If just say 10% of all black Africans coming to thailand commit crime and overstay visas, racial profiling I would say is justified  

Probably a pretty good estimate.

  • Well done. 99% are here for dubious reasons. Deport the lot.

  • If they have a reason to target that group then good luck to them. Can't see the Thai's being put off by PC. Seems like they had a result too.

What do you mean they've started ? The black street close to Nana Plaza have been very active for at least ten years. Around that area there are hundreds of west-africans selling all kind of drugs, mostly heroin, cocain and meth. It's so obvious what they are doing so I guess a lot of money goes to the police retirement fund. Also check out how many black girls are "waiting for the bus" all night in that area

YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And you have been IN a British prison & seen for yourself? I call bullshit, because I have!!!!

 

What were you doing there? You are a criminal? A member of your family perhaps?

Visited prisons all around the country have you?

It's usually the least intelligent among us that spout such ignorant nonsense. 

Bursting at the seams for an opportunity to spread their bile. 

What sad lives they must lead.

I certainly don't know anyone who chooses to spend their time hanging around the lower Sukhumvit sois.

 

It would certainly be a case of the pot calling the kettle black if it's the low life who frequent the likes of Nana Plaza and Grace Hotel complaining about criminals of another race inhabiting the very same sois where they indulge in their own dirty deeds.

 

 

 

Many metros in European cities overflow with African drug peddlars and pimps who openly indulge their trade on the streets. No racial suggestion or generalization here, but it is a fact.

 

They utterly mock the flaws in the judicial systems and have established well organised networks in their areas of illicit operations.

 

It is good news to read that Thailand cracks down on the situation before it gets out of hand and out of control.

 

One definately finds more sense in policing drug peddlars or other crooks in place of harassing honest tourists and expats on basic visa formalities.

Only surprise is that the Thai Government haven't acted sooner against the Nigerians sooner. Having lived and worked in Germany for 15 years. This is a problem Germany has with many of the Nigerians. One of their favorite targets is to find a German woman or National who they identify as easy prey for whatever reason. Get her to marry them for a Green Card, than they find other Nigerians to sneak into the country illegally and put them up in their homes. As well as have another girlfriend on the side, obtain a phony documents from Nigeria and Marry again. All the time, taking as many benefits as possible form the German Government under multiple names. They are very quick to claim discrimination at the drop of a hat. They have been one of the problem migrant groups in Germany for years now. As well as Italy. Many European countries have been monitoring them for years now. Simply because they have caught on to the many Scams they run. Glad to see that Thailand is finally trying to get control of the problem before it gets a lot worse.

Not before time is all i can say.... they've been chipping away at Bangkok for as long as i can remember!!  Good work RTP!!! 

Where is all the "Black Lives Matter" crowd while all this 'Racial Profiling' is going on????????

These 'Black folks' are surely not guilty of any wrong.........  Just at the wrong place at the 'wrong time' and arrested because of their color........... LOL...........

If you believe this........... Then you may be interested in a 'bridge' in San Francisco that i want to sell, too....

I am not the least bit amused by any of this. Do you think it's so funny that the woman should be cheated? .. whatever the circumstances? You are here to keep some sort of score, just for fun?

Walking between sois 15 and 5 after dark you’ll get asked aggressively a dozen times by these low life criminals whether you want anything from them.

Anyone who cries racial profiling is either ignorant, not been to lower Suk recently or is an African street hustler.

Last time i was in BKK i was constantly harassed by Black Africans in the Soi 5 area.

How about racially profiling some rather wealthy yellow skinned folks and importing them for their crimes, ya know Shiniwatara's, red bull heir...

Suthep, Abisit , Chan  Ocra  etc.

The police must have been earning good money since they allowed them to stay in lower Suk for so long.  Maybe the cleanup will last who knows , but I'm afraid the same people will be back on the streets tomorrow.

According to Thai criminal laws, Deception by any means for the purpose

of obtaining monetary or property gains is a criminal offence punishable

by 5-10 in jail, and that that goes for ALL nationals... 

So they should put all Thai women in jail for 5-10

One of those arrested was charged with deceiving Thai women in a romance scam:cheesy:

Surely that is a joke? deceiving in a romance scam, not only done by Thai women, but also to them, priceless.

When it comes to romance scams, Thai women expect to be givers, not receivers!

With what judgement ye JUDGE......... SO SHALL ye be Judged......... LOL.......

May your soul rest in Hell...........

And I am not religious at all ........ But those phrases fit you 'perfectly'.......

You sound like some farangs that want a lovely lady to entertain you and then you give her 500 baht (Or less if you can get away with it)........

There are definitely  Thai women who rip guys off (often the guys deserve it)....... But there are also MANY (MANY) Thai ladies that give value for money doing things that you would never do, and THEY would never do - IF they had better options...........

Don't have much of a defense with a reply like that...... Do Ya??????

In any case the ones (Black ones) caught by the Thai Police were caught in the act in each case........ Thi article is just an indication of how many Nigerians and other 'Africans' there are on the streets of Bangkok...... and I am pleased to see the cops can recognise where to look..........

On my way to Foodland (as Tops supermarket is now flooded) I saw one of the African guys who's always on Soi 13 back there and staring at passers by to gauge whether he should approach, four African guys sitting on the steps of the nearby 7-11, and two African guys with a girl dressed  perhaps as the assistant to a stage magician or other cabaret act, (or even another profession entirely) all doing their tourist activities, though why sitting on the steps of a 7-11 from morning till night is a good use of time touring a country I cannot understand.  

 

Anyway it didn't even take a day.

 

 Now, I have to point out that I don't think all Africans are criminals, but there is no reasonable interpretation of the behaviour of these particular guys other than selling illegal drugs and pimping. 

 

However I am sure there are many Africans here who are not criminals (this is not sarcastic, I mean it). However they do not spend their days outside 7-11's calling out to people.

Addressed to "Simple 1"

If the prison population is as what your saying is more represented by coloured people . Well have you ever thought the reason could be the white poms do not give them a basic job to make a basic living so have no alternative to feed their family but to commit a crime. I would commit a crime to feed my family if I was in their situation and I'm white Falang. What would you do? Let your kids starve?

I don't buy that. In the UK there are enough benefits from the government to "feed your family"

Surely article 44 could be used to round them up and shoot them in the woods? Geez thaksin did it because it was the right thing to do.
