I think if covid has taught us anything, it's that a lot of people, perhaps most, think they are special, the rules don't apply to the and they, or their friends/family, couldn't possibly have covid, ever.

And would prefer not to live the rest of their lives in a state of constant fear locked in their homes. Big assumption that its fear that keeps everyone inside. Some stay inside to make sure it won't get worse and more measures are needed. I certainly don't worry much when i go shopping I just wear mask follow the rules ect. We know that it spreads easy in bars and such. I rather have the numbers come down so more severe measures are not taken. Call it responsibility instead of fear. But that sounds a lot less denigrating to the others then fear. As for those who think covid is any worse then the flu then if they are so sure let them get in close contact with some infected people and try it out for themselves. I remember the American that died from catching it during a Covid party. I am sure he revised his opinion just before he died. 34 1 2 1

In Thailand no laws apply to anyone who has a few hundred baht in their pockets (or an important friend/family member). The m/c helmet laws, and drink driving laws certainly don't apply to me. Thai MPs certainly don't appear to have any problems with drinking and parties at any time of the day or night. 28 1 2 2

I can clearly hear that you are not a farmer. My cows have told me that there are no racist pigs. On the other hand they agree with that foreigners are no good, as they prefer to end up like laab or nam tok moo. 2

All Thai's do so only foreigners left. Force foreigners breaking restrictions to take a 1 year USD 100,000 health insurance which covers covid-19 or prove that they have 3.3 million baht in cash in a Thai bank account, or deport them if they refuse. The way that the delta is spreading across the kingdom I think I would welcome being deported my Thai GF can take care of my property while I’m away 1
Thomas J Posted July 20, 2021 Posted July 20, 2021 Don't order any vaccines to truly protect people but surely be diligent in arresting them if they are drinking alcohol. Yesterday I went to a restaurant and noticed several customers with beer bottles on their tables. Inquired of the waitress, she indicated yes they were Heineken zero alcohol. Now tell me, how them removing their masks to drink the non-alcohol beer was any less likely to transmit Covid than if they were drinking the identical beer with alcohol. 2
