Stabbing season has arrived, if it ever really left

While police forces and governments may try to curb the availability of AK-47 assault rifles, shotguns, pistols and hand grenades, it's a difficult task keeping the average person from being able to wander around with a sharp knife, of whatever length.

That being the case, it's probably no real surprise that each year the number of news stories involving people getting sliced and diced or merely stuck somewhat painfully, with a sharp knife are legion.

Not the brothers Karamazov

What can be upsetting is when sibling rivalry is mixed with a liberal amount of alcoholic refreshments, sexy female is thrown into the pot, and someone has a knife.

Two South Korean men, who turned out to be brothers, were arrested by police after being injured in a fight over a woman at a karaoke bar in North Pattaya.

obviously there is a need to call in more girls if guys are fighting over availability

SOS all over the country

Wonder if employing journalists has ever occurred to this publication.

i thought it was illegal to serve alcohol in a karaoke bar that had hostesses

i thought it was illegal to serve alcohol in a karaoke bar that had hostesses

I've never not been served alcohol in one so must be along the same lines as prostitution when it comes to enforcement.

Fighting over a bargirl in Pattaya ?! Thats like fighting over a gumball in a candy store. Sounds like its more based on disrespect than over her...surely.

Without a Korean translator available Pattaya one didn't realize that the heroic older brother just save his younger brother from waking up to a rough hello from "girl" that was a little from column A and a little from column B.

...not that there is anything wrong with that

These two men have penises for brains.

the fact that this is news must be a sour reflection on local tourism revenues.
