Russian Tourist Stabbed After Joke Misunderstood in Pattaya
Iron Tongue replied to Georgealbert's topic in Pattaya News
Yep. I've had Russians explain to me that they don't really joke, nor do they smile or talk to strangers. It's a cultural defensive trait to never get noticed or get in troubke. I doubt a Russian would just start to joke with people at another table. And alcohol would not be a factor. -
Yawn. Tin foil hat conspiracies. There are almost 20 countries with overlapping claims to Antarctica. It is also far from most country's ability to quickly reach, making it difficult to impossible to attack or defend. A base far from your resources & strengths is a stupid choice to develop advanced weapons & military technology.

Thai Taxi Driver Assaulted by Foreigner in Pattaya, Seeks Justice
Iron Tongue replied to Georgealbert's topic in Pattaya News
Rubbish reasoning. As the attacker was entering the weed shop, he hadn't had any weed yet. He could have been just as easily been raging from a meth binge and was looking for some THC to mellow-out a bit when the taxi driver got in his way. BTW, did you know the word "Assassin" came from"Hashashin"? The original cult of deadly killers who smoked hash as part of their rituals before going out for a kill? Want something more modern? Do you know that ISIS fighters smoke loads of weed before going to battle, including detonating suicide bombs? Medically proven, cannabis can induce psychosis, the resulting agitation & paranoia can lead bursts of violence. -
British Man Arrested for Jewellery Theft from Tourists in Pattaya
Iron Tongue replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
Really? So you think criminals should be given a chance to fight instead of readily complying to the police? That would be your idea of bravery?- 198 replies

Another criminal sorry for being caught, not regretting the life he lived to get him there. -
You don't really care about Mexico, the US, or reality, you are still mired in Trump You show your bias against Mexico, Mexicans, and probably women by using "Mexican Woman..." header instead of something more appropriate like "President of Mexico" or "President Sheinbaum of Mexico..." but you got Trump's name right. Just accept the reality is that everybody is posturing for their constituency by throwing red meat to their supporters. Whatever is said won't reflect the upcoming changes at the border AND trade between countries. What will eventually happen is that both sides will come to an understanding like what happened 4 years ago when Mexico used its military to clamp-down on illegal migrants passing through their country. This will happen because Mexico has much more to lose than the US if Trump closes the border like he did before, when Mexico immediately agreed to enforcing their borders, instituting Remain in Mexico, and replacing NAFTA with USMCA.

Bangkok Police Arrest International Gang for 3M Baht Gold Heist
Iron Tongue replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
Who wudda thunk that hair dye salesmen made so much money, and apparently it's an all-cash business! Now if I hadn't have known that this was a hair dye salesman in Chinatown, I would have made some sort of wild guess that he was probably a Bag Man for Chinese organized crime who moved a lot of illegal proceeds and payoffs around as cash and gold bars for his bosses...- but that would have been crazy talk! -
Thai Police Hunt 'Foreign Gang' Who Defied Law in Viral Video
Iron Tongue replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
So has their country of origin been mentioned? I haven't been able to find it, although I'm not looking too hard. All those "thugs" and I see 2 machetes, and is one guy holding a slice of birthday cake? -
BREAKING NEWS British lawyer latest to fall in Laos alcohol poisoning tragedy
Iron Tongue replied to webfact's topic in World News
You never know. The profits are huge. It may not be the proprietor, but the distributor/deliveryman bringing you cases of counterfeit rotgut that then gets served. Possibly, one of your barbacks is slipped some money to not look at the labels too closely. And for anyone who thinks the criminals can't do their own labels and capping on bottles to look like brand new hooch... We've all likely been served fake booze somewhere or other, luckily, most of them just use crap ethanyl and not added methanyl. -

Um, yeah. So Donald Trump leans with Nazis, yet somehow allows his daughter to marry an orthodox Jew and convert to Judiasm. His grandchildren are Jews. So how many streets in Israel do they name after Nazis? Give up already. The top party Dems have already moved-away from calling Trump a Nazi after the elections ended. Only morons are trying to keep up with that line of political attack.

CNN built its own bed to lie in. I love news. As a business traveller, I used to keep CNN on every minute I was awake in my hotel room anywhere in the world. But since they made the decision to enter politics instead of a being a news channel, I refuse to watch them. Same too with MSNBC where for 4+ years, Rachel Madow starter her show with another "Smoking Gun" story. And none of them proved true.

Kamala had to pay celebrities to appear.
Iron Tongue replied to Cryingdick's topic in Political Soapbox
The DNC burned-through over US$1,000,000,000 in 90 days. Still couldn't get people to vote for Kamala. Hmmm
