More video of the farang getting handsy in the bar. Not a good idea to piss off the mamasan?

No, not only in Perth but in my whole life, even years in Thailand and many other countries 

Good on the bouncers for decking him..

 

Pattaya, and most of Thailand is slowly turning into a dogs breakfast ... Maguluf, Benidorm.... awful to see. 

 

This idiot would have not have behaved this way in Dubai, or Singapore. He feels embolded to do this in Thailand. 

 

Do we have a nationality yet ?

Well said. It's the Amsterdam/Las Vegas/Cancun effect. I wasn't trying to suggest that cannabis makes people more aggressive, but I am saying that when cannabis becomes part of the allure of coming to Thailand, it starts attracting people who have less respect for the culture, and who see Thailand merely as a party destination where anything goes.

 

This. It's attracting an awful crowd.

The bouncers finished the disturbance.

Very effectively.

They all work for NightWish Group down there which is headed by an Englishman. 

No they do not ALL work for the Nightwish group. I believe they employ their own, then there is another outfit of security people other bars employ. It was supposed to be looked at after the last incidence of drunken aggressive Brits getting kicked in the head on the Six. That past incident was proven to be nothing to do with Nightwish security. 

Anyhow, comes with the territory, the security get a salary and a bonus of an idiot falang to kick on a weekly basis!

This and all other incidents like this seem to have no effect on tourism. 

I doubt that, any potential quality tourists who reads about people getting drunk in bars will reroute their holiday. The abject drunks will keep coming and the Thais seem content with the job of beating the excrement out of whiteys. 

Let's all pray they kicked all his teeth out of his idiot head and he goes back home never to return

He means with a foreigner.  When Thai people do it, it's ok and normal.  When foreign people do it, it shows how bad foreign people are.  (That's just how some people view this place.  Thai = good, foreigner = bad.)

In 20 years of living in Thailand, including lots of time in Bangkok and Pattaya, no Thai has ever provoked or threatened me. In saying that lots of them have tried to jump queues in front of me, both male and female and I approached them in a normal way, told them and pointed to the back of the queue, and every time bar none they have done so.

Apart from their road behaviour, I have found the average Thai to be decent, honest and non confrontational.

So you've never seen a video online or read a news story where a Thai was aggressive and confrontational?

I am referring to personal experience, you will get aggressive and confrontational people in any country. I do not and never have  drunk alcohol and have always just minded my own business, though as I pointed out in a previous post, I will never allow queue jumping in front of me.

Act tough and drunk...you get what you deserve!

So, how do you think your personal experience is relevant when talking about Thailand or Thai people as a whole?

 

You seem to be disagreeing with what is being discussed, but your example does not support any kind of disagreement, since you personally not experiencing something does not mean it doesn't happen.

What message?  If you annoy Thai people they will gang up on you then beat the crap out of you?

 

Yeah, in case you didn't realise, people who have no intention of getting pissed up and being annoying, still don't want to go somewhere where the people batter people who do.

 

This threat might make you feel good, but it's really not great for tourism.

A place like Soi 6 will suffer no consequences from a clown getting curb stomped. If you're not a clown you have nothing to worry about. If you have concerns - you just might be that clown.

You don't need to be sad, just word your answer in a way that makes the point you are making clearer.  And think about what the original post was that you are replying to.

 

I was talking about people perceiving Thai people being violent as not being an issue, but foreign people being violent something very bad, not whether or not Thai people are ever violent, so your personal experiences don't really apply.

 

E.g. "Thai people may be drunk, violent, aggressive, etc., sometimes, but personally I have never had a problem with any Thai person.  Even when they jump the queue in front of me, I tell them to get to the back of the line, and they do so." - This still doesn't really apply to what I wrote, as that was a matter of perception, but it makes it a little more relevant.  I would certainly agree that Thai people are less likely to be confrontational than a Westerner.

It makes Thailand and Thai people look bad.  Not just the street that it happened on.  People won't even remember exactly where it took place.

Do you think so?  I think it makes tourists look bad, rather than any Thai people.

17 hours ago, it is what it is said:

 

yea, the guy was drunk and in the wrong, but professional door staff will never get into unnecessary street brawls with members of the public, however much they are provoked.

100% 

 

While posters may commend the actions of the bouncers, the rest of the world sees news reports - Dickheads are always going to come to Thailand, does it mean Thailand has to be dragged down to this level. What’s the problem with just standing strong, asking the guy calmly to go home and calling the police. If this country wants to attract better tourists, they need to distance themselves from this behavoir.

Of course.  It's one drunken idiot and a crowd of mostly Thais encouraging him.  Noting is done to deescalate or defuse, and he doesn't actually get violent with anyone, but eventually one security guard, who shouldn't get violent with anyone, punches him.  As soon as he is down, loads of Thais (who he has not harmed and he is no threat to) rush in to attack him while he is vulnerable.  They even attack his friend who had only been trying to calm the guy down.  If they had not been stopped, they might have killed him, and there was likely a racial element to their anger and desire to harm him.

 

I'm not sure how you can not think this makes Thais and Thailand look bad.

Here is how it started.

Ok then, it makes everyone involved look bad.  Soi 6 is not all of Thailand and those who work there are not most Thais.

I suspect there was more before that.  Had he been in the bar concerned and been asked to leave?  The girls that joined in once he was on the ground, looked they were gaining revenge!

Yes, not everyone down that Soi is kind and polite like us Jacko

I would imagine that for every one they teach some manners to there would be another ten that come very close to receiving a lesson.

 

Stressful dangerous job dealing with drunken idiots every day year after year. They really deserve an award for keeping the Soi so peaceful.

I don't think it does, but then Amsterdam isn't in a tropical climate where these types can roam around shirtless in flip flops all night, plus Amsterdam nightlife is nowhere near as hedonistic. For a start the brasses are all behind shop windows. 

 

I think the difference in Amsterdam is the girls are not in bars.

someone said there used to be no security on Soi 6.

once, a tourist was roughing up a girl and a normal citizen took it upon himself to handle the tourist.
