How Thailand got a reputation for happy, smiling people is beyond me. It must be one of the most dangerous places in the world outside of a war zone. Weapons and low intelligence is not a good mix. Especially when it involves a 14  year old carrying firearms (again) and ping pong bombs, whatever they are.

Think the room too small only 9 police in photo.😀

All those smartphone games coming to life for the dim.......

Ten actually. Officer Shorty is in the back row.😀

And still no proper gun laws or mandatory sentencing. It just continues unabated, What useless governments we have here, and still allowed to import guns, yet alone all the home made ones.

Might be a small step forward if they made 16 the age of responsibility.
