EnlightenedAtheist Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 This is appalling, of course!I hope these people get jail time, but is it not possible that this could have been a hit paid for by a bigger fish? Could this video recording be in fact done to "entice" others to pay on time? In some ways, it would be more civilized to send a recording of this to one who needs to pay! Sad, though! Smart cameras recording of these are finally showing the true realities of the world we live in. It is about time. However, a casual glance on the Net points to similar occurrences (1) in the West, sometimes perpetrated by the police. (Not to say that this could or does not happen here too, btw. LOL) (1) https://www.google.co.th/search?q=us+police+beating&oq=us+police+beating&aqs=chrome..69i57.3871j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#q=us+police+beating&tbm=vid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or, are you just using this sickening attack to bash Thais, kind of low, don't you think? So why did the Thais not intervene then , typical Thai cowards, Takes 6/7 to overpower a female or any other person , Police are as culpable anyone for not stamping on it hard along with the Thai Justice system. But the thai ways is Not my business up to them ,.Sabi sabi. Edited May 9, 2017 by Thongkorn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you're right in that the system is bad. yes, case to case of course is handled differently. think cops jump on cases involving westerners as they hope to make more money in fees. friend of mine was crashed into by thais and the thais wanted him to pay for their damaged car. my friend had it all on dashcam and took it to the cops. he was a bit disgruntled he had to pay 1000thb to the cops to sort it out when he was clearly not at fault. was a lot cheaper than paying the excess to fix the other car.

The police seem to know this was a loan shark related hit because the woman hadn't made her payments on time. The woman may well not want to press charges because of the repercussions which might involve other members of her family - some loan sharks are quite powerful and influential figures so the police are saying to the woman, which way do you want to go with this.

SiamBeast Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 I also suspect it might be a loan shark case - I don't think that a gang would attack an old woman like that for no reason. The beating was exaggerated, and inappropriate for that kind of person. Now I have a question (and I'm not supporting the beating, just want to see what others think), if you give a loan to a woman and she fails to repay it because "she has no money", and uses the argument "I'm a girl, you can't hit me", assuming that the court fees would be higher than the loan, what would you do? I own a few apartment buildings and I had a guy who was constantly paying the rent late. One time, he was 4 months late and said "I have no money". I waited for him to go to work, showed up with a big moving truck, took all his furniture to a nearby warehouse, and removed the door of the house. I patiently waited for his return and informed him that he would get his stuff back as soon as he paid the rent he owed me. He really cried and said he had no money. My answer: "Not my problem, call someone". He called his father who brought a cash payment 2 hours later, and I brought his stuff back. With the "proper motivation", people find enough money to repay any loan. That lady probably lacked that "proper motivation". Just my thoughts on the situation in the video, maybe I'm wrongly interpreting this. Nevertheless, there are more peaceful ways to resolve this kind of situation.

OmarZaid Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 If it is because of a debt to gangsters, this manifest a true failure on the part of Thai men to protect helpless citizens from such organized thuggery and profiteering, which I believe is a core problem, and a much more pressing a matter than the prostitution that serves it.

Right - I'm not advocating beating an old lady, I'm asking what other solutions do you have when facing a deadbeat non-repayer when the loan terms were clearly agreed and followed by the book by the loan shark. I'd personally never be able to hit an old woman, and there are surely better ways to handle the situation.

Minburi police told Daily News that they know who the attackers are. We are just giving the offenders enough time to dissapear ! Total Disgrace ! My thoughts exactly, but the report was inaccurate as it said Thai MEN, well not in my bloody book, worthless scumbags not men. Why the delay? The complaint filed, drag the useless oxygen thieves in and make sure they get shot whilst escaping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
