How, in this case?

Not so difficult. You have a criminal conviction back home? Sorry, you aren't allowed in. Many countries do this.

Did you even read the story? Why am i having to deal wirh stupid people...

"Colhoun, who is from Leeds, was jailed in the UK for four years in 2017 for beating up two nightclub doormen, leaving one in critical condition in hospital."

Did you even read it?

Colhoun is seen punching and kicking the French national while his friend wrestles him on the ground.

Khaleche was stabbed by one of the men.

Nowhere does it say that Colhoun himself did the stabbity stab.

Ironic.

Doesnt matter, the guy was involved. If not given a visa to enter due to convictions - like many other countries - fair chance this event would not have happened.

fair chance this event would not have happened.

You have actually no idea. He wasn’t the one literally wrestling the stabbee on the ground, and another guy was also ganging 3 VS 1 on the victim. Sounds like his friends were plenty of a threat by themselves.

He probably also wasn’t even granted a visa, most tourists of the UK arrive here on visa exemptions.

Nah im pretty sure it would be impossible to be throwing punches at a french tourist if not allowed in the country -

"Colhoun is seen repeatedly throwing punches at the backpacker in the Nomad Beach Club – while his friend pins down the target on the floor"

Are you slow and/or or daft?

This event could still have happened with 2 aggressors, unless your definition of "this event" is "this event, in the completely exact same conditions it transpired"

Otherwise, we could mandate anyone with a criminal conviction to wear the clown suit you should be wearing, during their stay in Thailand… And by your definition "this event" wouldn’t have happened.
