Get Real Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 Poor man! Just don´t know why they just can´t see that he´s no danger to anybody. Just not the sharpest knife in the box. That´s all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pentap Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 A threat is a threat! Although, some may sympathise with his thoughts, he could however still be a threat to others? Good move by the authorities.Sent from my iPad using Thaivisa Connect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We must see everything like a real threat. Even if it comes from people with no means to do it, no knowledge how to do it and only talks a lot of rubbish. Regarding being a threat to others, that is something everybody have the possibility to be. Does that mean that we have to lock up all the people in separate cells? As I suppose you are well aware of, it´s the silent ones that oppose the biggest threat. However, good luck with you astonishing capabilities of profiling.
