Redoubt Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 The facts are: If he was a U.S. Marine, then he is a trained killer. If he was a combat veteran, then he could be suffering severe emotional disturbances. If he was a mere misfit in the military, then he could have been discharged under "less than honorable conditions"; and is ineligible of US Veterans Administration services. It is prudent that the Kingdom of Thailand deport this individual forthwith; in the interests of public safety. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gk10002000 Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 well at least he was not playing bridge for points with friends. The nerve of those criminals.

This guy sounds like the typical right-wing American gun nut ,and I would bet anything that he has never seen combat in order to get said PTSD. The states don't need it want him ,just throw him in the Thai monkey house and forget him. You couldn't be more wrong.

CrunchWrapSupreme Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 Quite a few posts about getting these American gun nuts out of Thailand. First of all, he merely said he's "got lots of guns". Did they find these guns yet? How'd he get them into Thailand? Or, how's a guy with a teacher's salary go about buying them on the black market? I think it's more likely that many people, especially the mentally afflicted, spout off a lot of nonsense when in difficult situations. Now, to address those deeply concerned about the gun nuts in Thailand. There was that guy in Korat. There was the school director who shot up the gold shop some months back. There's the guy here currently in the Thai Visa news, who shot his ex's new BF. And now currently on the One 31 news, the wife's hearing about a 16 year old loaded up on yaba, who went nuts on his family with a shotgun. These people are all Thais. I believe the posters are in the wrong country, and looking at the wrong people, to be worrying about gun nuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We actually did kick the "chit" out of Vietnam and more would have died, but we pulled out............The human costs of the long conflict were harsh for all involved. Not until 1995 did Vietnam release its official estimate of war dead: as many as 2 million civilians on both sides and some 1.1 million North Vietnamese and Viet Cong fighters. The U.S. military has estimated that between 200,000 and 250,000 South Vietnamese soldiers died in the war. In 1982 the Vietnam Veterans Memorial was dedicated in Washington, D.C., inscribed with the names of 57,939 members of U.S. armed forces who had died or were missing as a result of the war. Over the following years, additions to the list have brought the total past 58,200. (At least 100 names on the memorial are those of servicemen who were actually Canadian citizens.) Among other countries that fought for South Vietnam on a smaller scale, South Korea suffered more than 4,000 dead, Thailand about 350, Australia more than 500, and New Zealand some three dozen.

'we actually did kick the "chit" out of Vietnam and more would have died, but we pulled out.' With the North Vietnamese at the front door and scrambling for the last helicopter. Not a lot to be proud of. A "super power" fighting a non developed country. Quite the contrary. Your Memorial Day highlights the futility of aggression.
