Has anyone remembered that this is airborne ? Masks and social distancing is a load of <deleted>. If you are in an area where the wind has blown the virus, you will have it on your skin, hair, clothes. This is not the Plague where the mortality rate was 80%. This is a virus with a mortality rate of 0.04, like the 'flu'.

JMHO

North Pattaya would be TOO easy ! 5555555555

I would say that her time in the spotlight will be brief, so she should take advantage of it.

US says $400M to Iran was contingent on release of prisoners

Who did not know that ?!

Raul Castro: US must return Guantanamo for normal relations

No !

"The Roman poet Juvenal mocked the panem et circenses (bread and circuses) stratagem almost two millennia ago. In his Satire X, he referred to the Annona (a kind of grain dole) and the famous circus games, held in the Colosseum and elsewhere, as designed to keep the unthinking population fat and happy.

And here we are today, in A.D. 2014. Look around you, dear reader. What do you see?

Reality television... food stamp programs... democracy...

Now, as then, the show goes on."

IMHO, Ex-Pat Americans who live outside the country and bemoan the policies of your government should go back, and change it.

While you're at it, you should renounce whatever Social Security is paying you, since you feel that the underprivileged should have it.

Europeans have some right to moan as their privileged position was taken from them by "arrogant and brash" Americans that bailed them out of two World Wars.

Don't worry though, BHO and his ilk will soon enough turn the USA into the same cess pit that many tried to escape from in the first place.

Luckily enough, it won't happen in my lifetime.

Maybe it would be better if they did it the Chinese way ?

Guilty ! Shot the next day.

'one term is more than enough ...get new blood and ideas into thai poitics'

As long as there is no "Golden Parachute" for one termers.

I always thought that, "To Protect and To Serve" meant 'To Protect Each Other and To Serve Ourselves' .

Just curious.

Why are the BiB not standing around pointing at the miscreants, and why is the RTP not in the frame ?

Who ?

I have an idea; let's have a duel !

Decide on the weapons and the date/time, and let the media cover the action.

ANY reprisals by ANYONE will be met with summary execution. Now THAT should be entertainment !

I hate these double-barreled nationalities. If you're American, be American. If you come from another country, be American of 'whatever' descent. This is just fodder for the PC crowd.

"The health of the patients comes first, of course, and if they are critical, we continue to treat them until they are better, regardless of their ability to pay."

I don't know about Phuket but, in Pattaya the hospital wants to know if you have insurance/funds before the treatment.

My personal experience in dealing with another's injuries.

Another nut- job with a gun!

Another fruitcake, unable to solve a problem like a civilized person!

RIP the victim

How do 'civilized people' solve that problem ?

"To start a recording, click on the Video Message option and then Record."

Where do you see a Record button ?

How about a 'No Corruption Day' ? 5555555555555555

Study shows winning numbers are statistically impossible; signs of rigging

Fancy winning big in lottery? Maybe this will change your mind.

What a surprise !

Nice in the computer Graphic, the lashes are being administered and supervised by white caucasians. Don't let the Thai's think for a minute that this is a punishment administered by Asians...God forbid. The guys in the picture look more like members of the EDL than A Balinese Muslim. Still, give it 15-20 years the way things are going and the picture will be quite accurate as most Magistrate courts in the UK will be dishing out a similar punishment !!!

Relax genius, the photo is from Coconuts Bangkok, a site run by Byron Perry, Spencer Weed, and Jeff Bond.

You can find the original article at the Borneo Bulletin.

I don't get it, so is that supposed to be Byron, Spencer and Jeff in the picture then?

Genius yes, telepathic, ....no

Anyway I doubt the Thais will do it again! A photo of the end result of a caning. Not for the faint hearted. Ouch! Double ouch!!!

Whatever it was that he did, I'll bet that he won't do it again !

"I am lucky to be 84 years old and me and misses stole a lot before moving to Thailand
Most of you were to lazy and stupid to steal in your home country now are short funds too bad."

55555555555 HarryfromPattaya must have been a government employee ?!
