I wouldn't want to drink with him, but I can't say I'd want to try taking his photo either...
Having said that, I have no fear and managed to sneak these shots of the man. Clearly a crazed lunatic.

They can't even manage to hold a flag the right way round what hope of defending England, and what is that poking into the flag, has he confused Xenophobia with Xena Warrior Princess ?
Back to topic.
Some basic descriptions of the chap would maybe help one or two to steer clear, if that's allowed by the forum.
Age range, height / weight range, hair or not etc.
Jokes aside - I think this post is borderline illegal, verging on racism and completely ridiculous
OP makes a comment about a drunk in a bar, choses to highlight his supposed nationality in the subject line of the post, suggesting somewhat that that should reinforce the violent behavior.
You are now requesting photographs of the individual be posted in some sort of witch-hunt so that he can be avoided, castigated, hell even throw stones at. If you have a problem with some violent individual, report it to the police - don't use social media as a way of building mob mentality.
There are drunks in every bar, some more mental than others. There are also mentally impacted persons in every city - but especially expats in Thailand it would seem.
For this website to condone singleing out individuals and potentially support posting photos of them is completely wrong - and worth official investigation. Moreover, using it as an opportunity to play Scottish stereotypes says a lot about you.

Be assured, such a post would be against forum rules, and would be deleted immediately.
Scotian,
I think you're post is a bit O.T.T.
U.S. was only using the racial point as a better description and meant no stereotyping. It has already been mentioned that police have intervened in the past yet he is still frequenting drinking establishments. I for one would certainly appreciate a better description and hence the sharing of this thread. If I know what this guy looks like then Mrs. GN and I will be giving him a wide berth...
The guy sounds schizophrenic and perhaps it's only a matter of time before the knife gets some action.
Incidentally, the only time I've ever had trouble in Hua Hin was when an alcoholic Scot struck me in the face in a bar down Bintabaht.
GN.
FFS Scotian I wouldn't want to be in the same bar as some whiskey loaded nutter that likes to lunge into the air at an imaginary person.
And I doubt the police would do sod all anyway.
Kendo.

OMG! Obviously Scottish drunk pulls out a knife in front of board member, but hey, lets not worry about the knife and all that can entail, lets throw in a jibe of racism for using the word 'Scottish' and subsequent light hearted humour, probably because of the original sarcastic response by you to the OP.
Won't argue with you about the photo being a bit OTT but just relax a bit, no-one is slurring all Scots of being drunken, knife wielding thugs! One's enough.
Mods - feel free to remove the images I have posted in this thread if you think they might be likely to cause other readers to mis-identify the person mentioned in the OP and take vigilante action against a completely innocent party who just happens to look like one, or both, of the images posted.
To clarify, the images depict the following two subjects :
a) A character from the US animated sitcom The Simpsons
b) An alcoholic English homosexual in a kilt with a tin of paint
