Foreigner arrested after racially abusing locals in Chiang Mai

[zhorik 15]

until he has had a psychiatric report then people should hold fire. I realise that in the USA they lock up mentally ill people rather than treat them but  civilised countries  have more compassion.  He may not even  have a mental illness but be suffering from Tourettes syndrome. People who complain he is a redneck and should be sent straight to prison without knowing the full facts behind  this are more of a redneck than he is.

I know we are not the brightest lot here at TVF, but does no one recognize this man is having psychotic breakdowns?

Well, there are some fb posts of his, in this thread, no doubt he has mental issues, but the guy is boasting about having been repeatedly to jail, so it appears that his psychotic breakdown is lasting quite a long time.

December is around the corner. That gives plenty of time to whoever recognizes  him in the streets to have a chat... Or whatever comes first..

Actually in the US we don't lock them up, we just let them sleep in parks, live on the streets and fill up homeless shelters.

Yes, his posts claim he is being watched 24-7, 365, by the CIA. Which is silly, it is the NSA which is tracking him and who put the chip in his brain.

Sounds like the guy maybe mentally unstable.

Well, i think you're being facetious, but i won't be really surprised by anything.

The whole world is getting mad.

Should have entered Thai’s mental health system....

 

one does not use a sample size of one to extrapolate to a larger group...

 

the culture is set up to be homogeneous and exclusive....

 

so everyone is a foreigner if not ethnically thai?

Daniel Park , if you check out his FB page can pretty well tell he has mental issues.

What about his two young daughters?

As drunk and crazy as he may have been on this and, reportedly, other occasions, is it fair that they will pay the highest price if you boot him out?

Now, perhaps he is sufficiently crazy to be a danger to them, in which case, okay, they might be better off without him too. To ascertain that, however, he needs to receive some form of care, some form of assessment, possibly even some form of treatment. To say "just" deport him sounds good, but is is not a good match for the complexity of all human beings.

I'm not holding out much hope, but the poor bast*rd might have some good in him too.

 

 

Well, one has to assume that even the most derelict, insane and unforgivable have some potential for redemption. But, that requires a society that is willing to invest an awful lot in "lost causes". Thailand does not engage in much in the way of social work. LOL. So, who is going to do this work?

 

Best to send him home, where he at least has a possibility of receiving some treatment. It looks like he is causing an awful lot of grief here. What is your solution? Just let him roam the streets, terrorizing the locals forever? 

 

Daughters or no daughters, the problem remains the same. Kids are not saints. They are just small people. Sure they need care. What kind of care do you think they are receiving from farang baa mak mak?

He almost sounds Canadian. If he's American he must be from the upper Midwest. 

Obviously a Trump supporter.
