sungod Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 (edited) Apparently he blames the old guy for hitting him, but if you look and pause the video it looks like he is riding one handed, maybe using a phone?

Popular Post Jeremy50 Posted March 31, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted March 31, 2018 So, he is just referred to as a 'scavenger' now. How degrading and dehumanising. Elderly gentleman, Senior citizen, Old man, would all be more polite, appropriate, and respectful. 9 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kannot Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 (edited) piece of sh-it, I do like the way his flying kick ends him up on the floor. I guess this will be another "I should respect the elderly" thread. Edited March 31, 2018 by kannot 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fakename Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 It was just bad luck, that he died after being kicked, and Norwegians freeze to death in Thailand! Amazing Thailand! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sweatalot Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 And would he have aquired the blood infection without being kicked into agony? I think probability is strongly against this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonstarjon Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 Oh that's alright then... No need to feel any human reactions to someone dying after you give them a good kicking. Yeah same feeling as other comments about some old trying to stay independant being called a "scavenger".. This is Thai 4.0 I presume.. This is such a clear representation of where Thailand and its " people" are going in the future. Think the world needs to dust off its plans to develop the Neutron bomb. We might need it sometime. There are countries in the world that really don't deserve an existence with normal people in normal countries of this world. The majority of Thailand needs to go into therapy... Except.. I really believe its already too late. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

captspectre Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 scavenger? the Man has a Name! how did he get the blood infection? did he have it BEFORE he was attacked by the scum bag? or did he get it AFTER he was admitted to the Hospital? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atyclb Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 the man developed complications of being admitted for his initial assault related injuries. elderly people that are immobilized in bed often get infections that can be fatal. not uncommon to get pneumonia after trauma that just broke ribs 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HampiK Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 If I understood the news correct in TV, so the infection occured because he was not able to move anymore after the attacks. So this would mean he died because of the attack. I hear something, that the attacker want to pay 3'000 baht per month for about 27 months.. but not sure if this is correct or not... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milwaukeeboy Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 As a physician, I can attest to the fact that the old guy contracted the infection at the hospital. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stargeezr Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 A blood infection brought on by lying in bed for 2 weeks after having suffered from the beating by the 21 year old jerk. Do not forget that this old guy was active until he was injured. Charge the jerk with murder.. Geezer.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazing Thailand! He didn't "die after being kicked", he was released from hospital after treatment for the attack and taken home. He was taken to the hospital 2 weeks later for treatment for a suspected blood infection form which he died later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
