Gun rage also a Thai story
this past week we read about the slaughter in an american school by a crazed, gun-wielding student. I happenned to find a bangkok post report on an inter-school brewl where police found lots of weapons. what is the basic difference between the ease with which thai technical school student obtain firearms and those student in the US?
I'm still pondering the question.A thai teacher took me to task recently,telling me that Western students are violent. I showed him some old Bangkok Post articles that I keep handy for such occasions and he said gang fights betwbeen rival school in Thailand were exaggerated and it couldn't happen here.
He dose not read the Bangkok Post Do the thai newspapers carry the same news items, or is the man just myopic,seeing and hearing what he wants to see and believe? After all,his students could do no wrong
