[rattlesnake]

Judging by his attitude and clothes, he's probably "French". If only they could deport these sc*mbags.

No you don't. I see only tourists pulled over. Though agree that skin colour likely did not play a part. Just an obvious tourist with no helmet and no shirt.

Time to open your eyes.

 

I see Thais pulled over just as often.  Yes I do.

No...you don't. Are you hanging around outside the police station and counting or are you just making it up as you go along?

When I go past, I see tourists, only.

So you can take pictures. I'll come back to this thread to see your evidence. Equal numbers of Thais and foreigners. See you here when you are ready.

LOL she called him a "person of color" in Thai. Are you telling me Thai news is watching American news and then translating back to Thai their language? Calling an African a "person of color" makes no sense in the context of Thailand unless maybe they think of themselves as white? No idea what she was thinking.

Your attempt to politicize the Thai term (piw sii ผิวสี) is misguided. This term has been around for a very long time, and to the best of my knowledge it is a home grown term that was not adopted out of any pressures from abroad to be politically correct. It is simply a non-offensive euphemism to describe dark complected foreigners, usually of African descent.

I sometimes drive through the streets of my village completely naked.

 

tomorrow I'm going to do it wearing only a Santa hat.

 

Doubt I'll make the headlines though, as where I am now is full of local thais and they already know I'm a crackpot..

Once again an AN member has taught me a new word, had to Bingle the meaning, but...thank you for enhancing my knowledge. Must now try to use it in context.

Do The  Missionaries spring to mind?

[phetphet]

I wonder why such people think they can just laugh at the Thai Police in this way. I know how they are viewed, but doing things like this in their face is just asking for trouble.

They could make things quite uncomfortable at the least for this guy if they so chose to.

politicize? just noticing. I find this very hard to believe though. I know Thai's adopt and adapt American slang and person of color only makes senes if you comparing them against people with white skin, i.e. no color. I've only ever heard Thai people say "black skin color" or black person, but never person of color which AKAIK is solely an American term to describe non-whites or what they used to call minorities (probably gearing up for the a non-white majority so the term minority is no longer relevant, there's a politicized something).

This is just one of the reasons why AI is so dangerous.  It is coming to the point that one does not know who or what to trust, especially anything from the government.

[Dave0206]

There is a lot of what about ism I'm often driving 2nd road beach road or 3rd road the amount of bikers with no helmets is probably 1helmet for 4 without. 

As said thais also get tickets but at a lesser % but if continuous fines is what it takes to comply let it be I'm sure some take the hint and start wearing a helmet may have saved a few lives I say let the checks continue

Expand  

Not all black people come from Africa, so it's necessary to use various terms, I presume that calling someone black is a bad thing in thai culture, asian beauty standards value white skin so maybe it's something to do with that.

Another stupid tourist, a disrespectful Brit. 

 

Strange how he made his way to Beach Rd, I thought they just cruised up and down soi Buakhou.

Where's Derek Chauvin when we need him?

[riverhigh]

Driving without a hemet or valid driver's license. Which part of the ticket does this "entitled" individual not understand? Nothing to do with race, color or religion. Lucky that he was not chjarged with resisting arrest  and disorderly conduct. If this clown was thrown out of the country, I would have litte sympathy.

Well, they are finding Thailand very attractive because KFC is doing very well in Thailand. Thais kids are getting very chubby. Gonna see more mulattoes popping up everywhere, just like the USA.

How did race somehow make it into your equation? Playing the race card has gotten soooooooooooo OLD. Please leave it where it belongs and quit dragging it out of the trash heap.
