They can't control their actions because they are drunk, drunken behaviour has no relevance to sober behaviour.

You do know there are different stages of drunk, right?

In Thailand, I always tend to avoid any mouthy, loud, drunk foreigners who seem to loose their heads and think they rule the place. They are usually source of trouble.

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.

That's the easy part, no worries.

29 year old hits 58 year old man, where is the honor today

Absolutely shocked to read that a is Brit involved. 

 

It's almost as if they can't enjoy a drink like civilized people do. A sniff of the cork and they go berserk, from bashing all and sundry to public defecation and stripping naked to wash the feces off in a public fountain.  If the baht is devalued we can look forward to plenty more of stories like this in the future.

So you think a two-year-old video of some scumbag in Sisaket represents the entire population of the UK?

 

Furthermore, I don't recall the news stating the foreigner stripping and defecating in a fountain was British?

 

Whoever he was, mental illness is definitely suspect.

 

The only point your absurd post shows is that you have some hang up with British people, by and large, which is sad on your behalf.

 

Gimp by name, gimp by nature.

 

Meaning of gimp in English

an unpleasant or stupid person: I can't stand that gimp.

Living among Italian-Americans back when the first-generation ones were still alive, no gathering will go to waste without some kind of dramatic confrontation.

 

Well, these people aren't supposed to be depicting such, but being that Pacino like to say he is a full Italian (both parents)...

 

 

I never wanted to see that movie after seeing advertisements.   Now I see it was a good decision.

No Italians in my paternal side of the family.  I barely knew my maternal side, so I don't know about them.

Thanks for that wonderful insight

I wonder how well these guys knew each other? Sounds like they may have simply been acquaintances. It's never a good idea to punch someone in the face when they're standing on the sidewalk or the street. Anytime someone gets knocked down to the pavement all bets are off, anything could happen. The head is so delicate, hitting it in the wrong spot can cause instantaneous death.

 

I know a few Aussies who tend to be quite aggressive when drunk, I know one who's been beating his wife to the point where you could barely recognize her face. Finally after several assaults she has left him, thankfully. The man does not have one redeeming quality and his entire body. I don't know how indicative he is of Australian men in general, but this guy is a real low life. 

 

Now this Aussie bozo who was simply acting out is on the hook for murder, and will likely spend decades in The slammer. Very few hearts will bleed.

What are you on about?

The Aussie is dead, do you think they should lock him up for decades before the funeral?

Brits and Aussies have always been on that list....... more recent additions seem to be less of an issue. Are we suggesting we introduce Visa requirements for them and just have the Indians, Chinese etc as Exempt? Recently read that Phuket is complaining of too many low spend tourists now!

Stick to Penthouse and the like... he isn't worthy of your admiration.

This type of event seems to be pretty  common in some anglo-saxon societies. They passed one punch laws in Australia, which raised awareness. The problem is a lot of people still consider the odd punch as not that serious; a myth propagated to a large extent by Hollywood.

I love how people here like to bash certain nationalities. Drunken stupidity happens everywhere in the world. In Thailand they will sell you booze until you drop unlike other countries where the bar would be sued if this happened. Drinking with people who you would have nothing in common with other than you're on holidays or living in Thailand can be a disaster waiting to happen.

Your rant was a bit rich coming from an American.

Over there it would have been a mass shooting.

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.

Therefore they should not be allowed in a bar

Pattaya drunken brawl: Construction worker dies, Brit arrested

 

 

Thai police have provided an update on a drunken fight in Pattaya that left a Western Australian man dead and a British tourist under arrest. The tragic brawl, which occurred outside the Walk In Mansion Hotel in Pattaya, saw the Aussie construction worker lose his life after an altercation with a 29 year old British man.

 

The construction worker, 58 year old John Max Neale, originally from Leicester, had been drinking with the British tourist in the early hours of Friday morning, September 27, when things spiralled out of control.

 

Thai police reported that the 29 year old punched Neale, causing him to fall and hit his head on the pavement. Despite paramedics performing CPR and rushing him to Pattaya Memorial Hospital, Neale could not be revived.

Witnesses and CCTV footage appear to back the allegations against the unnamed British man, though he continues to deny any wrongdoing. Police Major Tanongsak Inphadung said, “He refused to say anything, even though we had an interpreter, and he will get a lawyer to defend the lawsuit.”

 

The cause of the fight remains unclear but police suspect alcohol played a major role in the fatal encounter. Both men were staying on the same floor of the hotel, and Neale had been seen drinking for hours before the incident. Police are awaiting autopsy results to confirm whether Neale was also intoxicated.

 

Neale, who moved to Perth from the UK, owned a construction consulting business. Just two months before his death, he had purchased a house in Newman, Western Australia, for 480,000 Aussie dollars (around 10.8 million baht), reported the Daily Mail UK.

So, 2 Brits and not one. 

 

No doubt it was just a coincidence. These two were probably gleefully singing "my grandad killed your grandad" to a couple of passing Germans when the disagreement broke out.  With any luck the survivor will serve his entire sentence here and not back in one of those cushy UK prisons where one can identify as female and bunk with the ladies. 

 

Decent Brits know exactly what I'm talking about and despise that element of their culture. You won't find many Yanks who know about that song, at any rate. 

 

 

Tragic how a single moment of madness can destroy two lives.

More weed mongering. Maryjane not a harmless drug. I know someone went completely schizo on it, had to go to the loony bin. Tis just a sad case of 2 guys who never shouldve took to the drink in the first place; too many unresolved emotional traumas + hair trigger temper + cheap booze = tragedy.

Well they likely don't come in drunk and violent nor wear T-Shirts and hats advertising the fact. They are people who have yet to learn alcohol is not for them. The Thai attitude to keep selling  alcohol is not going to change... the madness of making it available to 4am was unnecessary... 'all night' venues were already to be found.
