Just why exactly was a murder suspect out on bail anyway?
Not enough room at the nick for all of them so those with money walk!

Barbaric!
Sounds like the UK on an average Friday or Saturday night. People are getting shot and knifed almost daily in the UK. Better ban all activities and lock everyone up for their own safety.
I read last month that the UK had a 10th the gun crime of Las Vegas & was the 3rd lowest in Europe. Don't know about knife crime, but apart from domestic's seem's to me a black/asian thing.

wow, new to the foum and just read some of the garbage in here.
A blow to the head followed up by a group attack is not reasonable unless you are in imminent danger, insulting someone does not then mean that someone can smack you over the head, and then attack you again in a group.
Unless the security guard felt threatened that he was about to be attacked with the balloon sword. (joke)
Some of you in this thread need to get a grip of yourselves, the security here is 100% in the wrong and severly over reacted to a simple matter caused by their own inconsistencies. Some of you are blaming Behan for causing this,. however how far back do we want to take the chain, the security would be to blame for allowing him to carry balloons on the BTS on he previous journey that day setting a precedent that caused confusion when he tried to get on the BTS again. There was no signs here saying that balloons are not allowed on the BTS and I have seen balloons on the BTS many times so I wonder how many of you actually knew this rule.
One other thing, someones mentions you should follow the orders of people in uniform, well even for police officers it has to be lawful order, and as for security guards they are following a set of rules thats should not be subjective, and when they are allowed to be subjective we get situations like this.
Don't get confused between laws and rules also and who has the authority to uphold or enforce such things.
If the BTS wants to say they are protecting passengers from terrorist attacks I look forward to the setting up of a system where all bags are searched prior to entry to the BTS, horror of horrors someone might have a balloon in their rucksack with intent to make their children happy.
the character assasination from some posters in here aimed at behan just shows what a small minded, bitter, twisted group of people we have on here and in their desire to praise everything or everyone thai has has accussed him of many things, drunkeness, aggressivness, questioned his abilities as a parent etc etc etc, all because he tried to get a BTS,carrying the same items he has already had on the BTS that day only to be stopped by an agressive guard (how do I know he was agressive, well I would suggest hitting someone during a verbal dispute pretty much shows his demeanour).
I wonder when the next attack will be and for what? refusing to go in a tailors shop, not admitting to dropping litter in the street even though you have not, using the wrong door entering Paragon, being in possession of a foreign face on the MRT etc etc etc. I know, I am over eggagerating here, but make no mistake the attack on Behan was out of order as I am pretty sure the cctv will show IF it ever gets released.
There has to be limits, this guard/guards overstepped them.

Better get used to reading a lot of bitter & twisted crap if you're going to stay on here!
Appropriate reaction to someone who is aggressive is just that, once the guard's had reinforcements they should have overpowered & restrained him. To carry on with a beating would warrant charges in most western countries, however; this is not one of them & we have to learn quick not to expect tempered treatment.
Even handedness here start's with 10bt for "street food" rice if Thai, 20bt if farang. This attitude escalates all the way up the food chain & is backed up by the police; no win situation I'd say!!

saying his friends went to play the "free running" game on the building and found the body.
What does that mean?
Free running............................no ticket required. No brain either.
The guy's who found him were free-running!
