Popular Post bluesofa Posted June 12, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted June 12, 2018 It will be a field day with 1,000 pretties and probably the same number of officers hanging around for Thailand's biggest-ever photo opportunity. If it takes place in Bangkok, the press photographers will have to stand somewhere near Nakon Nowhere to get everyone into the shot. It must make it into the Guinness Book of World Records. 3 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Sir Dude Posted June 12, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted June 12, 2018 (edited) There is a tsunami of gambling going on here and it can't be stopped...the locals like to have a flutter. Might as well give up on trying to enforce such antiquated laws from the killjoy brigade, tax it instead and stop making criminals out of otherwise pretty normal people. Oh...and whilst your at it, let it go on the prostitution thing to, same thing and not going away either.

Yes it makes criminals out of normal people ,sometimes the guys have no money to cover their bet and resort to robbery and stealing to make sure their arm or leg is not broken.

Oh...and whilst your at it, let it go on the prostitution thing to, same thing and not going away either. Killjoy brigade? Perhaps you could mention that many many Thai youngsters are addicted to football gambling for big money and end up in massive debt and then get into other not good activities to try to pay off their debts, including steal from their parents, just one more big gamble which if it pays off will bring the funds to settle their debts, but no such luck just a bigger debt. When my Thai son was at university he got harassed several times because he wouldn't loan big money to his class mates so they could pay off the football / gambling debts. He stood his ground until they realized they needed to find another source of cash to pay their debts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anon4637435435 Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 Gambling is illegal? Police never knocked on my neighbours doors but know full well whats going on. Chasing pretties? Idiots or perhaps its an ego thing with most bib being uglies. If you catch them. Send em to my house. Ill punish them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Deerhunter Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 So, when they say they have warrants to arrest a thousand girls, does that mean that they know the names of a thousand girls that they want to arrest? Or, does it just mean that they think there might be a thousand girls breaking the law and they might arrest them if they see them? Sometimes I have my doubts about when journalists or police say they have arrest warrents. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

connda Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 (edited) Imagine a Thailand where the police put the man-power involved in busting 'morality crimes' such as gambling, and instead apply those man-hours to putting police in patrol cars and monkey-hammering Thai motorists who thumb-their-noses at Thai traffic laws? Can you imagine a Thailand like that where Thailand is no longer even in the top-10 most dangerous roads of in the world? 10 to 1 you probably can't.

There's a queue formed already. I'll bet they've all got two hands to point. Oops, that's a cert, not a bet (apart from the amputee of course - the RTP being an equal opportunities employer.)

Khun Paul Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 What with the latest edict about criminal checks at Road Checks ( 50 years behind the rest of the world ) and looking for these pretties, just shows how bloody idiotic the RTP really are.

LawrenceN Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 They were hired as models. Show up, do your makeup, smile, flirt a bit. Cops should be going after the organizers. Not that hard to find the advertisers, webmasters,etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post madmitch Posted June 13, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted June 13, 2018 Could the real reason be that the BIB want to crackdown on local online gambling sites as it's interfering with their own gambling businesses and the tea money from the established street-bookies? 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Misterwhisper Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 (edited) Better start preparing an entire wing at the high-security Women's Correctional Facility... for it soon will be filled to the brim with pretties, the hardened criminals that they are.
