I believe this couple. Entirely credible.

First off, I would do little noël. Secondly, if someone started pulling at me on the street, I would start shortening his lifespan. Third, she is cute she says. Those who did it were not criminals but cops. She forgot to mention that there's no difference.

For some reason I had to read that post maybe about 7 times, then I gave up.

You have shortened my life also

Everyone gets robbed by the Thai police. That's what they do. Put in on your list when you visit Thailand because its gonna happen.

Question for the experienced ex pats - is this an actual likely scenario? Maybe they broke an actual law, maybe they dissed the king, maybe they gave someone a bad attitude. I can't see anyone targeting backpackers. What are they gonna get? Dirty socks and underwear? Plenty of better targets of silly farang tourists walking around with watches, jewelry, and too much cash on them.

Typically in this forum every commentator has the answer. Their own view and comment but with no supporting facts!

 

Where is the evidence? Where are the facts?

 

It's just like the USA mainstream media dreaming up stories to get at Trump.

 

Surely we can do better than that. Can't we?

 

Yeah, like there is a need to make things up about the Mickey Mouse moron grand poobah of trumptopia. .

You had to read it seven times because you are not wearing your prescription glasses.

Nowadays even flashpackers pack a pretty penny, appearances mean nothing. Thanks to immigration some folks are now walking around with up to 20k cash on their person, each.
