TKDfella Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Condolences to the family of the tourist. If the cop is on the run he must feel the killing was unjustified. Have to wait and see reasons etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post HalfLight Posted December 12, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted December 12, 2018 The world's officially gone completely stark staring mad. Are the RTP going to say there was no prior indication this man was a nutjob? Cause a Thai to lose face and they often just completely lose the plot. Who let these ruffians have guns anyway, confront them with someone resolute and they either blast away (if there's more than 3 police), or run away if there isn't. Honestly, this crowd are completely hopeless, they have no clues at all. Always someone else's fault. Stick a needle in his leg so there's one less lunatic in this country. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's obvious even to the Police Chief that the BiB is lawless and need instructions to abide by the law, and what better station to investigate their very own brother cop. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For sure!! This is not a shooting this is murder. Was the officer in uniform? It would appear not as mentioned the officer was unarmed until a gun was borrowed. Did the tourist know that he was the Police? The policeman was GFs ex boyfriend so presume the victim knew about him, hence the argument/fight .

Nyezhov Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 So now we know: 1. It was a personal matter over a woman. 2. The perpetrator just happened to be a cop. 3. Booze was involved. 4. Testosterone was involved. Seems to me that the folks bashing the BIBs here have egg on their faces. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for my award! Actually I would never apologise for thuggish, brutish, evil behaviour, whosoever it comes from, and certainly not if it comes from Thai people. However, yes I do enjoy replying to silly posts that make ridiculous generalisations about Thai people, just as I would for generalisations about Brits, Aussies, Muslims etc etc. Edited December 12, 2018 by brewsterbudgen 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did the tourist know that he was the Police? The policeman was GFs ex boyfriend so presume the victim knew about him, hence the argument/fight .The other question is did the cop know she was seeing another man ? He may have just found out Thai woman will often go with a farang even though has a thai man And no not just hookers 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xylophone Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 23 minutes ago, Easy Come Easy Go said: If you look at Western nations, like the US for example, the police are like a mafia in some respects. The work together and have a brotherhood mentality, where they will cover the tracks for each other where possible. Couple that aspect with the fragile male ego here and the "loss of face" scenario and you have a volatile mix. And an enquiry found them to be the most corrupt government agency in Thailand. So if you think you are safe with these corrupt, gun toting, fragile ego'd specimens around, you are sadly mistaken. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
