Yeah, but why do that?  That seems to be something that would just make him worse.  Give him an audience, and he's going to act up for them.  Ignore him and tell him to go away, and it's more likely to be diffused.  Or call the police.

 

It also made Thais more aggravated and gave them a chance to gang up and attack.

 

They need to learn how to diffuse things or end them quickly and safely.  There must be a step between doing nothing and a gang of men trying to smash his face in.

The mountain does not go to Mohammed, Mohammed must go to the mountain.

 

The farang needs to learn how to diffuse, not the Thai security on Soi 6. The Thai security that is way more efficient and effective than the Thai police.

 

Oh, the farang was acting up BEFORE the crowd gathered. Multiple people told the farang to leave. He wanted a fight. Soi 6 is truly service oriented. Thais should have charged him 1000 baht after.

Another day in paradise.  Hence why I live in Nowhereville in rural Northern Thailand.  Left that nonsense years ago.

And as always   a whole group of THais against 1 opponent... Even the so called hostesses joined the fight.. But what can you expect in a place like Pattaya/?? Family resort first class....If they are men they would fight one to one and not 10 to 1... That is low very low.. no matter what he did...And the cause ... yeah open the bars till 4 am or longer to get more drunk people and more problems

Not denying anything. I'm saying the bars, cannabis tourism, and casinos? are all part of a tourism ecosystem that influences who decides to come here, and Thailand would be smart to evaluate this if they are interested in improving their tourism demographics.

i've stated it a million times on here. alcohol is a dangerous drug that often makes people violent.

this happens in bars and nightclubs all over the world.

nothing anyone can do about it except hire security.

Watch the longer video that I linked. He was carrying on like Russell Crowe in Gladiator: "ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED?".

 

I'm waiting for the day that 10 Thai "security guards" head in for the kill on a foreigner they plan to gang-beat and find John Wick.
"Are you not entertained now!" Well - I've got a long wait methinks.

No.  Security should defuse.  That is their job.  Not to batter the guy.

 

Obviously the drunken aggressive person isn't going to defuse.  Defuse what?  He was the one being aggressive!  🙄

This is another video of the incident.

Did you actually read the OP?

The guy acted like a dick and got what he was looking for.

Maybe next time he will behave better?

Another lesson learned for this young man.

He acted that way. So this gives the security the right to assault him and the crowd to beat him down? Seriously? 

I am sure there have been times when you acted like a D as well. Perhaps, you should have been jumped as well? 

So, he picked up a girl in play and she hit the aircon above. Simple to happen no deliberately. So he was loud. Obnoxious. He was drunk.. Perhaps every time you get drunk and do something stupid the crowd near you should attack and beat you down... 

The only lesson learned here is that the security still have not been trained to manage incidents without violence. And that you would have been one in the crowd that jumped the guy.

I think it is important to not piss off more than 1 person at a time. It is not like they are going to wait in line so that they can punch you one at a time.

Quite an odd situation.  He actually didn't seem to realise the danger he was in, even after squaring up to men approaching him.  Like through all that, where you can see multiple men wanting to fight him, he didn't actually think that they would fight him.

Exactly, my fighting days are over but back in my younger days I learned to read body language and to size someone up, never saw any sense in getting into a scrap if I was going to get minced. If the odds looked stacked against me I backed away.

Agreed.  Several years ago an Australian manhandled a girl on the 6 by lifting her up by the throat.  American guy didn’t appreciate it and got into a fight with the Aussie.

 

Aussie fell and hit his head and went home in a body bag.

Wasn't that where the girl had actually asked him to do it and the American guy basically killed him for nothing?  That doesn't seem like a good example to bring up.

they had plenty of time to just call the police.

Call the police, for what?  Is taunting a crime?

Unfortunately, a lot of foreigners seem to feel this way.  They would probably like to see more foreigners being attacked and injured.  They seem to really have a problem with other foreigners.

 

What's funny about it, is how unlike Thais they behave, whilst claiming that Thais and Thailand are the best!

where you been, man?

i think the article stated that he previously lifted a bar girl and her head hit the chandelier.

but in any case, taunting someone to fight is a public disturbance which can turn into a full-blown fight which can turn deadly. it's the beginning phase of a potential crime. or the public disturbance part is actually a crime. 

you happy now that i clarified?

not one person out of hundreds watching called the police.

i would have called the police. but then if people got wind, maybe i would have been attacked for calling the police as they seem to like street justice.

Bob, Bob, Bob!    Haven't we talked about this kind of behavior before?

I'm happy that you understand that taunting, which is what you specifically referred to, is not a crime.

[black tabby12345]

A drunken incident by a foreign tourist ended in swift retribution after he assaulted a female bar worker and mocked Muay Thai, only to be knocked down by a bouncer and then roughed up by a furious crowd. 

 

Another thing I like about this kingdom.

Often swift instant justice on the spot,  to the senseless aggressor.

It is. 

It's a public disturbance and you are threatening the public.

If you raise your fists, that means you may attack someone.

2 time loser.

Beaten up twice in a fight he started.

As I stated, the drunk got off easy 

 

What is your recommendation for the Thai security for the “defuse the situation “ comment?  You seem to mention often.

 

Do you really think the drunk would listen to “defusing “ advice by his actions in the video.

 

The drunk created his own destiny.

How do you "know" that no one called the police?  As all the bars have their police contact's personal number on what used to be called speed dial, it is highly unlikely that they weren't called by someone.

 

From the OP...

"Police were called, and the incident is now under investigation..."

You’re misinformed.  I’m not surprised.

1, Talk.  2, Call the police.  3, Restrain in superior numbers.

 

It's very simple.

 

There's no need to batter the guy.  You just want that because of something inside you.

I think it implies that police were called after the fight. 

I know no one called the police because they would have arrived before the start fighted.
