are broken down into categories, e.g. age, gender etc. etc. If the trans woman finishes high up in the women's category they've achieved absolutely nothing! Shameful.

I don't think it does, but then Amsterdam isn't in a tropical climate where these types can roam around shirtless in flip flops all night, plus Amsterdam nightlife is nowhere near as hedonistic. For a start the brasses are all behind shop windows.

How on Earth was a Palestinian pro-Hamas activist allowed to stay in the US for so long, and how on Earth was he one step away from becoming a US citizen?! Sounds like US officials put a stop to it in the nick of time. I wish the UK would do more of this.

Exactly right. So many people on here say "but cannabis relaxes you, you can't blame cannabis!" We all know this. But it's the message Thailand sent out to the world when they legalised cannabis. A message that says anything goes, and therefore attracts even more wronguns like the bloke in this story.

100% this. Scummy people who wouldn't have even considered Thailand in the past are now thinking if cannabis is allowed, Thailand must be somewhere I can get away with anything, let's go!

True racism in the UK had been more or less eradicated over the past few decades. The liberal left are doing their best to keep racism going by constantly demonising the white population. I think they're taking us backwards now by rekindling the hate between whites and ethnic minorities.

Those supporting this discrimination against white people - are you also campaigning for Farangs to be recruited into the Thai police force? Lots of expats in Thailand these days, so presumably you think they should be represented in the Thai police (how ridiculous does that sound). Or is it only your home countries that should entertain this nonsense?

*CG1 Blue takes notes then heads back down to the bar....

I'm with you there, it's been the same since I was a kid! Once I was out with a Thai lady and her friends. I'd had a major crush on for a long time. We were getting on great and I had high hopes. Later that evening she said let's all have a selfie. I warned her I don't look good in photos and she told me not to be silly, and went ahead and took it. She looked at the picture and let out a kind of disappointed 'hmmm'. Then her bestie looked and made the same noise. I didn't get much further with that one. I figured she'd rather date someone more photogenic / instagram friendly 🤷‍♂️😆

The only positive thing about this story is it provides further proof that the UK must leave the ECHR. A legal framework that encourages this sort of nonsensical action is not fit for purpose.

With that AN nickname it's pretty obvious what their agenda is

Somebody is desperately fishing for racism or any other kind of ism. I'm sure most people realised he meant leave Thailand and go back to the US

I see most of the lefties are staying out of this one. A racist trans 'woman' vs a black Christian transphobic. Picking a side must be sending them into meltdown!

So Christians embraced the Christmas tree and Muslims embraced FGM. Says a lot.

No matter what people say about how harmless weed is, the relaxation of drug laws was a huge pull for low lifes and trouble makers. It just sends out a message that it's a country where you can do anything you like, and that's a real attraction for scumbags like the one in the OP. Although he's probably on something like yaba. His behaviour is similar to the young Brit who died while being restrained a couple of weeks ago.

Anyone who watches that 2nd video above can be in no doubt the Brit was off his nut on something. He's running down the street screaming "hurry up you f ing c's" and then catches up with them and tries to get on the back of their bike! Then walks away to get a run up, and charges at them! We know he's from a decent background, and he's probably never had a fight in his life. Whatever he had taken must've flicked a switch. Looks like a Yaba episode to me. I don't think the Thais intentionally killed him. Such a sad end to what was probably a pretty ordinary and sensible life.

Might be because of the tens of thousands of women and children killed and injured? Might be because they have wrecked most houses, businesses etc.? Or it might be because they have destroyed or nearly destroyed all the hospitals? Maybe because they cut electricity and water supplies? Or maybe because they have restricted food and medical supplies? I think you would find that if Palestinians were doing this to Israel that the students would be protesting about that. You didn't answer my question. Stay focussed.

Why aren't students protesting about Hamas? If Palestinians are being forcibly ruled by Hamas, and if Palestinians don't support Hamas, where is the outrage about that? Unless of course the protestors are ok with Hamas and their human shield tactics, and Hamas' desire to wipe Israel off the map.

Have we been told the name of the British bloke who attacked the elderly man? I haven't seen it in any of the press releases. Maybe he's being protected...

Why do people keep commenting about a 'Thai couple' being the attackers? The attackers were a bloke from the UK and his Thai wife! People who don't read threads before commenting....🤦‍♂️

And the Brit had a choice at that moment. Go off and enjoy the rest of the night, or charge in like Rambo for a fight. Hopefully this was a lesson learned (finally, at 60+ years old!) and he won't end up getting killed another night as a result of his bad temper. He's probably been ruining people's nights with his temper tantrums for over 4 decades.

You're not in Kansas now Dorothy

You must be watching the wrong video. The security guy was backing off until the old fella came marching up thinking he was Rambo. He also backed off straight after the punch, unlike a lot of the security thugs we've seen in previous videos. I think this Sarawut showed both skills and restraint under the circumstances. I also can't see a kick to the groin - I wondered if that might have happened prior to the video recording.
