All Plods are self-serving, money-hungry half-wits. End of story.

Please do not exaggerate, they are less than half-wits

Religion whichever chosen is the belief in fairytales, if you believe in something, God (choose which one or ones) Santa Clause, Father Christmas, Jesus Christ, Buddha, The Tooth Fairy, etc that's fine, and if someone does not believe what you believe in that's fine. If someone says that I am stupid to believe in God that is an opinion they are entitled to voice, write, express. If someone tells me that I wll rot in hell because I do not believe in God, Jesus etc thats ok too.

When people say that they are offended because of such expressions they are fools.

Most religions and regligious philosophies basically say the same things, be good live a nice life don't steal, kill, etc then the various philosophies start getting barmy and talking about nonsense heaven, hell, paradise, virgins, virgin births, jihad, crusades and other contrary aspects.

It is all fairy tales, rubbish, if you belive it fine if you don't fine, but stop saying this and that is offensive.

As someone who does not believe in any of this nonsense I do not turn around and say a Christian wearing a cross is offensive to me, as he believes some fairy tale fine wear a cross.

POLITICS AND RELIGION ARE USED TO CONTROL AND MANIPULATE PEOPLE

The post above talks of THE Dutch others referr to a race too THE thais THE Chinese THE Germans etc.

Nationalistic ideals the myth of patriotism these are stamped into you to make you fight and kill your fellow man globally for oil and money you all need to think for yourselves,

Taxis play games with us so I play it with them....

I open the back left door and ask if they are willing to take me, when they refuse I gently shut the door so its not closed all the way and walk on

Its a serious stretch for them to reach the back left door to shut it

Have you ever thought that the guy you ask may be finishing his shift and honestly can't take you to you requested place?

Not all taxis driver play games, there are many hard-working honest drivers, many from Isarn, who work 12 hour shifts, 7 days a week of a pretty dismal salary.

It's hardly a wonder they think what they do of foreigners with this little trick you play.

And then you woke up 'JonathanBKK'

If a taxi driver has finished his shift he does not appear to working, he states that he has finished his shift. He does not sit around in his car waiting till someone approaches, finds out where they want to go and then says no.

Comments like yours are pathetic at the very least and are worthless.

What kind of tours are these female guides giving at 4am?

Unless your reply is an attempt at humour, what difference does it make as to the person involved what their profession is.

The situation would be the same regardless of a persons sex, profession, nationality and even time of day etc.

In most countries even in Europe wherever tourismis concerned there are always elements of ripping off the tourists.

It should be, but is not, clamped down on heavily by the authorities, but more often than not it is ignored.

Thailand is rife with this type of crime and will continue to be so.

Coruption is the world wide norm but when discussed at levels such as this forum the discussion often becomes tainted with crys of racism, when in fact it is nothing of the sort.

There are bad people in every country and Govermental coruption in every country.

If you believe otherwise you are a fool.

This is from the earlier report linked above . . . . So have they recovered the LOOT OR NOT???

The two suspects were arrested in Trang province last night after being stopped by Highway Police, who searched the car they were travelling in.

Officers found the missing loot hidden in two separate bags inside the car.

Never loose sight of the fact that this type of thing happens globally, not just in Thailand.

It happens in what some like to refer to as civilised society

These type of heinous crimes are committed in the UK USA France Belgium Sweden Italy Spain and more.

Also as in Thailand many children are bought and sold used and abused and then discarded by rich and powerful men in the USA and Europe

In my opnion any man that does this should have a tatoo across his forehead that reads "I am a child rapest".

Or alternatively a tattoo reading ' I am a child rapist '

hmmmm, what if he moves to a country where they can't read English?....lol glad they gotem.

Could tattoo it in several languages ALL OVER HIS FACE AND BODY

Might just be me, but surely this type of crime should incur the death penalty, rather than the crime of possession of Heroin and the like.
