Thailand Visa Exemption (60 days) and Visa On Arrival (VOA) (15 days)
Just looking for clarification that I can enter overland on a UK passport and get 60 days? I'm leaving again in 36 days but I don't want to risk only being given 30 days at the border. -

It wasn't? You mean it really was caused by Yagoober doing weird stuff in Cambodia? -

Thailand Halts New Firearm Permits to Combat Rising Gun Crime
I want whatever the person who made that estimate is smoking. The low number of registered guns probably has something to do with the price tag of your typical hand gun which is literally 5 times the cost of the same gun in the US. Only those with the means can afford a registered guy, the cheapest of which are around 80K THB. Gun ownership is a middle and upper class phenomenon here. Unregistered guns? The 4 million quote is probably so low-balled as to be ridiculous. And now were talking about cheap, black-market firearms. The trick here though is getting the ammo, not the guns. That's more problematic for someone who owns an unregistered (illegal) firearm. And as far as concealed carry permits. Those were close to impossible to get unless you were a connected "somebody." So honestly, all the legislation does is keep uber-wealthy jerks from being able to legally conceal carry and then brandish their weapon after drinking too many Johnny Walkers at the Karaoke Club with the other connected and uber-wealthy. This legislation affect a minuscule percentage of the population and primarily those who are rich enough and connected enough to get a permit. It will have about as much effect as a pimple on a gnat's ass in "Combating Rising Gun Crime." What to combat it - register more guns so you know who has them. The primary gun criminals don't carry registered firearms. -
