Sorry, this group don't have guns as usual, or run out of bullets. They are on the next mode of fighting. Only anti-aircraft missile launchers and nuclear weapons left.

SABloke Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Not here long enough my friend. Everything is for sale. Selfmade guns. Grenades. Bazookas. Etc. The advantage of having once were lawless states surrounding your country. In myanmar alone there are enough weapons in the hands of ethnic armies to provide thailand for the next 50 years [emoji6][emoji44]?Surely you mean, "The advantage of LIVING IN a lawless state" >_> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's wrong with these young people! More likely what is wrong with the parents, police, law enforcement (lack of) etc. Not discounting the " connections" which tends to give carte blanc approval to do what ever suits you.

mtls2005 Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 No one really wants to follow the trail of military grade hardware here, especially from remote "armories" where stock gets "rotated" out the back door in monthly sales. Transparency and all that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stargeezr Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 A bad attitude and different point of view, with no morales, is what it takes to buy a grenade and use it. Intelligence or lack of it is not a factor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ulic Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 So, some teenager disrespected another teenager and the guy who lost face escalated. I guess the old "sticks and stones can break my bones but words............." has never been translated to Thai and these children have never heard such an saying.

mtls2005 Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 So, some teenager disrespected another teenager and the guy who lost face escalated Brawls between rival youth gangs resulting in violence are hardly news-worthy? More often than not they are associated with rival technical schools. And while they usually just hack away at each other with shop--made machetes they do use single-round homemade zip-guns, and the resulting inaccuracy usually claims the life of some innocent. These gangs are actually encouraged by the "powers-that-be", albeit informally through "alumni" contacts, and have served as a sort of unofficial militia which can be used to put down pesky students and commoners.

Khun Paul Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Temple fairs are an affront to the general public and a nuisance to the people living nearby. Should shut at midnight with zero beer and alcohol sold. They are no longer the pillars of the community rather the place where no-one but the Monks can say anything and so anything goes. Deaths fights, drunkenness and sexual assaults to name but a few of the crimes that go on at these places and the AUTHORITES do nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pukehina1 Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Rattan Cane is needed to adjust these miscreants at an early stage as they need to have the errors of their way enforced on them, it works in Singapore and Malaysia as not too many line up for another arse walloping plus the social stigma attached is character building........

No 'church' or parish ever organized anything closely as ridiculous and contradictory as what they call a 'temple -fair' here, not where i come from or ever visited in Europe, the USofA, Canada ... or several Muslim countries for that matter. Just to clarify: i don't give a hoot for any and all so called religions. Meathead? It sure takes one to recognize one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In NA countries, drugs are easier to buy than cigarettes. Just the way things are. Probably stole them from daddy's army pack. But shocking that they had this fight at a temple. My friend has witnessed two killings here, one in a nightclub and another at a market where they hacked a guy to death with a machete. Very dangerous country now. Take care out there!
