A police spokesperson was quoted as saying by the BBC that the groom “was quite intoxicated at the time”.

They seem to think that is a fair explanation.

You know what they say, guns and alcohol go together like peas and carrots. That is what they say, isn't it? Isn't it?

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 44 points 1 year ago (2 children)

It's weird, I've been really drunk and I've murdered maybe two people. Tops.

[–] ericisshort@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Next time, try more alcohol or more guns.

[–] jwt@programming.dev 1 points 1 year ago

Or put wodka in a supersoaker, a twofer.

[–] NoIWontPickaName@kbin.social 7 points 1 year ago

I thought we weren’t supposed to talk about that.

It was your rule!

I don't think so...but they do say Asians can't process alcohol very well.

it wasn't some drunken rampage.. they were together for three years, and on the day of the wedding while they're just sitting around at somebody's house, he snaps and shoots her, her mother, and her sister.. then kills himself.. he was a 29 year old ex-military athlete missing a leg, she was 44..

Has to be said: The only way to stop a bad groom with a gun is a good groom with a gun.

Good title for a trashy murder novel:

Cold Feet & Hot Lead

[–] tsonfeir@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

That’s brilliant actually. Except it would be the woman who shot the husband, and she’d fall in love with the investigator and make passionate love on the beach.

[–] JJROKCZ@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Apparently he was missing a leg so just cold foot

[–] magnetosphere@kbin.social 15 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Cultural differences always interest me. According to American sitcoms, just killing the mother in law would be sufficient.

[–] theodewere@kbin.social 5 points 1 year ago

it's really a failure on the part of the Best Man.. he's specifically supposed to restrain you from killing your mother in law on your wedding day..

[–] jafffacakelemmy@kbin.social 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Gosh, she really dodged a bullet there. Oh, wait; maybe she didn't........

It's like the unwanted worthless waste runoff from reddit wound up here

[–] Damdy@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

What an introduction.

Should we write our own vows?

Yeah, is it okay if mine is a performance piece? It may be a bit avant garde though. I think your sister would get it.

[–] TransplantedSconie@lemm.ee 6 points 1 year ago

I would say this is a bit extreme for a divorce, but I don't know Thailands customs.

[–] TokenBoomer@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Sometimes you gotta play the long game.

This incident comes just days after Thai interior minister Anutin Charnvirakul signed an order to suspend the issuance of gun licences for a year.

… thank you for your sacrifice?
