Popular Post retarius Posted February 2 Popular Post Share Posted February 2 I can't help feeling that people in positions of authority who abuse the trust placed in them, need punishing much harder than kids who smoke dope or deal it, or ordinary citizens that pick mushrooms in National Parks. Surely this fellow will be moved to an inactive post or transferred. He should be publicly flogged and put in prison for a decade with monsters, as should all corrupt officers and public servants and abusers of power. 2 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post hotchilli Posted February 2 Popular Post Share Posted February 2 As Supaporn was slowing down to enter the market car park, a pickup hit her motorcycle and dragged Warit for 300 metres along the road. Supaporn said she shouted at the pickup to stop but the driver continued to drive away at high speed. Police managed to stop the pickup at an intersection near a Roi Et Kindergarten, nearly 2 kilometres away from the accident scene. The pickup driver crashed his car into nearly 10 vehicles along his escape route. The driver was reported to be a police officer, identified as 50 year old Police Senior Sergeant Major Somsong Sriardree-aram. Somsong was reportedly under the influence of alcohol, RTP showing you how professionals do it. 3 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spidermike007 Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 Police Senior Sergeant Major Somsong Sriardree-aram. Somsong was reportedly under the influence of alcohol, with a blood alcohol level of 321 milligrammes percent, far above the legal limit of 50 milligrams per cent. Glad they called him out by name. He should be shamed to no end, his reputation should be completely soiled, and he should be locked up for a significant period of time. If the police cannot be held to a higher standard what does this say about a society? It's a very sorry statement and an act perpetrated by an extremely heinous, ridiculous, pathetic, unmanly person who does not even measure up to the standard of a real man. I wouldn't be surprised if Big Joke gets the cretin off the hook, they sure don't like prosecuting their own. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spidermike007 Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 I think instead of the current name that they have, the proper name should be STP (Soiled Thai Police. Seems like both the army and the police have an exceptionally high number of men who misbehave, and are major social misfits and delinquents.

Seems like both the army and the police have an exceptionally high number of men who misbehave, and are major social misfits and delinquents. Many believe their uniform allows it. And not only in the police and military but in public service such as immigration or local offices. Why do you think so many people in Thailand wear uniforms. Members of my family are teachers and are often asked to dress up in white. It makes those who have uniforms feel important and better than others, and for some that means they can exploit their 'status' and bully or intimidate others. It's a very primitive society. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bangkok Barry Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 Maybe this fine upstanding policeman (if he could stand, which is debatable) could claim a family servant was driving and then flee overseas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
