ParadiseLost Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 8 hours ago, Classic Ray said: Taser is the less lethal option of choice in the US and UK now for the police. Not infallible but better than shooting dead with a real gun or “allowing” someone to fall out of a window. Never seen a cop carrying one here, probably put off by the fake bomb detectors they bought a few years ago. Not any more after they kept shocking the hell out of their kids, their buddies, themselves... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacko45k Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 15 hours ago, oxforddon said: Three policeman being unable tor restrain someone has nothing to do with bad training. In the UK it can take 4-6 policemen to restrain a struggling man who keeps thrashing about. It always looks bad in videos and like overkill but anyone who has tried to restrain such a person who is being violent knows the reality. Especially if half of them are required to be women. If they are, they should be 'substantial'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the other hand, I once watched a bobby in Birmingham, who was about an inch taller than a mushroom, tackle and hold down 3 bruisers of African appearance; all by himself. Tough little bugger.

kg1947 Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 Don't blame the Policeman , at their payrate who will risk their safety & life to deal with TRASH like this. I bet now that the screws are tightened for LEGIT RETIREES on low fixed income & NO THB 800,000.- deposit in bank acct. we will see more and more of these trash staying here . BAD PEOPLE - with LOTS of MONEY ... is in abundance , just look at El Chapo GUZMAN - he can put up guarantees in the BILLION$ he can invest in FULL INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX by himself , no need for BANKS to front for him . If Thailand will accept him , the National Debt will be HISTORY , Thailand will be the strongest economically after Singapore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benmart Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 I hope the injured policemen and the tourist recover quickly. The experts on this forum, who likely were not at the scene, aren't Thai police or have any police experience, are certainly welcome to their opinions. Those opinions are seemingly without merit.

British Bulldog Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 For the criticism ... No stun guns, No Kung <deleted> guy, expert Police etc. .... I'm presuming the Police simply wern't prepared for such violent resistance ... I agree with oxfordon, its no joke trying to restrain a big guy who is swinging out in all directions, I've had to to do it myself with others sometimes and it is quite difficult if your trying to restrain him with minimal harm ....

Its always had problems but not like this. No follow up on the farang who recently locked himself into his flat and refused to pay rent. What happened to him?
