View Talay 2B is where I live. How on earth were you "detained" and by whom?

I'm 75 and live with a nice 47-year-old woman who has no connection to the bar scene. She lost her traditional massage job during the pandemic and I took her in. I am no longer interested in the bar scene and visit 7-11 for my beer. She only eats Thai food so feeding her is cheap. She is casually employed babysitting for my landlady (who adores her). She is one of those people who never meets a stranger and is not pressing me for marriage. My situation works pretty well. I had no luck with women back in the USA, but I'm not likely to die alone here in Thailand. Men who stay clean and dress nicely can do fairly well here in Thailand.

My POINT is that Trump won't be getting a third term. One of the few things that Democrats and Republicans agree on is that two terms is enough. Once Trump is gone his MAGA cult will dry up and blow away.

Trump is not normal. Talk of making Canada the 51st state is sheer insanity.

Only three and a half more years and we will have a new President.

I love the Shins. Most Thai people do, as well.

Any of them will do.

Trump considers himself as America's CEO. He is unable to think in terms of government with checks and balances.

At this point, I would like to see Thailand go back to an absolute Monarchy. Coups would be history at that point. Let the Monarchy run the country. We could do much worse.

Having lived here for ten years, I am very aware of the role of Thai Immigration. Welcome to my "ignore list".

A completely idiotic post. Laws have been changed by force when the United States and other western countries applied SANCTIONS to bring unjust countries to heel. Thailand still owes the USA for pulling their chestnuts out of the fire during the Vietnam War. The Thai government was scared to death of a communist takeover. We all know what happens to monarchies when the commies take over.

You do not change the law by continuing to obey like a mindless MAGA moron. Western nations can force Thailand to change if they apply sanctions judiciously. Laws that are not fair must be changed by force.

All of this is irrelevant to Thai Immigration. They ignore real crime while placing undue and hysterical emphasis on "overstay".

Democracy by threat of a coup. What a novel approach. Only in Thailand.

The absolute WORST sin according to Thai Immigration is to lack money. They don't even want the expats who HAVE money, those who don't are lower than a snake's belly.

The long-standing position of the Thai police is that prostitution does not exist in Pattaya because private arrangements between women and expats does not fit the definition of prostitution. If you insist on defining your own terms, suppose they have a point.

Expats with a "one size fits all" mentality should not be here either. I am tired of the trashpats who lack any compassion at all for those who fall upon hard times. Your imprisonment and deportation cannot some soon enough.

The hard-hearted nature of many posters on AN is depressing. It will be fun to watch when your time comes to suffer. Many of you have all of the compassion of Donald Trump.

OVERSTAY!!!!! The number one Thai obsession. Spending money here is punishable by imprisonment and blacklisting. Thai Immigration has gone insane.

Incredibly stupid. No sympathy.

If the offender released a snake that was poisonous or otherwise deadly to humans, he should get lethal injection—zero tolerance.

The offending Thai scum should have his foot surgically removed and inserted into his anus.

His low opinion of organized religion was refreshing. A perfect counter to my Mom's Catholicism.

Even the fat ones look pretty good when you compare them to the foreign punters. 😀

Heterosexuality won't be going away anytime soon—another alarmist post.
