    Whilst tragic, I would suggest the bike rider didnt even look right, just straight ahead when the light changed.

     

    In my observation, many road users here have very poor ability to judge speed and distance of oncoming traffic. Alomost daily I have encountered cars and motorcycles pulling out way too soon or in the case of motorcycles not even looking right and just riding left as if there is no junction.

    When I first looked I too thought there was something under the back of the car.  But I think it is just the watermark placed on the photo.

    victim blaming?

    While ever Trump can hoodwink his not so smart followers, the Reps will follow him like sheep to keep those numbers. Enough people were smart enough to get out and vote him out of office, Joe Bidens performance over the next 4 years will determine where Trump and his sheep will end up!

    Let's hope the NY prosecutors can get their act together quickly and before DT persuades the Republican party to hand him the nominatation. A convicted felon is disqualified from Presidential office.

    I'm afraid that the body-count (no matter how high) will not make the UN take any action in the near future.

    It's like a nasty deja-vu for this beautiful country

    You are right - this is the Tatmadaw reverting to type. When I was working in Myanmar (Burma) in the early seventies the Tatmadaw killed up to 600 students protecting the body of ex- UN Secretary General U Thant. The had kidnapped the body and it was lying in state in the university when the military opened fire.

    I just don´t know here. I would like to hear this and see a video of it happening. We are very well aware of how it looks on the government meeting here in Thailand. People from different parties is sitting in their smartphones, staring down the floor or actually talking to eachother or sleeping during another person is up speaking. It that is what happened I agree totally with the guy.

     

    If he walked out in anger becasue people didn´t agree with him and thried to talk back to him, than he is his usual charming self that just can´t hack it in society.

    Like I say, we need a video to make a fair judgement. Not like all poster before me, just judging because they want to be in the clique that hates.

    Your first paragraph is an accurate description of the british House of Lords in session!
