He'll tell the court it wasnt his fault as he was angry at the time. 2 years suspended after paying off the relatives (plus commission 'agents') Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluespunk Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 "An angry man last night shot dead three neighbours after a scramble for parking ended in a tragic incident." Not sure we need to be told someone who murders 3 people was angry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toybits Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 When you study animal behaviour and observe the effect of crowding on a population - you might see similarities. RIP to those who lost their lives. We must do something to reduce human population. NO, I am not suggesting that we exterminate each other.

thesetat2013 Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 Being guns are so hard to find and life is so precious here I find this story completely unbelievable. If its true he will surely wai the family and offer compensation and become a monk for a few months then everything will be OK. Only in Thailand though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thian Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 Nobody wants a Van infront of his shop. They are too large and block the sight, customers look inside barbershops to see if there's a qeueu. RIP poor barbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAG Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 "Bang Chan police they suspected the gunman ran away and hide somewhere in his relatives’ houses." Well here's a startling thought - rather than issuing press releases and inspecting the scene, why don't Bang Chan Police get off their backsides, cut around his relatives and arrest him? No reward in it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaywalker Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 (edited) RIP to the victims and I hope they toss this psycho under the jail. ---------------------------------------------------- I wouldn't know, as I have never wanted to kill anybody, but I suspect a machete would have suited him just fine. If somebody is crazy enough to kill over a parking dispute, then they will kill. The guy was/is off his rocker. Don't blame the weapon, which has a 50/50 chance of being legally owned in the first place. If it was owned illegally, what good is gun control legislation?

ezzra Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 There are lot more guns available in Thailand than sense and patience from the people, behind the docile Thai smile, hide an angry out of control and out of place Thai male pride, quick on the draw and quick to be offended with swift retributions to follow, complete disregards to their actions and reactions..... This Is more or less the Thai society we live in.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This Is more or less the Thai society we live in.... My Thai friends keep telling me that an untold number of Thai drivers carry guns (registered or otherwise) in their vehicles in this country.The same friends remind me to avoid all car-related or road-related confrontations, if at all possible--and however insignificant that confrontation may seem to be at the outset, as they can frequently and instantly spiral out of control. As they counsel me, so many normally laid-back Thais can do a vicious Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde transformation when they get behind the wheel and darkened windows. The proliferation of stories in the news like this are distressing. I'm beginning to believe my friends.

Thinking he lives in a violent society where he may have to defend himself from psychos with guns. Seems to me the fearful ones who have guns to protect themselves are the ones we all need to be protected from. All over a parking space!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sup3r1or Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 I like this word "RUSHED" to the hospital. Nothing is rushed in Bangkok traffic, the cars are not even obliged to let the ambulance get through or move out of the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EyesWideOpen Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 After many years in Thailand, I can say that Thai men are some of the hottest tempered people I have ever met. And quick to resort to extreme violence. So when Thais start telling me an important thing to learn about living in Thailand is to be jai yen yen ( cool heart ) , I generally burst into laughter at the mind boggling hypocrisy.... Guess a clear cut example of " do as I say, not as I do". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pomchop Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 Remember the next time you get a road rage fever over something that the guy you flip off could easily have a gun in his car and be having a bad day and doesn't particulary care for farangs anyway......Often read stories of farangs like I'll show him, or I'll whip his butt etc etc....not if you're dead you sure will not. Generally NOT a good idea to get into confrontations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
