Please post every time any president took credit for anything that wasn't positive. I won't hold my breath waiting.

I do not know enough of American politics to say if Truman tried to wriggle out of anything 'negative' ... but at least he made the point that he was ultimately responsible .... 

How about brain eating amoeba in the swamps for Florida ..... ????

UK, US & EU should combine their forces and create a "Certified non-Chinese" brand and laws that require any product to disclose the percentage of Chinese labor/materials. Then tax those 1000000%.

Better not get sick right now then .... I believe China makes 60% or 70% of all the worlds drugs ... And the bl....y Iphones are expensive enough as they are !!

I think Thai's have lost their collective minds over this virus.  Its mortality rate in under 50 year olds is very low and the country has contained it but you would think this is the black death descending on the country.  Thai's have for years lived with Malaria, Dengue Fever, HIV, massive road carnage, horrendous pollution..... and along comes a virus with a mortality rate about 2-5 times a bad flu season and the country is ready to destroy what little economy they have. 

Its the power of 'marketing' ... Fear of the unknown ......

Agree with the above, I dont think ive ever seen an aircon in Thailand with a heat function, much like all the cars they just dont have it. They might be around somewhere but I highly doubt it'll be worth it. 

 

If heat is a concern then getting space heaters for the times when really necessary, but they are electricity hogs.

 

IMO the best aircons are Mitsubishi Super Inverters, but pricy. 

Why not put on a jumper ... or extra blanket on the bed ... when its 'cold'

He has a "bachelor of science degree" but what is the subject is the degree?

 

Having a Degree is no sign of intelligence especially in South East Asia where a brown envelope will get you a PHD, driving licence, planning permission, murder charges dropped. It's meaningless. 

Not if it is from Singapore I think  ????.

Nothing new really.  The world did the same thing to Tibet.

Where is the oil in Tibet ?

My point is that I would not have felt 'in fear of my life' ...  if they kept walking past my house and not storming it ...

I have a feeling he knew exactly where he belongs. It was probably just shocking for him to realize how good he has it in America. That goes against what prevailing black culture has been telling him.

Hmmm do not mix .. Where you feel you 'belong' to were you 'want to be' ..

By implication of him wanting to be in America ... He may have felt quilt that his 'slave family' .. suffered .. so that he now can 'live in a great place' ....

No, the mob was already on private property once they broke through the gate. So you'll assume people who broke a gate to get onto your property are peaceful protesters and you'll be handing out business cards and winning hearts and minds, correct?

Yes ???? .... After having given them direction as I suggested earlier.

from the aerial photo shown earlier it looks like they walked past the house ... NOT up towards it.

Or he could have done what he did. It's his life and property, correct?

Yes its his right .... That is correct. Agree 100%

But if he had acted in a different way .... Then maybe it would have been a complete non event and everyone would have been happy ...  (and we on TV would not have had this to write about)

Or if the 'wild mob' had lynched them both .. burned down the house. Well then what they did was 'smart' ....  I guess we will never know ...  ????

No, a group of over a hundred angry people who bust into private property after weeks of riots and murder are not going to be “helped” especially when they are threatening people. 

Well would it not to some extend be fair to say that not EVERY demonstration have turned nasty and violent ? 

Demonstrators normally carry placards and shout.  Yes maybe they could have entered a better way to get to there location. It did not look like the demonstrator did trow anything at the house.  Who was threatening who ? The guy with the long distance microphone? I must admit when I did see that thing pointing at the woman I thought the bullets would start flying ...  ????

I get a kick out of plastic panels on desks and in front of counters. Does anyone understand even the basics of fluid dynamics (specifically aerodynamics)? 

Remarkable display of mass hysteria. 

I like this question ????

Your sick to think that’s normal, this is why Falangs are looked down upon here. Whores are whores, cum dumpsters that’s all they are. They are barely human and your stupid if you think any different.

Who are you to judge and take a 'moral high ground' ?  They are females who deserve the same respect as anyone else. The fact that they sell sexual services is up to them. How can you say they are 'barely human' ?  I assume in your book the people who pay for their services are also 'barely human' ?

Then you'd have to point them right back out of the gate they entered though and destroyed because you cant even get to the mayors mansion that way. 

Even more of a reason to help them .... no ?  Win 'harts and minds' ...  He could have handed our business cards in case anyone needed help if they got locked up.  On the Fox interview he said he was not a racist and frequently helped black people who got into trouble or was discriminated against ...  He could have had his rifle slung over his back.  Calm under pressure and all that ...

Most likely the police is involved already. Here is the wife of the police who run gambling and expensive loans, as they run the yaba business. Totally screwed

Off topic I know but I have often felt that Thailand in many ways are like the US during or just after the prohibition ... The hey days of corruption and other illegal activities needed to keep the wheels running in a well oiled machine ...

thank you everyone for the input, THE house and car were bought and built for the family (me, her and the child) so its no problem walking away from that its not an issue, she has no credit cards and the bank cards are all in my name and only amounts what I agree to transfer go in, her weekly allowance goes in from my bank every Friday . ( enough to live on with fuel for the car and be fairly comfortable). She was really sensible before and has totally changed to the point that she does not care also I think hormone problems aswell. I am constantly stressed over this situation and if it was not for the boy then I would not have an issue. I would be gone. thanks

Have you been registered as the legal father of the child ? You do not have to be married to do that. It will give you some level of leverage if you have to fight custody .... If you could. lets say 'prove' that she is unfit to be a mother ... Drinking / gambling / Prostitution ....
