halloween Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 (edited) As a partial solution to this problem, can I suggest a law that motor vehicles used in the commission of a serious crime be seized on arrest and forfeited on conviction.

trogers Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 I still advocate building an arena for such youth to achieve their aspirations, instead of using public transport and roadways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, invite all the tech colleges to send a team, as many as volunteer, armed with swords, ping-pong bombs, clubs and knuckle dusters. Assign a different coloured t-shirt to each college for easy differentation, lock them all in and let them go at it. Then shoot the last bastard alive. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Upset Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 I am really confused! Eversince the coup and despite threats by the military junta to eradicate vocational students fighting.....the cases of murders and shootings and brawls have actually gone up in the last two months. Whats going on? Who is taking responsibility and who is going to be moved to inactive posts? Or do we need to be patience as the are doing their best while more die and get hurt?

LotusBoy Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Boys will be boys ... Hmmmmmmmmm, wondering if you would make such an obtuse comment, if it was your son coming home with a knife wound or even worse! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkkgooner Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 And what will happen to the kids who carried out this attack? Nothing. They will be regarded as heroes by teachers and fellow students at their "school" and they will little to no punishment from the justice system. How about cracking down on these schools and handing down some proper custodial sentences or immediate drafting into the army for offenders. Everyone just sighs, shakes their head and gets on with their lives. I don't see anyone actively trying to solve this problem in Thai society. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richusa Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 When you buy a motorbike in Thailand you get a choice of machettes to choose from, and a 10% coupon from the guy you see carting around all sorts of knives, cleavers. sharpening....etc...
