Nine people were gunned down after a 14-year-old took his grandfather’s gun and opened fire at a school just outside Bangkok. Within days, Thailand saw two more different but deadly shootings.
The tragedies have reignited the gun control debate in a country where people are estimated to collectively own more than 10 million firearms. In response, the government is proposing tighter regulation, but critics are questioning whether the approach even gets to the heart of the problem.
Join us this week on #TheSignal as we examine Thailand’s relationship with guns and whether the latest push for stricter controls can prevent another deadly shooting.
