Thian Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 So they walked in a busy tourist-area, got driven into by a motocycle and than stabbed. Then read what this reader posted in the newspaper. Josephine, sweden | 23 March 2016 - 19:35:05 I was there. The knife injuries was mainly on the man's belly on the left side. He had already lost a lot of blood when I came to the place. Had a first aid kit with me and gave CPR but it was too late. While I gave mouth to mouth someone stole my handbag. It's hard to have hope for humanity sometimes Trust me, we are Thai.

geriatrickid Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 Just the look - thinks he is a hard man. See how he gets on in prison. He'll be with friends and others he knows. It isn't difficult for many of Thailand's worst criminals. They have the connections to get by. It's tough for the poor kids, the elderly, the mentally ill, the drug addicts etc. Phuket's prison is just a meeting place for its hardcore thugs.

IamNoone88 Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 Patong is full of people like this. It permeates through from tuk tuk drivers, so called security guards to wanna be hard men. As long as there are tourists to leach off of, this will continue with certain predictability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will2011 Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 The report says about the murdurer: "Even though Somkit came to help me, I realized I was not going to win the fight because both tourists were stronger than us so I decided to use the weapon". (http://www.thephuketnews.com/patong-pub-security-guards-arrested-for-fatal-stabbing-of-frenchman-56741.php) We all know that most international tourists (Westeners and North Africans) are stronger than locals. Just not going into a fight is the best option, as they are unmanly cowards to whether outnumber you or use a weapon in a fist fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brer Fox Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 Patong is trying hard to take first prize as the <deleted> of the earth. I keep telling everyone I know. "Keep away from Phuket, particularly Patong". If you value your life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whyamiandwhatamidoinghere Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 "they have also been charged with attempted murder and carrying weapon into a public place without a permit" So carrying a knife into a public place requires a permit?

LivinginKata Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 OK, two Thai jerks are on the way to prison and one drunken French Arab is dead. I have no sympathy with any of the parties. Looks like the world is getting bit cleaner every day I expect they will both be already be out on a low bail. I don't really expect they will serve much jail time ... if any ...

You're telling me there's something somewhat similar to the Geneva Conventions in fighting? Wigga please! If you do get into a fight, you fight to win (survive)...by any means possible.

Gutenberg Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 This will happen: 1. They spend some weeks in prison. 2. Then they will get out on a ridiculous small bail. 3. Charges will dropped to "carry weapon in public place". 4. After first court hearing in 2019 they appeal the 3 year sentence. 5. Supreme court in 2025 reduces the sentence to community work. Any bets? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
