gand Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 You can do a simple internet search for 'bangkok acid attack'. "Bangkok Forum: Acid attack in Bangkok, warning to travellers." http://www.tripadvisor.com/ShowTopic-g293916-i3687-k4849284-Acid_attack_in_Bangkok_warning_to_travellers-Bangkok.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gand Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 (edited) It looks like these kind of sickos are not only in the West, but they are a lot less common here. When you do a google search acid attacks, then Afghanistan, Pakistan, Bangladesh and the middle east comes up, the attacks that are happening in the west are mostly by people that came from these areas as well.

lensta Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Bang Sue police later identified a fifth case, which was reported by a victim on May 31 but not acted upon until media coverage of the matter caught the public's attention Why doesn't this surprise me? Yes, it says it all about the Thai police. Maybe using social media to make the bib do there job might replace "tea money" in time. It would be interesting if every road block set up to extract money from motorists was reported on FB or the like, far more useful than writing about what you had for breakfast.

diehard60 Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 "while likely of normal intelligence, was mentally twisted and possibly had bad or traumatic experiences with women."

kriswillems Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Maybe not directly related to the topic, but I would like to warn people when unclogging drains in Thailand. I used a kind of brown liquid you you can buy in the do-it-yourself store in Thailand to unclog a drain. When I put the liquid in the drain, that was filled with water the mixture of water and chemical immediately started cooking and jumped out of the drain. It jumped onto my arm and it kept on bubbling and boiling while on my arm. I got burnt by it and after 3 months you can still clearly see the marks on my skin. The duck toilet cleaner from the article is peanuts compared to this product. This brown liquid is the cheapest, standard thing to unclog drains in Thailand, but I never saw it in Europe. It's a very dangerous product and I don't understand something like this can be sold to just anyone. I am not sure, but I believe the product is sulfuric acid.

Ohyesuare Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 I am not sure if it was mentioned or not but a french woman and her husband were attacked not too long ago and she posted about it on twitter. I think he got sprayed in the eyes, and many people were accusing her of making it up because she was an artist or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tropo Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 It looks like these kind of sickos are not only in the West, but they are a lot less common here. Yeah. It would be pretty hard to beat the case in Miami last month when a crazed man chewed off 80% of a 65 year old homeless man's face. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lakegeneve Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 (edited) A 50-yr old scavenger suspected of splashing acid at people in Bangkok admitted to police he committed such attacks 30 times /The Nation This is the problem with relying on just one news source. This story was available at early am on some other thai sites. No direct criticism of The Nation as they break their own stories that others don't. It just highlights why getting news from variety of sources is important Edited June 11, 2012 by Lakegeneve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
