Na not like that Pattaya Street Robbery Gang targeting foreigners

That's just a good lawyer's work for not even a fine making them a symbol for the Thai version of Robin Hood and the band of merry men ONLY ROB FROM THE RICH and give to the poor.

Haha he's got 'the point' down good!clap2.gif

Acutally it is not good because he is pointing over their heads. This evidence will be invalid!

And instead of point why didn't mr Farang pull off that bloody ski mask.!

Tourist will not be around to testify in court, so they get away with it, thats why.

Do these thugs realise the trouble that they have heaped upon BIB? Senior plod have had to be dragged off the golf course , don their best whistles and berets, spend interminable hours in 'make up' and spend more time practicing their smug smiles of satifaction. How dare their disturb the sleepy peace of law abiding Pattaya? Off with their heads.

Let's hope for real justice. If found guilty in court, (A very public court case, public in all

the Thai Papers) and a long jail term for each, perhaps this will send a message to the

other "little thugs" to think twice before attacking other people on the streets. No 500B

fine and on your way to the next victim.

Dream on...
