Re: Border Guard Explodes Himself with Fishing Bomb
Englsih police dont need to. they get free macdonalds. Its no accident all the ambulances and police cars wait at service stations with burgers....They got in trouble for it a few years back for not delaring the perk for tax.
I went out with a copper onece. free entry to night clubs, one or 2 complimentary drinks from the bouncers. he got really upset when we went to a lap dancing club and they would not accept his warrant card as a :get in free" pass. Ahh the joys of life ina totally uncorrupt western nation....

There is a slight difference between a free Big Mac and making bombs, well in my world there is, maybe I haven’t been here long enough yet !!!pczz wrote: ↑Sun Dec 22, 2019 10:05 amEnglsih police dont need to. they get free macdonalds.

Re: Border Guard Explodes Himself with Fishing Bomb
Instant karma. Why waste time catching them the old fashioned way when you can just toss in a stick and pick up the spoils?. Lazy bastard. Lesson learned? Nah

Hopefully somebody will give the guy a fishing rod to use in the future
Re: Border Guard Explodes Himself with Fishing Bomb
Point is Cambodian Police get paid a pittance and have to go fishing to eat or supplement their income, which is why they make the bombs, easy way to catch lot of fish to sell. If someone gave them free big macs and beer and a big salary for operating speed traps like in UK they probabaly wouldn't botherDaveG wrote: ↑Sun Dec 22, 2019 10:12 amThere is a slight difference between a free Big Mac and making bombs, well in my world there is, maybe I haven’t been here long enough yet !!!pczz wrote: ↑Sun Dec 22, 2019 10:05 amEnglsih police dont need to. they get free macdonalds.

Re: Border Guard Explodes Himself with Fishing Bomb
I don't think that's the reason why they make fishing bombs. They could use a net or set up some kind of trap. Using bombs to fish is just pure laziness. If someone gave them free big macs, beer and a big salary, they would probably find a way to cut down more trees and sell the timber to either Thailand or Vietnam.pczz wrote: ↑Sun Dec 22, 2019 10:18 pmPoint is Cambodian Police get paid a pittance and have to go fishing to eat or supplement their income, which is why they make the bombs, easy way to catch lot of fish to sell.

Re: Border Guard Explodes Himself with Fishing Bomb
Probably a mix of the above ^^^ laziness, poor pay, and modern but well established cultural practice. (for cops and army)
personally, I'm just taking the rare bit of schadenfreude when i can get it.

This story again reminds us that you don't necessarily need a long neck to be a goose.
