Sagen’s einmal. Was wollen Sie denn eigentlich Sie dumme, irrationale, geschmacklose Schleimsau ?

Translation for the non-Germans:
"Say. What do you want, you stupid, irrational, vulgar and slimy pig"

Well, I think this thread is going way into the wrong direction. It's a very sad topic, blablabla has a concern to share and you're actually not very helpful with that and derailing it. I'm not going further into your comment, but you're welcome to have a beer with me someday. So we can discuss this f2f. Nice and cozy.

Wrong translation.

Thx for the translation. I must admit, it was more cordial than I would have imagined.

Ok, I know everyone wants to have the last word, but insults have been thrown in all directions.

Any FURTHER nasty insults by anyone will be modded down or deleted.

Feel free to interact with one another, but no more pointless insults. Again, further ones will be taken care of, because they add nothing to this thread. (I'd move the current ones, but I'm on my damn phone at the moment).

Thx all.

The site owner has spoken. The thread OP deemed newsworthy. The information will remain as posted. [Mod edit]

Please remember this is a death thread, everyone.

Yes, I have edited and deleted some posts that don't belong on here.

Thx.

to the dog

Yeah. You just forgot one vital thing (Mackevillie, I've read his post before you edited it), you are not in the position to make decisions here [Mod edit].

Condolences to the friends/family - tragic circumstances. I understand your pain and that you feel the need to act in some way as part of your grief.

Just to be on the record, I support admin's stance on this (it's been the same since the conception of CEO) and think Gonk had explained himself well and with respect.

Good call.

I am a close friend of David Billow’s and I am writing to request that you please remove the photo of David's deceased body lying in the hospital bed and the picture of his Hong Kong Identity card.

The passing of a son, brother, and a friend is already difficult enough without having it so flagrantly and disrespectfully publicized online. As a young website, I believe you are still able to make a choice in regards to how you want your site to be viewed. I realize that there are other sites that publish this type of information, but is this really how you want to be known? Compared to other websites, I would have expected Cambodia Expat to be a resource for expatriates, not a way to garner attention and distribute information regarding non-residential expatriates who are visiting Cambodia.

I am guessing that, like David's family and friends, the rest of the public would be very offended by an article like this. I understand that this information is open to the public and therefore I am only asking you to remove the picture of his deceased body and ID card. Although I would like you to remove the whole article, I realize that this is most likely not going to happen since there is no legal basis to this request.

However, I understand that everything on this website is hosted and managed in the USA. Hence, I have hired a lawyer who believes we have a strong argument that the two published pictures greatly offend the public and that in this case, the American government regulatory body can and will step in. If this is what is required, then I have no problem investing my resources to ensure that these pictures, and even this article, are removed. Please provide David's friends and family with some privacy and respect through this difficult time by removing the picture of his body and of his ID card (which, as you are probably aware, is classified information). Thank you.

Hooray!! More threats of legal action.
