Again, fine out of all proportion to normal fines here for much worse offences. GBH, 500 baht.. Vehicular manslaughter, 500 baht... Wait, they beez white folk :) Out of proportion because the fines for "GBH and Vehicular manslaughter" are far too low. Defacing of public property IMHO is far worse than smoking on a beach, or possessing an e-cigarette, or even feeding fishes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She must have gone out and bought that giant green marker with intent to deface Thai public property, how does that give you kicks? I dont get it.. I hope she is made to clean it all off as well That's it! For once the punishment could easily fit the crime. And maybe a dozen or so hours of closely supervised 'community service' like collecting rubbish and scooping up 'barker's eggs'. Give 'em a holiday to remember!

Hillarious, a TV poster cynical about local xenophobia....a trait familiar in all cultures. What's unique is TV, where you've chosen to live in a culture that you endlessly trash.

Suetape Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 I agree with the fine and would also like to see them clean it up with the public watching. Don’t want Bangkok replacing Athens Greece as the graffiti capital of the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roymac Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 They are guests here and should respect the Thai culture and property. Failing which they should move on back to the good o'l US of A and deface their own country . "Get your kicks on Route 66". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

user4365423653 Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 5000 baht for writing graffiti. Recently, a Thai man was fined for masturbating in public, while driving his motorcycle drunk. How much? 500 baht. And he was let go, drunk as he was. Justice in Thailand is a highly relative thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lockman07 Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 Being a retired American here I will tell you all that knucklehead millennials like these two disrespectful, entitled morons is a large part of the reason why I moved out of the US. They are an embarrassment just like the two special boys that bared their butts at the temple (which I they got arrested for 2 years previous in Cambodia but still felt like it's their right to be disrespectful), what a disgrace our youth are. They think they are in California & can just walk across the street without looking & world will stop for them. I was hoping to read about jail terms for all four. That's my 2 baht's worth, I love living inThailand & assimilating to the culture & being respectful as a GUEST in this country. The youth have no concept of being a guest, they feel that they are special & entitled, well they're not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisinth Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 Sorry, can't help but comment on those posters who don't see anything wrong with this, those that think this is a form of modern art. First off, this isn't even graffiti, this is what is known as tagging, this is what these two idiots were doing. I concede that this is only my opinion, but I couldn't even imagine where the art is in "WOAH" This stuff does nothing to brighten the streets up.....................

Carmelo Savoca Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 They show no respect for the country they are visiting. Why not make them clean the graffiti up and in addition ban them from entering the country for another ten years until they show some maturity.

Torrens54 Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 They should consider themselves rather lucky they did this in Thailand and NOT in Singapore. There was an American lad quite some years ago who made headlines around the world when he carried out some mindless Graffiti Work in SINGAPORE where, for his trouble, he was not only fined but given a few strokes of the Famous RATTAN CANE. Do-gooders around the world were appalled but amazingly, I am given to understand that the fellow has NEVER AGAIN OFFENDED ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
