KhonKaenKowboy Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Looks like he was "flopping" to garner sympathy. The Arab rage on Sukhumvit Friday Night was way more intense. Russians? Roidheads? Boiler Room guys on Holiday? Hitting an of occpied vehicle could also be criminal...some good size donations will be due... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gk10002000 Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 the reason so many Thais got involved was it likes like the asian, presumably thai lady and child with the helmets on were on the motorbike. Can't quite tell if the fat farang was on the bike also, but it would be a good geuss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tropo Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 The victim's fault here. There's no point aggressively approaching a car to complain about something that has already happened unless he's confident he can defend himself and/or back it up with some firepower. He's lucky the driver wasn't Thai. If he is married to a Thai and has a kid, then he's been here long enough to know better - especially in Pattaya.

Kadilo Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 If his daughter was sick he should of concentrated on getting her to see a doctor rather than picking an worthless argument. I love the hypocrisy of the Thai taxi drivers. Like they would never get involved in anything so sinister.

JamJar Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Always disappoints me reading the comments of some here...especially some long standing members who should know better. Poor character indeed. There is nothing wrong with remonstrating with someone who is putting your family in danger. In fact, it is almost to be expected. Not everyone is happy about being sprayed whilst riding a motorcycle. The 'victim' didn't swing or even attempt to throw a punch. Perhaps just symbolically pushing the car door in response to what was being said. The larger man threw three punches, two connecting. Totally unnecessary. The 'victim' was never a threat. He has glasses on and was much older. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chang50 Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 If the water splashing story is true I'm not at all surprised the older guy got angry.What does surprise me is just how few fights break out between farangs and non participants every year,as my experience is Thais will desist when asked but Farangs rarely will even when a good reason is provided.

He was a total plonker. He did not put his family first, he put his ego first. and arrived very late at the hospital, caring so much about his daughter. If your going to pick a fight try and make sure you can win. BTW IT IS SONGKRAIN WHAT DO EXPECT. YOU WILL GET WET, IF YOU GO OUT IN IT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Sensible advice" after the fact is useless. Remonstrating with someone doesn't give the thug licence to use his fists. Especially if said thug knows that it is defence of family. Know the deal? That there are mindless thugs roaming the streets and their equals condoning their behaviour. We know that, but that doesn't excuse the violence. Hopefully he will be punished.

champers Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 If everyone who got doused with water confronted the throwers the streets would be awash with blood. You have to grit your teeth and move on pronto, keeping your temper in check. An incident like this proves the point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marinediscoking Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Totally ridiculous spraying someone from a window in the back seat of a car. I am sure the Russian kid rolls it back up quickly after spraying his targets. This is not the full on Songran day yet and most places out the water zones people are using some common sense this year. Reminds me of the nobs who trow water on people from balconies 3 stories up to passers by, who themselves have not chance of getting wet. I hope the Soi 9 boys actually take some action on this.

Once I was walking along a Bangkok street and an IDIOT foreigner ran up to me and sprayed me directly in the eye with one of those high pressure blue pipes. For HIS sake, I took a deep breath. If it happened to one of my children.... There was no excuse or reason for the violence and anyone here who condones it is no better than the steroid fuelled idiot.

katana Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 The story was reported in Khaosod today (Monday). Apparently the incident was sparked by a child in the black car squirting the small girl who was riding pillion on the back of her father's motorcycle. The girl was ill and being taken to the hospital. You can hear one of the Thai's say langsam (slowly, take it easy) to the old guy as he tries to get up, which suggests he's German.

Forethat Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Seriously, what's wrong with people? The most disturbing detail in the video is the little girl who has to witness her dad being knocked out. What an absolute textbook example of "how NOT to behave in Thailand". Surprised if either will last more than a year before ending up in REAL trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So its two parents squabbling over what one child has done. with a water gun over songkrain. Handled in a very mature and sensible way. 5 star Plonkers. The guy should have just carried on to the hospital. with his sick little girl. Nah i go teach that guy a lesson !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! oops, went a bit wrong that one. Amazing plonkers in Thailand.

By an angry Thai mob. Watch the Guy in the white shirt 'really' damage his car by kicking at the front door. Didn't seem to be interested in taking him on now did he.

Radar501 Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Three up on a motorcycle.....with an ill child....in Pattaya.....during Songkran.......is asking for trouble.
