It was in Bang Saen.

Thailand continues on it's downward spiral.

Why wonder at this as Bang Saen has been controlled by the "Generals" for decades so morality has no purpose.

Sadly guns plays a large part in Thai society and they should make the laws much tougher if carried/fired/threatened somebody with one/wounded/killed. 

 

I believe the UK have very tough weapons laws, Thailand could learn a lot from them

The vast majority of gun crime in the UK is concerning the drug gangs.  Since the police cracked down on anyone found in possession of a gun (I think it is automatically a prison sentence of four years) gun crime has gone down.  However knife crime has increased and many of the gangs and street thugs now use them instead.

 

In Thailand guns are readily available and Thai's think (stupidly) that carrying and using a gun makes them macho.

what the hell is going on in this country????

Due to modern technology and media people like you can see how it (and they) really are.

 

That's what going on.

I often wonder justhow many of the guns in Thaiand have been shipped from the USA  for markup sales prices, after

all the  drug gangs  like to be well armed.

Geezer
