XBroker 41 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 The version of events I've heard was that the German (unarmed) was standing outside the front door of Mickey D's when three motorcycles with six Filipinos pulled up outside. At least three men with guns dismounted and at least one of them shot the German right there. The German then fled inside to a storage room, where he was chased down by one of the shooters and finished off with several close range shots. I know one thing for sure, if I'm unarmed and attacked by armed hoodlums shooting at me, I'm gonna make like horses**t and hit the trail. However, I would've run away from the building rather than into it. Still might not survive, but definitely have a better chance on the street than cornered in a storeroom. If you want to get "confrontational" with armed assailants shooting at you, go for it. Hindsight is perfect. Link to post Share on other sites
XBroker 41 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Wow. Don't go out at night? Don't wear any jewelry? Don't go to bars? I'm not sure some of you are actually living here. No sure I'd call that living. I'd at least like to have the option. Thailand seems better, foodwise, transportation & safety. Like Fillipino women more; but I'd get over that or bring one over.

XBroker 41 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 If it's worth jumping through all the hoops, it is. If it's not it's not. Why add in layers to get more downside? Guess I need to look at other threads to see the upside in the Phils. Seems like I'd be giving up a lot for a lot of mess. Link to post Share on other sites
+to_dave007 6,132 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 I would think 4:20 a.m. would not be so safe at many places around the world... I've been to that Macdo once... during the day time... not a good area, I don't think... Couldn't agree more.. But took a lot of flak when I said same thing in that other thread.
