  1. A ridiculous thong to do but this elephant is not a wild elephant, it is domesticated.
  2. Wildlife experts, end of conversation. Why should I have to do a Google search to verify your implausible assertion it is "unethical to bathe with elephants"...you're the one who needs to justify your claim! Elephants have strong ethical standards, now, do they?
  3. Well done, that's one that you referenced out of 80,000 Bangkok taxis and one that was nothing to do with a conversion!
  4. The tens of thousands of converted Corollas used as taxis in Bangkok comprehensively debunk that ridiculous "never end up good" theory!
  5. No elephant is ever domesticated! Domesticated elephants are.
  6. From this OP... "initial reports erroneously mentioned that Garcia had been gored, but this was rectified by Spanish news agency EFE, clarifying the nature of what transpired".
  7. Again, no such thing, they are wild animals No the elephants in question are domesticated, they are not wild elephants.
  8. How do you know that, did an elephant tell you?
  9. Incorrect. I am not trying to positivify or negatify Thailand, however when i read all these incidents , and think "this place is dangerous for tourists" thats when it either is becoming more dangerous or the media is selectively reporting these No, my post was not incorrect, to quote you, "the media is selectively reporting these", in this case that media is you!
  10. These domesticated animals are not wild.
  11. "I went to Sri Lanka a decade ago to watch the Gathering..." Wild elephants. The animals in the OP are domesticated, a huge difference.
  12. What a load of absolute cobblers. Bathing domesticated elephants is not "barbaric". "Same goes for the Tigers & the Crocodiles.." Huh? Where are these tiger and crocodile bathing events that you reference held?
  13. No such thing, they are wild animals, period! No, they are domesticated. Ending your post with "Period" doesn't make it factual.
  14. Yes, it is just you trying hard to paint a poor picture of Thailand by highlighting events that happen so infrequently they're almost irrelevant.
  15. The elephants in question are not wild, they are domesticated.
  16. Why would he need to ask permission from people who are cavorting in public?
  17. "Beautiful"? Huh? You may like them but, objectively, they are particularly ugly animals.
  18. Yes, I agree, they are tiresome animals.
  19. Actually he was impeached twice. The outcome doesn't change the fact he was impeached. Actually, what posters here are trying to imply is that he was successfully impeached twice and convicted. He was not. Their implications do not change the fact that he was acquitted twice. The impeachment proceedings were nothing more than unjustified and unsuccessful accusations.
  20. The voice of authority with none. You need to refresh/reread what impeachment means in the US. The voice of authority with less than none. You need to refresh/reread what impeachment acquittal means in the US.
  21. B0llocks...I'll correct that for you, "There were two failed attempts to impeach him". Fact.
  22. It's a fact that he will be a lame duck. Not opinion. Fact. No, your opinion, not fact. You can't even describe how, in your eyes, he would be a "lame duck"!
  23. Yes. Fact. Actually, he was acquitted twice of two lame duck attempts to impeach him. Yes. Fact.
