Pattaya Teenagers Brag About Weapon Collection on Facebook, Get Arrested

[webfact]

 

Two eighteen-year-old teens living in Naklua got a major surprise when they were awakened by Pattaya police knocking on their door earlier this week.

 

The wake-up call came after the teens had posted on public Facebook groups bragging about their small arsenal and how nobody should “mess” with them. The post alarmed many netizens on social media who reported the post to police and various online reporting portals for law enforcement.

 

Banglamung police managed to track down the two teens with assistance from cyber crime police. Led by Pol. Col. Nawin Sinthurat, superintendent, and Pol. Lt. Col. Sompom Summat, police raided the apartment of the young men earlier this week in the early morning, waking them up.

Who remembers the hi-so Airforce Cadet who's Facebook posts were ignored until he blew his abused girlfriend and his own worthless entitled butt away earlier this year. 

 

The law here needs a severe leveling up. 

 

But this is still a good result, it just needs to apply to the elites as well. 

 

There are individuals here who've got clean away with murdering off-duty police in a crowded nightclub.

"Banglamung police decided not to charge the young men at the end of the day as the firearms were not real and the young men were apologetic and turned them over to their parents, who they still lived with..."

 

This part was conveniently left out of this copied Pattaya News article.

I wonder if the rifle and pistol were real or "BB guns"?

 

Either way, silly boys!

[Regyai]

Two toy guns and a tawdry array of 'meh' blades and 18years old!

 

I know I'm from another era and from the UK but even so that would have been the general prevail of primary school boys.

Turn them over to the parents who they still live with. 

How they got that way is squarely on the parents.  Ability to have kids but no idea how to raise them which I will be the first to admit is a tough job no one had the perfect answer but from what I've seen 20 years here within the poor very common,  once they learn to ride a motorbike off you go. 

Just last night my son said daughter in law parents upset at you. Why?  I couldn't hold my opinion basically told them off,  their 13 year old son blew up their motorbike so now they walk no money to rebuilt guess they felt if mention it we would help out. Mother said can't stop him! 

This is what I usually hear out of their mouth because no one ever taught them no one ever criticize them.  

I said this is expected I pointed it out when he was five would turn out like this cause I have a CD on Thais. just look at your daughter she basically raise him pass on all her bad habit to him which all learn from them. 

 

You can't do anything to stop him from taking the bike?  

How about not letting him access to the key.  He is just getting started save eveR baht earned instead of everyone drinking and karaoke cause two things next you get a call and accident or some girl parents 15 come with news she pregnant. To solve problem family want 50,000 baht and basically you just purchase a slave to come live with you.  If you really lucky the first thing happens you get a call he's dead and a farang was involved. 

Sure these two might learn but don't hold your breath. It started way before they were 18.
