chrisinth Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 Seems to be a problem here with getting guns into the court buildings. Second time in 2 weeks; granted the earlier case involved shackled suspects which to me would be slightly more serious. if it wasn't for the two dead men in the latter case.

Seems to be no problem with getting most types of armourment into almost any government building here. Years ago things called " metal detectors " were invented. I believe there are some working models at Suvarnabhumi, maybe the powers that be might like to have a day out to go and see them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mick501 Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 Had some recent personal experience with courts. There are security guards and walk thru metal detectors at all entry points. It was entirely optional whether you chose to walk through them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

emptypockets Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 Why is it when a farang dies the serial RIPpers come out on force and the handwringers give lectures about showing respect, yet when two Thai people are murdered it is quite acceptable to make jokes?
