Letters

This section is for my letters to newspapers and magazines which *didn't* get printed. I've often checked a newspaper to see if my wonderful incisive, witty and elegant letter got printed, only to find a mishmash of routine, pedestrian cliches by a parade of oafs. Now you have a chance to see the kind of letters which the newspapers *do not dare to print*! I have decided to predate these letters to the date when I actually sent them, rather than the date when I post them on the site. I am too lazy to post all my letters at once, but eventually there will be letters to the following: Bangkok Post
The Nation (Thailand)
International Herald Tribune
and any others I can't think of right now.

BP 2003-12-24 "Thai pimp basher gets six years in jail"

Re: BP 2003-12-24 Home & International P4 Thu Dec 25 07:48:58 2003 To: postbag email at bangkokpost.net (Bangkok Post)

I was surprised that there was no comment on this one. According to the story at least, the guy he clobbered was demanding *protection money* from these girls. Thai girls have been *murdered* in Singapore and their assailants get less jail time than this Thai. What is really going on here?

I guess the plot of "Death Wish" (with Charles Bronson) wouldn't work very well in Singapore. Or "Taxi Driver".
