And make sure they were allowed to be street vendors? Why should they? There is no money in it for them the way there would be if it was a vendor with a stall.

Also I had a little hand to hand training 30 years ago (non-military), and none of those guys are fighting like they've ever had any training at all. If I got involved in something like that even today I think I'd move my feet into a fighting stance without thinking. And turning your back on an aggressor? I don't think that's in the handbook! Easy to guess what transpired, but the video starts with a watch on the ground already, so there's no proof. I guess the vendor waved the watch a little too close to the guys face and had it slapped away and dropped the watch. Farang got off easy, lucky he didn't get a knife in the kidney when he turned away. I agree, in hand to hand training, your feet stay on the ground, even this karate stuff is no use on the street, as soon as your feet leave the ground you are at a disadvantage right away.

I just spent a month in Pattaya and eat breakfast (and dinner frequently) at the same place in LK Metro...its a never ending stream of fake watches, Viagra and tourist tat sellers shoving there wears uninvited in your face every 3 mins sometime while you still have a folk in your hand...some times there is one standing behind the other waiting his term to pester you. Do give me that **** about their only trying to make a living, eventually you just want to snap and tell them all to <deleted>! tell them all to <deleted>! If anyone I do not know tries to talk to me when I am eating, that's what I would do. I remember a few times when I am eating in an all you can eat buffet, I have been approached by an attendant while I am eating and asked for my ticket, I just tell them in Thai to come back later.

mauGR1 Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 From what i have seen on the not so high quality videos, "gang of Thai men attacked by American soldier" seems to be a more appropriate headline. As much as i dislike street fighting, it's kind of refreshing to see the pack sent packing for once Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right, it's a joke.

bkk6060 Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 True maybe odd story: I was walking thru the mall today and some US guy approached me and asked: Hey, you hear about that soldier that got beat up? Uh, yeah so?? He says: Why didn't other white guys help him? I would have gone in there and kicked everyone's A. What is wrong with guys here? Now yelling....Why would they not help an American soldier?? A very brief conversation resulted in the fact he is here for the first time, for 2 days. OMG, thanks for the fact he got a phone call and I took off.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Songkran18 Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 It's been a while since I took a stroll on Canal St., Chinatown section of New York city. On that occasion, I did buy a fake Rolex. Chinese merchants there use a different tact; They qualify you then invite you to look at their make-shift catalog full of contraband product. If you make a deal, they retrieve item from secret hiding place, away from NYPD patrol view. My fake Rolex cost me $20 and has served me well as a conversation piece.

wavemanwww Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Lets see the police now have two charges against the Thai vendor. One being assault as he threw the first punch and secondly, breaking copyright laws by selling fake watches which is supposed to be a heavy offense. Oh let me hold my breath if he is charged with either offense.. I'm turning blue now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
