Popular Post JMSIII Posted January 7, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 7, 2020 (edited) So many Thai bouncers are looking for something like this every night, then they get to fight a drunk guy with multiple bouncers... I understand they gotta pay their bill, possibly/probably padded.....but it's not an excuse for the typical beat downs that always seem to happen.

I understand they gotta pay their bill, possibly/probably padded.....but it's not an excuse for the typical beat downs that always seem to happen. They don't look particularly badly beat down. Not compared to some of the pulps that end up after fights here, even being beat up or beat to death by foreigners who then manage to evade justice. Bouncers here have a hard job. Dealing with large amounts of non Thai speaking foreigners who frequent the girlie bars, often get drunk, don't always understand the rules and prices, and then become aggressive with a drink fueled superior attitude when they can't get their own way. This isn't the West where bouncers are mostly strictly regulated and policed. Here bouncers often are off duty police. There is a propensity for violence, quick tempers, egos, and pack mentality here that tourists probably won't understand. 2000 ThB isn't a vast amount of money. Yes, I know it's the principle if being fiddled. But 2k NOT 20 or 30. 10 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Happy Grumpy Posted January 7, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 7, 2020 2,000 bar bill for two of them. They might be sent to a gulag upon return, for bringing shame and embarrassment to every Russian out there. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post DefaultName Posted January 7, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 7, 2020 I'm betting on newbies who didn't understand the ladydrink and/or ring-the-bell concept.

Popular Post KenKadz Posted January 7, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 7, 2020 This comment by Baerboxer explained the whole problem No Control by Local Authorities. Nothing will change until Bouncers and their Employers are held criminally responsible for assaults and/or manslaughter of Tourists when they take the situation into their own hands instead of calling the Police first.

Aspaltso Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 Seems to be the Russian visitors have been victim to a lot of harrassment(ie. thefts of jewellery, assaults, etc.) this last few months. You'd think there'd be some kind of backlash from that community, but I've seen nothing. Perhaps Ivan and the rest just drink away there sorrows, and grievances. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post JHolmesJr Posted January 7, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 7, 2020 It's a shame most of the thais who do these beatdowns are too poor to travel outside Thailand. If they did I predict there would be a campaign to give them a taste of their own medicine. And it would be a resounding success. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post cardinalblue Posted January 7, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 7, 2020 Bouncers here are not trained professionals on how to deescalate a situation...rather they are itching for any reason to get into a brawl...That is who they are... rice farmers who migrate to the city to do any job above construction work... fault lies with management... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post soistalker Posted January 7, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 7, 2020 Once a thai decides to cheat you, that money is already theirs in their mind. This is where the violence comes from. If you go to a bar, order a beer, pay for that beer. Otherwise, if you have multiple beers, the Thais will pad your bill 100% of the time. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could order that one beer, and they can present you with a bill for two beers. You are still in the same predicament.

I seem to remember after one of these regular beatings they dish out to foreigners that the authorities instructed the bars to not take matters into their own hands but to inform the police. Of course, as with absolutely any directive from officials in Thailand, no-one takes any notice whatsoever. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
