Som nom na. They have had YEARS to clean up this mess, but just sat on their asses doing nothing. Serves them right.

The arrest and incarceration of these students may well come back to bit him big time!

Wellllll, this should be fun.

They need to put their own house in order before they criticise others.

Didn't take long for the Junta lovers to jump on this one.

Just 'cause you're "going home" doesn't mean you can't still be a part of TVF. They have this wonderful invention called "the internet", which I hear is also available in the U.S.

Little red piggies missing their feeding frenzy at the trough?

Asinine comment.

10-15 years, and Myanmar will be the country that Thailand wishes it was.

Ohhhhh, God, don't even get me started on my pack rat wife. I'll be typing all day.

And what happened to the situation where his son was supposedly flying to Japan to show legal registration papers of the gun?

So young, so tragic, so sad.

I'm an expat (I think), and I doubt if I fit in any "profile". I'm 66 and have been here for 7 years, married to a woman only 10 years younger than myself. I have a 32 year old adopted Thai son that I love as if he were my own, and who has told me, more than once, I'm the best father he could ever have. I'm not rich, by any means, living on 100% VA disability, and 50% SS disability, but I manage our money well, and we live quite nicely. What the average drinker (not the alcoholics) consume on a Friday night out would probably be more than I drink in 6 months. My biggest joy in Thailand was climbing on my CBR 250 and hitting the roads for 3-4-5 days at a time here in the north and north east. Yeah, it got stopped by a stroke 20 months back, but I figure that by December I'll be straddling a new CB300f and doing it again. I pretty much keep to myself, but what friends I do have a real friends, and I count myself lucky to have them. I avoid the VFW and things of that nature like the plague, as I have no desire to sit around and rehash a distorted history where I barely escaped danger 100 times, and was the hero 100 more. If people like me, great. If they don't, so be it. Do I fit a "profile"? Yeah....MINE. And that's the only one that counts in my book.

Soooo, if the scanners are all working properly, that means the "Do you know who I am?" card was played out, allowing him to go on his merry way.

Gee, I don't know. I thought the report was pretty clear, concise and directly to the point. What's so hard about understanding that?

Thai drivers are just pissed off because they can't get the "commissions" from the jewelry stores, etc, for dragging their tourists there.

When will they hold their hands up and say, lets sort out our road safety

This IS a rhetorical question, right?

Got to make up for lost time, so who cares about something such as safety?

Give Myanmar 10 - 15 years and they will be the country Thailand wishes it could be.

I think someone heard that an "invasion" of Thailand by Antarctic penguins is planned, so they definitely need the subs for protection.

While most seem to be trashing the girl, my question is: What the hell was a cop doing parking his car along the side of the road to take a nap? Surely to God he could have found a better place than that!

I'll give them 2 years before they sink all three of the.

Now the junta wants to stop things IN Thailand, that have nothing to do WITH Thailand.

Anyone not seriously believe that Thailand is under a total "pricktatorship"?

Did it every occur to this "genius" that the students are acting on their own, and for their own beliefs, as students all over the world have done in the past?

Sorry, rhetorical question, as that would require him to actually think.

Facts:

1) He admitted the gun belonged to him.

2) He admitted putting it in his medicine bag.

3) His son flew to Japan with documents to prove the gun legally belonged to his father.

4) He took the gun FROM Thailand TO Japan, and passed through Swampy "security" to do so.

5) His ass is guilty as hell.

I hope they make a major example out of him.

According to reports, it's a .22 Magnum. Interesting side note: Back in the '80's I had a very close "acquaintance" who worked as a real life hitman for the Mafia in Chicago. His weapon of choice for up close jobs - .22 Magnum. Of course, it didn't help him much when 3 of his "competitors" took him out with .45 autos. 555

no wonder they get caught, they or their 'acquaintances' can't keep their mouth shut, lol

Actually it as a bit of a "turf war" and they gunned him down as he was leaving his house in the morning. Not an unexpected outcome when you live that life.

Jatuporn was quoted today as indicating something to the effect that if young people don't stand up for what they deem to be in their interests, then there is no future for the country.

I understand social media is alive and well within the scenario described in this article.

Nuff said.

Nuff said is wrong. Too much said would have been better when you are quoting Jatuporn.

What i can not figure out is how those kids made a 7 hour standoff unarmed and without using hostages. They should have been handcuffed and hauled to jail quickly.

Jaunta lover, are we?

Don't believe in things such as Freedom of Speech and Civil Rights? Sure sounds like it from your comments.
