Destiny1990 Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 No wai for him and a 500 bht fine! Instead He isin jail and will have to pay all medical costs and lawyers fees plus additional compensation for the victim before he can even think about getting out of jail. Doesnt work the other way round. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadanava Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 The American guy took a signpost of this Thai guy from the meeting point stand, and refused to give it back to the Hotel guide. The Thai guy followed him and asked about this, he merely stopped the guy to ask him a question. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The American was assaulted by the Thai guy who refused to let him pass so it resulted in a self defense take down. Let's get the news right and hope the Judge can see through the fake news reporting. It's always good to look at both sides and don't take for granted what's in the news. From the video alone we cannot know the whole story. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We only see an excerpt of the event. It's always best to see the entire event. "We only see an excerpt of the event. It's always best to see the entire event." This is the real problem with TVF News. Its more like TVF Detective School, just enough information to arouse interest and get the comments started. You would think after years of this we should get better at this game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Thai was touching him in the chest which is technically an assault so I would argue self defense which this Farang is NOT doing. Stupid ****, No ? The Thai can negotiate the highest restitution payout at this point of proceedings, Sure ... ! "The Thai was touching him in the chest which is technically an assault ...." Is that factually / legally true or just your convenient opinion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacko45k Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 (edited) Seems odd that right at the beginning of the clip the Thai guy had the sign in his hand and was impeding the American guy. Nevertheless the American then proceded to attack him. Odd... Edited April 18, 2018 by jacko45k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has nothing to do about looks, but about their attitude. There are a lot of the me, me crowd, and this guy was pissed that his flight was cancelled. He takes out his frustration on the Thai fellow, then tries to buy his way out of trouble, That is suspicious, which makes me believe he is not mental, except in immaturity. Jerk deserves what ever he is going to get in the court. Geezer Judging from afar, without proof of anything.

Psimbo Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 American man beats down Thai man and gets Thaigeezer sympathy, Brit man beats wife to death and gets Thaigeezer angst.

Popular Post Dustdevil Posted April 18, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted April 18, 2018 (edited) A lot of you are bigots saying this character was violent simply because he's American. I'll remind you that almost every issue of TV has stories of farang men of all nationalities beating on somebody. It has nothing to do with nationality. And by the way, the term "Ugly American" never had anything to do with describing the behavior of Americans. The term came from the novel and movie (released in 1963 with Marlon Brando) relating to U.S. diplomatic failures in Southeast Asia in the 1950s and early 1960s. My very good friend, a woman from Chiang Mai, married an Aussie, went to Oz with him and he proceeded to beat on her and she finally wound up in a hospital. Meanwhile look at the behavior of two of Australia's Hollywod ex-stars. Shall we start a "typical Commonwealth" type? How about a typical British football hooligan? Any more stereotypes? I think the closest to the true stereotypes are the newly middle class Chinese tourist groups. Edited April 18, 2018 by Dustdevil 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not a typical anything, it's an infantile man who has no control over himself, I suspect he will have some time to learn humility. The UK also seems to have its fair share of violence at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
