scorecard Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 A bottle shaped dent in his pickup? And the open question at this stage - why did they throw a beer bottle at his truck: - Just hooliganism - For a specific reason, like did he cause some danger to the motorcyclists and they retaliated by throwing the bottle (I'm not suggesting that's OK)?

Popular Post NeverSure Posted January 5, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted January 5, 2014 I hope I'm allowed to say this. One thing I notice about Thais is they seem to have a very quick temper coupled with very little value of life.

spidermike007 Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 Well, the upside to this story is that this simple minded gang of hooligans may hesitate next time, when considering whether or not they should throw a beer bottle at a strangers car. Perhaps they may reflect on their friends death, and say it is not worth it. Or am I projecting too much intelligence and ability to reflect on these fools? Sure, this clown over reacted. Killing someone over something like this is a bit over the top. But, one wonders who are these kids parents, and why have they been so absent on the job? Why even bother to have kids unless you can take some responsibility for their upbringing?

falangadang Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 Throwing a beer bottle at a vehicle would be enough to raise a temper and even start a fight but now the pick up truck driver has incurred a lot more damage to his truck and caused some life changing damage to his own life and that of the family of the deceased let alone the death to the victim himself. Thinking things out or acting with restraint don't appear to be strong points of your average Thai male in such circumstances. The fact that the law goes very soft on such cases would have to be one reason why we keep seeing repeats of these types of scenario! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sirineou Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 (edited) How does any one know that they threw a bottle at him other than the fact that he told them so? Th How do we know most of what we "think" we know? How do we know you didn't throw the bottle? by reasonable examination of the facts, For instance first of all we don't really know that a bottle was thrown,it was alleged that a bottle was thrown. some one said,"because it made a bottle shaped impression" did it? we look at the car , is there a bottle shape impression? and even if there is, was it made by the people on the motorcycle? could something or some one else had make the bottle shape impression? How do we know I did not throw the bottle? I was else where at the time and I can prove it? How do I know you didn't throw the bottle?

Uneducated people anywhere in the world have very little self control when temper is involved. He was probably drunk too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
