Nonsense post, sorry.  Doesn't make any sense.  

 

Are you married to a Thai lady?

Yes - been together for 10 years but that's irrelevant. All I am saying is calm down - all this talk about "blood up the walls" with your blessing is a bit over the top for me.

Probably dealing with another drunk farang at the other door.  Come on, they have to put up with a lot of nonsense.  If a woman lashes out then I'll respect their feeling of vulnerability. 

These women are not "educated modest and decent" paragons of virtue that your wife appears to be. They are "working girls" and as such, as I have said before, they should be capable of handling over zealous customers in a more appropriate way than breaking a pool cue over their heads! And I am not saying that any Tom. Dick or Abdul can grope them to their hearts content, but "feelings of vulnerability" will have gone out with the garbage with the first used condom wrapper!

Very disappointed. She did not hit him hard enough.

Kuwait is a dry country, and as a Muslim drinking is forbidden, even in Thailand. He was very foolish to make that statement.

Whether they're ladies of the night or not makes no odds.  If they feel threatened then they've every right to defend themselves.  

 

Surely the lady dealt with the over zealous customer within reason?  What would you want your wife of ten years to do?  Personally, I want my wife to defend herself.

Not irrelevant in the slightest.  Abdul and Herr Flick are almost certainly not married to Thai ladies.

 

If I ran into problems of my own making in LOS then my wife would pre-warn me that the situation isn't going to end well.  It would be a discreet warning and wholly in my best interests.  If I ignored her advice then that's my own lookout. 

 

Learn to read the signs, sambum.

Just because someone is born in a Muslim country does not make them a practicing Muslim.

...pesky cue-waitees.

don,t know what happened if ctcv was one,now deleted or broken..but i would leave it alone and walk away.it maybe better for your health and holiday.you survived  the attack so that is it

[catman20]

these Thai bar girl and motor bike taxi drivers are fxxxxxxg bullies id love to see the low life bar girl hit some Thai taxi driver over the head with a pool cue, he would wipe the floor with her, they only do this to farang cos 1 they know the farang really cant do much about it 2 if the farang hit her back he would be jumped by 10 of the animals or 3 get nicked by the police. the less one has to do with these animals the better off you are.

Two options here.if it was the arabs fault there's a working cctv.if it was the bargirls fault then the cctv was not working.

those two two options are available anywhere there is a cctv camera whether an arab or girl or not; more often than not it is the latter

Was it a 16 or 19 ozs cue, I bet it had a blue diamond tip on it

Thai lady is angry ,rude and most likely lying.

The foreigner is polite, gentle and probably honest.

Thai lady should be charged for assault with weapon and if owner of bar should know better and should show respect to customers at all times.

If she is owner or manager of bar, bar should be closed for 3-6 months.

I await to hear the results after the police investigation.

So, you are saying angry and rude makes you a liar; while polite and gentle makes you a truth teller?

So, half the bar poured you a watery drink, or half the bar thought you were wrong enough to fight you?

"Vigilantism" and  "Mob Law" are the rule of thumb for Thailand. Taking the law into their own hands may make a difference when an attempted murder or suicide is involved. But overall, this "Mob-law Justice" is an unacceptable part of the ugly underbelly of Thai society. This type of justice has been accepted because the perpetrators of these vigilante type actions, go virtually unpunished (eg. 500-1000 baht fines). (If a farlang were to act in the same manner by beating a Thai lawbreaker, the fines for such actions would undoubtedly be substantially greater. Most likely in the 5000-25000 baht range or maybe more and may include legal prosecution). Vigilantism is the order of the day here in Thailand ("The Land Of Smiles") no matter how wrong it is. Moreover, if the perpetrator happens to be a Farang lawbreaker then that's all the more reason for the thais to get "mobbed-up" so as to exact revenge and vent their hate and jealousy on the white scourge. WRONG, WRONG, WRONG

 

The Thai should have received jail time (2-3 months) for Assault and Battery

Well, I believe most country's legal codes allow for self-defense or defense of another against impending harm. Which may be what the police are trying to establish.

Spot on!

Most Christians don't bother with going to church or adhere to the rules, so why expect all Muslims to be ultra devoted. You can believe in God or Allah but not buy into the "rules."

Well, what you say may be the case. However, I spent 12 years living and working in the Middle East and saw Muslims who visited Thailand and other SEA areas turn into sleazy drunken sexpats, as bad as the worst from any country. Then when back home they put on that pious fundamentalist facade. One group of young Saudis used to show me pictures of the girls they took while drinking and partying in Thailand and the Philippines. One group of Iranians used to take me with them to visit the bars and whores of Tehran. So, yes, they may be jettisoning their religious beliefs; or maybe they are just hypocrites.
