    So maybe these fuckin kids will find somewhere else to hang out, race and make themselves a nuisance. Sounds like the local vigilance committee did a good job. Too bad they had the casualties.

    Sadly there is no other recourse when you get neighbors from hell here. 50 meters down the street from me there's a house of monkeies who run a metal shop and start sawing and banging at 0400 EVERY morning. They also have a pack of vicious dogs that attack anyone who walks down the street.

    The neighborhood is all Navy people (Sattahip) and many of their houses are much closer than I am, yet they (the Thais) put up with it. Nice neighborhood other than these one group of scum.

    Mor Chit gunmen still hiding out in Bangkok: police
    The Sunday Nation January 5, 2014

    Police believe that three men, wanted for a shoot-out at Mor Chit 2 Bus Terminal that left five people dead and six wounded on January 1, are still hiding out in Bangkok.

    Following a meeting by police investigators yesterday, Pol Col Charoen Srisasalak, deputy chief of Metropolitan Police Division 2, said arrest warrants had been issued for Anothai Kerdsanti, 29, Surachai Soithong, 34, and Worawuth Chansukhon, 35, for murder, attempted murder and for carrying and possessing guns in a public place without permission.

    Charoen said the three men, seen on CCTV footage brandishing guns during the brawl, were reportedly still at large somewhere in Bangkok.

    Make it a constitutional right to carry guns. What could possibly go wrong?

    Good to know that there are 3 armed loons out there with no problem in letting off rounds in public places, probably getting ready for a shoot out with the police.

    I doubt these guys are going to lay down their weapons and hand themselves over like pussies, now that they have a Big, Bad Man name for themselves.

    Well you could get shot while you still fumble for your gun to defend yourself. The bad guys always have a headstart, they can attack before you can defend. So it seems bad guys with no guns is the solution.
