Episode notes
In October of last year, a recently retired police officer armed with a sugarcane machete in a six hour P365 stormed into a nursery school and killed 23 children and two teachers. He obtained through something what Thailand calls the welfare gun program which allows former police officers and military to buy at a very steep discount these pistols. All gun shops in Thailand can only sell roughly 15,000 pistols a year. That six hour contract, just the first of two flooded the country with 150,000, 10 times that amount.
