Well i'm not a scared person but also not stupid...i don't feel safe in thai malls/airports because of the lack of armed guards, and i mean highly trained ones (commando's) like i see abroad on every airport....In thailand even the police doesn't look impressive to me, even not the hanuman team. It's fashion now to start a shooting in a mall, the only reason why Prayuth is in charge is to keep thailand safe but he's failing in that like in everything else he does. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many moons ago, I had an offer to buy a beautiful Walther, Para, 9 mm from my neighbor. Luckily, there's a misunderstanding when I was trying to buy it, and I thought the guy said "Boss," ( he's in the military, so I thought it wasn't possible to purchase it) but he meant "Both," a little boy who lived at their house because his parents were divorced and daddy was a criminal, It later turned out that the gun was "for hire" from 6 to 8,000 baht, including five bullets. A few weeks later, when a loan shark wanted to have his Somtam at a restaurant near a private hospital got killed by two shots in his head by two men wearing helmets and black clothes. Then the news. The gun that these men were using was the gun that I almost bought. We had some police officers in our former MC who gave me this information. The world is small. Isn't it? It's too easy to buy a gun here. It seems to be much easier than finding an honest woman. - ????☺️☺️☺️☺️ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easy to calculate how many more guns: Take the number of males over say16 years old and there is the answer, no wait a bit then add about 50% of over 16 females and not finished yet , say 10% of either sex under 16 and that gives you about the answer i think plus or minus a few hand grenades and the odd rocket launcher, lest not forget the knives and swords, which is why when i am driving if somebody cuts me up, i just smile.

seajae Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 once again we see this <deleted>, just goes to show that thai males do not have the mental capacity to have or own guns when they continually do this sort of thing becaue their feelings are hurt. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have no idea how many illegal firearms are in circulation. With the current poor economy it wouldnt take much for a Thai to surrender his weapon for cash. Yes, because criminals will just give up their guns because they were asked to. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check out the Thai news channels, every day incidents with firearms, there's an endless supply of perpetrators, Thai nightly dramas, always plenty of fire power on show. Can't expect any other type of behaviour from these morons. Edited February 28, 2020 by roo860 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Tracy Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 Now the proposal is to have 20 year old conscripts armed with weapons of war in shopping malls? Arming security guards? Why not treat the cause, not the symptom? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure any government actually thinks about that before knee jerk populist actions.
