ColPyat Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 The man should be crucified at the New Airport as a warning to all other deadbeat lowlifes that run away from the reality of their own lives. ...which, according to your logic, must include the majority of sex tourists, who should accept reality and better seddle down with a women their age and physique, from their own society, instead of running away to Thailand so they can be with women of an age and physique they have no hope of being noticed by back in their own countries. Lets better hang all we can't agree with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grover Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 No deception?As another poster pointed out already, no sick buffalo stories? No attempts to get a monthly stipend by pretenses of everlasting love? No faked orgasms, and everybody is a hansume man? Haha. Very funny. Reminds me of the joke in the jokes section: why do women fake orgasms? because they think we care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cdnvic Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 (edited) Looks like some people care about their communities, others just want to protect and feed the scum who destroy them because they follow some juvenile ethos from mobster movies. Fortunately there are enough people unwilling to wallow in fear and surrender to the lowlifes that add nothing to society. "Mean streets" weren't always mean. Someone had to surrender them.

rafval Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 I really dont understand why this guys life is so important to other people, if you want to get uptight what about the farang junkies that go from guest house to guest house in the koh san area using stolen passports as ID and breaking into rooms to steal anything of value which they sell before the police can come, thats if you can get the police to come, the owners of the guest houses certainly arent interested, at least this guy gives you an option Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The threat that he poses cannot be allowed to escalate. All those saying 'leave him alone, he's not doing any real harm', or even worse ''i used to love it when we had scammers and chancers on every corner, those were the days when Bangkok had characters' are missing the point. If you allow problems like this to develop, ultimately a crime might be committed which nobody, no matter how liberal, can condone. Should we wait for that to occur before doing something? Or should something be done now? I think the answer is fairly obvious. The guy sounds like he has a serious drug problem, it's hardly unheard of for the crimes of such an individual to take on a more serious tone if they get desperate. Like i said, if this scammer guy is still prowling the streets when i get back in January, i might have to have a word with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John_Rambo Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 I've been thinking about this, and i reckon that getting a gang of us to hit the streets of Sukhumvit and bring this guy to justice would probably be the way forward from here.

teej Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 (edited) It is so easy to make one mistake, that leads to another, and results in a chain event that cannot be reversed anymore.Everybody can end up on the street one day, and find himself in exactly the position this guy is in. If we follow this "series of mistakes leading to chain of events" theory, then who is to say that this guy's next "mistake" won't graduate him from the level of "departure-tax-scammer" to thief or outright robber? If his chain of events cannot be reversed, then it can only move forward (or in this case, hopefully stopped), and forward means worse (more "mistakes" leading to more "events")and perhaps more deceptive and dangerous ways of paying for his addiction. I would venture to say that if push came to shove and nobody "gave" him money anymore, he would surely find other "less legal" ways of obtaining money...

Yes, of course, best solution to end worldwide crime - hang the people before the actually commit the crime. Lets just start with one broken down farang in Bangkok who is getting a few hundred baht of people by telling them a fabricated story and with this making them feel compassionate.

tropo Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 (edited) As by legal definition, a bargirl does not provide a "legit" service, because prostitution is tolerated in Thailand, but not legal. I think you misunderstood. In case you don't already know, using quotes " or ' mean's the word is not to be taken too literally. Be prepared to strech the meaning a little. 'Legit' in the sense there is an exchange between two people without deception, unlike the scammer. I think it was clear from the context. No deception? As another poster pointed out already, no sick buffalo stories? No attempts to get a monthly stipend by pretenses of everlasting love? No faked orgasms, and everybody is a hansume man? Obviously Grover believes all the bargirls tell him. Grover, just as a service to you dude, please consider this theory: If their (bargirls) lips are moving, they're lying. Read that, understand that and save a fortune and heart break. If you consider that a tad harsh, then try this one: Assume they are lying until you've found conclusive evidence to the contrary. This might not happen on your first barfine/meeting with your favourite girl, but it will happen. What concerns me is that you think it doesn't. That's dangerous.

tropo Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 (edited) Yes ....live and let live....but that applies both ways, the best thing for this gentlemen is to get some help, which pratically means he has to return home. It's become clear now that he doesn't want to go home. I suspect being homeless in the harsh Canadian climate is not on his wish list. What now? The reports are he is an addict, and therefore not likely to save his funds but is living day to day. This is the classic poverty trap. Eventually he gets sick, bashed or has some other problem so that he cannot scam for a while…what happens then? Thailand has no obligation to him at all, Canada does. Canada is a first world country and has first world social and health services, Thailand is not and has little if nil social services available to a Farang. I also think Maizefarmer answers this point in his post above, with an actual example of the German guy who spent many years in jail, which is a far worse fate than being in a Canadian homeless shelter. It often happens that down-and-out homeless drug addicts are hoping to be locked up. That's one reason why authorities usually think very carefully about such cases before jumping in an arresting them. It would appear that the Thai authorities already know about our Canadian "scammer" and realise he's addicted. Has anyone considered they might be using him to capture the dealers?

John_Rambo Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 You are a bit of a clown - coming for a holiday to Thailand so you can start a vigilante posse chasing a farang beggar off the streets. As of January i'm going to be living in Bangkok full time, and i don't want to see that sort of scum harassing people on the streets in my neighbourhood. You might hanker for the good old days where scammers and chancers roamed Bangkok ripping off innocent civilians at will, but personally i'm glad that these sorts of characters are finding it harder to thrive. If the authorities are not efficient in acting, then it's only by responsible civilians hounding and refusing to allow these deviants to prosper that the situation can be further improved. We have to show the Thais that we're not happy about these chancers either and that the upstanding moral majority of us are happy to be part of the solution, rather than part of the problem. There has been some negativity in the media about some of the falang in Thailand, and this sort of guy just further damages our reputation. If you don't like the way Bangkok will hopefully be in the future, devoid of these reprobates, then i suggest you start looking for another country with low enough standards to match your own to live in.
