starkey_rich Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 No, I am not blaming the victim, but why walk around with a THB 20,000 necklace? What's he suppose to do with it? Leave it in box and just look at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
transam Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 No, I am not blaming the victim, but why walk around with a THB 20,000 necklace? Maybe because he is a naive westerner with very tacky fashion sense. I wear a Buddha on a gold chain, why do you think that is tacky ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sigurris Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 I wear a white gold chain with a 60,000 baht pendant on it. But because it is not yellow it is of no interest to anyone here. Also no-one bothers with watches. You can wear a 25,000 pound gold rolex and no-one will bother with it as they assume its a fake. Gotta love this country sometimes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dogbreath Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Little shitweasels. Put them to work picking up plastic bags on the roadside and make them wear shirts that say 'I am a thief" in Thai and English while they do it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

umbanda Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 (edited) There are very many world's spots like Pattaya around the world where tourist have the risk to be assaulted, even murdered for little money....even for nice shoes...I am Brazilian.... Every hotel in Copacabana, Brazil, and on every tour agency, shows notices about the danger, and about ways to avoid problems. A tourist wearing golden jewelry, heavy watches, camera bags, etc, etc, is a target..and sometimes with tragic consequences. In Brazil, fingers and ears cuts to get the jewelry, etc. The best posted advise...NEVER walk the beach or park at night, NEVER to resit or pursue the robber... they NEVER are alone, and they ALWAYS have a knife...if not a gun. A BIG guy cannot defeat 5 teenagers with knives...only in the movies..... Somebody looking to go to the Football World Cup in June? Take note....

GeorgeO Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 No, I am not blaming the victim, but why walk around with a THB 20,000 necklace?The way I read it he was sroped on his own bike too. Anyway, it's his constitutional right to be dumb, many will post, and it's the constitutional right of peerps to try to steal it.Funny how they got the one of them posing with the necklace. Funny the Thai police...they can easily apprehend a couple teenage kids for petty theft but can't arrest insurrectionist like Suthep for doing untold billions of baht in damage to the Thai economy. ....couldn't resist it could you...what the hell does this have to do with the anti-government protests...!?! and BTW, it is no-one's constitutional right under the laws of any country in the world to steal anything...!! I thought the police comparison was obvious and looks like someone can't take some humor so early in the morning. A little cranky are we...didn't get any last nite? Humour...? really....!? and what I get up to in the evening is none of your damn business...so keep your nasty comments to yourself...!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sayonarax Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 No, I am not blaming the victim, but why walk around with a THB 20,000 necklace? I do, why would you not be able to carry 1 bath gold? Ah well, I grew up in Kenya where walking around with a necklace like that will get you killed. Because were all from Kenya right? Not all of us come from impoverished country's were mad man roam the streets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jinners Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Terrible or what... Or what? Another two aspiring criminals nipped in the bud. Hope the pickup driver wasn't injured. little shits, I hope they get a kicking and if they want a volunteer, I'll do it!

movsrus Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 To bad the BIB wouldn't turn their back and let the owner have about 10 minutes to straighten out those two little shits. Their parents will likely look the other way then pay a 500 baht fine and the little delinquents will be on their way. A couple good pops to the head would do a lot more to straighten out these dipshits than the Thai criminal justice system will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skorchio Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Well Students by definition are in the Learning process.

Udox Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 I am really curious how these thefts we read about on here (such as this one) are reported and actioned upon so fast. Within what can only be a few minutes after the theft - these two are spotted as fitting "the description" and (eventually) apprehended. How? When I had a loss in the same circumstances, I had to report it at the police station, which entailed sitting around for half an hour or so until somebody was 'available' to take my statement and write me a report. My offer of supplying the offenders motorbike number was rejected as "not needed" So, when an incident like this occurs and the culprits are arrested just minutes after the theft - who do we call to get immediate assistance such as happened in this case I am genuinely interested. (which means spare me the jokes) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lmfao Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 (edited) Is Pattaya a Kip?

steve C Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Scary to see how school students (and other teenagers) target old foreigners to get easy money by robbing or snatching them, even worse when police fine them 500 bath and a slap on the wrist Not only foriegners, two little scum backs like these two and could possibly have been them put a knife to my G/F's throat the other night at an ATM in Naklua, they escaped with her wallet containing the withdrawal plus liscence, ID card etc. She could not give the police a description as they wore full face helmets and in the confusion did not think to take the bike number plate. And yes I agree when and if they are ever caught the punishment is pittance. Thai Rak Thai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I guess you follow Chalerm in his view that the protesters themselves did it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In an ideal world anyone who can afford one! £400's not a lot for a gold necklace but Pattaya is the "wild east" and wearing such is an open invitation to scumbags!!

Andre0720 Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 No, I am not blaming the victim, but why walk around with a THB 20,000 necklace? If not to wear it why else would anyone buy a piece of jewellery, regardless of it's value? Quite right. But then one must determine the 'where and when' before flaunting an easily grabbable 20,000 bahts. One TV poster just mentioned that in Kenya, it is tantamount to a death wish....

No need to wear such bling anywhere, especially in a relatively poor developing country. If that's "blaming the victim" so be it.

Udox Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Where did you read that the chain was worn outside of his shirt? or that he was riding his motorcycle with no shirt? Should we assume then that every victim of a gold chain theft must have been wearing it outside of their shirt (if indeed they were wearing one) Interesting logic, especially when the victims are female.
