Jonah777 Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 With all the reports and input from witnesses, the news and others who claim to have been there when the incident occurred, but were drunk at a different pub ....be really nice to get accurate and factual accounting of what happened. With all the fake news and embellishments ....don't know really what is fact 'er what is fiction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lacessit Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 I've found Americans to be mostly friendly and engaging. Having said that, there's a case to be made for staying away from them in bars. Trigger-happy, whether they have guns or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are just trying to start a rumour Well, according to the post by Rimmer:- "PATTAYA:--An American man charged with the deadly assault of an Australian was expected to re-enact the fight in a Soi 6 bar and make his first appearance in court this week."

It's a bad situation all around however you can easily break someone's neck by lifting them off the ground. I'm wondering if this has increased business at Ruby's as every time I have driven past it's been packed full of customers. Last night I would say it was the busiest bar on soi 6. Waiting for the re-enactment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got slated by more than 1 poster for reserving judgement until facts were known. I hope all those, that claimed to know the facts, eat their words if this was actually a "one punch" tragedy ... " had a fractured eye socket, probably from a punch. " And probably could have been from a stomping. We will soon know the truth when American does the re-enactment . If he shows himself stomping then that settles it but if he does not show any stomping then it was just accidental death from one punch. End of story. Anyone hazard a guess as to what it will be?

maprao Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 What is it with the re- enactments? I sometimes wonder about the country I have decided to call home (albeit on a temporary non imm status) This sort of violence happens in bars and Pubs all over the world. The fact he has previous for manslaughter in the US makes me a little sadder.. I still feel safe in Thailand more so than in London or Washington DC. Maybe just an illusion but that is the way it is. I hope the courts do justice for the victim in this case. The CCTV should clinch it..... Will it be played in court who knows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Act it out instead of hiding, I'd love to see this convicted murderous human act his aggressive behavior. Not so tough without booze and it cuffs though....

whaleboneman Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 2 hours ago, Russell17au said: I would like to know how the American punched the Australian in the face when the Australian was holding the bar girl up in the air by the throat. The bar girl would have been directly in front of the Aussie, so unless the American sidelined the Aussie then the incident with the girl was over and the American had no right to hit the Aussie. To sideline the Australian is a deliberate attack as the Aussie would not see the punch coming and therefore could not protect himself from the punch. I know that we are in Thailand but in Australia if either of these happened the American would be looking at a minimum of 10 years prison Well imagine this: you're holding a bargirl in front of you by the neck and an angry American comes up from the side screaming - so you turn your head to the side just in time to take a fist to the face. I wasn't there but I can imagine limitless possibilities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bust Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Getting a bit off topic. Nobody deserves to have their head stomped on while unconscious. Coward act and the scum deserves to be locked up for a very long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What was the American wearing on his feet? If he was wearing flip flops as would be normal for most, then IMO, there would be more chance of impact damage (fractured eye socket) from a knuckle than a flip-flop even given the increase of force caused by stomping. Again, assuming he was wearing flip flops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sevenbells Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 The Pattaya Mail is unreliable. Most local news never makes publication and whatever subjects filter through are edited in an unrealistic way. Surely no-one takes them seriously?

Like I keep saying. Hollywood has a lot to answer for. When people of limited intellect see something in a movie or a TV show (pun) they are apt to think that is the way the world behaves; so it is ok for them to behave in the same fashion. Someone once said to me..."it must be true because I saw it on the television." I rest my case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
