I dont see the problem for him if  he has Thai citizenship in fact Id  be  basking in the media  attention to get more customers.

I see TV is doing its  bit by re advertising his facebook page and trying to contact him............before you start slagging off all the negative  views.

This is the reason I do not engage in Social media Why would I want my laundry held open in public 

People never learn 

 i must have mised somthing here . can you explain where you saw that he has thai citizenship ??

if he is ,he has absolutly nothing to stress about .

I have no doubt the harassment has sprung from this very cesspool of a forum.

I have been to other Thai expat forums, this is the polite one.

Try the gay ones if you want a full-on bitch fight. Some seriously nasty people on one or two of them. Fortunately they seem to be in a death spiral with two people in an echo chamber most of the time

Gaz, don't let the jealousy and simple mindedness of others beat you.  Show them how strong you are.  Get your arse back off the floor and get your life back on track.  Make and sell your burgers and take care of your lovely family.

Best wishes to you.

So handicapped people should be able to break the law and get special treatment?

 

I bet he gets disability money from his home country.

 

UK, of course he will.  An if he kept quiet in the first place & not advertise his past all over Facebook then he would still be open today.

I also think the locals or officials have been at him. Can't be just people on websites havin a go at him.

Like someone here said: some very bitter, sarcastic people on here with too much time on their hands. Wish anyone who makes an honest living to support their family all the best. 

if he knew that most of the posters here are teenagers sitting in their mums basement pretending to be grumpy old expats he might not take it so seriously

He never asked for the attention. He just want a life? Is that so hard to understand for you?

What if one simply doesn't read the comments on facebook? Is it illegal not to? -_-

 

 

Most of you are nothing but a sad explanation for existence.

You frustrated old imbeciles have nothing better to do then talk about others.

I would like to see how many of you would be strong enough to do what Gaz has done.

Go do what you do best, get drunk and talk <deleted>.

There is nothing wrong working for honest life. Only thing allowed for foreigner married to Thai is take care your wife and your beer!

NOT CUSTOMERS! By looking at these, all handicapped or physically challenged should be allowed to be work in case if they have a visa of any kind.

Law is disgusting if it doesn't like humanity.

Did he post it himself on Facebook then?

All the above and he ended up in this situation? I think that bad train has,

for him, left the station long ago...

Also FB is not your friend, and once your story is out there, you're at the

mercy of the media, curse of the times....

Gee, Remind me again why I don't have a Facebook page.  Oh yes!  It was the opportunity of stuff like this to happen to me that made me value my anonymity.   This is why I use TVF not FB!   I know many people love it, but how many millions of lives has it destroyed because people were too lazy, conceited or stupid to use the "contact groups" feature in their email program.  And learned to type before they learned to "think before they type".   My wife has just had to open a FB page because her business really requires it. Otherwise she would have still  been the one-in-ten-thousand Thai woman without it.

What business is it of yours what money he gets and where he gets it from? 

The man lost both legs in an accident, he IS disabled and therefore is entitled to some form of help! 

 

A man with his determination, positive attitude and willpower will not be defeated by the nay sayers. 

Don't give up Gaz! 

Ignore negative people, they have nothing.

There are some people whos lives are so depraved all they can do is be critical of others, we see it daily on these forums - people who generally have nothing good to say about anything or anybody, they are best ignored but unfortunately not everyone can do that, we see it already on this thread

 

Actually I feel more sorry for those people.  It's obvious they are not happy in their lives and feel the need to criticize in order to get a sense of superiority or daily dosage of satisfaction.

if he only would wear long trouser , nobody would notice him.

Then he would just be the farang selling burgers , do that in a quiet soi and nobody cares.

Sorry for his loss, but also a little bit to blame on himself.

Yes, but the lack of long trousers may be why the authorities were ignoring him.    The local powers that be might have been turning a blind eye before because they secretly admired him for it, but now????   Not so sure now it is so public.     Perhaps give it a few months then quietly reopen in a different location. Lesson learned!!

Why not? many people advertise their businesses in Facebook - that's normal. Did he play on his disability on his Facebook page? If not then why the aggro - are you one of the people he is talking about spewing abuse?

You think FB superior to TVF? I guess that's why we're all made differently.

Why read FB ? I don't and have never missed it. Why let negative comments get you down if you do read them, it's only opinions and other peoples opinions shouldn't bother an adult man, how can you be such a wall flower after all you have done.

Don't let the bully's stop you life to short be happy keep selling ur burgersTIT

how's that?  explain how a farang had 'Thai citizenship'?   if he does have he doesn't need a work permit right?  

Ex boxer, athlete, airline pilot who somehow managed to faint on a rail track and had both legs ripped off and who then got Thai citizenship and sold burgers. he should write a book and then get it made into a film, all that's missing is his time with the special forces or MI5.
