  1. That was the initial report - very possibly based on Bullman's account of events (since Bajaj obviously, was not around to give his version). Later on however, the police stated that after further investigation, both eye witness testimony (from the dead man's family) and more importantly the physical evidence, indicated that their initial report was incorrect and Bullman had broken into the British family's room by battering down a door separating the rooms. See Thai Examiner report below, from back in 2019. Bullman still on the run, to be charged with murder In another report, it was stated Police also apparently concluded, based on the angle, positioning and depth of the wound that Bullman already had his victim in the stranglehold when he was stabbed. So again, based on that view of events, it seems that Bullman was the aggressor and the Brit was the one acting in self defence when he stabbed Bullman while trying to break free.
  2. Again, you're totally ignoring the fact that none of the links you've given, provide actual evidence of what Comer calls "influence peddling," (sometimes also referred to as a "pay for play scheme"). All they contain are uncorroborated allegations of such a scheme. Even Comer himself admitted in public that they have not uncovered any actual evidence of illegality. As the article below puts it: Republicans Finally Admit They Have No Incriminating Evidence on Joe Biden
  3. No, he was a British guy from the UK. According to reports from the UK, he was a member of the Sikh community so probably (but but necessarily) of Indian heritage. That doesn't make him Indian. For instance, my family is of Irish heritage but I am not Irish.
  4. No, it does not. A photograph of a person does not provide evidence of their nationality (unless it's a photo of them holding their passport, of course).
  5. His claims of self defence seem a little hard to credit when you consider all the evidence (and all the accounts of the crime apart from his) indicate that he broke into the other guy's room and killed him there - or injured him severely enough that he died shortly after. Police found the British guy severely beaten and near death in his own room, and there was evidence that the door between the rooms had been broken down by Bullman when he forced his way into the family's room. It sure doesn't sound like self defence.
  6. There's nothing inherently wrong with changing it. That's why there are already 27 amendments. However, as Sheryl already pointed out, the President is not part of the process and it would require a 2/3 majority in both houses, followed by ratification by 3/4 of the states. So until MAGA Republicans (and not just Republicans) hold 2/3 of all government seats and control 3/4 of the states, it's not going to happen and certainly not just because Trump wants it to.
  7. So you haven't had it medically confirmed, then. Even your doctor is saying on this one point that it could be either the vaccine or long Covid. And based on the statistics, it is much more likely to be long Covid. Incidentally, it has been found that even asymptomatic Covid can lead to long Covid symptoms. Post COVID-19 Syndrome in Patients with Asymptomatic/Mild Form As far as I know, plaques in the brain due to Alzheimers can only be confirmed at autopsy. As the article below from the NIH site points out, there is: Which is associated with plaque formation, but: How Is Alzheimer's Disease Diagnosed?
  8. There are not 1,000 overstays. The headline is completely bogus. Reading the article properly, it turns out that Immigration looked into over 1,000 people because of a discrepancy between the number of arrivals and the number of people thought to be staying on the island but it turned out the vast majority were not on overstay. In the end, only 11 people were arrested for overstaying their visas.
  9. I also have a UK account despite living abroad for over 40 years. However the post you were replying to wasn't about people who have existing accounts (like us) it was about non-UK residents opening new accounts now.
  10. Yes, and as that article further points out: Even Bill Barr said that information from the Ukrainian sources this document came from, can't be taken at face value.
  11. No, the FBI have not confirmed that a document exists that describes "Biden's pay for play in detail." They have confirmed the existence of a document from a confidential informant that alleges wrongdoing by Biden. It is Comer et al who claim it contains details of a pay for play scheme - the FBI has not confirmed that is what it contains. And since Comer has apparently not seen the document yet (though the FBI has said he's free to look at it) then he can't confirm what it contains either.
  12. Yes it exists but as even that NY Post article headline says, it is nothing more than an uncorroborated allegation. I could allege all kinds of wrong-doing by anyone I care to mention - it doesn't make my allegations true.
  13. That link doesn't provide any evidence whatsoever. All it has is James Comer talking about the presentation and memo he was going to come out with that would be "judgement day" for Joe Biden. However when Comer gave his presentation and released his memo neither of them contained any evidence whatsoever of illegality. As stated in the article below: Republicans offer no evidence of crimes at press conference on alleged ‘Biden family corruption’
  14. I'm pretty sure it depends on how old they are. I've done three marriage extensions and our daughter (who is 34) has never been required to be on the photos.
  15. Erm, because the suspect himself admits having strangled the British guy? Admittedly, he claims it was in self defence but since he was the one that broke in to the Brit's room (which is where the deadly confrontation took place) that seems unlikely.
  16. I didn't see that stated. In the second article on this thread, it says the Norwegian TV2 channel reported on his having handed himself in to police. It didn't say they'd found him themselves. Unless that was reported elsewhere.
  17. According to the info posted by @Paradise Pete earlier in this thread, that's not quite accurate. He posted the following:
  18. */Quoted post removed/* Are you sure there's thousands? According to the paper below from PubMed Central, between August 2020 and December 2022: However, as that same paper also points out: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9926928/
  19. The question was whether any other country allows bail for people on a murder charge. As that list shows, many do. Yes, there are restrictions and yes, it's quite rare but that still means that many do allow it.
  20. Are you saying an English breakfast there was only 69-89 baht? And if not, how much was it?
  21. That's simply not true. There is no vaccine that is 100% effective in preventing the disease it inoculates against. Some of the vaccines against common childhood diseases are incredibly effective, at over 90% - but many others are not. Seasonal flu vaccines for instance, are only around 30% effective. Some of the newer malaria vaccines are about 50% effective. A Three-Dose Malaria Vaccine Shows Safety, Efficacy A vaccine is merely a medical product that elicits an immune response against a specific pathogen. And, as mentioned above, how effective vaccines can be varies widely, with many of them less efficacious than the Covid vaccines. It doesn't mean they aren't vaccines.
  22. That's not how I read the info on the two articles, taken together. As I understood it, no-one (in a position of authority, at least) knew he was traveling on a false passport until he turned himself in to the police after having arrived back in Norway.
  23. Pretty much any country that operates a bail system, can allow bail on a murder charge - depending on the exact circumstances, and at the judge's discretion.
