Having said, right there, that 99% of people from Northern Ireland, meaning from both traditions, are decent, I feel I'm on solid ground in pointing out that the tiny, ignorant minority of loyalists who would travel to faraway countries and feel it necessary to flaunt that implicitly racist flag, associated with centuries of oppression of the indigenous Irish, are precisely the sort of scum who would chop up and, apparently, gift-wrap their Thai bargirl.

I and all my people are deeply informed on this. It is not bigotry to detest bigots.

 

I would think that the descendants of the Anglo Norman people who had been in Ireland since their arrival in 1169, at the invitation of the (deposed) King of Leinster (of Ireland)  Diarmait Mac Murchada, have as much a right to be considered indigenous Irish as the Celts who were roaming about at the time. Using your logic, the Irish peasants who left Ireland for the opportunities of the USA and Canada could be disparaged since they are "newcomers".

 

You could have just voiced your view that the fellow was most likely a lowlife varmint and  pointed out the Chang in his hand and his uniform of a tshirt , shorts and flip flops as evidence, and no one would have disagreed. You could have even mentioned the  tacky tattoo and most would have snickered.   Raising the issue of a flag just distracts. We see Thais display their nazi regalia. That doesn't make them supporters. It just indicates their ignorance.

In this case, we are talking about a loyalist acting in a way that many of us neighbors on the island of Ireland would recognize. Next week there could be a story about a guy from Galway getting blind drunk and walking in front of a truck. At that point, it would be entirely fair for people to note that the Irish do seem to like their drink rather too much.

You have zero evidence of him being a Loyalist. He had the oficcially accepted flag of NI in his window. He was from NI. End of.

 

Does everyone flying the Tricolour automatically become a Provvo?

Absolutely. The Bangkok Hilton. I suspect that he may be there for more than 14 days though.

How the hell did he get out of Thailand?

Police corruption or incompetence?Murderers are let out and divers holding a few sea creatures are imprisoned. What a crazy bloody country.

You say that and yet you know, every bit as well as I do, that no non-Loyalist would EVER place that despised flag in his or her window. Neither would any respectable Loyalist. If anything, they would use the Union Jack.

Claiming that only reveals you to have no intellectual integrity. Well done.

it reveals that I am far more knowledgable about the people of NI than you. Despised flag? Complete nonsense.

Being stoned on Yaba does not let you escape responsibility for the murder. It was your choice to take the drugs.  
     Or did some gang of criminals force the drug down your throat against your will? ?

Sounds a bit like the Red Bull saga, wanted for murder but escapes to another country, is then wanted on an arrest charge.

I wonder which one will be found first?

Well he is wearing Kawasaki race team outfit, or maybe he showed them to go on the fiddle more efficiently.  The next M/C F1 race is in Bahrain end of Nov. just saying.

I see no tattoos or flags. What makes you think that he's a loyalist? if he's gone to ground in the Republic, he's unlikely to be a loyalist. Nice story though.

At the time of his arrest he was shown to be sitting in the back of a police pick up with a large red hand of ulster flag proudly displayed on the bungalow he was renting . It was determined he was a "British man " by the police as at the time as his passport was British with an address in Northern Ireland .

  You may remember some reports in the papers .

 

"Photos of the property yesterday afternoon show the broken pool queue on the blood-covered floor and the machete on the covered pool table. A large Northern Ireland flag was hung at the entrance to the one-story Elliot estate, and police have confirmed that he is from the country"

 

"Brit from Northern Ireland brutally murdered a Pattaya sex worker early on Thursday morning at his home"

Yes. Known as the Ulster Banner, the official flag of NI.

I don't think it's the first time that people have put up "bail" money, been given back their passports and promptly disappeared.

I don't think that people on bail get their passport back, neither that they need it to get out of Thailand.

I was out on 40.000 baht bail, and had my passport with me all the time.

A fact that can be verified by another Thai visa member, who saw me with my passport.

We call them bargirls here, prostitute is rather demeaning.

Rather like the Norwegian thug who murdered the British guy in Phuket and then scarpered somewhere out of Thailand. The police said at the time that bail wasn't a risk because they kept his passport - 555!

 

Or the American who beat an Aussie to death in a Pattaya bar - and simply went back to the US after his arrest and confession. 

 

And so the list goes on and on.

The class of Northern Ireland "Loyalist" who would proudly display a Red Hand of Ulster flag is equivalent to someone in the United States flying a confederate flag from the roof of his trailer home, or an Afrikaner with a swastika tattooed on his forehead.

i have the same Kawasaki shirt he is wearing. 

 

that makes me a "Kawasaki Loyalist".

With the absence of any evidence that he was a loyalist, I don't think that its me that looks foolish.

Read the original report and look at the flag on the bungalow exterior wall he rented . You don't need to be Colombo to see he was a loyalist .

Also read the threads about the article as this was already discussed .

It's okay, no need to verify anything, we believe you.

We're just saying that they usually take murder more seriously than shoplifting.
