Bday Prang Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 There have always been a number of crazies floating around Pattaya and other places too. So this is probably quite a useful exercise in principal They can deal with a crazy armed Thai however they like, but when dealing with an armed foreigner its unfortunately not that easy to just shoot them, embassies , diplomats, world media and the T.V.F all like to get involved expressing outrage and a major incident soon develops. so it probably is best if these rare occurrences can be handled efficiently and quickly. However I'm not sure trying to take down an armed aggressor by using a long pole is the best solution, bit like taking a knife to a gun fight Its easy for most people to criticise the police in situations when it does kick off big time, just remember that we normally have the option to walk or run away, that is not the case for the police who are obliged to meet it head on For those sensitive souls crying "racism" and "xenophobia" please get over yourselves. Thailand thankfully has not succumbed to the wokeness that will become the downfall of your home countries and hopefully never will, so remember where you are, and leave that @$&*£ at home 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is an ill advised public show of laughable ineptitude that probably stems from the head honcho seeing some other SWAT exercises in the country, and thinking he should get in on the act. If he really wants to make a difference get a couple of dozen of those desk jockeys permanently patrolling Buakow, Beach Road and Walking Street from 9pm to 2 am. If nothing else they could do with losing the weight. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So true, was on a KLM flight out here years ago and 3 guys got ridiculously drunk, abusive and unruly, insulting the hostesses, smoking in the toilet etc. As soon as the plane landed we were told to remain seated and the military clad Thai airport police came on and removed them in handcuffs, to much cheering and clapping from the rest of the passengers. ???? ???? Don't know if others remember this incident but here is a classic from the past, they were harassing and picking fights with anyone they could find as soon as they got to Pattaya. Word quickly spread on the street and they ended up getting a bit more than they bargained for. https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/patrick-molloy-british-holidaymaker-drowns-1470823 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to wonder if there is actually any benefit to this training, other than anti-foreigner propaganda.

roger101 Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 Quote Before moving here 16 years I spent 34 years coming here on holiday, Sometimes twice a year In all that time I have never see a violent incident and it's not as though I didn't spend much of my time in places like Soi Nana and Walking Street. Mind you years ago it wasn't called Walking Street.. I did see attempted violence once in Phuket a Thai lady was trying to brain a guy with a piece of 4x2 for going with another lady. She never caught him. I'm not saying violence doesn't happen but compared to some other countries it is much safer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it is not: in my very personal experience, Thai people can get drunk to death, but I have never seen them ever aggressive, not in the way that we Westerners can be. The only aggressive knife wielding man I have seen in my 32 years here was a Thai fruit vendor on Soi 22 in Bangkok, who created a standoff with the Police for over 30 minutes. Never ever seen such aggression from foreigners here ever. No need to mention all the other unwarranted aggression I have experienced from local Thais including taxi drivers, drunk men in bars etc. Sure, encountered some aggressive foreigners here too but pales into insignificance imo.
