That is good to hear! I can't imagine showing up to the child care center and your child is dead.
If this guy didn't shoot himself, would he even be penalized harsh because of this? I've heard of a lot of criminals getting off lightly with many things there or turning a blind eye.

Wow, that is a bit shocking to me! Sad! How big is Thailand in size compared to the US..that's saying a lot.

Thankfully they are all ok but deeply disturbed by what just happened. Many people in her village knew many of the victims. My daughter is totally distraught as this area holds a special happy place in her heart filled with many wonderful memories of the farms, family and traditions. I myself having visited this area for many weddings, funerals and family gatherings and have nothing but my deepest sorrow for these people, who, are some of the kindest most down to earth people you will meet in Thailand. Utterly devastated.

Aw, sorry to hear that. Must be devastating to the community and all involved.

You and Chitty are a match made in heaven.

A nice gesture, to be sure. The thing is that there are many victims in a case like this and some effects come much later. In the West, the majority of couples who lose a young child ultimately divorce. Extended families and people living nearby can all suffer problems in the future. In the years ahead there will probably be suicides that we never hear about. Heaven forbid that this case inspires any copycats.
There is a real need to improve the services available to address mental health issues in Thailand. It needs a bit more than a gesture.

28 victims transferred to Udon Hospital last night, 8 in ICU. Udon Hospital is asking for blood (all types). 38 dead.

Weeping, grief-stricken families gathered Friday outside a Thai nursery where an ex-policeman murdered nearly two dozen children in one of the kingdom's worst mass killings.

Thai King Maha Vajiralongkorn and Prime Minister Prayut Chan-O-Cha will later visit survivors of the attack that left at least 37 people dead, including the attacker's wife and child.

Families mourn Thai nursery dead ahead of king's visit

This shit makes me mad. They're supposed to be responding, not taking fucking pictures. C U N T S!

Photos taken by first responders showed the school's floor littered with the tiny bodies of children still on their blankets, where they had been taking an afternoon nap. The images showed slashes to their faces and gunshots to their heads and pools of blood.

So of course they have to red carpet the crime scene.



There was a helicopter passed overhead here about 0830 this morning, heading in that general direction. An unusual occurrence so maybe an advance party.

This made CNN. The details are just awful.

I don't think the crime scene is going to tell them much that they don't already know tbh.

The "manhunt" is long over.

Would be a nice start, but until then the government should consider this in the meantime.

Just leaves me with the impression its all being used to boost flagging popularity.

^If he just sat behind a desk, it would look bad.

Hell, the three finger groups were blaming Prayut for it yesterday (social media) just after the massacre hit the Thai news.

Perish the thought.

I wasn't thinking about forensics. It just seems a bit tasteless. Maybe it's just me.
It's 30km down the road from here. I'm not joining the ghoulish throng.

People donating blood last night at Udon Hospital for the injured. It was very crowded.

Much better than the red carpet being prepared across the muddy grass by white uniformed minions.

But he didn’t “slip through the system”, did he.

The fucking piece of degenerate shit was tolerated by two police districts for most of his worthless career and his delinquency was a matter of public knowledge. That the repellent cvunt was permitted to wander at will about the community armed with his handgun is yet again more evidence of the hapless carelessness and dereliction of duty by the authorities and incompetent police.

Thai police are universally feared, not by criminals, but by the community they are meant to serve not least because they answer to no one except themselves.

Have folk truly forgotten how Thaksin’s police killed over 2500 in their bogus war on drugs?

Ah yes. Really no need for the VIP treatment, but I guess all the provinces have protocols to follow.

The red carpet is of course nauseating but then, that’s Thai society.

2 things

King and Queen will meet with the parents of the dead and injured at 7:30

No drugs were found in the body of the murderer
