Horrible Incident - Horrible Farrang

[BazilFox]

A horrible incident happened a few days ago to a lovely mild mannered 60 year old Englishman in Hua Hin.

A local bar owner form America/Canada went into the Railway Tavern where he was abusive to customers, he ended up assaulting the Bar Owner who is 60 years old dislocating his shoulder and cracking some ribs a Thai lady in the bar lossed some teeth, a further farrang was pushed over some parked motorbikes on this crazy drunks exit.

I know the Englishman personally he is a very mild mannered 60 year old who minds his own business, shocking really.

The drunk abusive American/Canadian runs a run down breakfast bar called the <name removed> he rents this bar, I will report him to immigration to check his papers, I suggest everyone who goes to this place goes somewhere else (not that many do).

Anyone else know anything?

And why exactly are you getting involved????????????

[sam666]

If it's true, why would he do that? And who is he then? And no one could stop him or call the police?

Sounds fishy.

[H2oDunc]

Either he is an American or a Canadian. I don't think you can be both ? It certainly makes a change from the usual aggressor being English rather than the victim. Battering a 60 odd year old and a Thai woman isn't exactly the done thing though regardless of nationality.

Don't think so.

And if he really did this, why hasn't the farang put some cash up and sent the thai women tto the BiB? Would get the job done quite fast.

Naming and shaming is illegal in Thailand, even if you can prove it, until a court ruling exists or arrest has taken place and published in mainstream media. Thus against Forum rules, so please no name or exact location.

Some people have two passports and nationalities. As for '...usual agressor being (pick nationality)..." - pardon my French, but this is a stupid (not personally meant) stereotype. Also, what would you do 'back home' - call the police?

Not that i don't think Dunc's comment was silly, but " English " is not or are not a " race " of people therefore someone can't be racist by being insulting towards the English ( which i am for the record )..

It's teh saem for anyone who calls some a " * insert country name * Idiot "

That's not being racist.

Race = an arbitrary classification of modern humans, sometimes, esp. formerly, based on any or a combination of various physical characteristics, as skin color, facial form, or eye shape, and now frequently based on such genetic markers as blood groups.

Lesson over anyway & ..

& Bazil, don't go to Immigration, go & give the Fella one square on the Jaw for the Old Boy & Thai Lady & other Farang if you feel that strongly..

Actually (to be a little less arbitrary ) ... "A race is a distinct population of humans distinguished in some way from other humans. The most widely observed races are those based on skin color, facial features, ancestry, genetics, and national origin. Conceptions of race, as well as specific racial groupings, are often controversial due to their political and sociological uses and implications. "

So, yes, it was a racist comment. Now the lesson is over.

If he runs the bar mentioned in the earlier posts (before the edits), he is definitely not from the U.S.A. I go there for burgers and beers occasionally and I've never met another American in there. I know most of the American owned bars and restaurants in town, being a long time Hua Hin American expat and that is not one of them, unless it has changed hands recently.

Sounds like a great candidate to be deported. Why hasn't the Thai woman gone to the police?

I didn't get any of it wrong Mensa Candidate, i just didn't see teh rest of the meaning of it which, if i did, i wouldn't have wrote what i did...

[BazilFox]

He is Canadian.

The English guy has a broken arm, the Thai Lady has a chipped front tooth and a missing tooth and heavy grazing to her legs, he actually man handled her and threw her out of her bar onto the road (what a brave man this Canadian git is,a wife beater).

Anyone who wants to know the name of the bar run by the Canadian PM me, everyone has the right to know the type of people running a business.

The incident has been reported to the Police, two meetings have ocurred with the Police, so lets wait and see.

60 year old man who is known to be mild mannered gentleman and a Thai lady, what a brave guy this canadian wife beater is.

So just to be clear if you had read all of it, because I mean who really reads anything all the way to the end certainly not us mensa candidates(!), you wouldn't have written (copy/pasted) that which you did as it would have been incorrect yes?

Ahh I get it now. You weren't wrong just incorrect. Its all clear now.

either way if he is mexican, a yank or canadian they are all in america hence americans. imo there is a great deal missing from the story, mild mannered brits can cause problems too.

ha ha ha good one(!)

But what has that got to do with either misunderstanding the term racism or the OP?

Just fancied starting a slanging match? Grow up you mug.

Thais and Cambodians speak different languages. Americans and Canadians speak the same language and to someone who has no ear for the different accents it's not easy to differentiate between them.

enough name calling

Hey don't tar us all with the same brush... this is Hua Hin not Pattaya! Thats like me saying the American guy probably couldn't hold his beer, or had a crap sense of humour! Anyone in the wrong place at the wrong time can be a target. I have only ever had trouble twice in LOS and both times it was drunk Americans on holiday wanting to fight over something stupid. But hey, you probably can't hear me down here with you being sat so high in your tower!
