Kim Jong Un was summoned to Beijing and had his fortune told by Xi - Q.E.D.
Agreed and why was that? Obama got a prize for ZERO but the whole peace prize thing is a farce look at Suu Kyi

Why does anyone think that Trump had anything to do with North Korea?
These types of events are put into play long before now. Nothing to do with him.
That's really silly. When trump came they were firing missiles now they walk across the demarcation? you think POTUS has nothing to do with that? come on be fair. I agree with other posters leave it a year and see what the real peace is, or is not.

If peace is really established then he and SK president might share it although I think the whole thing is a farce. Look at some of the other 'winners'. let's see if he actually gets the peace deal through, as much as I don't like him, if he does it's an outstanding achievement that other POTUS's failed in.

Just now, selftaopath said:McCain said, "... failing to uphold U.S. values by showering praise on international "tyrants," discrediting the media, ignoring human rights and demeaning refugees."
McCain is correct and could have gone further in that Swamp king is undermining U.S. institutions/ spitting on rule of law, lying to Americans and many more despicable and most likely illegal behavior. He is a disgrace to America. He will be remembered and maybe as the most hated man in history.... bar none.
Oh the Hyperbole! forget Mao, Stalin and Hitler and the Pol Pot's and even Lucifer Himself. President Trump eh?

It's typical. They can't defend Trump, so attack anyone who says anything about him. What McCain is saying is true. Very, very true.
Of course you would say that wouldn't you? guess you loved his pick for VP too? (an ardent supporter of Trump)

McCain self-serving as always and can't get over his disastrous run at the White House with his wonderful choice of VP Sarah Palin (good judgement there Sir). Respect his war service but he's been a lone maverick seeking attention ever since.

So out of million and millions of humans on the planet, you can only find 1 case of one single human being getting a disease (allergic) from a pigeon?
I don't know a single person who has been bitten by a pigeon tick or mite. The red blood mite can live on any bird and is more common on chickens.. so you would have to kill all birds to avoid it anyway. and all the chickens in the village too while you are at it. Your study says 'after REPEATED bites... to a PREDISPOSED person the ticks can cause an allergy... this is billions of one chance... less than people that have allergies to peanuts, eggs, and bee stings!
Another common myth is that pigeons droppings corrode buildings, but these droppings are NEITHER ACIDIC NOR ALKALINE and cannot corrode building materials. But pigeons are a convenient visible target for anyone who would rather pin the blame on them, rather than the sulphur dioxide of car exhausts and acid rain.
Feral pigeons are not as bad as a menace as feral dogs and cats. They don't bite people or maul children. They don't case cars, motorbikes. They are not noisy barking throughout the night. They don't kill other animals and destroy the natural wildlife like feral cats either. Domestic dogs and cats are more a disease threat the humans. Why are you not advocating destroying peoples pets too... as they are more dangerous?
You, like many people, have fallen for misinformation the pest control companies put out to scare people into giving them business (to control pigeons).
Well you are entitled to your view but to me feral pigeons are a menace, dirty and s**t everywhere. Not sure why you defend them so vigorously and they are in the same bag as feral dogs (much worse I grant you) and cats.
PS 'peoples pets' are NOT feral please do not deflect onto domesticated pets (or pigeons)

Thanks for the FACTS.
Feral pigeons live in almost every large city in the world. The feeding of pigeons by humans, deliberately or accidentally, allows the build‐up of large populations that can cause a variety of problems, primarily the fouling of buildings and monuments by their droppings. Excreta of wild birds are a well‐known source of pathogenic microorganisms that can cause infection in man. The most important ectoparasites of feral pigeons are the red blood mite, Dermanyssus gallinae, and the pigeon tick, Argas reflexus, both of which can migrate into human living space when they lose their natural hosts. The bites of the red blood mite are irritating but harmless, whereas the pigeon tick can cause severe health problems to predisposed persons. After repeated bites from A. reflexus, people can develop IgE‐mediated (type I) allergy, which in extreme situations may lead to life‐threatening symptoms of anaphylactic shock. So far, one fatality due to A. reflexusderiving from feral pigeons has been reported. In the case of parasitic infestations of humans, the source must be removed by excluding pigeons from further breeding and by disinfection of the environment of pigeon‐breeding sites.

I can find many academic articles on feral pigeons and they are a menace for a variety of reasons and health does not, I grant you, have to be top of the list. They are dirty and their acidic droppings destroy building. We are not talking domesticated pigeons here and feral pigeons are a menace as are feral dogs and cats.

They really are hypocrites and many would love to believe they would get arrested one day and jailed for the coup but it's extremely unlikely as Thais just don't have it in them. The elites control everything with an iron grip and ordinary Thais are just putty.

She looks early 50s? you late 60s? good luck to you both of you but my point stands and is the main reason farangs choose 20 years +++ difference. It's an exception if the ages are close when the guy is 50 up. All of my male friends, if married, are 20 and 30 years apart and I'm not saying there is anything wrong in that but let's not fool ourselves why that is. Young fruit is more tasty.

Thai women age badly.. So English age gracefully !!
Not always but as there is not much sun in Blighty they don't suffer as Thais do from that constant UV issue. I do think it's fair comment and Thai older ladies always seem to look grumpy for some reason.
BTW isn't this the main point why farangs choose 20+ years younger models? if it were not so why not choose someone near your own age? (yes there are exceptions, but rarely sighted, and those that I have met have met overseas and returned here).

Feral pigeons are 'flying rats' they carry diseases, there poo degrades buildings with it's acidic content. Why anyone thinks it's 'fun' to feed them is beyond me. The only good pigeon is a DEAD pigeon.

I am all for getting rid of criminal scum but uneasy about targeting blacks because of the colour of their skin. But such concerns will never trouble Thais as 'equal rights, discrimination etc' are outside of their mindset at least until the dinosaur present older generation die out.

and how old are you? as for the '40 looks 30' I doubt it Thais women age very badly but that aside if there is a 15 year age gap +++ then of course you are the secure option but not the fun option and she could well have fun 'on the side'. What do you expect if you marry someone obviously much, much younger? I'm not saying this WILL happen just that it could do... few drink... 30 something guy on the 'hunt'. You will probably never know. Thais aren't exactly 'ethically guided' now are they.

Thai police make up their salary (legally) in receiving 95% of the fine of the ticket issued. The money is pooled with other officers, from their station, who are likely to have office bound jobs. So really no need for the police to request tea money if they were to do their job and issue fines. I suppose by obtaining tea money they get to keep the lot instead of sharing.
The reason most of us pay is that we don't have to go to the Police Station. Anyway they are corrupt from the top down.

I'll defer to you on that one as I am ignorant of them organizationally and assumed they held the same mission. But as there IS a girl guides I just think it's stinks but so many things stink in the US these days we should not be surprised. Why isn't NFL open to women? tennis? soccer? for true equality merge them ALL.
