Late-Night Street Racers Disrupt Pattaya Residents
Thappraya Road is terrible. It seems a mad race from the Thepprasit Rd intersection up the hillto the axis / Pratumnak intersection/lights. Dreadful. It seems mostly those larger farang rental bikes. More police checkpoints required, confiscate the bikes, fine the riders, fix the bike within a week and present it to the police afterwards. No compliance? cancel registration and insurance and sooner or later they will be caught and the bike is history. -

There is no effective police force in Thailand, and no active enforcement, so what do they have to fear? -

Thats cute how you repost something from the convicted felon fraudster that literally looks like something a 14yo would post, and think it somehow helps your argument. -

Non citizens removed from voter rolls calamity
Republicans are suing more election officials over voter rolls in several battleground states September 20, 2024 Washington (CNN) — Attempts by conservatives to purge state voter rolls ahead of the November election, including from Donald Trump’s campaign and the Republican National Committee, are ramping up, prompting concern from the Justice Department that those efforts might violate federal rules governing how states can manage their lists of registered voters. .... Questioning the accuracy of voter rolls has long been a hallmark of right-wing efforts to raise doubts about the integrity of elections and featured prominently in 2020 when allies of the former president pushed false claims that scores of fraudulently cast votes helped Joe Biden win the presidency. ... The right-wing effort to purge voter rolls has largely centered around claims that noncitizens are casting illegal votes in favor of Democrats. But reports of noncitizen voting in US elections are extremely rare. The right-leaning Heritage Foundation’s database of confirmed fraud cases lists fewer than 100 examples of non-citizens voting between 2002 and 2022, amid more than 1 billion lawfully cast ballots.

Late-Night Street Racers Disrupt Pattaya Residents
I live in a 10th floor Jomtien Condo that overlooks 2nd Rd. The noise of motorbikes/cycles going through the gears like a Silverstone race start is a constant. Last night, I awoke around 2AM and noticed it was unusually quiet. Must be raining, I thought but a glance from my balcony revealed a police check-point set-up on both sides of 2nd Rd, next to the Rimhad Condos. Quietest it's been since Covid lock-down. I hope they come often. -

Non citizens removed from voter rolls calamity
And as for your "calamity,": From the nonprofit Brennan Center for Justice that focuses on voting rights issues: Noncitizen Voting Is Already Illegal — and Vanishingly Rare April 17, 2024 The Brennan Center is part of a broad coalition tracking election-related disinformation. A big rumor we’ve identified rattling around the murkier regions of social media is that hordes of noncitizens are voting. That’s false. A lie. An urban myth. But it has also, somehow, become the glue that’s holding together disparate wings of the Republican Party. ... In 2017, my colleagues Myrna Pérez (now a federal appeals court judge) and Douglas Keith conducted an exhaustive study of 42 jurisdictions in the 2016 general election. They found that “election officials in those places, who oversaw the tabulation of 23.5 million votes, referred only an estimated 30 incidents of suspected noncitizen voting for further investigation or prosecution. In other words, even suspected — not proven — noncitizen votes accounted for just 0.0001 percent of the votes cast.” [emphasis added] (more) https://www.brennancenter.org/our-work/analysis-opinion/noncitizen-voting-already-illegal-and-vanishingly-rare- 1

Non citizens removed from voter rolls calamity
More misleading nonsense..... as previously reported here, since the Alabama action didn't just target individuals who were believed to be non-citizens: "Last month, Alabama Secretary of State Wes Allen announced that he had begun inactivating the voter registrations of 3,251 people who had been previously issued noncitizen identification numbers. A Justice Department review of the purge also identified multiple native-born and naturalized citizens who were incorrectly identified as potential noncitizens during the voter purge. A coalition of voting rights groups separately sued Allen earlier this month over the move, alleging he illegally targeted and intimidated naturalized citizens." https://abcnews.go.com/US/doj-sues-alabama-election-official-allegedly-purging-voters/story?id=114317068 That's in addition to the fact that Alabama's entire attempted purge of its voter rolls, according to the Justice Department, would violate federal law by being done too close to the upcoming federal election. The only "calamity" here is that right-wing Republican election officials or Republicans at large in various states are attempting to force voting roll purges that end up targeting Americans who are legally entitled to vote. -

The Rebirth of Canada's Right: How Pierre Poilievre is Shaking Up Canadian Politics
That may be true, but already there were scandals upon scandals before the Lieberals won the previous election. Canadians had the chance to toss the bums out, but with their votes clearly showed they didnt mind how things were going. Thus, there is a very good chance Trudeau wins a 3rd term despite what current polls show. Wait till the media starts shaping public perception of PP. -
