Lao Khao in action.

Stay away from that stuff and the people drinking them. Especially the dark stuff

"A" in full face helmet was taken to the Dinosaur Mai (new) market in Khao Noi in downtown Hua Hin yesterday for a reenactment. 

So did they keep the victim around for the day for the reenactment... or was their a stand in who was stabbed to death in place of him.

You got half of it.  They switch to acid attacks, knife attacks, strong-arm attacks, but the point is, that the UK is a lot more murderous than those in the USA.

 

Murder statistics are readily available for every country.

 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_intentional_homicide_rate

 

United States 5.30 murders per 100,000/year
Thailand 3.24 murders per 100,000/year
United Kingdom 1.20 murders per 100,000/year

 

So the statistics say that the US is 4 times more "murderous" than the UK.

Yet strangely, there are twice as many firearms deaths in the US per 100,000 people as there are in Thailand:

If you blindly accept that countries like Thailand can accurately capture the numbers -- even though they can't put two pieces of PVC pipe together without leaking -- then, you might want to think about it.

 

No statistics in Thailand are reliable - one for their lack of competence and two for their vested interest in lying to keep tourists coming.
