You take your chances, they did, they lost. They were in possession of aerosol spray cans which is used to graffiti. They knew they had entered a restricted area. My sympathy for the engine driver and crew who hit them, and to the families of these people who died.

I for one would not go that far, but certainly have no sympathy for them, my sympathy goes to the drivers and those who had to clear up the mess... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G920F using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app I don't think the death penalty is appropriate for graffiti. I think a more appropriate view would be that they had no-one to blame but themselves. EDIT: "...three men in their twenties..."; isn't that a bit old for that sort of nonsense? Let's hope they have not left any children behind. Edited June 19, 2018 by StreetCowboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
