Doesn't matter. The chimps want blood.

They might have a point. A gun discharged at who knows what point and then thrown into a lake/pond nearby does not fit the narrative of accidental death due to a scuffle. It would be easy for Rudolf to fire it after said fellow was dead as a piece of planted evidence...

Maybe the gun was planted and thrown into the pond to destroy DNA.

**panama hat** · 07-10-2021, 07:21 AM

I guess at the basis lies the fact that the guy came into (excuse the unavoidable pun) Rothy's house - anything after that is conjecture.

Somchai still brought the gun there, so fuck him.

We got burgled a few years ago (everyone was out) and after that the wife wanted to get a gun for protection at home. I think that we British are generally very wary about guns and I refused, thinking that it could only lead to trouble with me being a foreigner and no chance that the wife would be able to actually pull the trigger. Also I've watched her taking photos with her phone and her aim is awful... she couldn't hit a barn door with a gun.

Another part of my reasoning was that she has a vicious temper and I wouldn't be altogether sure she wouldn't shoot me during an argument of we had a gun in the house.

So why do many Malays and some Thais look so much like Orang Utans, anyway ?

Why do you feel comfortable with casual racism and idiosyncratic (and incorrect) punctuation anyway?

Come on, show us your handsome features, Karen. A photo would be brilliant, just so we can see what 'allows' you to be such a racist.

**Latindancer** · 07-10-2021, 10:52 AM

It was contact with German people. Supposedly cultured and educated, but who committed so many atrocities in WW2

I'm waiting for the phone records...
She may have lured him with a tale about husband threatening her.
We only have the Swiss guy's account of events. They may be true but none can be considered as facts, not even the victim climbing the wall to enter.
For example, if we suspect a possible intruder, we call someone in the village to check around the house and they usually carry a gun. He may have been doing similar and Swiss guy jumped him before bring body into house.

Etymology

The name "orangutan" (also written orang-utan, orang utan, orangutang, and ourang-outang^[1]) is derived from the Malay words orang, meaning "person", and hutan, meaning "forest".^[2]^[3]

^ As an aside, the military slang Pongo for soldier originates from the genus of Orangutan.

Not sure where it fits into this story though.

**thailazer** · 07-10-2021, 11:08 AM

Good on the Swiss guy for being the live one in the end. Will be interesting to see how this case ends up for him however.

That's bit strong, our dear Willy posts as simian for fun, and loves having his leg pulled, but I know from those who have met him he his a fine figure of Australian manhood with or without snags, you may well ape a man of teh forest more than he?I add my Lord in summary Looper, Balders, MeMock,PanamaMockOzzie and many of your fine Okker bros have never knowingly MISScooked Polit?

I have spent sometime on the upper Malay peninsula in the forests of the Malay Peninsula but have no intercourse with the Dayaks or more remote Asli people of the upper peninsula other than to see a Binturong.
If mapwise you imagine your body is Malaya , Kuala Lumpur be up yer jumper and teh Binturong in the gargle /throat areas towards Gunung Stong State Park,Taman Negeri Gunung Stong, few tourists Chinese,Indians stray off tehbeaten track tehrabouts , I was probably the next Whitey since my pa in teh 1940s

Perhaps the bint you got was wong, on the shady nights in Chulia Street many a lusty lad led astray by teh Pschhht warblers.

Perhaps you were sold a chimp.

Fear not , its not to late redeem yerself, many of my in-laws and recipes involve animals, I realize it must be disappoitng that yer babe went off with a Dingo

Have you tired onanism , many hear speak highly of it or online dating, its great for some , I for some reason kept getting matched with this bi curious guy called Lulu before I met my nurse.

In cocklusion people will give a bit of slck from posters taht they know would be good crack in real life Harry Cy Willy tease me mercilessly as they should all good fun, I feel sometimes you may be unprepared for Polit intercourse.

If I were in your shoes, you'd be shoeless

That's one old wives tale.

Another is that it came from the Naval marching song of "Where the Army goes the Pong goes"....

That's wise. Drunk angry Thais and firearms are not a good combination.

True, I'd forgotten about that one...

I had the identical conversation with my wife today. I mentioned the Swiss guy case and she suggested we get a gun. I said the same thing to her, I said you forget the other day we had an argument and you got pissed off and started banging on the kitchen counter with the big butcher knife? if we had a gun , I would be a dead duck.
She said that we can lock it in a safe that I only know the combination.
Then when I told her that as a foreigner I did not think I was allowed to have a gun, she said that her friend told her that with my thai drivers licence and Yellow book, I was allowed to own a gun.
Is that true?

even if that was the case, and he raced to her house with a gun to save his love, what was he planning to do with that gun when he got there? and didn't the Swiss guy have the right to defend himself.
I agree that the gun being thrown in the lake is strange. If I subdued the guy and tied him up, I certainly would not throw the gun in a lake. I would save it as evidence for the police.
Anyway who knows?

of course he could have thrown the gun there during the struggle to ensure that, should he be overpowered, the jealous lover would not be able to get at it.

No.

Some time ago foreigners could legally own firearms in Thailand, but the issuing of the license was up to the discretion of the local police chief. Very few were able to obtain them. Recently the laws have been amended so that foreigners cannot own firearms.

Got to say TDCSI is a bit rusty , in the past i've known crime to be solved on here before the ink was dry on the newsprint
