geisha Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 Is hé Nigérian ? With the huge African populations in Bangkok, surely the police have interpreters? They all seem to be in one area of Bangkok that has a street market at night, can't remember where it was , but I was really surprised to see so many Africans obviously living and working there. Do they get easy visas or what ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think the textile traders will be hoping for that and I somehow think that their many thousands of buyers might just be considered a little bit more important than a farang who is miffed at seeing a handful of drug dealers hanging out near their favourite girly bar.

Do they get easy visas or what ? There has been a large Nigerian population in Bangkok since the early 80's, many have citizenship, Nigeria is one of Thailands most important trade partners, they buy a large percentage of the rice as well as textiles, a lot of the Nigerians you see are traders, the few hanging out in Sukumvit are often people who came here hoping to do trade but failed and got lured into the drugs business.

Yep, works like this : if there's a mad shooter in the vicinity, the one with the vest is supposed to quickly place himself between the shooter and the cop without the vest. Takes some rehearsing though, but hey, humans can achieve amazing things when they set their minds to it and exercise regularly.

Thian Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 59 minutes ago, JAG said: On closer inspection it looks like it may be a stab vest rather than bulletproof. If you are dealing with a crazed individual who has chosen to lie down in the middle of the road then it is probably quite a wise precaution! I never heard of a stabvest, we call them leather jackets. If i was a policeman and had to deal with a crazy dangerous person i wouldn't touch him at all or even come near him. My gun and mouth would do all the work untill i could easy put the handcuffs on while he was laying on the floor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TechnikaIII Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 The racists in this place ... sickening. A guy loses his marbles, and because he is black ... you really sink the boot in, with your references to slavery as well.

fittobethaied Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 Sounds to me like the example of the typical Thai dog. I've always wondered if lying in the middle of the street is learned from the soi dogs or the dogs learn their lazy unbelievable behavior from the locals. Maybe this guy imagined he was just another Thai dog! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is not only PC to show disdain for bigotry, it is also morally correct, so in answer to your question, no, people will never stop having morals, and it is the racists that will die out not being unprejudiced which is a growing movement that is expanding in line with increasing levels of education and intelligence To clear up your lame attempt to avoid racism being called racism, take a look at the definition. "The international definition of racial discrimination is contained in Article 1 of the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination (ICERD). It states that 'the term 'racial discrimination' shall mean any distinction, exclusion, restriction or preference based on race, colour, or national or ethnic origin which has the purpose or effect of nullifying or impairing the recognition, enjoyment or exercise, on an equal footing, of human rights and fundamental freedoms in the political, economic, social, cultural or any other field of public life'."

None of the comments above have the effect of nullifying or impairing the recognition, enjoyment or exercise, on an equal footing, of human rights and fundamental freedoms in the political, economic, social, cultural or any other field of public life of this unfortunately nutty Nigerian. They are in the main JOKES. I recognize racism when I see it (and it happens enough on TV for sure - usually anti-Thai racism) but I don't seriously see it here (maybe one or two a bit iffy). But nobody said that all Nigerians are always sleeping in the middle of the road. ??? do they? For me; and most here, sleeping/lying in the middle of the road is an amusing (if tragic) occurrence. The poor guy does not look hurt in any way and will at least get some treatment in Thailand, even if it is just a sobering-up. I though he was displaying a very large foreskin piercing, is that racist? Should I have said a very small (Thai size) piercing? Golly no, that would be racist. And if you think I actually am a racist, come round and ask my 3 black (according to the locals) Thai kids what they think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
