CMfoodie Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 APD officers witness unrest in Thailand CHANG MAI, Thailand - Two Austin Police Department officers are wrapping up a vacation in Thailand in a time of tremendous unrest. Corporal Wuthipong Tantaksinanukij's family is from Thailand. He and Senior Police Officer Dennis Farris are vacationing in northern Thailand. They intend to travel Friday to Bangkok, where anti-government demonstrations may alter their plans a bit.

Brevity Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 (edited) I don't understand the point of this post. Nothing of any interest or importance is said. So what if two of Thailand's many thousands of tourists are American cops sitting up in Chiang Mai where little if any unrest or protesting is happening? They are certainly staying far away from any possible trouble, so perhaps the OP might come back and explain why they've posted this. I suspect there are many other cops from around the world who are vacationing in Thailand but understand that their presence is nothing special.

It's from Texas. Expecting sense or logic from the Lone Star State is an exercise in futility. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bung Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Hold the presses, two US cops are vacationing in Chiang Mai! I guess the Ops avatar sums up this thread........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A1Str8 Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 The post is not pointless. The point is that you need to belong to a certain group, blessed with higher than average IQ to travel to Bkk this time.

Briggsy Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 That is a weird article. Is the US cop of Thai descent boasting? Are we supposed to draw anything from that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loptr Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 As far as the article, it's a puff-piece, filler for the local news outlet. Nothing to see here, move along, before I beat you to death. http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2014/01/14/Officers-acquitted-in-California-homeless-death Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am familiar with this case, as I live in SoCal. But I had no idea that they were acquitted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
