Popular Post sniggie Posted July 24, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 24, 2021 I very rarely comment on this sort of post but I cannot believe what I see here. I have travelled to many countries throughout the world and I have never, never ever behaved in this sort of manner in any of the places that I have visited, including the country from which he would appear to hail from. The matter of the mask isn't really relevant, it's how you behave in someone else's country, I have lived in Thailand for more than ten years now and I always remember that I am a guest in the kingdom. What on earth gives this person the right to be so offensive? He should be under no illusions that the majority of visitors to the country are appalled at his behaviour. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BritManToo Posted July 24, 2021 Share Posted July 24, 2021 Just now, Zikomat said: This is not my experience with the Thais. Looks like, for many of them the word ‘farang’ is not solely and strictly reserved for the “white” people. Because you have limited Thai language ability, you miss the implied insult of calling you a thing (no Khon) and not a person (Khon). Some of us understand Thai quite well. Guy should have put a mask on until he was served then taken it off again. Arguing in Thailand is pointless, unless you're prepared to shoot to kill over the matter. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blacksuitdandruff Posted July 24, 2021 Share Posted July 24, 2021 Did Clarence at least enjoy his Taco Bell? Hopefully he didn't eat too much hot sauce before spending hours at the popo station. Only if Clarence didn't try to defend himself to the blue shirt "Ken," he might have not been caught and could have enjoyed his toilet at home instead. ???????? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaneko86 Posted July 24, 2021 Share Posted July 24, 2021 Police looking for money online and fining people retroactively for an almost non crime. I heard about this story last or 2 weeks ago and some said the other guy in the fight approached the American while he was at the table already and ready for eat telling him to wear a mask. I am not condoning his stupid attitude but that such a think get fined, becomes a police case and is newsworthy is absolutely ridiculous!!! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont ever go on sites like this but my friend saw this and thought it was funny(created this account just to reply). I did not pay any fine. They set this up to scare all the farang they made that clear. We sat talked for 15 min and after they bought me starbucks from next door to the police station and we went our seperate ways. They just asked if i could be on the pics so the farang would get spooked about mask. Im even the one that drove my self with them in my truck to the station so we could talk. This was some show they wanted to put on and like i said i didnt get fined so all of the guys that are debating if its fair or not dont waste your time. Nothing came out of this besides a free cup of starbucks. But i will say in two months im out of here this country is dead and the people are not in great shape and to even help like give out food (for free mind you) the local gov is worried about work permits before you can set things like that up. It seems the road to recovery is going to be long and full of opens and closes here in thailand so im out. I spend at times up to 8000usd a month here. I know in terms of the whole pie it means nothing but if all the spenders leave this place its sunk. I repeat im not leaving because of this taco bell incident. But in a few months im def out of here the road to recovery looks too long for me. Other countries are already in full swing already. Anyway cheers. Letting you know what happened since media likes to create a story lol. That groveling apology must have stung your pride huh? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you would generously let someone steal your mobile phone without demanding legal action because others have done it before and got away with it? I don’t know where “Around here” is but I don’t see many people not wearing a mask. Work on your self esteem or go back home. You’re a white man; you’re the most privileged species in this world. This whining “us poor farangs are bashed all the time” is pathetic. Just this morning on beach road in Pattaya, I seen many white farangs, or Vanilla men, wearing their mask in correct or not at all. Now tgat I know a video can get them some attention, perhaps its worth sitting on the beach recording them and sharing on social media. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
