webfact Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 "I need this sword to protect myself", motorcycle man tells Chonburi cops Picture: Sanook A young man stopped riding a motorcycle with two other people said that he needed a sword to protect himself. A picture published by Sanook showed a policeman with the lethal looking weapon. A mobile patrol had made a traffic stop of two men and a woman on a Honda Click with no license plate outside a college in downtown Chonburi. One of the three - none of whom were named - said that he had gone to Sri Racha to pick up his girlfriend who was involved in a dispute with a colleague at a restaurant where she worked. He took along the sword for his protection, he said. Charges of having a weapon in public and riding a bike without plates were made and all of those on the vehicle are being checked for drug taking. No drugs were found in their possession. Source: Sanook -- © Copyright Thai Visa News 2019-04-05 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluesofa Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 He'd be much better off with a sharp tongue and a quick retort to protect himself, rather than a physical double-edged sword. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure you must mean 'overtake you in an offensive way, or honk their horn at you in a vicious manner'? Then retaliation must surely be needed, for causing such a serious loss of face.

SS1 Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 A bit extreme a sword is.. I also have a compact expandable baton hidden in the "glove compartment" of my scooter. Never used it so far and not planning to, but I know it's there in case of a hairy situation. All kinds of crazy bastards on the roads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, your honour, he overtook me in what I can only describe as a 'supercilious manner' so, as you will understand, I had to react. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
