Some more pics would be good, difficult to determine location. Is her head up in the pic? If so I am wondering if some irritation from her choker collar like nickle allergy or pinching?

Till.
This is a very good movie about the true story of the famous lynching of Emeitt Till age 14 and his mother's bold decision to show his dead body to the world.
If you don’t know the story already you should know it and this movie though not a documentary would be one way to learn about it.
The actors playing the mother and child were both brilliant.
But that said while the movie definitely fully held my attention there was an element of aloofness about it that didn't fully engage me emotionally. Perhaps because I already knew the story well. Also I guess most people wouldn't consider the tragic subject matter particularly entertaining.
Absolutely brilliant movie and portrayal of such a terrible time.
Truth, Justice and the American Way.....so long as you are white,

Don't pick Up the Phone
Thought this was mind boggling.
Summary: The shocking true crime story of a hoax caller who targeted fast food restaurants across America - posing as a police officer investigating a theft, the caller instructed managers to strip-search the young female employees he said were suspects; for many victims, what began as a humiliating strip search escalated into sexual abuse. When the hoax caller hits McDonald's in Mount Washington, Kentucky, a rookie detective makes it his mission to catch him - what he uncovers is extraordinary. With testimonies from investigators, victims and the people who were duped into committing strip-search crimes, this limited series tells the story of the hunt for the strip search hoaxer, and the victims' search for justice.Mind boggling is correct. Its hard to imagine something like this happening anywhere but then again it is the "land of the free" lol.

People say alot of ridiculous things. Means very little what they say. Nonsense is nonsense.
Sure, discipline is a factor. But, even with discipline a monster is still a horrendous and dangerous monster.
I normally like your posts but with this one you have no idea what you are talking about. I doubt you have ever had a dog except to put your pajamas in on the end of your bed.

Purebred "dog fighting" dogs are very human friendly, they were bred to fight other dogs and human aggression was an undesirable trait. It's when you cross breed them with breeds such as Mastiffs (which have been used as war dogs to fight humans, or to protect property from humans) that you end up with the strength and tenacity of the "PitBull" and the human aggression/size of the Mastiff (not picking on Mastiffs here, could be other breeds as well). This is why you end up with "huge Pitbulls" which aren't actually "Pitbulls" at all.
When such a dog attacks, it is labelled a "PitBull" attack, when in fact it is essentially a mongrel or a cross breed. If you broke down the figures, I'd bet a huge proportion of these "PitBull" attacks are not a specific breed such as the American PitBull Terrier or the Staffordshire Bull Terrier but a mix of various breeds, some of which may have been bred for human aggression.
This is why breed specific legislation is such a nonsense. The label "PitBull" is vastly misused. The dog in the OP is a good example. Clearly a mix (I'd guess a Mastiff/American Bulldog mix) but labelled a PitBull.
Hence all the uneducated posts on this thread screaming for a ban on PitBulls.
Crossbreeding. You may have something there. Dont know about dogs in this regard, but I know in the cattle industry if you take two purebreds of different breeds you get a thing called "hybrid vigor". The result is bigger stronger animals but when it comes to bulls you need to keep right out of the way...they are crazy mad.
Something else that stands out in this case is that the victim was 'different", he had "some minor mental health issues". Dogs notice things like this and it makes them uneasy. I had a workmate who had a limp and the soi dogs gave him hell going to work everyday but ignored the rest of us. We have 2 mentally challenged guys in our village and you can always tell when they are out and about because all the dogs go berzerk barking. Im not excusing the dogs but its just another reason why powerful dogs should not be allowed to roam free.
The dogs' owner should have the book thrown at him. There is an old saying. "One dog is one dog, two dogs is five". Three dogs allowed to run free together is a disaster waiting to happen. They become a marauding pack who edge each other on and are super difficult to control. He knew that in fact he all but admitted it. And dont forget the very recent publicity over dog attacks. He should be held responsible and knows it but tries to play the benevolent victim.
I agree that breed specific legislation is useless. Any dog large enough is a menace in the wrong owners hands. Years ago in Australia when Dobermans, Rottweilers and German Shepherds were a status symbol there was a spate of attacks and there were calls to ban those breeds.....until the head surgeon of the local Childrens' hospital released data showing the biggest culprit was the lowly Labrador.... believe it or not!
Lastly I have a very strong belief, after having dogs all my life, that there arent any bad dogs.....only bad owners!

He has a mind blocker, so whatever you post in favour of common sense and mask wearing, he will mind block, because he does not agree with it, therefore you, me or anyone else are wrong and stupid.
He is already on my ignore list.
I bet he has a yellow book and pink card that came free in a cornflakes packet!

You could always insist on going with her.
Diplomatic solution,
Tell her you're going to stay in Pattaya while she's away.
Just pack a lot of condoms for her....problem solved. Its not like a gang of co-workers is going to wear her out or break her, good for teambuilding too. ????

Sadly Thailand is moving backwards in this regard so I find it hilarious when they make plans for "50% less deaths by 2030" or whatever nonsense they come out with.
One needs to ignore half of what politicians here say and disregard the rest otherwise you would be believing that Thailand is soon going to the moon, that they have invented a cure for AIDS and Ebola and that all Thai politicians are born super-rich or borrowed it from dead friends.

What are the laptops you want to dispose of? Brand? Age? Model? Maybe someone can put them to use where they are just paperweights to you.
For example, I'll take a 10 year old, military spec thinkpad (x or t class) over a new consumer grade laptop from the major players.
Indeed I in fact am looking for the body (casing) for a Lenovo Ideapad S400. The laptop works fine but the broken case interferes with the cooling fan. One mans rubbish................

I am at present suffering the covid after safely avoiding it for over two years. I am now wishing I had worn a mask around my wife's family let alone a bank.
If you dont give a sh#t about your own health at least think of others!

Many thanks for the tip ThaiFelix, and I did manage to find it; "Hearts of Darkness: A Film Makers Apocalypse" (eventually) and watched it, and it was both informative and intriguing and as I've always suspected, it was an allegory, not only about the Vietnam War, but also about America itself.
The candid confessions of the actors in the film were indeed eye-openers, and I was extremely surprised when Dennis Hopper (in this documentary) was just as "scatty/spaced out" in the real life scenes as he was in the movie!
It remains one of my most favourite movies and I don't know that I've ever seen one to match it.
For those who may want to watch it, I think I have found the link and it is as follows:
My apologies re the title, I was miles out, however I did say it had been a while. I watched it again and thoroughly enjoyed it. I may just watch Apocalypse Now again as I am bedded down with the covid right now.
"Allegory" , Ive just learnt a new word and yes, very fitting too.
Dennis Hopper...555555! What more could you really say about the man. Reminds me of years ago Salvadore Dali was asked in an interview had he even partaken in LSD, to which he replied "Taken LSD? I am LSD!"
The film was total insanity like the war and the politics it was trying in reflect.

I normally cant stand the "Italian Stallion", considering him just another American knuckle-dragger, and while surprised I even had a look, Iam thoroughly enjoying the series. Some subtle wit here and there too, I hope it keeps it up.
