Neeranam Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 There but the Grace of God.... I used to drink in Ramkhamhaeng with an alcoholic friend and things often got out of control. Once I stuck a fork in his forehead and he stabbed me with a pizza knife.

Joking about it is all they know. All they're taught about 'history' in school is ancient Thai history - they're not taught anything about the world outside, including WWII, nor about the whole morning that it took for the Thais to surrender to the Japanese. (And that was only because, as soon as the Japanese aircraft attacked, the Thai PM at the time disappeared and couldn't be found for three hours . . . ) Edited August 29, 2023 by robsamui 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really only one factor here, and it's nothing to do with Hitler, it's King Alcohol. I have an old friend in Australia. When he gets to a certain 'alcohol saturation' level he turns real nasty; never violent, just personal ugly abusive. He has several intorductory lines when he starts: e.g. "OK, it's home truths time and I'm gunna tell you all your faults." When he starts one of his introductory lines everybody flees. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Older and Wiser Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 (edited) The swastika, if that's what it was, has a long past. It was popular long before Hitler adopted it and it became a hated symbol. They appear in Budhist and Hindu religions. I remember when I lived in Japan about 30 odd years ago, that the locations of temples were indicated by a reversed swastika. I would also add, as a Filipino resident of 25 years, that such incidents, killing a friend after drinking and getting into an argument, in the Philippines are quite common. I know personally of two cases. In one case, the brother of my now ex-wife (my b-in-l) was drinking heavily with friends. One of his friends pulled a ring off his finger and, horsing around, wouldn't return it. He went home came back with a gun and shot his friend dead. I was even asked to pay Php50k blood money to keep him out of jail. Edited August 29, 2023 by Older and Wiser 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Derek Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 I contend that it's not possible to draw something on someone's head without being pushed away at the very instant of the attempt. Moreover, assuming the drawing was somehow completed, how could he see what it was? (Oh gawd, why do I bother...?) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is such an ignorant comment, it is truly ridiculous. You apparently have no clue whatsoever about gun crime statistics in the USA. You say it's "likely" they'd have shot each other? That is so completely not likely, it is a pretty silly aspersion to cast. There are stereotypes, some of which make sense. That one does not. Unless you're specifically talking about gang member "friends" fighting, the likelihood of this happening, particularly among college friends, is so small, it is not worth even considering. I find the US bashing in this forum a bit humorous, but sometimes it's just too far and too ridiculous. There are good statistics out there on the demographics of gun crime in the US, if you care at all to see how far off you are. I don't imagine you care, but if you do.... check it out. It seems apparent that you'd be shocked at what you find. Edited August 29, 2023 by Sig Clarified the quote better 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The players and fans ran for their lives and the games all cancelled. Yes there are a lot of bad Thai apples but they do not have a monopoly on violence. Definitely the result of left wing politics on diversity. There was no such thing in my teen years. But I do remember the years when immigration came into play also. The news reported on a stabbing downtown Ottawa. We had never heard of such an occurrence. then the news explained that it was between Asian people, new immigrants... then we knew that something was about to change in our culture.... The importation of other cultures.... Referred to as 'diversity'. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swerve Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 The idea that modern groups can claim ownership of common symbols is wrong. Swastikas are much older than Nazis. Nazis don't own swastikas, just as the alphabet people don't own rainbows. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
