Robm579 Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 It's a regrettable, but inevitable question... There are so many tales relating to corruption by the BIB. One has to wonder if the guy was a drug dealer? How many Pills were really in question here...? Maybe TV has made me into cynic.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khon Kaen Dave Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 I absolutely agree with canopus1969.If even one drug dealer was killed,then it was a blinding success.Pity a few more of these death dealing scum weren't killed along side him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deserted Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 It's only a failure 'offically', internally its a success. Well done police. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhonKaenKowboy Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 I thought "a sting" was when the cops posed as sellers, like they did to that kid at KSR a few months ago, who died in police custody. Setting up a seller, would just be an undercover bust. Nasty drug. Living in a narco-state is one thing...but a narco-state based on Yabba? Naaaasty.
