Megasin1 Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 Guys be very careful out there on the streets, take your water dousing like men and don't wear a cajoule, raincoat, or any form of plastic covering as the wearing of body armour is a severe crime in Thailand and you could end up on here, paraded in front of the world as a heinous criminal.

It is sposed to be a fun time, not something that arss holes can take special pleasures in. I got a high pressure water shot in the ear during Songkran in Chiang Mai. Really NOT funny. Worried about my ear for a while, but it was okay. I used ear plugs for the rest of Songkran, just too much fun even in my 60’s to stay in my residence. I feel so much younger during Songkran. But I guess you might want to wear a protective pair of high impact sunglasses as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkkgriz Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 April fools day was 10 days ago. But then again, every day brings a new chance for the TRT to make fools of themselves. 10 years in prison and a million baht fine for water guns? Speechless. What is the fine for having a real gun illegally? 500 baht? What's next? A decade in the Bangkok Hilton for selling SomTam that isn't spicy enough.

NeilSA1 Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 Thailand is too frightening - can not live in Thailand, despite all the good things. Can never feel absolutely safe. There are far too many ridiculous enforcements of twisted rules - arresting of bridge players, mushroom pickers... Next, people will be arrested for farting (air pollution) or burping (noise pollution) or breathing (oxygen thieves) - too weird and unsettling. There is an ancient saying that is so true - The more corrupt the state, the more numerous the laws. -- Tacitus, 56-120 A.D. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post fantom Posted April 11, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted April 11, 2018 Yes, utter stupidity, but very much an own goal. Thai people are not going to forget that a phalanx of heavily armed police and army descended on this poor woman, probably wrecked her small business and she is now in fear and trembling of a million bht fine and 10 years in prison. There is something very nasty about this when the state appears to be bullying and intimidating it weakest members. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In this case they nailed a person who imports them and profits from their sale. Yes, there were only 192 seized, but I can assure you that there were others. This is called making an example case to serve as a deterrent to others. The foreigners on thsi forum scream and cry about these weapons. Now that the police act, they are insulted.
