So it appears a paranoid nutter yes .... he was angry because his commanding officer shafted him of 50,000 baht that he was suppose to receive for broker fees on a land sale hence the first shooting, but i suppose he snapped and said enough is enough, i'm out to get anyone and everyone. imo 8 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The authorities will give us a scenario that is going well; on the other hand the truth? well you can sit on it; we will never get it. He posted all the reasons on his Facebook. We know exactly why he did it. As to how he could commit such a horrific act, well that is another question entirely. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaoboi Bebobp Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 Reuters confirms the death of the shooter too. Odd that the above original headline and story did not match. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-thailand-shooting-death/thai-mass-shooter-killed-at-shopping-mall-security-sources-idUSKBN203025 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Yadon Toploy Posted February 9, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 9, 2020 2 minutes ago, Assurancetourix said: I read a story about 50,000 baht .. Who can believe that an individual is going to make a carnage by going to kill strangers in a shopping center for a so-called story of 50,000 baht ... He killed his Mother-in-Law and superior officer because they didn't pay him for a land deal. 3 killings were for revenge. As to the rest of the victims, in for a penny in for a pound right? Didn't matter after the first three as the consequences to him are ultimately the same. He said he went on the rampage to start a war. Most likely meaning some sort of uprising against the rich elites. All clearly stated on his Facebook. 8 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might be time that this government which claims to be responsible, bans facebook in Thailand; one can very well live without; the proof, I do not have a facebook account nor Line, nor Twitter, nor nothing of all this <deleted> which is of no use for that matter. 1 7 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ParkerN Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 "It appears he went mad" A qualified psychiatric opinion no doubt. God, these people... Surely there was a way to disable and capture him without killing him? It seems to me there was enough loss of life already and if he had indeed gone temporarily insane... Oh well, Thais know best. Seems like a pity though. 2 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assurancetourix Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 "It appears he went mad" .. Too easy as an official response. It is also the answer that we read in the newspapers of France when an Islamist yelling "Allah Akbar" kills one or more people with a long knife. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cardinalblue Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 He is in all of us - the definition of man in a technology world... people kill for $5 in a robbery so 50k baht is not surprising.... Don’t blame FB....Facebook is nothing but a platform..the sickos are the ones who watch it and thirst for more...it’s like watching those types of popular movies like Lethal Weapon 5, SWAT 3 or fill in the blank.... our societies and cultures condone and even encourage violence...we answer violence with more violence... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
