Golden Triangle Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 I really don't know how they can wear the uniform & keep a straight face when we read so many stories like this, surely they have more important jobs to be concentrating on.

I thought bridge and darts have both been illegal in LOS for years. I remember seeing a story of the BiB's arresting old folks for playing that dastardly bridge game, and around the same time all bars were required to remove the dart boards. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caldera Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Ah yes, now that they don't need to raid alcohol-selling restaurants any longer, police finally has the time to deal with real menaces to society. ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'd have taken pool tables too, if they could have fitted them into their truck. Must have a bigger truck now for all these heinous machines. ????

NE1 Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 So why did they allow pool tables to stay and remove dart boards. Is it just another cunning plan they have that us white faces don't get ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikebell Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 Meanwhile deaths on the road top 20,000. 'A team from the Pattaya City Police led by the new Police Chief Colonel Kunlachart Kunlachai investigated the area in front of the toilets.' How many were in the team? How many lives might have been saved had the BIB allocated half a team to watch traffic lights? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
