July 5-11, 2002 mailbag Letters to the Editor
Unsigned letters regarding “Big Trouble from Little Thailand”I suggest you take out that damn ad, that is very stupid of you american people.
Please open your eyes to know other countries, don't covered yourself under coconut shell and think you are the biggest!! The 11th September will happen again.American the bad dog.
Hope your country encounter the same disaster like September, 11 last year. I'll very appreciate and enjoy with Americans death.
have a nice day PS.I felt sad for your ppl they died at WTC,now I think Bin Laden has done the right thing...
can't u leave our king alone? don't u have any stupid idea that we, thai people, really love and respect our king and his monasty. see, i understand that how ur independent country can move on without a king and that's why u become such idiot... i understand ur tradition, ur value or even ur way of thinking, i know that ur country and mine are different so try to understand our ways, or u can't blame me i warned u!! u r the bad guy for thai people i wish u and your family go to hell shit fuck you
You are very success to make all thais know your firm. Now, you make a lot of thais think that september, 11,it was resulted from yourself. When you don't try to understand the others and think only you are right. You can not live with other. Finally, you are very success to make thais hate american.
See ya
Altman said the City Paper would be willing to keep publishing the ad. "I really don't get a kick out of offending people," he said, "but this is the United States of America." AMERICANS' ARROGANCE LIKE THIS HAS BROUGHT MORE AND MORE HATRED TO THE U.S.A AND ITS PEOPLE. HOW SHAMEFUL THAT THEY HAVE NOT LEARNT ANY THING FROM THE 9/11 LESSON. SO, THERE MUST BE MORE LESSONS TO COME TILL THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA REALLY LEARN' FROM ALL THEIR MISTAKES.
AND I WISH BIN LADEN BOMB Saint Jack's restaurant.
do you know what are u doing? you , a new born country , have no civilization , no history!!!!!! everything you have is a freak
I wish Siant jack's resteraunt be destroyed by terrorism.
I think it's kind of hard for American people to understand what Thai people feel about that ads (you know which one I mean). You never have a king (or a king like Thai king), so you would never know or understand the (special) relationship between the real king and his people. Sometimes (or I should say often), in Thai people's mind, this Thai king is even more than their fathers or mathers, more than any religious leaders. When someone is doing something like this ads, it might feel like some islamic people did the same with Jesus portrait (replaced the king by the Jesus). If you can still laugh, I wouldn't have anything to say more. I don't like angry reactions from some Thai people to you or the owner of the bar (if it's true as stated in the article or news) either. I think we are all well-educated. We shouldn't get emotion involved in the situation like this. We have different lifestyles and ways of thinking. Something which don't seem offensive for you might be really offensive for us. I think we (people involved) should talk peacefully (or even professionally) as well-educated people should do - no threat and no stubbornness, even though this is hard for two groups of people with different points of view. For you, and Ms.Levin, "I don't understand" seems to be a simple sentence for an excuse, but it shows ignorance. Why don't try harder to think as the other side? If you (and Ms.Levin) stand for this ads, you don't win. Or if you stop the ads, as well, you won't lose. Neither one is higher or more powerful than the other. Why don't find the compromise? I don't think this ads will improve Ms.Levin's business that much, on the other hand, might be worsen it. Why let the small matter (for you guys) become unnecessarily big? I think you guys have started to understand those Thai people (since they said), but it's only your "thought" that you still hold it tight, so you haven't complied with those requests. This thing happens similarly to Thai people. I think they (at least I) understand you, but it's more serious for Thai people, so they can't let it go on (consider the case that I exampled above - islam and Jesus picture for very strict christians). Let me suggest somethings. You can just stop run this ads without saying anything even talking to those Thai people (this is also to Ms.Levin). Apology, even though it's difficult if you don't have an idea that you were wrong, it helps the situation better. American people have good habit for saying "I'm sorry" already; this is just another one of that sentence. As for Thai people, although I'm not the important man of the country, I would willingly like to say "I am sorry" if some Thai people have threatened or been rude to you (I mean anyone). Also, I would say "Thank you very much" if you consider this email with judgement and stop this trouble. Regards.
We were brought up in different culture. You might make joke out of your president, your politician, or even your sacred Jesus. But for us, our king is beloved with all our heart. As the one who went to school in the US, I know that American people do not know much about the world outside. I think most of your children are so "narrow" and lack of understanding of other cultures. All they, and you, know is ,what you call, American culture.
I see your picture with your fuking mind with your mother. Why did your mother like to sleep with a dog...guy? I like your daughter too....don't press your nude body's daughter on this page because it will get us boring :) Your child will go to bed with your dream.... a junk editor. Call me at fukeyourmother@papernet.pee and see your mother tonight Ha Ha Ha.....a bitch.
