Why the majority here are amping up the penalties one can only assume is due to his nationality.

 

Is a-hole now officially a nation state?

I get a kick out of the "We are guests in Thailand" brigade. Really? Do you honestly feel like a guest? 

I feel more like a paying customer. When you invite a guest into your home do you check his wallet first, to make sure he has sufficient $$. We are cash cows who are allowed to graze.

some people do... In USA now Asians are randomly being targeted and viciously attacked... some beaten to death... and this guy, giving the people the finger, not complying with simple common sense rules during a pandemic.. is provoking people to hate... 

[brianthainess]

I went to my local ma and pa shop yesterday, I said to a rather portly Thai lady not wearing one, "no mask eh ?''  she stood berating me while i was being served, I got in my car drove off, and 50 meters away,  there she was in her gateway hands on hips, still berating me as i drove by, oops, up went my middle finger . Just to make it clear I was wearing a mask.

we don't all tar Thai people with the same brush a few do.. do we all have to pay for their actions? oh and by the way farrang get murdered here all the time by Thai's and then get let out after a year or two once the embassies and media lose interest.  Not sure what your point is? should we all just roll over and apologise for being alive because of our race? every race has idiots the difference is we don't single out one race and put them on the front page of the national news any time they do silly stuff like this to demonise them as a whole.

 

Can you imagine them putting on the front page a story about one Chinese guy being caught walking down the road without a mask?.... yeh I don't think so this is racial discrimination.

I would say the deliberate publicising of a trivial event is what is provoking the hate.

It's surely at the instructions of the government who are looking for an easy scapegoat to redirect Thai anger away from their own incompetence.

 

Thai girl murders her husband in the bath ........ nobody cares.

Thai guy rapes hookers ....... police let him go.

White guy walking around without a mask ...... it's the end of the world.

[EVENKEEL]

It's interesting that most of the foreigners who have stayed in Thailand throughout covid are mask enthusiasts when in other countries they are maskless if they choose.

We don't even qualify as guests here.

   I wasn't invited, were you?

   We're more like party-crashers who have barged-in too late and found "A banquet hall deserted, whose lights are fled, whose garland's dead, and all but he departed."

They do have some news on real crooks. A white foreigner murdered his Thai wife and child up north. Does that fit your criteria? Or should we pretend that’s an attack on westerners? 

 

The guy not wearing a mask didn’t kill his wife too did he? Shucks I must have missed that part of the article!

 

..he must be a real news worthy crook then based on your criteria?

[Hanuman2547]

A sad display of actions that most fellow expats do not agree with.  They ask people to wear masks when out in public.  Just do it!.  The guy should be fined.  

[rabang]

This guy looks like a total p***ck but a mask outside on a street is pretty useless anyway. Fanatics spouting their aggression and violent fantasies are just making it worse.

you are correct..

 

why would they put a story like this on the front page when random orientals are being viciously attacked and murdered by strangers? Which is my point - discrimination is much worse in other places... here, they offer him a mask, free of charge. 

 

but, you don't have to put up with it... get out while you can!!

If this character isn’t fully vaccinated, he should wear a mask when in close proximity to others. Show documented proof of full Covid vaccination, or wear a mask. 
  Had my first Pfizer-BioNTech shot for the Wuhan China virus. 
     After I have my second shot and fully vaccinated, that’s the end of masks for me. I’m not wearing masks for the rest of my life once fully vaccinated.  Time to start being free again. 

 

 

In case you weren't watching,, the U.S. CDC says (look into it please), those fully vaccinated can still spread the virus - the vaccine (actually the mRNA payload you've been injected with isn't a vaccine but i digress) does NOT inhibit the spread of the virus, it only (is supposed to) lessens the effect of the symptoms.

Again, look it up, www.cdc.gov

Exactly what us expats need at the moment... Perhaps an "agent" installed by the Thai health minister to prove his point, that all of us "Farangs" are dirty, smelly and filthy subhumans?

that's the best conspiracy theory I have heard today.

[holy cow cm]

Yesterday I was really shocked to see an old white guy walking at the airport Rimping shopping center in CM with no mask on. No mask in sight. He seemed to walk the entire shopping center looking as he exited the rear entrance. Not one person at this place did not have mask on. Quite shocking if you ask me and I am really surprised this foreigner Bozo did not end up in headlines on the news. Talk about stupidity or a self sense of being superior privileged? But on the other hand while driving I saw many Thai on motorcycles and doing road work not wearing them as well. I think an old white foreigner being here in Thailand disregarding the rules just looks way out of place and deserves everything that comes to him or if it is a her. Giving us a bad name.

Yes... look it up.  Good idea.  Tell me....if I’m not infected, and I’m fully vaccinated, how in hell am I supposed to spread Covid?

  When I’m fully vaccinated, I’m returning to normal life. 
We’re now into about the 65th week of the “..”just two weeks to “flatten the curve””. 
Enough is enough.  You don’t like me returning to normal life after I’m fully vaccinated?  Too bad for you. You’re not my dictator. You’re free to continue to wear a face diaper or muzzle if you like. I won’t tell you to stop.  Freedom over fear. 

 
Quote:  “

After warning for months that vaccinated people should still be cautious in order to not infect others, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention suggests they may not be at much risk of transmitting the coronavirus.

“Vaccinated people do not carry the virus — they don’t get sick,” Dr. Rochelle Walensky, director of the CDC, told MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow on Tuesday. That’s “not just in the clinical trials, but it’s also in real-world data.”

Walensky was referring to a new CDC study that suggests those fully inoculated with the vaccines produced by Moderna and Pfizer don’t transmit the virus. Researchers looked at how the shots protected nearly 4,000 health-care workers, first responders, and other essential workers toiling in eight U.S. locations against the virus and more-contagious variants. Following a single dose of either vaccine, the participants’ risk of infection was reduced by 80 percent, and that figure jumped to 90 percent after the second dose. Without infection, people are unable to spread the virus. The results are similar to what scientists saw in clinical trials for the vaccines, which found that two doses of either two-dose vaccine had an efficacy rate of around 95 percent.”

Yes.  Look it up.  Great idea.
