It does raise an interesting point; if the population of the USA is 340 million, then 1 in 340 a year is an infant death!
Off topic perhaps, but if that is the case how on earth can they justify cutting funding for various health care and health research programmes?

They call anyone who holds and/or expresses an opinion contrary to theirs "a liar". They have no concept of debate or discussion, have nothing but contempt for any view which does not follow their "truth"; at times their bigotry and hatred is almost hysterical. Maybe they take their lead from the man child in The Oval Office?

Calling someone a 'Liar' is not nice. It's not polite, and certainly not needed in a debate.
You're correct. The cops didn't die on the 6th itself. One died the next day as a result of what happened on the 6th, and four more killed themselves because of it.
146 police officers were injured during the attack on America on January 6th.They call anyone who holds and/or expresses an opinion contrary to theirs "a liar". They have no concept of debate or discussion, have nothing but contempt for any view which does not follow their "truth"; at times their bigotry and hatred is almost hysterical.

Volunteer interpreter? Possibly French to English - Police probably have English speakers but unlikely to have French speakers.

I saw the same... on January 6th. Only then police were killed by the mob seeking to take over the United States.
Live ammo time? So you are suggesting that Americans shoot other Americans?
Hey, that's not the America I grew up in.
That's North Korea. That's Russia. That's any dictatorship. That's NOT America... at least, it wasn't America.
It's his (wet) dream of America!
"Armed citizens", live ammunition and dead (brown) bodies.

You left out the peacefully and patriotically part. But that's okay, you're a leftist, so you can lie however you see fit, yes?
Your press tells you the lie, and you regurgitate the lie, it as a good party member should.
Oh gracious me, here we go again, the inevitable accusations of lying because I say or point out something you dont like!
When my daughter was 6 she used to shout liar whenever she was told no; she grew out of it after a year or so. Some people obviously never do!

So who was the fat bloke in the black overcoat who stood outside the White House on January 6th 2021 and told the crowd to march on the Capitol and fight?

I don't think tourism in TH is finished. All that is needed is international flights and hotels. To the new world middle-class any destination is ok, for example Pattaya as a family beach destination.
It's a pity some country doesn't run following live experiment:
1) Set up a huge landfill as destination.
2) Build ramschackle woodplank hotels around the landfill.
3) Build an airstrip nearby with a few charter flights from the Indian Subcontinent.
4) Count the families who come for a holiday on and around the landfill.
Pattaya:
Huge Landfill (effectively) - check.
Ramshackle hotels - check.
Airstrip nearbye with charter flights from the Indian Subcontinent - check.
We're in business!

This time it's different.
When was the last time you ventured out on to the streets in a tourist ghetto?
Just look at the numbers for this quarter....
The attitude of the locals stinks, the way they try and fleece the foreigner is atrocious and I for one hope they never return.
Mark.
I dont want to appear pedantic but I think the locals are hear to stay!
Anyway there will always be tourists, one smile from a 7/11 girl and they (you?) will be rampaging around Pattaya, waving their trousers in the air and shouting " bring on the ladyboys!"

Ok, many thanks. I s'pose a taxi is the only way?
They have Taxis, and of course the Airport Limo's. As ever at all airports (something to do with the jet fuel in the air?) the meters are broken!

As far as I know it has stopped running. It stopped during Covid. They did try to resurrect it but it didnt last long.

I joined this forum 22 years ago (goodness me am I old and smelly!)
The first post I read was to the effect that tourism was dead in Thailand. The second one was complaining that Pattaya was not a patch on what it used to be!

3 years ago in Laos I met a guy who overstayed for many years. Professional sound engineer. He said that he paid about 70k for a visa agency to solve the problem. And got a passport full of stamps without any overstay history.
Thai Baht (not bad), Laotian Kip (dirt cheap), US$ (pricey) or UK£ (very pricey?

Article from Nov 2023:
“They’re the result of a coalition of radicals united by their hatred of America and the West — a coalition that reduces everything to a conflict between oppressors and the oppressed and which is willing to condone the most horrific violence to advance the revolution”.“They are supported by groups with wealth, prestige and political clout — all resolutely leftist, if not openly Marxist”.
https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2023/nov/10/americas-pro-hamas-movement-is-red-green-alliance/
The story is based on a opinion piece
from the Washington Times & a foxnews expert on Islam.
Do you have a better understanding of whats going on in the world?
The real Nazi’s & Communist are the ones we see protesting against the establishment .Leftist NGO’s to the Democratic National Socialist party , Some Soros backed Organizations,
Some Islamic groups a mixed bag
of Terrorist supporters from around the Globe! Media , Politicians Gangbangers, Illegal border crossers , Judges , Universities all intent on protecting their cause of destroying Western Civilization.
The Red Green Alliance is real and destructive.
In my younger days it was so much simpler: in Europe "Reds under the bed", on posting to Hong Kong, "the yellow peril"!

Can anyone give advice on this? There's a super cute girl at my local 7/11 I'd like to ask out, but I'd rather not make it weird if she's not into it since I go to this 7/11 all the time and it's right next to where I live. How would you go about it?
Send me her line, I will contact her and arrange a rendezvous. Then when we are lying together in "the recovery phase" (sometimes known as the "sleep of the just after") I will recommend you to her as a good prospect!

@Cornish Pasty, if, as you would have us believe, you are new to Thailand, then be aware that, yes the women smile a lot, yes they are flirtatious, but that does not translate into "gagging for it".
If you are, as many have "sussed", just another incarnation of "Bob", then you are quite simply continuing your career as an oxygen thief!
I called into 7/11 this evening and bought a small bar of chocolate and a small bottle of cold pressed coconut oil. I explained in my appalling Thai to the serving girl, with whom I regularly joke, that the chocolate was for my tummy and the oil was for shaving. She unleashed the typical 1000 megawat Thai smile, gently prodded my tummy and ran her hand across my chin. I didnt ride the 5km home lost in anticipation of congress with a girl some 40 odd years younger than me! Thai girls smile and flirt, it is in their nature. It is one of the things which make living here pleasant! It means nothing.
But, you already knew that Bob!

Unlike the current occupant of the Oval Office, who, if his recent televised meeting with the Chancellor of Germany is anything to go by, is sharp, incisive, driven by pure logic, clear thinking, and proves himself the absolute master of any and all nuances when dealing with international affairs; and of course is absolutely charming to boot!

Imagine walking into a McD (or any other place for that matter) decked out in that, looking like that, and not feeling like a total idiot loser.
Mind-boggling.
They probably imagine that they are lean mean steely eyed killers!
And people accuse you and me and various others of being deranged!
It is not just mind-boggling, it is also a sign of a very strange phenomenon! Apart from anything, even allowing for platitudes about "slinging some nice iron", they wouldnt last two minutes against any trained troops! The only risk they pose is to the floorboards!

I have to say that a lot of horns here, particularly on lorries, seem to emit an undignified squawk like a ruptured duck rather than a motor vehicle warning device. I have always rather put that down to them being worn out by overuse, they seem to use them at every opportunity!
Trump's crackdown on LA protests is pure hypocrisy

Why should Honan arrest, or even be able to arrest the Governer of a state and consign him to a military run concentration camp outside the USA?
There was a regime in Europe in the last century which had a "plenipotentiary" who was able to do that sort of thing (his name was Heinrich Himmler).
The Communist/Bolshevik regime in Soviet Russia had similar ways of operating! In fact, funnily enough (well probably not funny if you found yourself in a cattle wagon en route to the gulags) the guy in charge of such programmes for a while in the 1930s was called "Yagoda" - Genrikh Grigoryevich Yagoda!
