You need to eradicate drugs and guns to prevent such incidents. But it not going to happen. We have to live in constant fear that this may happen again. We just dont know where and when.
work is for people who cant find truffles

I've never seen a situation where the families of the deceased were made to hold up signs of how much money the authorities were going to pay them for a media photo opportunity when the PM visited. I don't know any decent society where this would be regarded as appropriate.
Yes sir, I can boogie, I can boogie, boogie, boogie all night long.

interesting about CNN's coverage and the outcome
CNN’s response to the row over their reporting of the nursery killings in Thailand. Saying they didn’t know they were breaking any rules is missing the point. There were no rules at what was a fluid and traumatic crime scene. This is about ethical judgement, not rules

It isn’t always clear what is legal or not. Sometimes there is explaining or apologizing to do afterwards. Often we face ethical dilemmas. But that nursery posed no dilemma at all. It was obviously wrong to enter it, knowing it hadn’t been cleaned after the bodies were taken out.
https://www.thaipbsworld.com/thai-immig ... reporters/Thai immigration officials have withdrawn the visas of two CNN reporters who entered the crime scene of Thursday’s mass killings at the child care centre in Nong Bua Lam Phu province, Pol Gen Surachate Hakparn, deputy national police chief said today (Sunday).
He said that the two reporters, 47-year-old Anna Coren, an Australian, and 34-year-old Daniel Hodge, a Briton, were escorted from their hotel in Udon Thani by police and taken to Na Klang police station in Nong Bua Lam Phu province for questioning.
He said that police want to know from them which Thai officials had allowed them into the crime scene, as they had claimed, adding, that only the police have the authority to grant such permission.
The deputy national police chief also said that the two reporters may face charges of intrusion into a crime scene and interfering with evidence, if it can be proved that they crossedthe crime scene cordon without permission.

Absolutely horrific. One consolation is that very small kids probably wouldn't have known anything about it. It's things like this that really show us what degrees of evil human beings are capable of.
Be your own toy.

the one who survived:
i wonder when she grows older her parents will ever tell her how lucky she was this terrible day

https://thethaiger.com/hot-news/crime/m ... o-survivedThree-year-old Ammy slept through the whole thing. During the assault by the crazy killer who burst into her daycare centre, Ammy slumbered on, unnoticed by the man with the knives. Ammy has a habit of completely wrapping herself up in her blankets, and according to her mother, Panomphat Srithong, that might have saved her.
...
“She had no idea what was happening when she woke up,” said her 59-year-old grandfather Somsak Srithong. “She thought her friends were still asleep. A police officer covered her face and carried her away from all the blood.”

Thailand to tighten gun control rules after mass shooting
BANGKOK - Thailand will toughen its gun possession and drug laws, the interior ministry said on Wednesday, following the nursery massacre of 36 people – including 24 children – in the kingdom’s worst mass killing.
The country was left reeling after an ex-police officer forced his way into a small nursery in northeastern Na Klang last week, murdering 22 children at the nursery and their teacher before killing his wife, their child and himself.
The attack was carried out with a knife and a legally acquired gun, and while Thailand has a huge number of firearms in circulation – one estimate suggesting there are as many as one in seven firearms per person – mass shootings are rare.
Interior Minister Anupong Paojinda said on Wednesday the government would require tougher qualifications for new gun owners, as well as ramping up checks on existing firearm holders.
“Our new qualification will include mental health reports, we will be examining whether we need proof from doctors,” he told a press conference, without giving further details.
Gun applicants are already required to undergo a background check and must present a valid reason for ownership – such as hunting or self-defence.
“For example, if officials want to possess a gun, their supervisors have to ratify that that individual has no record of alcohol abuse or bad temper,” Mr Anupong said.
Village leaders or local officials will play a role in granting the tougher gun licences, he said.
Currently gun owners do not have to reapply for licences during the lifetime of a firearm. But now, approved gun holders will have to undergo a review every three to five years, Mr Anupong said.
“Because as time changes, people change,” he explained.
Parliament will also discuss an exemption penalty for illegal gun holders, Mr Anupong said, adding that individuals will be able to hand unauthorised firearms to the authorities without facing prosecution – though he did not indicate when they must do so by.
Those who still possess illegal weapons will face harsh penalties, he said.
Mr Anupong added that his ministry would work with police and the health department to increase drug screening and awareness, as well as encouraging addicts into rehabilitation.
“If everyone in town knows that drugs exist but local authorities don’t, they will be transferred,” he said.
The nursery attacker, 34-year-old sacked police sergeant Panya Kamrab, was dismissed from his post earlier this year on a drugs charge, with locals saying they suspected he was a methamphetamine addict.
However, preliminary tests found that he did not have any drugs in his system at the time of the assault. AFP
