Glad to see I was vindicated and the hysterical hand wringing of certain posters who feared the 2 juveniles were facing years in the slammer has been proved to be an over reaction, to put it mildly.

Still it's a pity they didn't get six months, maybe next time. 

They are not juveniles.

You can enjoy your unseemly GLOATING if you like.

Anyone that predicted the outcome could do that, but you win a prize for doing it OBNOXIOUSLY.

Nobody really knew what their fate was going to be beforehand though but people were free to PREDICT. I chose to make no predictions. 

Why anyone reasonable would think they really deserved ANY time in prison is still beyond me, but I did say reasonable.

JingThing.

 

The TVF “Voice of Reason”.

 

The week in prison was an opportunity for the pair to contemplate their immature behavior and to give time to the authorities to determine how to procede and also to allow closure to the Thai people who were reasonably jnsulted by these two foreigners disrespect towards their Holy Places.

It is sad that this law is being applied to two people photographing their butts with Wat Arun in the background. Time to scrap that law I would say. 

 

No-one should go to jail, anywhere in the world for something like this. Time for the religious nutters to grow a pair.

Have these two poor chaps actually left Thailand yet? I wouldn't be shocked to hear of a little incident/accident on the way out of the holding cell.

Laws for public indecency are not limited to places of worship in the US.

 

its the act of public display of ones genitals which society deems offensive and really has nothing to do with religion.

Well you know what it's like here Clutchie. Holding cell on the 4th floor. The married couple embracing on the balcony; looking forward to their release. When whoops-a-daisy!! Brown bread in a pool of blood on the pavement.

Well...I concede your point. 

 

LOS does have its share of unexplained "accidents".

 

Hopefully these two know to stay away from balconies.

Quite he seems to have a mental age consistent with the two blokes in question and room temperature IQ to boot.

The traveling_butts on Instagram appear to be continuing their journey. Mykonos of all places should be more tolerant.

They were deported to Greece?    I heard they are still in detention. Travis refuses to leave his new friend's behind.
