Isaan sailor 6253 Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Anyone else see the hypocrisy of a representative of the US Government giving advice and help to border police? Now estimated over 2 million illegal aliens have come across the US southern border in the last 12 months. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Tracy 1383 Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Why does the US need to give them this? Thailand is not yet the USA, does not need FIBUA buildings for its police. It just encourages US style 'policing' in Thailand. Stay away. You did enough damage in the 60s and 70s... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently they are mainly Indian, brown not red. Ukraine should not let in any Russians but the US should welcome everyone from Mexico and Guatamala.
