Popular Post swm59nj Posted June 4, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted June 4, 2022 Unbelievable something like this would happen here. From reading some posts on the forums. One would think this type of violence , or any violence, doesn’t happen in the land of smiles. In reality numerous violence ,robbery, and murders happen pretty much every day here. Maybe not mass type issues. But what about on the news. Groups of locals attacking a single individual with sticks and/ or knives. Seems fairly common here. A number of people attacking one individual. Isn’t that technically a mass type issue ? But these individual incidents sure add up over time. And here most of these incidents are not caused by mental health issues. They are caused by immaturity, ignorance, desperation, and jealousy. Its interesting that probably some people that bash the west. Say on the forums don’t cross the Thais. You don’t know what they can do to retaliate. If you have noisy neighbors for example. Don’t try talking to them to resolve it. Just move. If it happens again. Just keep moving. Sounds like a number of people live in fear of the locals. But they are quick to just bash and pass judgment on the West. Maybe because in reality they just happen to hate their home country. I’m kind of surprised no one posted yet saying this particular incident was influenced by the USA. Violent acts are not based on where the person is from . It’s based on the individual themselves. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aussieroaming Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 RTP saunter over to the scene of the crime the following morning. No need to secure the crime scene to stop evidence being removed, nor any need to process the scene before any potential rainstorms wash away evidence. Must have been a low value mass murder event. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When boys are not disciplined you get what we read about every day in Thailand - thugs and partner-beaters or murderers who react with violence when someone actually answers them back in adult life. Hardly rocket science. But treating boys as Thais do is deeply ingrained into the culture and a section of men-children will inevitably act as they do. I have a four year old nephew, naturally - as is the culture - being raised by his grandmother as his parents are too busy to be parents. I was at the house one evening when he took exception to something his grandfather said and he pretended to attack him with a knife. How long before he uses a real one? Yet nothing was said to the young thug. My wife said he'd grow out of it. Really? You can read his future in neon lights. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Violence, robbery and murder happen everywhere, I don't think Thailand is particularly bad though obviously it's not all peace and harmony. Much of this, as in all countries, is fuelled by inequality, poor education, dead end jobs or indeed just no job. Drugs and alcohol add to the problems. .

The bouncer was hit in the chest as he tried to stop the violence. Sounds like a scene of total carnage. How does someone get two lethal stab wounds to the back of the head? Beaten to the floor and then stabbed in the back of the head? Complete psychopath. And Lee got a gun and started shooting, killed the bouncer for nothing, and still died from a knife wound? Horrible about the bouncer as well. What a complete waste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like a number of people live in fear of the locals. But they are quick to just bash and pass judgment on the West. I think what it comes down to is day-to-day things, without any catalyst, Thai people can be very kind and peaceful. Whereas often in Western countries it seems like people want to mess with others just for fun. The problem is that it is a lot harder to know what type of person you are dealing with in Thailand and when things go south they can do so very quickly and there isn't much support, if any, for foreigners. Personally, I would pick day-to-day interaction in Thailand over the West, but western responses if something did turn violent. I guess you need to think about which you are more likely to encounter. I think a lot of Thais feel the same about being careful in case people lose their <deleted> if they complain about them. Although they seem to be able to sleep through anything.
