webfact Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 Burmese man beaten unconscious by the mob after taking little boy hostage The drug crazed Burmese man holds a scythe to the little boy's throat in hostage drama. Picture: Thai Rath Police in the western Thai border town of Mae Sot, Tak, were called to a village where a Burmese man had taken a little boy hostage. Jor Jor, 45, was holding a rice cutting scythe to the screaming Burmese boy's neck and demanding to be sent back to Myawaddy on the other side of the border. Police talked to the drug crazed man for more than an hour until an interpreter helped out and it was decided to bring a three wheeler to supposedly transport him across the border. But as cops pretended to comply by offering the man a cooling drink a charge was made and the scythe was wrenched from the man's hand. Then the mob who had gathered helped out by beating Jor Jor senseless, said Thai Rath. He was taken away to face prosecution. The boy was treated at the scene and was recovering in hospital from cuts to his face and neck.

jerojero Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 Police had him subdued then let a mob attack him. What he did was horrible but police allowance of, or participation in, vigilante justice is also very wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ve seen a mob in west africa killing a thief with hammer and nails. Plain daylight. Changed my view on "poor africans" that day.... some days later i was at refugee camp and easily "understood" why so many people/kids had chopped off arms... some "cultures" have different "traditions"... as for cambodia... post khmer rouge era was dominated by violence and pts...

Steven100 is a conservative soul with little empathy. People in sorrow or misery are prone to drug abuse. Including nr 1 drug known as alcohol. Often, the biggest haters of drugs voice their opinion when pizzzzed 555. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drug users are no good, they are a scourge on society everywhere. It's legal to have a drink as has been done for hundreds of years. Please don't use the ' drinking is a drug ' line as it is useless.

Benmart Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Crime scene experts who most likely were not there. Judges, juries and executioners, most likely self appointed. Insiders who know all-see-all from a mere news report. Entertaining and sad at the same time. "Those that support the mob, will in time, have those very hands around their own necks".

OK, if you insist: drinking is a drug Alcohol is the main fuel for thuggery, domestic violence, pub brawls, street fights and horrific traffic accidents. Just because governments have made it legal doesn't mean that you should slavishly parrot the government line and insist that "alcohol is good, druggies so bad". Life isn't black and white and doesn't always satisfy the angry mob's desperation for clear answers to every question. There is sometimes a middle path.
