Just1Voice Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Two things come to mind: 1 - Thais love Thais 2 - Thailand is a Buddhist country. Dead wrong on both counts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cornishcarlos Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Temple festivals do seem to be a magnet for gang confrontations... No respect for a religious establishment.. Even Highlander never sliced anyone in a church ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peteregion Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 In some countries, people also get killed in a Church, a temple or a Mosque so quit quoting religions. Christians do the same things, Muslims do the same things, Hindus do the same things. At least I know many Farang Thrash here..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
