“Those who can make you believe absurdities, can make you commit atrocities.” Voltaire Religion is the main culprit, although cults such as many who see Trump as sent by God fit into this category “With or without religion, good people can behave well and bad people can do evil; but for good people to do evil - that takes religion.” ― Steven Weinberg I do wonder how those so upset are so sure the cartoons are of big Mo. It's not like they have any portraits of him... I have Muslim friends. They are good people, better than general populace IMO

Have to go out and hire hundreds of locals to stand in line to ensure that people wait at least an hour to get passport stamped

I'm waiting for "We're turning the corner..." Hey, if it works in USA ought to work here.

Amen. It is difficult enough even if not in wheelchairs or pushchairs. State of walkways may put you in one, however. They are beyond atrocious. Vendors encroaching as near Tukcom so much have to take chances in streets. Random bits of cast iron poking up. Uneven levels, power line posts in the middle of sidewalk... on and on Along with those items, how about hiring all those unemployed to clean up the trash on side sois, streets, empty lots, etc? They have made beach road Jomtien clean, but then got rid of trash cans? Explain that. Walk ten feet off beach road and looks like ci

If head of the virus task force required his own staff to follow simple guidelines (masks, distance, hygiene), this outbreak might never have happened. Stupid is as stupid does.

It's not about the amount. It's about who the money goes to.

You call them "landmarks". We call them "eyesores"

Dang! I just got a box of candles online and now they tell me I shouldn't chew them anymore. What is the world coming to? Oh, candies... eyesight not what it once was.... never mind

Mushy peas. That's my view and I'm sticking to it.

Yes. As they do for any other person in jail. You seem to have no knowledge of US courts. "Any other person in jail"? Really? You could not be more wrong on that. Ever hear of OJ Simpson? I rest my case.

Living inside of a police state that is growing more and more to resemble the world as depicted in Orwell's 1984 is too high a price to pay. Are you saying Taiwan, South Korea and Japan are police states? A bit unclear with what your point is.

"...kept on starvation diets, branded with his initials, and ordered to have sex with him,..." I think food in prison is enough to keep him full, but he will probably be on "receiving end" this time regarding branding and sex.

When Donald gets turfed out, will taxpayers still be picking up tab for his despicable behavior?

Fat chance on getting objective view from Trump. Everything is subjective with him: me, me and me. Don't agree? Notice how often his "assessment" of foreign leaders is based on "I like him"... "he likes me... we get along" etc. If you can get him buttered up with praise, details of diplomacy, treaties etc not so important.
