ourmanflint Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 wow! 2 in one day. Thailand is becoming the hub of murder by numbers. The police here seem to be the stupidest in the whole wide world, every murder attempt is always suicide when it involves a foreigner. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chooka Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 What they didn't rush to the scene? It's good that he survived so at least he can give his side of the story and not just what the police say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Thai Travel Bug Posted March 6, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted March 6, 2015 (edited) wow! 2 in one day. Thailand is becoming the hub of murder by numbers. The police here seem to be the stupidest in the whole wide world, every murder attempt is always suicide when it involves a foreigner. Many foreigners come to Thailand for a holiday. Many SINGLE foreigners come to Thailand once, and are smitten by the girls, the culture and the lifestyle. Many SINGLE male foreigners that arrive in Thailand for the first time are taken in by how easy it is to find "love" in Thailand. Many male foreigners are lured back time and time again by the aphrodisiac that is Thailand. And then some of these foreigners get caught out, loved up, robbed blind, lose their shirts, their self respect, their life savings, the lot. Many of the foreigners who come here and suffer what was just described are lonely, often alcoholic, often depressed in their home country, expecting that the disease known as depression wont get on the plane with them. Many have embraced Thailand to the point of becoming fanatical about it, visiting repeatedly, but being financially unable to relocate to the place that they yearn for daily when back at home. Throw all of those things into a bag and there you have it. Many depressed foreigners DO choose Thailand as the place they want to have their last love, their last drink, their last feed, their last smoke before catapulting themselves into the afterlife. These men are from every continent, and the numbers of suicides that occur do look high purely because of the number of "Suicidal s" that congregate to Thailand for their last big hurrah. The number of suicides in Thailand by foreign nationals far out ways the number that are murdered here by Thai's or foreigners alike. Thailand attracts many a lonely, alcoholic, depressed foreigner that has no desire to go home. EVER.
