    We made do. That period and my teenage years in Sydney were the best times of my life

    The point I was making, however, was that life was good- there can be no denying that. For us. Not for a large swathe of the population

    Neither do the Antelope, Bear, Ducks, Dall Sheep, Moose and all those other critters on the food chain.

    Bear & Moose are not particularly tasty though...

    Yes, it's worth a smiley. It would be worth a belly laugh if it wasn't so naive.

    There's no need to import a pistol. They are easy to buy in Thailand. The 'paperwork' is subject to scrutiny at the Amphur where the licence is either granted or refused. The police will do a background check and may put in a word on behalf of the applicant but they don't make the decision. A foreigner can apply for a licence but the scrutiny is more difficult because of the criminal background check and the requirements of residence and work.

    I have been offered a handgun by two senior police officers who asked whether I wanted a legal one or one of the other type. I felt certain that they were prepared to sell me either a confiscated or an illegal gun. The paper trail would probably be defective, leaving me exposed to problems with the law later. The word 'imported' in the earlier posts may be an indication that the gun on offer would be illegal with no supporting documents and, probably, no Thai serial number.

    There's only one safe way - buy from a licensed dealer.

    Well it looks like 99.98% of Chicago's population don't kill....
    ...and 99.94% don't kill nor rape

    How you gonna justify killing 15% of 'em?
    According to the 2012 crime stats for Chicago, there were 384,000 serious crimes reported.

    So if we do the math 384,000/2,700,000 - ~14%. Since many rapes and other crimes are not reported, and given that many of the criminals commit multiple crimes, than you could probably say that you could have a relatively, crime-free Chicago just by killing less than 10% of the population of Chicago (the hardcore criminal elements).

    I would guess that the number would be actually much less, because even the most stupid criminal would soon catch on that committing serious crimes means a very short life.

    So the real question, is whether killing a quarter million dirtbags in order to make the other 2 and a half million decent people, safe from these predators a good idea? I think so.

    (But then again the liberals would probably lose way too many of their voters!)

    Hey QC,

    Here are a couple of pics from a few years ago, showing the wife and me with a couple of guns. The pictures were taken in two different homes, with two different Thai families. So yes, Virginia, guns are already readily available in Thailand.

    ^ your pics and links don't work and the notion that guns are available in Thailand is hardly shocking news.

    Clamber back under the bed and 'oil your clip' or whatever it is that you terrified old farts do.

    Did you know that Guns&Ammo magazine is not actually meant to be masturbatory material?

    Pistols in Thailand are ridiculously expensive and my pistol would be legally imported regardless of my current work/residency status in Thailand.

    Anyone who has spent any time in Thailand learns that when it comes to Thai laws, there are "multiple ways to skin a cat". There are always "exceptions to policy".

    One poster on another thread claimed that any pistol over .9mm cannot be legally owned by Thai citizens. I know for a fact that some Thai citizens legally own pistols of .45 caliber.

    Talk about being naive.

    QC,

    If you knew that guns are available, then why did you make such an inane comment about "Frosting your nipples because of bringing ... to Thailand"'?

    I realize that many liberals become emotional and semi-hysterical when discussing issues that upset them, but come on, talk about doing a 180.

    And the reason my picture links didn't work at first, was because I was making the links manually.

    And your last comment about G&A brings you down to the level of Okie. Based upon your past posts, I thought you were much smarter than that.

    The highest figures I could come up with for Chicago were 27,957 violent crimes and 118,877 property related giving a total of 146,834 crimes or around 5.4%.
    Chicago crime rates and statistics - NeighborhoodScout

    So you are suggesting capital punishment for almost all crimes? ...well even a sniff of a crime if it only has to be reported as one.

    You still can't see how insane the notion you are putting forward is?

    "Property crimes" spoken like a true liberal or criminal (or criminal lawyer).

    I consider home invasions, car jackings, and all other forms of felony robbery violent crimes. Whether violence is used or not, the potential is always there.

    Apparently many lawmakers agree with me, as many states now have laws where a homeowner or resident can shoot an intruder without being charged.

    Why leave it up to the intruder to decide if he/she wants to inflict harm? If someone breaks into your house, then it is no ones fault but theirs if they get shot.

    Nothing insane about the idea of killing criminals in the commission of serious crimes as opposed to letting them get away to commit more crimes, or spending millions of taxpayer dollars in the revolving door of the US justice system.

    If a small segment of the population cannot refrain from inflicting violence and theft from the majority, than let's get rid of that small cancer, so that honest people can live in peace and safety.

    JMO of course.

    Just used that local as a counterpoint to rocker's growing up in Grosse Point. Both places are very upper class.

    Not sure it's legal to kill off 250k dirtbags, but might well be if the next revolution shakes awake enough decent folks.

    And not the black ones, that would be racist.

    Really, BM, you need to stop just using ridiculous, clearly staged pictures for discussions.

    It's funny in the low class dem and knuckledragger threads but in threads like this? Come on, no necessary
