That Brit has just lost his job, his house and his freedom. Something to consider before getting unruly, the consequences can be just as bad as the prison sentence. Anyone see a go fund me for the lawyers fee coming.

Not a chance, GoFundMe doesn't operate in Thailand.

Why has he "lost his house"?

I just posted my opinion, which not warranted such response from you. How would it be if you just told your opinion about the news? Or maybe you should just go back under you rock.

Well said.

[Gobbler]

If the drunken British LOUT has a some money, I hope the Aussie's family takes it all.  Make the bastard a pauper.  When he emerges from Thai prison, deport him with nothing in his pocket back to Britain. Let him die with nothing on the streets of London. 

 

Or do some of you have sympathy for him?

So you are allowed an opinion on something, but someone else isnt allowed an opinion on your opinion?

Holzerfilled's comment that Gottfrid referenced was not him expressing an opinion about anything, it was him ridiculing Gottfrid and pompously suggesting that he (Holzerfilled) represented the entire AN membership!

Just because a teenager says it doesn't mean that it is factual!

Some more off topic abusive comments removed.

 

@Gobbler discuss the topic and stop being abusive to other posters or you will be facing a time- out.

Yet another brilliant insight from Gottfrid that none of us would have figured on our own.  On behalf of the entire Aseannow community I thank you Gottfrid for your tireless service. 

Could not of put it better.

You didn't put that particularly well so I see no reason to believe that you could have put it any better!

When in prison you can't pay the rent or the mortgage.

His best friend is dead at his hands. No remorse? 

There was no suggestion that he was his "best friend".  Neither was it reported that he had no remorse.

Sure it was.  He denies any responsibility. That was in the article.

He has a mortgage to pay?   If he doesn't pay his rent he doesn't lose his house, he doesn't own a house to lose.

Denying responsibility, from a legal standpoint, is not an indication of lack of remorse, it is a sensible thing to do for someone who believes that they are not guilty of a deliberate killing .

So now the drunk Brit is doing sensible things? How convenient.

At any rate he loses his home and upon release he will be unemployed, not an ideal position to be in these days, one punch and his future is ruined.

I'm amazed at the CCTVs in Thailand. They work when 'certain quarters' want them to, and are 'broken' when they are supposed to 'see nothing'.

In the specific legal circumstance that I posted about, yes.  Don't see how you see it as "convenient", though...convenient for whom, and how?

I left LOS in 2013 with my Thai family & moved to Australia, as I had cancer. In 2016 I had further treatment. After I'd finished my first week of months of nastiness, I stopped in at my local pub to put a bet on a horse, as I am involved in thoroughbred racing & breeding. Sadly, TAB's in Australia are now nearly all located in pubs & clubs. It was a Sunday & only two people were in the bar. I backed a 40/1 winner at its' first start, which apparently upset a local who had just lost his money backing something else. As I walked past him to collect my winnings, I became the victim of a "one punch" un-provoked attack. He had simply 'lost it', completely. Luckily my head never hit the floor, or I'd be dead. I was however knocked out & the chap who did it was charged & convicted. He was British, but lived here. I was lucky, as the pub had just installed CCTV the day before & it was all on film. As I didn't die, unlike so many others both here in Australia & particularly in the UK, the Court was lenient with the t*rd & he got off lightly with a fine. Two days ago the ABC here in Oz ran a special on "one punch attacks" in the UK. It revealed that the numbers of such incidents are horrendous in the UK & so, just like here in Australia, the UK govt. has enacted legislation giving severe penalties for one-punch attacks that result in the death or disability of the victim. The number of deaths from "one punch" attacks in the UK in recent years is appalling. Like others have said, if I got violent when I drank beer, I'd quit drinking.

Unfortunately aggressive people again, that can´t control and refrain from impulse action. Totally unnecessary violence, when there is an option to just say F-O and go home, as it seems they had been drinking enough and can´t control their actions.

 

People don't understand what alcohol does or how dangerous it is, despite weekly reports of alcohol-related violence on AN.

1 - It brings up repressed anger

2 - It lowers inhibitions, including inhibitions to act out violently. So no, you can't control your actions

3 - And if you're drunk and someone attacks you, you can't defend yourself

 

Sitting around drinking with "friends" is one of stupidest things in society that is considered normal behavior.

That is just a load of bull. By far, the majority of drinkers have none of the problems you are describing. The new stupidest now is comments like yours.
