Happy Grumpy Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 It just means that Thais are twice as good at shooting than their inferior yank brothers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mogoso Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 All those gun control laws and....... This. California has some pretty strict gun laws too. It ain't the gun that does the killing! No more than it was the knife that did the killing of that guy on Pahonyothin a few weeks ago over the Ipad, or that guy machete that killed that family recently, or the hoe that did the killing on Koh Tao, or the psycho that slit his girlfrinds throat on walking street, or the baseball bat that beat that biker to death recently in Pattaya, or........ The US is pretty high up in death by guns with about 60 % of them being suicides. Another stat the US drops significantly in gun deaths if 4 cities with strong gun control laws would be deducted from the US total those cities would be Chicago, Washington D.C., New Orleans and Detroit. Those long time bastions under progressive control aren't the safest places in certain sections where drug gangs operate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fey Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 Why are is there never any hysteria over these weapons that kill people all the time? Line 'em up portray them as the Evil Killing Machines that they are. I guess guns go "BANG" though, which makes them more scary. That's just silly. Guns are a cowards way of killing, as they can do it from a 'safe' distance. With a knife you must get up close and personal with your intended victim, who may be able to turn the tables on you. Most Thais are cowards, especially if alone. you more likely to hit an innocent bystander with a gun, knives are also much less lethal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALFREDO Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 The numbers are hopelessly skewed all the way from the initial reports of a death through the multiple classification filters applied by the powers-that-be in each country. The only people who believe a statistical report are those whose viewpoint is supported by that report Who does not find a good LINK and please forget NATIONMASTER, comes with these arguments, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pansi in fishnet stockings Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 (edited) they usually forget to mention that thailand has an undeclared war going on down south that adds a significant volume to the numbers. whereas in the US its just drugged out religious gun freak loonies gone berserk. so in thailand you can make reasonable attempts to avoid getting shot whereas in the US you just never know when or where the next drugged out religious gun freak loonie is going to snap.

chicago faggot Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 (edited) "Being the third largest city in the United States, Chicago is notorious for its violence occurrence worldwide. Statistics provided by the Chicago Police Department show that as of Friday morning, homicides in Chicago went up 52 percent in 2016, compared with the same period of 2015; and shootings had increased by 50 percent. Five months of 2016 have witnessed at least 233 people killed in Chicago." reference: At least 40 people shot over Memorial Day weekend in Chicago can you ever remember a long weekend in bangkok a city of about the same population size as chicago, when 40 people were shot. when the military has a shooting extravaganza spree maybe?

Moonmoon Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 I don't care what rights or amendment you believe in, Thailand is just not ready to have gun ownership. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beautifulthailand99 Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Plus having guns around in the household makes the possibility of an accident happening between family members just as likely or even more so than protection against an intruder or assailant.
