Oh here we go, the guy and his warrior keyboard. 

 

If I've offended you because you are one of those trashy foreigners I'm sorry petal. 

 

 

You aren't offending me, because I'm not one of the "typical" foreigners you think you personally know who are trashy drunks. What you consistently do, and keeping that true here, is assume you know anyone on this forum and what kind of life they have. Also, you assume many foreigners are like the one mentioned here, and that Thais are somehow immune to this kind of behavior. You're living in a fantasy world, because this happens with many in this country, daily, as I and many others can attest, and most of the time it's locals. This happens but I don't assume all or in fact most locals are drunks that cause trouble. It's a select group, just like it is in your country and every other.

 

That you keep responding shows just what you are even more, and obviously you miss this. You are also a keyboard warrior, seeing you keep coming back for more. The difference is, you were wrong in what you said, both here and in many other topics, that foreigners are a "typical" lot that causes trouble like this, and dismiss that locals are 95% at least of what goes on here daily. If you aren't willing to call me trashy in person, don't so it here. One, you wouldn't get away with it in person, and two, it shows what a 'warrior" you are, meaning a coward.

Simple yes or no answer.

Have you used this supposed influence before to get friends off drink driving charges?

You won’t answer.

 

Yes...   After they'd had two glasses of wine - and didn't want to blow into the *wand at a check-point.

 

 

If you know what the wand is, it just registers the 'presence' of alcohol not the amount - so it would then involve either 'pay on the spot charge' to get out of it, or wait a while (an hour or so) then go to the station for the official reading...    which by then would be below anyway... 

... A phone call avoided the waiting around... 

 

I've also witnessed the same friends help others in similar circumstances. 

 

There's your answer...         I'm sure you'll use the information to claim some delusional moral high ground to support driving after 12 beers (6x 70cl bottles - which actually takes ~10 hours to get out of your system to below DUI levels).

When are Poms gonna recognize that they’re no longer a superpower and the days that they can look down on other cultures are gone. 😂😂😂

I am very safe, drive well below the speed limit.

Now get back to work.

What you don't realize, is that everyone who kills or maims another, thought they were a safe driver driving after drinking. Another thing is that while drunk, you only think you're driving safely. Police can follow a drunk driver just a short distance before realizing they're impaired, at least in the west, where you're a lot less likely to get away with it in the first place.

Are there any single farang men up your way?

Or farang couples? 
No.

The only farang males up there ended up there chasing skirt.

Guessing again, you've only been in LOS a few months, and you think you know everything about everywhere in LOS..........🤥

I haven't got time for this, I have a life.

What an idiot.

Of course you have a life. It entails talking down to many foreigners here, and brown nosing to assume you get favor from locals. Remember, there are Thai forums where you might be more welcome.

that’s fine. We can take it. But other cultures usually don’t. 😂😂

I’m going to take a view that although the western man seemed agitated and likely had a few, the video didn’t look all that much at all. 
 

The video shows a Thai guy gently pushing him and the western guy protesting. 
 

Nothing else but an alcohol fueled  disagreement. If you sell alcohol you have to expect it from time to time. It’s a drug.

 

You’ve got to ask why would this make it to national tv, nothing much worse to report happening today in the land of smiles? 
 

Another observation is that why if there’s a report about an ‘Asian looking’ wrong dooer let’s for example say from ‘China’, the news report always says ‘foreigner’ but when it’s a western nationality it’s blatantly highlighted.
You’ve got to ask why this is.

If you watch local news daily on a variety of channels you'll see many stories that take up a lot of time that would never make news in the west. Most of the stories are about people robbing gold stores after parking their scooters outside with the license plates in full view of the CCTV, snakes found in homes in Bangkok, daily road death accidents and people driving off into canals, or 5 chasing 1 down a street armed with sticks.

In Europe all British are known for extreme alcohol consumption... and of course they make noise, and get angry when drinks are refused.. Many tourist destinations in Europe are not happy with them

You really are a xenophobic stereotyping muppet, if you spoke like that to me in real life I'd probably knock you out myself, however obviously as an experienced keyboard warrior you have an invisible shield on where you can stereotype other nationalities with the protection of the internet.  I am not surprised if someone from the British isles would not like you, tell us all what part of Europe you are from seeing as you are familiar with what everyone in Europe thinks?

For some reason Thailand's expats seem to be mostly racists - and this inevitably ends up in trouble as they try to convince themselves of their superiority and entitlement.

All good for banter...  many nationalities give it, take it & its good amusement when delivered well....  some of it hilarious...

... when its unhinged bigotry - then its something else and the characters 'giving it' are usually have inner mental struggles...

You always accuse anyone of having an opinion that isn't wholly positive as being racist... 

 

Its ok to have a negative opinion of some of the things here...   many Thai's make exactly the same observations.. Are they racist too ?

 

Being here is a net positive and its ok to discuss both the positives and negatives - the issue is all the dim melts removing balanced context and laying accusations of racing and Thai hater etc...  its idiotic.

Agreed... I think a lot of it is quite random...    but primarily, the issue is defamation...  A lot of the 'real news' simply cannot be reported on.

Typical aggressive British response, making threats of violence.

 

More likely you're just an overexcited old Keyboard Warrior, but do behave yourself whilst you're here in Thailand!

Don't be so quick to claim the moral high ground...

 

 

Then you have clearly forgotten the American tw4t (in Korat I believe) who went off on an anti-Covid rant - embarrassing himself and his country.

 

There are many other examples if you need them.

A good beating for this bloke would have ended this quickly
