Popular Post HSMAN Posted February 24, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted February 24, 2019 (edited) Just saw a violent arrest happen at suvarnabhumi airport. 5 tourist police, on 5”3, slim build, Asian male. All I have to say is, disgusting. Their training is below sub par. No cover, contact procedure. Just all in like a bull in a china shop. Could have been a lot worse, as one of the officers Sigs popped out of that piece of shit holster from the local market, landed right at his finger tips before an passenger picked it up and secured it. I have to say, it’s frightening that they’re the police. I do appreciate Australian police, 1000x better trained.

Popular Post Ulic Posted February 25, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted February 25, 2019 I have seen a half dozen interactions between police and the public under difficult circumstances. Police were very patient and calm. I was actually very impressed with their restraint. Not sure the circumstances of the interaction you saw. A theft, drunk and disorderly, threatening. It sounds like you saw the end of the encounter but no context. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once you leave the Plaza , Central, or any kind of oversized shopping Mall with Famous Name Brands and eateries to impress , you are in a third world country. You will trip on the pavement within 5 mins or smash your head on a pole if you don't watch your step. You will see rats scurrying around your feet while you enjoy your famous Thai street food, and god help you trying to cross the road in a "world famous Family Resort" such as Pattaya.

oldrunner Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 You sound like a true DOLT. Get out of the cab, push your wife to the Airport Entrance and call Airport security, as you run with your wife. Don't worry about his screaming. You know he's a crook, don't stand for it.

Could it have been Immigration Police or Airport Police? Regardless of the semantics the criticism misses the point of the post - An arrest, a frackas, a gun (whatever the type) fell to the floor next to the perportrator... That the ‘Tourist Police’ carry guns and what brand is irrelevant - 5 members of a police force talked a guy an dropped his gun... Quite concerning... Even more concerning is that the Police here are trained to carry their guns with a round chambered (or at least the Thai Police Guys I know who’s guns handled (please, no pun intended) are trained in this manner).

HSMAN Posted February 25, 2019 Author Share Posted February 25, 2019 Nearly every response on this discussion has given me a slight form of autism. I feel that a majority of you lack any sort of analytical reading. The post is merely stating what I observed, and how dangerous it could have turned out to be. The fact an officers firearm and holster landed at the offenders fingertips and had to be secured by a passenger is quite concerning. But, you cynical old knobs love a good off topic shit stir. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thai police have always been polite, UK police are even better not armed ,address you as Sir unless you are violent, whatever the crime you may have committed, 2000x better trained.
