It not the size of the penis but the size of the wad of baht in the hand that counts around here!

We could not take and hold it. Too big for anything other than a professional military.

If you get hit in the head with a rubber bullet form a conventional rifle it can kill you, esp at close range. I think the idea is to be less lethal than a real round, which will sure enough kill you. But google "rubber bullet" and hit the "images" button. Plenty of pics of the damage they can do. (Personally, I would be doing other things to break up the protest if I were in command. None of which call for shooting at anyone.)

We have stuff like that. It is a sticky shit that is not soluble in water. Makes a hell of a mess and is just hard as crap to get off. And it glows!!!

Yes, there are rubber bullets for just about any fire arm these days. They are simply regular rounds with a rubber projectile instead of a metal one. (They do gunk up the barrel a bit though.) At close range they will really hurt you, and just like a bb gun, a hit in a soft part like the eye, ear, mouth, ect., will draw blood. I cant get a good enough look at the other weapons from that link to tell what they are, but could be some sort of LTL gun.

I cant speak for the rest of the post but I watched the one from France today. On a list of firearms experts on Thai360 I would have to be near the top, and I can tell you there is no way to tell if the troops in that video are shooting metal or rubber bullets. In fact there is next to no way to know with out taking the weapon and unloading it and looking.

Funny you mention that....

Who?

So the fact that he removed the nuke threat to just about everyone else doesn't count, huh?

Try Java Joe's on Main St. 28645. (Which is another way of saying I have yet to find good coffee in BKK!!!!) They are building an "Au Bon Pain" on Suk Soi 31 but you got some waiting to do for it to open. The only other one I know of is on 24, about 1000m (Yes, 1000!) from Suk on the right.

April 10th 2010 First time I have ever seen that.

He also said he would learn to speak English.

You got a sex "sort of" change?

What produced America, Canada, Australia, Singapore, (lesser) Taiwan? Oh thats right, Colonialism. And Hegemony is what is currently in practice in LOS. And most of the world to include China and Japan, Mexico, all of Africa, ect.

You must be looking forward to China ruling you.

Where the Nude photos?

What an idiot. True Story: A person I personally know was sent to a foreign country and gave the ruling big shot an ultimatum. Resign and we would send him into exile or a new president would preside at his execution... if he made it that long.

Well thats the thing. Doing Cobra Gold the number of high ranked enlisted men was tiny compared to the US, GB, ect. In other words, I did not see very many career soldiers in the Thai army. But they sure had a almost infinite number of young officers!

I'm not debating that at all. I am trying to understand why it seems from the OP and others that this conscription seems universally feared. Though it does raise the question, "Do any Thais volunteer for enlistment?"

What an idiot. What did she think would happen?

What is the chance that the average conscript will actually face any combat? For new US Marines the chance they will deploy to Afgan, ect is close to 100%.

How does that mean that there are not fewer of them in Cowboy?

The only go-go I know of that plays exclusively classic rock is in Soi Cowboy.

How long is there enlistment for?
