Grumpy John Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 Need a dull day in Thailand! When ever I have seen the prison guards escorting prisoners to a hospital they are never armed....of course the prisoners are handcuffed and in leg irons so there is not a big window for escape!

Do you think perhaps society might want to find out WHY they're rioting before sending in the army to waste them? The reason might well prove interesting. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason might well prove interesting. why do inmates riot in any prison, usually because of the conditions and they want to get out. Prisons are for people who have murdered, done robberies, drug pushers and the likes .... It certainly shouldn't be a nice place for those types but i take your point and know what you mean. Hopefully no officers get injured. imo 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems every time some criminal escapes from one of the Thai police jail cells here, the report of it ends up saying, someone forgot to lock the cell doors and the inmate(s) simply scampered... Forgot to...or perhaps.... were paid to forget. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
