They should have left these homosexuals in jail. Stupid beyond belief.  Go back to your gay community and stay there.  You two are sickening butt buddies.

You do not have to like gay people. But live and let die, please.

I am not sure TVF has protections for Freedom of Speech ;-)

[Oziex1]

Disrespectful yes,  trivial yes. 

 

Now let's have a conversation on the behavior of Buhdist monks, their morality and adherence to the ways of the Buhda.

Drugs, sex with underage girls and boys, rampant greed and consumerism, act's of violence and lawlessness of all sorts. Sigh!

you don't bar fine women at a temple

that practice died out hundreds of years ago

 

True, but go to YouTube and Facebook and the torrents and look for guys bragging on picking up hookers in Thailand.

 

Then ask yourself which one damages Thailand's image more.  A couple of guys' selfie of hanging a moon at a temple, or a thousand guys posting up photos and videos of their cheap score?

Thailand is the laughing stock of the world. Anyone who has been here for any length of time knows this.

 

Regular, rediculous statements.

Mushroom pickers (30 years each).

Red Bull <deleted> (no years or even days yet).

Mooners, graffiti man and railway coin man; outrage.

Ms Pinky.

 

Outrage; when it suits them.

Close eyes; when it suits them.

Religion; when it suits.

I may have this wrong but I don't think the response by the Authorities was concern of damaging Thailand's Image but rather a response to a direct insult to their Religious Institutions.

 

If these two guys were to attempt this stunt at my small community Church that I have been attending since I was a baby then I have to say the Thai response has been rather pale in comparison to my own. 

 

Its not wise to disrespect another person's religion. Somehow these two assclowns reached the ages of 34 without having ever learned that.

Before I got here, I never gave Thailand a second thought.  It's the guys who have been here a long time (myself included) who have a distorted perception of what the rest of world thinks of Thailand.  The rest of the world doesn't really care- even if they do know.

I have never once heard any reference about Thailand being a laughing stock except for a bunch of old alcoholic expats on TVF. 

 

I would have to disagree with your sentiment.

its just very disrespectful.

The can go to nude beaches instead.

Fans who following these punks on social media are sickos.

[ezzra]

When you get like 10's of millions of tourists a year, you bound to also

get the dickheads and misguided among them that all they care about

is themselves.....

“They wanted me to thank everyone for their thoughts prayers and concerns,” said Robert Rodriguez, a friend of the couple.

“They send all their love to their friends that have supported them their ass,” he added.

I think these homosexuals should have been jailed for at least six months and then deported sine die.

I think the whole thing got blown totally out of proportion, so them being released and going on their way is the right course of action. People committing violence get away much lighter.

Apple's  and oranges.... disrespect of culture should come with a hefty fine and ban from the country 5yrs.imo

Being gay doesn't mean being indecent.They should respect other beliefs. Thai religions should be respected by tourists.

 

I agree with you, being a homosexual should not bother anyone provided it is kept behind closed doors.

[holy cow cm]

Blacklist them as they at a danger to Thai Society

People have the right to practice any religion they want as long as they keep one thing in mind, do not let it interfere with other people in any way.

One of the conditions of their release should have been that they remove the pictures, delete any copies in front of authorities, and agree not to repost any additional copies.  Of course they could violate that in which case an arrest warrant could be issued thus preventing them from returning to Thailand again.  I wouldn't even ban them, just issue an arrest warrant I think would send a more clear message inviting them back to face charges.

Mentally disturbed lunatics trying to get attention. Should have stayed in jail and have their butts redesigned

Heroes to some; villans to others.

 

The Don had a word with Tilly

Tilly had a word with Junta vice PM.

Vice PM had a word with  Ch-o-ch.

Ch-o-ch had a word with the court clerk.

Court Clerk had a word with Miss Pinky.

Miss Pinky had a word with the Justices.

 

Thanks Miss Pinky! At least you can see the humour. Pass it on; Thailand needs some!

No, they're not free to leave, they're with Immigration police in the process of being deported, there's a massive difference.

[Zyxel]

I don't think they showed their butts when they were jailed.... or may-be they did.

I think we have covered this stuff in many other thread,s i care little for the misguided beliefs of the devout of all religions and  feel great anger at the corruption of it in all faiths, generally so those at the top can literally get away with murder.

 

It should have been left in the dark ages where it belongs.

Not accurate news. Their Instagram account was back up four days after their initial arrest with photos supposedly taken in Utah. The Thai photos were still there. Their account was blocked by Instagram yesterday and now doesn't appear to exist.
