Pity there isn't a "shaking your head in bewilderment" emoji, i could use for this comment. I wouldn't go anywhere near any expat who feels they have to own a firearm. I didn't think that there could possibly be another reason for disliking Pattaya, but you have provided one. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And how many farangs in Pattaya have been attacked by feral cats in the last years? Sorry but i don't get it imo own a firearm here in Pattaya is the best way to have a ton of problems and end murdered or in jail, but you have probably your opinion i will be pleased to hear your arguments tyia 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ta158 Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 All the comments talking about USA, Europe being worse than Thailand is hilarious, USA and Thailand have same or very similar rates of gun murders, USA is considered bad but not Thailand despite having same or similar gun murder rate. No European country except russia, has higher murder rate than Thailand or gun murder rate, but Europe is so awful and Thailand is safest country on earth... Yall think UK is so bad with it's around 650 murders yearly, but Thailands at least 2,000 - 3,000 murders yearly minimum is very safe and good. And most people here most likely cant read or write thai, so you automatically miss the other shootings and stabbing or other crime news, as thai visa and bangkok post only post a few cases. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stargeezr Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 The way the shooter wandered around after shooting the other guy, is chilling. It seemed that no one acted surprised, and called the police, they just kept doing what they were doing. Even the guy taking the video seemed calm. Strange situation.

RichardColeman Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 I've always told the wife, that at some point we will all move back to the UK, sell house down south and buy large house up North away from people that has a large garden. We will order in all our food, and enjoy the garden, our house and our time together. World is just full of rubbish now, where ever you go. Better to live happy on our own, away from everybody with their stabbings and shootings and mass murder and bombs and riots and protests - not my world anymore 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
