Sad news. I hope Assange loses this case and is extradited to the USA, where he can stand trial for espionage.

Absolutely!

It looks like they have a photo of the license plate. This arrest shouldn't take long.

That's okay with me as long as Trump has to take one, too...

The police should be careful with this. Nong Nice's claim may be true!

He should be given a sentence of "life or 90 days."

I play golf twice a week. I speak Thai with the caddies, and I've named my hybrid clubs (a club that is a cross between a wood and an iron) "kathoeys," like "kathoey 2" or "kathoey 4," since that also carries the meaning of "hybrid." The caddies all understand and like that.

Yes, I am a Trump hater...

It's working so far in Gaza, but I think that will come to an end very soon now.

Thats stupid. Israel has one flag. There are more things that are considered "symbols" than just a flag.

I did write this post. I did use a keyboard in my home office. What I didn't do was use an AI app to CREATE it. I did all the creating. My mom's been dead for about 15 years, and her house was sold many years before that.

No, you didn't "create some AI." You USED an AI app to CREATE some images. You didn't CREATE anything. You just made the orders. It's like saying a park supervisor "created" a ditch while sitting in his office after telling his employees to dig one.

I have no idea what they're talking about...

Humans are like a cancer on the Earth. We are consumed by our own hubris and believe we are the most important thing in the universe and everything else can be used and destroyed as we please to satisfy our desires. Until we learn to live both socially and environmentally compatible lives on the Earth, we have no business trying to go to other planets. If we do, that should not be called "colonizing"; it should be called "metasicizing."

Now, at 78, I guess the most appropriate hairstyle for me to express my gender is bald...

Great, why not try it............. All I'll say is that before Trump, I was an opponent of our (USA's) 2nd Amendment. Now, I've been forced to reconsider my position on that.

If I were to give my opinion on what Trump should do, my comment would be taken down, and I would be banned from AseanNow.

I've lived in Thailand for over 20 years and have NEVER been threatened by a Thai. Of course, I live in a rural area in northeastern Thailand and don't go to bars to drink or stay out late at night. I also have been married to a Thai woman for most of that time, so I also don't go looking for street sex. These are the scenarios that I assume Farangs are engaged in when they are threatened by Thais. I have been threatened by Farangs a couple of times, but that was over disputes about golf at my golf club. These threats have never come to blows or have led to any retaliation.

No, I'm saying if you come to a foreign country, or even in your home country, you are subject to the local laws. Some of those laws may not be totally congruent with UN articles. Challenging and trying to straighten all that out is a problem you shouldn't want to have. So what I'm saying is the best course of action is to obey the local laws - or leave the country if they are too unacceptable to you.

I'm only a laugh for those that are allowed to stay...

Check article 19 of the UN According to Article 19 of the UN, you can complain if you don't like it. I think you still have to comply with it or be ready to suffer the consequences. It's the law in Thailand. Live by it or go home.

Or...the Brit was drunk and was mistaken about the amount he had given the driver. The dashcam might be able to help clarify that.

I'm only saying that REGARDLESS of whether the taxi driver cheated him (short-changed him), that does not justify an assault. That's my only point here.
