"And we'll do it by only targeting tourists for licence infringement in areas such as Chiang Mai, Pattaya and Phuket while we let 10 year old Thais with no helmets ride their siblings around"

I would argue in many cases sexual offending against children is probably a more severe crime than murder. It can be perpetrated against the same victim more than once, it can be perpetrated against more than one victim, it is generally calculated, destroys a kids innocence (causing ongoing issues such as self harm, drug abuse etc) and is perpetrated against the most vulnerable in society.
I'm not a huge fan of capital punishment for murder, but I am for many repeat kiddy fiddlers

Just say that your deceased friend gave it to you but you can't remember his name. I hear that's a watertight excuse in such matters.

Increase of crapping and pissing in the streets (and trains) expected to be around 1000% year on year.

I'd probably still rub one out to it, to be honest.

I've no doubt that it's part propaganda with a few facts thrown in. I don't think the average punter on here's opinions or observation are any more reliable, given the litmus test for many posters on here seems to be that if there aren't as many sex-tourists on sois 6, 7 and 8 in Pattaya (ignoring how busy other tourist areas are) then Thai tourism must surely be dying.

Gotta laugh at that rationale. Their family members are suspected of planting explosive devices which could kill or maim anyone unlucky enough to be in the immediate vicinity and they're bleating about concern for human rights.

Statistically speaking their foreign nationals are exponentially more likely to come to harm by way of a road accident than any explosion. Hope they warned them of that, too

How intimidating to be interrogated by a cop drinking a frappuccino ????
You might be surprised to learn that outside of the movies you watch, "interrogations" (read: Police interviews) aren't intended to be intimidating.

Anyone surprised? They go up using cheap materials and cheap labour so they deteriorate real quickly. I have friends who are in condos only a few years old that leak, the plaster is cracking and things are stopping working. Not an investment I'd be keen to make. Especially with many condo buildings forbidding AirBnB as a form of income.

So if Thailand decided to ban all English signs, menus and other useful things for farang, you wouldn't complain that it's a hostile act against farang by the government?

Cue the comments from some of the Aussie and Brit expats hoping their countries do the same while ignoring the irony that most of them rely on English signs, menus etc in Thailand...

So how does this 24hr work if you go stay somewhere late Friday with imm closed over the weekend and you leave early Monday morning does that mean no report needs to be done ?
Chiang Mai immigration is open over the weekend to do these sorts of things now. However, I've done it a week or so late without any hassles.

To be fair, while I agree it's idiotic, it's not like that Thai Immigration haven't widely publicised this (stupid) rule is going to be enforced. Landlords who are renting to farang should know these rules. I've had no issues with my landlords doing it to-date. It sounds like it's the ones who don't want to pay tax who don't do it.
Also, the 24 hour thing seems very subjective and dependant on which officer you get. Recently came back into the country but didn't get in to immigration for a few days and there was no issue at all. In and out in five minutes.

I'm sure those Americans who laughed at my country's (NZ) new gun laws will be able to explain to me how theirs are working so well.

Thanks, nostradamus. I'm pretty sure even the best counseling the western world has to offer would probably struggle to heal these emotional wounds.
