Angry mob beat down a thief to death

Cambodia news in English! Here you'll find all the breaking news from Cambodia translated into English for our international readership and expat community to read and comment on. The majority of our news stories are gathered from the local Khmer newspapers, but we also bring you newsworthy media from Cambodia before you read them anywhere else. Because of the huge population of the capital city, most articles are from Phnom Penh, but Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and Kampot often make the headlines as well. We report on all arrests and deaths of foreigners in Cambodia, and the details often come from the Cambodian police or local Khmer journalists. As an ASEAN news outlet, we also publish regional news and events from our neighboring countries. We also share local Khmer news stories that you won't find in English anywhere else. If you're looking for a certain article, you may use our site's search feature to find it quickly.

While "cruel" in a way, I do agree with you. The criminals are the ones perpetrating the act which could put you or your loved ones in danger. While many might not agree, I believe at that point any form of retaliation to preserve oneself is justified. I don't say kill them, but If they die from you attacking them for invading your space and potential safety, then so be it.

I have said it many times before: shit like that will happen as long as the judicial system is weak (read: non-existent) and the coppers are despised. Downside: it can happen to the wrong person. When I was a kid in Kenya all you had to do to get rid of someone was point at them in a busy area and shout "Mwizi" (thief). End of.

There's no judicial system when you're facing a man holding your wallet and a knife. Not even in so called civilized countries can the bureaucrats pull the screwdriver out of your baby daughter. There is only one way.

Poor petty criminals, let's pour some sugar on them and have a cuddle. Until your wife screams for help and the perp stabs her and the baby to death with a rusty screwdriver over a scooter while you're out taking selfies in Pontoon.

If you or your loved ones are being robbed, petty crime or not, then you or your loved ones are in danger. It's a good time to start defending yourself. Don't wait for them to stab you.
Let me share you story bro. I live in a 60-70 bucks a month rent -- yes I will defend my wife and 2 years old daughter to death. I left my Vietnamese plastic made chairs and Thailand's made foldable table outside every day. Me? If I caught the thieves he probably get his ass kicked, but there will be no way me allowing my neighbors beating the thieving cunts to death.

Which reminds me of something, I am not showing off or anything, but I am a good cunt. I won about $550 from the Barracat machine at Naga casino -- that was my ticket home to Siem Reap (to sort out the rents and many shits)....yeah dont preach me about gambling. The moment I got the ticket out and pat myself with a shitty Phnom Penh draft beer for celebration. The VN dude in his 60s got my ticket and got caught exiting the casino. I pleaded to the security guards not to kick his ass behind the CCTV in the interrogation room. I ended up with $220 short, just because I am a nice cunt.

wouldnt have any problem giving a thieving cunt a good kicking, only to within an inch of their life though, a thief doesnt desereved to be killed over a stupid deck chair,
on the other hand if someone comes at me with a knife (or any kind of weapon), my kill or be killed instinct will be in control then... that wont be pretty
