This type of criminality is really disgusting.

If Pattaya wants tourists with money to spend. Then they need to make Pattaya a safe destination.

This type of random violence with guns does not help Pattaya's reputation as a holiday destination.

Thailand needs to enact severe mandatory sentences for illegal possession of fire arms and crimes with firearms.
