Popular Post anon789561 Posted April 3, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted April 3, 2018 so what i think has happened is some guys got into an altercation for some reason, whatever the reason. a local (as in from that soi) has come out and shot a few rounds in the air to break it up. happens in my area pretty often at the beach. no harm done it seems. i reckon the shop opened up straight after depending how close it was to their normal closing hours 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geriatrickid Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 Not surprised. In Hua Hin, the Bandidos MC clubhouse s 50 meters from a school and 200 meters down the road from the provincial court house. Violence and criminality is an accepted part of the social fabric.

They obviously never saw the training video Surviving Edged Weapons that shows that even when armed with a holstered gun a machete welding nut can kill you from a distance of 30 feet before you get off a shot.
