No, they are only after those farangy's on the fiddle to boycott Thai laws. If you are on the fiddle in some way, stay behind the curtains.......

 

 

True, and for most it's just recognize that you are not in your citizenship country therefore you must obey the local laws re land / property ownership, regardless of your desires.  

Is it really that difficult to understand and respect that all countries have their own laws based on local history / customs and respect for the local citizens, etc.

"He is trying to kill us" one of the guys said in the video to the Thai couple. You can see that they were not being aggressive or looking crazy in the video. They had zero interest in using the gun themselves. Hopefully we will see all the CCTV evidence to show what actually happened.  Either way, I bet they will never return to Thailand again.

Well I guess the video etc., shows they are just 2 nice guys.

At the very least Im hoping for a public  lynching, decapitation , put thru a mincer, made into jam and given free  to all Thai nationals as a  lesson to us  all. Clicks  machine goes into overdrive

Ohh, I guess that's a comparison with the tough treatment thaksin has received.

One exiled convict, forgiven by the army, in exchange for surrendering his political party, one heroine dealer, and one failed PM, was was not democratically elected, but rather appointed by the army. Hmmm. Such impressive group. 

 

So, why aren't foreign investments going up here? 

Nice points, and it's been said before that clever Thai business folks get on with business regardless of the crap / invalid / unethical government.

Actually it was a very good play on words, and you missed his joke. Shame on you.

 

No I didn't miss the 'subtle innuendo'.

The poster can joke, his call. I don't see this as a joke, when 99% of the Thai population who front to a court are sentenced to jail and serve jail, for minor infractions.

Charged but how much time did he actually do in jail for ANY of the charges?

Good point of curse which highlights that ultimately the judicial process is not genuine at all.

I only mentioned Australia because that's where the kangaroos come from. And he was sentenced in Australia.

In other words you write total crap.

But,but he was convicted in a Kangaroo court (Australia)

Not true at all, Australia doesn't operate like that, not every country is like the LOS courts.

The Navy has relocated HTMS Chonburi out to sea, from the naval base in Chon Buri province, after a jammed artillery shell was accidentally discharged into HTMS Khirirat, which was docked nearby.

 

The accident caused a fire on HTMS Khirirat and injured 14 sailors.

 

The navy’s commander-in-chief, Admiral Adoong Pan-iam, explained that the relocation of HTMS Chonburi is a preventive measure, to avoid a repeat of the accident, adding “The ship will be thoroughly checked for any more jammed artillery shells or other faults.”

...the relocation of HTMS Chonburi is a preventive measure, to avoid a repeat of the accident, adding “The ship will be thoroughly checked for any more jammed artillery shells or other faults.”

Very unprofessional and way less than what should be expected of a military / navy vessel / team. 

Surely they have already days ago thoroughly checked their guns to ensure they are not loaded?  

I would expect confirmation that all guns are not loaded as a serious check, performed by mid level officers and reported to senior officers well before they are near a built up area or other navy vessels.

Just Grifting thru Thailand is all he does 

Do some further research, he was changed with a long list of actual / serious crimes, corruption and collusion and more.

He was charged, cases heard in the standard courts of Thailand, with several cases the real evidence was published, nothing to do with military, not kangaroo courts, convicted, and sentenced to many years in jail.

It certainly is his ex.

Probably after some post conjugal intercourse. 

In his time in politics and during the PM position period nnd in the period where they built AIS she was seen as the brains and the strategist and got a massive payout when they divorced.

Much more concerned about our domestic enemies that live amongst us and deteriorate the U.S. from within such as Biden, AOC and the Squad and Pelosi just to name a few.

 

Putins invasion happened during Biden’s watch.  Need I say more.

 

 I know, I know.  Trump’s fault.

Silly comment.

Fluid Oz... because its related to the 'Carry on regulation' of 100ml which has been around for well over a decade in pretty much every nation...

 

But, I suspect you know that and being deliberately ridiculous. 

... and lazy and expecting that members on this web board are here as your slaves.

Grow up.

As usual, reading too much into my post.  Don't know where I stated straights or anyone, were or weren't pedophile's or molesters.  I simply stated males/men, as women, girls, young or teen boys are usually the victims of.  Women raping, harming my wife or daughter in the rest room is the least of my concerns.

 

The alphabet folks don't need special rights, laws, that criminals will use as loopholes, so they have an easier time of victimizing people.  All laws & civil rights already apply to everyone.  They are neither special nor deserve special treatment.

I didn't say you mentioned "... straights or anyone, were or weren't pedophile's or molesters."

I'll add what I please in any of my posts, you're not my master.

Nothing bigoted about it, as I prefer men not to follow my daughter into the ladies room.  I got along with all folks back in the USA, but there are boundaries when it comes to strange men following kids or women in my life, especially to the ladies room.   

 

Only bigoted thought is yours of me, since you know nothing about me.

But you expect others to listen to you.

I have many mainstream LGBT+ friends and work colleagues and many who aren't LGBT+.  I respect all of them equally.

By the way many so called str8 folks are paedophiles, molesters etc.

You are almost correct when you say "Yes the generals should be charged tried and punished".

 

However they have NEVER been punished, yet Thaksin has, for a far lesser crime.

 

Now why would that be, and why are you not complaining about that?

One more time and I'll frame it as a complaint from society(however some Thai folks don't see the generals actions as a  serious crime). Why Because in the tenure of the generals there was relative calm on the streets in the view of many Thais.

No I won't be engaging you on this point.

Yes the generals should be charged, tried and punished, but I cannot personally do that, maybe you can???

Bye.
