Popular Post bob smith Posted May 27 Popular Post Share Posted May 27 1 minute ago, BigStar said: Sorry, a poster of your hard-nosed skepticism always demands clear and irrefutable evidence before making any accusations. Unless perhaps against Thais? You, now, can't just "judge by behavior" Mr. Ice has any penchant for illegal substance. No, you absolutely MUST see a video of him actually consuming it. Then you can make that accusation. why do you love Thais so much when the vast majority of them clearly dislike us? it really perplexes me. bob. 2 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walker88 Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 Many many pages and opinions into this incident, perhaps it's time to let it breathe (myself included), and let all the facts come out. I'll admit to being led to a conclusion---which could well be dead wrong---watching the spliced video that includes CCTV camera footage from inside the Helicopter Bar.

Bday Prang Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 14 minutes ago, BigStar said: But we don't like any talk of attracting the big spending quality tourists who drive up prices of stuff. And the thought of tightening visa/extension requirements always causes screams, teeth gnashing, and soiled knickers. If only we could figure out how to screen out the hooligans and admit only the sort of Brit not likely to engage in thuggery. Here's what we want: And what chance would those two stand when it all kicks off? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Teavee Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 Just now, bob smith said: how do you know the brits didn’t accept their culture? by refusing to pay another persons bill?? that deserved a fatal kick to the temple? what an absolute idiot you are!! bob. Don't get me wrong as they do look like Brits, but has it been confirmed anywhere that they are British or are people just repeating an unconfirmed fact based on their personal bias. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would if they refused to pay another persons bill. Even british pensioners will stand up for themselves, and Thai thugs think nothing of beating up elderly people.

Popular Post Gottfrid Posted May 27 Popular Post Share Posted May 27 No, absolutely nothing deserves a fatal kick to the head. Nothing can call for the way the gourds were acting, as they should have the training and mentality to handle things without violence or only subdue people if necessary until police arrives. I have never contested that. So, now you can stop with the verbal assault, by calling my out to be an absolute idiot. But, yes, I knew, but not defending the outcome, that the Brits did not accept the way and culture, as they started to point and one actually wanted to fight with the guards. They walked around showing anger in public and where screaming. Basically doing everything to escalate the problem. They should have asked the bar to call the cops or continued to keep the argument and discussion on a decent level. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So much so that even 500 baht and an extended wai wont get him out of hot water? bob. I hope, due to the worldwide promotion, and the smoking heads, the officials already have behind closed doors, how to handle it. This guy has the badge on his forehead, to be the target for the needed example of a “crackdown” on... The dogs bite the last one. The only fear I have, that there will appear a girl with a broken nose, out of nowhere. Beside that security thug pussy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One in which absolute, irrefutable proof is demanded when any farang accused of something, as in the kicking of the Thai doctor. You write numerous posts arguing innocent until proven guilty! The other in which you hypocritically may accuse Thais of whatever and believe any rumor without applying any such standards. Why is that, except out of mere bigotry?

Ctkong Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 3 hours ago, Bday Prang said: we have all been skimmed before and are therefore less shocked when it happens, but it may well have been the first time for that guy, It would be normal to get a little bit upset knowing one has been taken for a mug. They obviously did not expect things to escalate the way they did, if they were aware of the potential for that they would more than likely have walked away like most of us Girlie Bars overseas in Europe and America also had their share of bill padding or outright fraud. It is to be expected if you want to venture to such areas. Pattaya is no different. Adult entertainment playground would surely attract undesirables too. Both pundits and enforcers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem with your entire response is that they were likely drunk - and made an unwise decision possibly - but to expect a two-week visit tourist to have some sort of understanding and acceptance of Thai culture is nonsense. I would not expect a Thai person on two week holiday in the UK understand or accept UK culture. The guards however, should have been the ones calming the whole thing down and calling the police - the job of a bouncer is not to see who can deliver the biggest kicking, but to de- escalate the situation, violence in defence is the last resort, not the preferred option. Especially when your job involves interacting with people who are a little bit worse for wear after a night on the lash. If the roles were reversed and the tourist had delivered a similar kicking to the guards - Off with their heads, deport, hang em high etc etc would be expected outcome - not siding with them!! 1 2 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guy in grey shirt looked aggressive to me From the video inside the bar & other commentary it looked like the guy in the black shirt (believe it was actually blue ) who looks like he's trying to calm it all down outside was actually the one who didn't pay his bill (Hence White shirt was adamant he'd already paid his & wouldn't pay again) & he was also the guy who shoved the other Farang outside. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigStar Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 31 minutes ago, bob smith said: that deserved a fatal kick to the temple? No, you don't know it was fatal but are just spreading rumors. Normally if a farang is accused, you demand the video evidence. You need to see at least the photos of the corpse before you can make any judgement in this case--by your usual standards. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The kicking of the doctor pales into insignificance by comparison if he even did kick her, it certainly was not shown clearly in the related video. What part of the video and cctv footage of this incident would you say were not clear? The only rumours connected to this incident were the broken nose of a bar girl which has never been mentioned in any report , and the death of one of the guys which has not yet been confirmed or denied' Exactly what point of yours have I ignored due to it being true? 1 1 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem with my response in none at all. You should always have control, and never drink more than you can maintain your control. People that say they can´t have fun without being drunk have no clue about how life works. Ok, you do not have to understand culture and ways after only 14 days. However, you must be as smart as you understand how to not escalate a problem instead of screaming, acting aggressive and asking for a fight. That has actually not anything with culture to do. Just common sense, that these guys seem to have a severe lack of. I do not need to repeat that I am not condoning what the guards did. I already explained that. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
