Popular Post globalspark Posted January 22, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 22, 2022 Sad state of affairs in what should have been defused early in the night.Judging by the photos the rooms are in a cheap part of town and Farangs on a low budget.as I was not there I cannot pass judgement but I would not have been happy listening to the music all night long and more so if I had to go to work next day which is the case for the locals. We do not realise how cheap life is in some countries and pissing of a local over some stupid issue can result in exactly what happened.We have all been guilty over some stupid issue like a taxi ripping us off from the airport, a shop owner not giving the correct change. Sometimes it is best to suck it up and say sorry and move on. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Mac Mickmanus Posted January 22, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 22, 2022 2 minutes ago, The Hammer2021 said: There is a fair concensus of people here not insinuating but voicing the opinion the farang ignored repeated requests to turn their music down and at about 3am got attacked, deservedly so. I think people agree a good beating was in order not decapitation. If the farangs had turned their music down and showed some respect this incident would not have happened. That is what they think may have happened , which doesn't mean it actually did happen . Some people may think the felangs were asked to turn the music down , although that is just what they think might have happened . Some people are suggesting it was correct to attack the felangs ,because they think the Thai guy may have asked the felangs to turn the music down ? Facts are needed , not peoples insinuations 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Siamwhiteelephant Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 "... murdered by scythe" "... loud music blamed". Only people can murder and be charged, not inanimate objects or sound. 'With' and 'triggered' would be among suitable words to use with these extraneous things. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get a little too comfortable. Maybe it isn't the case, here, but it seems so in many of these farang-Thai confrontations (I put up a reminder about a similar story of a young British man who was chased by a Thai guy with a knife because the Thai guy wanted the British guy to buy him a beer; but it was taken down for some reason. But it's the same problem. Cultural assumptions and ways of dealing with foreigners that I would never think about fully understanding). The only place to be complacent is inside your own house by yourself. Some rules I follow: avoid crowds, stay off the street late at night, don't go to places that might mix alcohol with any sort of social confrontation. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post jesimps Posted January 22, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 22, 2022 There have been occasions here when loud noise has caused me to come very close to losing my self control. When the bass noise pressure is so powerful that it's acting like a weapon on your brain and no matter where in your house you go, you can't escape it, that's when I can imagine a person could snap. Especially at 3am. I'm not condoning this killing, but I can understand how this guy was driven to lose his rag. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
