Spare a thought from his family who possibly could reading this forum right now.

I'm pretty sure that Sir. stains means that they might be reading and understanding more than anything else in regards to the victim's skin tone.epidemiks wrote:That makes it all the more important to show him and his family some respect?
I mean a Nigerian family would be too busy with their chicken restaurant fronts for drug smuggling, the Vietnamese are too busy plotting to overthrow the government from their boats, the Philippinos are too busy complimenting some hat somewhere with cards hidden up their sleeves and the Chinese are too busy throwing bracelets at barang foreheads.
Oh wait, white family? It's 10 AM, they're probably still at Golden Soriya Mall drinking beer and slapping fish game playing slappers. Unless they are French. Maybe they are French and they don't speak English. All they do is eat toads anyway, they can't have any feelings. Or they're running around some market somewhere with T-shirts on their heads stealing cheap cigarettes. I think we'll be OK, white people don't have time for reading forums. Especially the silent majority.
It's really tragic that some poor lost souls would troll a thread like this. I mean the victim is white after all.
Maybe it was that barang a-jai. The arms make it seem as if he was carrying something heavy. Anyone got some recent photos of him by the way? Maybe the barang a-jai asked Scammer Steve for his work permit and Steve wasn't having any of it throwing the victim's plastic loot into the river.
By the way where is Jewsbury? Does anyone have a recent photograph of his breakfast?

I don't know why stains made that precision, so he'll speak for himself.
As I read it, I considered it a jab to poke the 440 posters who are more sensitive and sensible when it comes to "one of their own."

My first response to seeing those photos was 'creepy' and RiP.
To those who are close to the deceased and any one else who was offended I unreservedly apologize. I know it's too late and the damage is done, my only reasoning for my black humor is to lighten the effect those grizzly pictures have on me, no excuse though, I can't get used to them being made public and my own fault for looking at them.
Again my apologies.

Never mind.
I think stains was being ironic. He is usually the first to jump gleefully onto news of people ending up dead here. I suspect that's because it's the only time he sees westerners in Cambodia in more dire straits than himself.
RIP to the guy in question, and condolences to his family.

Correct Scobie- well read...
You are just sore at me because you haven't got your GSM bar yet- isn't far from that hairdressers where they had the murder-suicide last week as well...
They haven't got to the bottom of the William Glenn murder, has she been questioned yet???

The deceased is a John Doe. Unless the Khmer cops have actually been doing police work in the last 24 hours, his family wouldn't know that he is dead.
But maybe he has a wife in Thailand who thought, "Oh my husband isn't answering his phone. I'll just google dead foreigner found floating in Phnom Penh lake and see if I get any results."

i read the first couple of posts yesterday, now log on to see there are over 1500 views of this thread. I click on the second page to see what's being said, and all i see is a load of joking posts. This site never grows up does it? Posters don't self check and remember this isn't all about displaying their wit. Posters forgetting that family who are in pain see these posts.

agh, back to agreeing with stains, as this is why I ended up overlooking that part of his post. I viewed it as Joon did

well, this is irrelevant isn't it? at some point, we hope he will no longer be a John Doe. The comments will still be here to be read.prahocalypse now wrote:The deceased is a John Doe.
