Future Supreme Court Cases That Could Reshape Key U.S. Policies
As a citizen of the USA ,I’m against further threats from the left to manipulate the laws that millions upon millions obey when it comes the the second amendment!Ghost guns is another made up term by the antigun movement! Guns are a inanimate object , its the people who disobey laws and use them illegally , that are the danger. “People in the United States have been making their own firearms for as long as guns have existed. The Second Amendment right to own and carry firearms includes the right to fashion homemade firearms”. https://www.criminaldefenselawyer.com/resources/homemade-guns-are-they-legal-must-they-be-registered. -

Elderly Swiss man busted with gun at Phuket Airport
True… but taking one on a plane adds hyperbolic level of severity. My Brother In Law was caught with 3 guns in his car (licensed but outside of the permissible area of use). - 10,000 baht fine. - Monthly check in with local Police. An unlicensed gu would draw a more severe fine, outside of an area such as an airport. But caught ar an airport with a gun - that’s surely going to result in full on ‘extreme’ penalty… especially as it wasn’t a ‘military officer making a mistake’ etc… (I.e. no understandable or reasonable explanation) -

Down under or Thai? Aussie mum trades Oz for Land of Smiles
Like a ruling system dominated by the military and no customer rights. Anyone using the phrase nanny state is beyond rational discussion - if you want nanny take a look at what this country tells you that you can say, read or write. What rights you will have as an immigrant, how thy decide where you can work and look at education and healthcare... needless to say they have a workaround for property ownership? or a secure rental agreement? -

Wine In Checked Baggage
Ok, I didn´t see that. Have no link at all. However, I did declare some years ago, but as we all know they work different and maybe saw a chance to get Friday party money. Anyway, I will get information tomorrow directly from the customs at airport as I am flying to Dubai. -

Huge markup on imported foods. Why?
MAJOR problem with Thailand imho. Seems cheap overall but VERY low quality - applies to EVERYTHING (apart from the obvious 💋) it seems with very few exceptions. If you want a comparable quality of life with the west it's VERY expensive though it's easy for us to rationalise it away. -

Feel sorry for AN posters who bought electric
Yep, the typical electric car owner has the personality of Rain Man. They memorise all the green power statistics but not the real cost. Without the subsidies the whole industry would be toast. I did not yet see an independent signed off audit of on the electric cars and I suspect that the these cars pollute the same or more than petrol power cars. Electric cars lost out 100 years ago. It is ridiculous that tax payers are subsidising these cars for the rich. -

Taking Thai Baht out of Thailand
I don't think anyone would risk using them anymore....have you seen the reviews? seems like a big scam. For a large amount I would never risk cash and possible issues with customs.....go through your bank.....bangkok bank process my international payments despite many people saying you need to fall in a certain category e.g. have a work permit etc -

Spreaders of Conspiracy Theories: Unmasking the Motivations Behind the Lies
that's the point. people mix all sorts of silly conspiracies with real ones, so people think all conspiracies are nonsense. some conspiracies are silly nonsense. but some conspiracies that seem crazy are true. -

Huge markup on imported foods. Why?
Maxwell changed their ingredients slightly about 2006, just before we moved to Thailand. We switched to Nescafe. -

Elderly Swiss man busted with gun at Phuket Airport
I guess it was leaving as he was caught at Gate 81. That’s where I’m missing the boat & left wondering… - (Travelling from Phuket) Gun found in check-in luggage, flagged & they pick him up at the gate. - (Travelling from Phuket) Gun found in carry on at at security check point at the gate, but isn’t the security check point much earlier than the gate area ? - (Travelling from elsewhere) Gun flagged in checked bagged bag by x-ray screening, picked up passengers on arrival at gate 81 (though that makes less sense ‘cos they should have spotted the gun & pulled the bag & passenger off the flight before departure) So…. I’m guessing you guys are right a the gun was caught on departure - but it’s not sure if it was in checked in or hand carry. -

Macron Warns EU Could Face Collapse Without Urgent Reforms
Article under paywall, so I cannot read the parts of the article you did not mention. BTW, I am not claiming the whole economy is military. My claim is that the growth (the extra 3% GDP), is mainly fuelled by military expenses. Oh, and there was no growth between 2012 and 2021, under 'normal' conditions (no extensive war) -

Why is the MAGA movement so susceptible to crazy conspiracy theories?
I can niether confirm or deny both of those questions/theories/accusations. However (later after considerable pressure to actually answer a simple question) I doubt the first and highly suspect the second. -
