BritManToo Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 7 hours ago, mvdf said: Mental impairment as a defense to justify diminished criminal liability is just as much a quackery as lobotomy being an accepted surgical intervention decades ago. It's an insult to the life and dignity of the dead victim. Escaping accountability by claiming voices inside one's head were the culprits behind the act is a cheap excuse. If you take or end someone's life, you forfeit your liberty or your right to enjoy waking up to a new day with your peers. You don't have to do what the voices tell you. Mine always say 'kill everyone' ........ just say no. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Early last year there was an elderly Thai gentleman,Vicha Ratanapakdee, who was murdered in San Francisco by a racist Black 19 year-old punk named Antoine Watson. So, it will be interesting, comparatively-speaking, to see what happens in that case and the one here. I do know that almost every law-abiding San Franciscan was outraged by Watson's crime. And, to be quite frank, I personally hope they throw the book at him. His next appearance in court, as I understand it, will be on the 23rd of February.

sawadee1947 Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Well, it's a horrible and sad story. However, there are two Brits drinking the hell out of them. Disturbing the neighbours with loud voices. Disturbing with loud music, probably Western kind of. Didn't respect that the neighbours got a right to sleep. Didn't want to stop making noise even when asked to. In our countries police would stop it or even invite them to spend a night in a dry-up cell. But Thailand ist different. And the two Brits didn't realize yet or being ignorant to foreign culture and customs. Of course that is no excuse for any murder or violence. But the bad behaviour of the two Brits caused the desaster finally. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sambum Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 8 hours ago, Gottfrid said: What a bunch of bull it is in this thread. See it clearly! If a person had been doing thee same in England, they would also make him undergo tests regarding mental health. Most probably that would result in a different sentence and treatment for his problem. Why all the need to complain over the Thai system and how can Thailand become so bad, when they are just doing the same? That knowledge and education as well as fuse and behavior is not same in different countries, we already know. That is something we have to take into consideration before relocating. Not saying it´s right, but no one can come here and think it will work like they are used too. We have to accept the people here, and adjust to the ways people are used to live and do things. All too often we hear the old excuse "It wasn't my fault - I was high on drugs - I need help". Not just in Thailand, but many of the so called developed Western world countries (especially the nanny state where I come from) have this breed of "person" (and I use the term loosely) who seem to think that they can use drugs as an excuse for their intolerable behaviour once they are caught and brought to book for it. Nobody forced them to stick a needle in their arm, and nobody forced them to act so irresponsibly with a total lack of respect for others, and the law, so it's not help they need - it's giving them the type of "education" they deserve that they need that may deter them from reoffending! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobBKK Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 (edited) A Thai without mental problems would NEVER hurt anyone, obviously! it can only mean one thing... the boy was sick, didn't know what he's doing, society should try to understand him - I'm almost in tears writing this.

One night about 2am they were partying and out of the blue one of them started banging on our gate and shouting "<deleted> you Falang"!

What bad behaviour - IF the Brits were loud this is only something which happens everywhere in this country. Want to know what caused the murder ??? a mentally deranged person who has never received any treatment or help and who should have been under supervision. The Brits didn’t cause their own murder - the authorities did by allowing someone so mentally unstable the freedom of public movement when they are clearly dangerous and a thread to society.
