Poor Thailand having to deal with the American militaries penchant for sexual assault.

Edit: it's military's not militaries.

Not just Thailand. Okinawa has been dealing with it for decades.

I mean, with Okinawa it's worse in my mind because it's a base and we're supposed to be their allies. The people deployed there should treat the people like neighbors but instead you've got a long history of Marines raping girls/women.

Thats to your allies. Imagine what you do to hostile nations.

Then you guys wonder why everyone hates the US military.
