"We all are going to die!"
It doesn't fit the narrative Trump haters live and breathe for....they can't answer any question unless it starts with "Oh yeah, but Trump blah, blah, blah". Amazing the amount of rent free space President Trump lives in their heads. And some like to ask questions like: Of those paid Democratic shills that WERE in the meeting, what color socks were they wearing? -

Accident Helicopter Crash in Prachuap Khiri Khan
UPDATE Police Inspector-General Urges Caution Over Helicopter Crash Claims, Loose Bolts Theory Not Yet Confirmed Pictures courtesy of InsiderThailand Thailand’s Police Inspector-General has urged the public to await official expert findings before drawing conclusions about the cause of a police helicopter crash last week, amid widespread media reports claiming that two loose bolts were to blame. The incident occurred on 24 May 2025, when a helicopter belonging to the Royal Thai Police Aviation Division crashed in Prachuap Khiri Khan province during an operational flight. Initial media reports suggested that the loss of two key bolts securing the main rotor assembly may have caused the aircraft to lose control and crash. However, Police General Thatchai Pitanilabut, the Inspector-General of the Royal Thai Police, has clarified that while a preliminary physical examination of the wreckage did reveal missing bolts in the main rotor area, this finding alone does not constitute a definitive explanation for the accident. “To ensure the public receives accurate and transparent information, I must emphasise that the presence of missing bolts, while notable, cannot yet be confirmed as the root cause of the crash,” he stated. “A thorough investigation by aviation experts, combined with other technical and forensic evidence, is still underway. Only when all aspects have been fully analysed can we arrive at a definitive conclusion.” He reassured the public that once a full investigation is complete, the results will be made available. In parallel, National Police Chief Police General Kittirat Phanphet has ordered a comprehensive review of the aircraft’s maintenance history. This investigation aims to determine whether maintenance procedures were properly followed in accordance with relevant laws, regulations, and operational protocols. General Kittirat stressed the need for transparency and accountability in the matter, ensuring that any signs of negligence or procedural lapses will be addressed appropriately. The crash has raised public concerns over the safety and maintenance standards of police aviation units, particularly given the high-risk nature of many of their operations. Authorities are now under pressure to demonstrate that all due diligence has been observed and that any systemic issues are promptly identified and corrected. For now, officials urge restraint and patience, as speculation continues to swirl while the investigation proceeds. Adapted by Asean Now from InsideThailand 2025-06-02. -

Crime Man Gunned Down Outside Ordination Celebration in Phetchaburi
Picture courtesy of Matichon. Violence erupted in the early hours of 1 June, as a 32-year-old man was fatally shot in a suspected personal dispute outside a monk ordination celebration in Phetchaburi’s Mueang district. The victim, later identified as Mr. Sakditat, a local cowherd from Don Yang sub-district, was killed instantly after being shot multiple times with a 9mm firearm. The incident occurred around 00:05, on the roadside of the Nong Bo–Bo Wai route, in front of the ordination celebration venue for a local man named Phonphiphat. Upon being alerted to the incident, Pol. Lt. Col. Prakit Tonmaithong, duty inspector at Rajabhat Phetchaburi University Police Substation, responded along with senior officials including Pol. Col. Chokchai Nielsen, the superintendent of Mueang Phetchaburi Police Station. Forensic officers, medical staff from Phra Chomklao Hospital and local rescue volunteers also attended the scene. The deceased was found lying on the road near his parked grey Honda ADV motorbike. Eight spent 9mm Super casings were recovered nearby. A pistol holster was found on the victim’s waist, and a loaded 9mm handgun believed to be his was located by his feet. A post-mortem revealed eight gunshot wounds, including to the chest, head, shoulder, side and limbs. According to Ms. Suthicha, the victim’s 29-year-old cousin, Mr. Sakditat had earlier dropped off his five-year-old son at her house, telling her someone had called and asked to meet him. About ten minutes later, she was informed he had been shot. She stated that the victim had never mentioned having any disputes or conflicts with anyone. Local headman Mr. Ram Phukngam recounted that just prior to the shooting, he was alerted by villagers that some young men appeared to be on the verge of a confrontation near the celebration entrance. He arrived to see Mr. Sakditat arguing with several youths and attempted to defuse the situation. As loud music blared from the stage, a series of gunshots rang out. When he turned back, he saw the victim collapse while the assailants fled the scene on motorcycles. Pol. Col. Chokchai confirmed that the suspect has been identified and efforts are underway to locate and arrest the individual. While the motive remains unclear, investigators suspect a personal dispute may have led to the shooting. Authorities continue to gather evidence and interview witnesses as part of their ongoing investigation. Adapted by Asean Now from Matichon 2025-06-02. -
