I was led to believe 'cock fighting' was something they did at English public schools or the Officer's mess.

 

I may be wrong of course.

The Hi rollers left their Ferraris at home then????

[mikebell]

What a waste of police time!  There's next to nothing in it for cops in the way of 'fines'.  Wouldn't all these officers be of more use arresting drunk, speeding red light runners?

I’ve seen roosters fighting in rings while driving!  The ring is 5 meters from the road.  If falang can see….anyone can see.   
 

we’ll need members to do an undercover cock fighting investigation..

 

no not Pattaya ladyboys!!!    Falang…..highest social standing, vetted to meet Q. Elizabeth for any occasion……or not.

Gambling bad, cockfighting good.

The blackjack and roulette are cleverly disguised, and the high rollers were on dress down day

How is that possible?? No sex industry  in Thailand, no gambling dens, no drugsdealers, and no drugs... if you believe the RTP and authorities...At the corner of my street there are daily many time even in broad daylight drugs sold, and with a checkup a few months ago, they told that our area was drugsfree.. Even the head of the village knew nothing and he lives a few hundred miles away....A karaoke bar/restaurant with almost none customers every day, closed for months in the past year, is expanding.... Where is the money coming from??. But who cares?? And now there are gambling dens everywhere in Thailand?? How come ..??

"Illegal" in the sense the RTP weren't running it?
