Jogging after dark 10pm is asking for trouble

 

Can non shirt people start wearing shirts please, thank you, that probably incens

If it's cooler and more comfortable for him to jog that way , why can't he.

After all he is not bothering anyone .

Why it's mentioned he's a former soldier?

Is this important,? NO.

Would it be mentioned if he's an office clerk? NO.

Is there an explanation?

For all we know, they may have had his shirt removed to check for injuries. But even if he was shirtless while jogging... get a clue! That is no excuse for assault and battery! The Thai fool was apparently drunk. You act as though he was morally outraged? lol
The level of nonsense here is so high, I'm thinking that this could be sarcasm! If it is... you got me!

Not sarcasm just someone sitting on a high pedestal and casting judgement on others .

Not a good time jogging in the dark, even the temps are moderate then. Better to attend a gym.

However, I hope this attacker will be punished soon👍

The man was exercising for gods sake, it was dark in a park, he wasn't disturbing anybody. While I agree that the habit of some lowlife falang to walk in the street shirtless or in a vest or even go shopping in a supermarket topless is pretty disgusting, this was a different case entirely.

My sentiments exactly

How do you know he did nothing wrong? 

Where's your link? 

Have you got a magical crystal ball? 

Were you there, at the crime scene? 

 

Stop making things up. 

 

I've been around drunken Thai men many times, these guys are harmless unless provoked. 

 

I agree with what type of people do we have on this forum, we have hostile, antagonizers, maybe the jogger was an AN forum member. 😂

 

At the risk of of offending your fragile sensitivity, may I respectfully suggest you try to wind your own neck in. 😁

Love to see your abs at 82 years of age , or even 52,62,72 and I wager you already have a classic beer belly

"Mr. Rad" indeed. In California, something is sometimes called "rad" if it is cool or impressive (local slang) . I would say this 82 year old dude running at night, or any time of day, with or without a shirt, is more than "Rad."

Me too. Most are harmless. Jogging shirtless after 10pm is stupid too.

Im suprised he can still run at 82😮

Whether you can still walk at 82...?

Respect. Well done Mr Rad, 82. Obviously fit and in good health. Even standing after taking a punch. I hope they find the culprit. Ignore the criticism on this page ... I doubt if 70% of them will make it to your age ... let alone maintain a fitness regime.

why didn't his caretaker alert the nursing home security when he went missing .

 

he's 82 and out jogging at 10pm in town ...       did they forget his medicine ?

 

what could possibly go wrong   :vampire:

This so call youth park once vibrate at night for locals has been turn into a <deleted> hole.

The city leaders robbed the place of its funding as to intentionally rude the place. Tennis court. Pool, all closed I believed the police station onsite is still there so why!

Take a breath. I think it´s time for your meds.

The usual, where is your link? How do you know? Magic crystal ball? Same old used comments, from a person who just don´t get it.

My post was actually not referring to if the old man agitated the Thai man before his reaction. If you read many other comments here just about no shirt, and a short good etc. and more, you would have understood that. However, you just took your chance to file a stupid comment. Almost like usual. Starting to be a trend for you.

Also, why do you accuse me of making things up? Also the park security officer told that the Thai guy was drunk and causing a disturbance. I based my post on what other members posted, as well as how the news was told. What to you base you baseless BS on?

Derogatory and Troll comments also replies.

Why respond to a guy that thinks it's cool to be pissed at 8am, just because he works offshore, like he's the only one!

 

The only thing sillier than that, are his posts defending a Thai drunken thug, who picks on 82-year-old men.

It’s an offence to ride a motor bike /scooter  without a garment covering your upper body you would think the police would make an absolute killing in fines to support their coffeefund

Agree! Yeah, you got a point there. You know me, I have trouble not to comment such idiotic BS.

Im shocked.

Mr. Rad, who enjoys regular exercise in the park, reported that the assailant was a dark-skinned Thai man aged between 30 and 40 years.


 I believe I've seen him.

Actually I'm a little younger, swill 10 pints a day but still ripped.

 

Besides I see humor (the smiley face was the hint) has gone right over your head.

82 year old still running, looks to be in excellent shape for age, can take a sucker-punch to the face by someone 1/2 his age.  

Tough ol' Bastage!

Respect!

Perhaps to indicate that he is a disciplined active physically  fit gentleman?
