Something tell me this is not just a moment, but part of a pattern. You don't do this kind of thing just once in a while. As long as there is clear evidence, then let's just throw him off a fishing boat in deep water, and let the sharks have him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TroubleandGrumpy Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 10 minutes ago, Hakuna Matata said: Only after he has served 5 years in jail in Thailand! That could be true. But me thinks they will find a legal way to deport him before the court appearance. That will include 'resuming' any of his financials/property to pay the fine imposed.

Give me a break man. If you read this site regularly, there are plenty of farang who are supposedly sullying the peoples' them. Thais continue being kind and friendly to foreigners who give them the same respect. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Enoon Posted March 8 Popular Post Share Posted March 8 (edited) 1 hour ago, IvorBiggun2 said: May be that's his intention. Make people believe he is unhinged. He already did that when he went into his violent frenzy. His mental disorder now manifesting as dissociation. Nothing matters to him now........he absolutely does not give a ****. The problem for Thailand is that it attracts so many foreigners who, like him, are close to the edge. It's the go-to place for "troubled" Westerners.

puck2 Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 I guess the criminal is afraid Thai people/neighbours would do the same to him, what he did to the Thai lady. That's why he "prefered" time in prison against being bailed out! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gecko123 Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 (edited) Were Thailand ever to implement more stringent mental health, criminal background, or social reputation screenings of expats in an effort to prevent future incidents such as this, it would make for a more arduous and expensive visa renewal process for all of us. So it's in our collective self-interest to try to work towards reducing the odds of situations like this occurring. There is a deeply entrenched loner culture in Thailand's expat community, and it's almost in vogue for expats to socially shun other expats, all of which contribute to the likelihood of guys like this going off the deep end. If Thailand's expat community made more of an effort to be more socially supportive of one another that would probably help reduce the likelihood of events like this occurring. There are also too many foreigners over here who think that civility, personability, friendliness, kindness, charitability, etc., is the other guy's responsibility, and who make little effort to socially engage with Thais or to learn the language. Sadly, such attitudes are all too often encouraged and reinforced on social media platforms such as this one. My point is that what people post on ASEANNOW is not separate and detached from the real world. It's all intertwined.

Hope this POS gets what's coming to him, maybe he is to scared to be outside incase of a revenge beating, hope he end up having to use a walking frame if that happens.

soalbundy Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 His facial expression and actions of non compliance show he is letting the thunder roll over him, he has lost hope. This action of madness on his part does hint at mental illness or a momentary loss of control due to some traumatic event or news just before the incident. It is unusual that he rejects his embassy or his ex- wife and seems to want to make matters worse for himself, he obviously isn't acting normally, either then or now, he needs a psychiatrist but he will probably reject that as well. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why can they be philoxenos and tolerant like we are towards foreigners in our countries. Why can't Thais brutally beat helpless old mothers over their shopping carts in our countries the way we do in their country? Let's equalize this behavior.

Jonathan Swift Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 2 hours ago, JGon said: Another one... soon the media will keep pushing this narrative and we "farangs" will be stereotype for a few bad apples (if this isn't already happening). You have a vivid imagination. Are you one of those who whines and complains about imaginary prejudice and racism against poor white farangs? Well chew on this: In my more than 10 years here the only bad behavior by a******s that I’ve ever seen is by foreigners, so if the shoe fits you deseve to wear them. If you keep your nose clean you have nothing to fear from Thailand. They certainly aren’t out to fabricate offenses or persecute westerners. If all this is too much to bear perhaps you should go back where you came from and resume your complaining. Nobody wants to hear from chronic complainers with nothing better to do. Just go away and solve everyone’s problems. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
