Caption -- Two American men who were reportedly honeymooning in Thailand were detained after they shared photos of their exposed butts taken at two famous Bangkok temples.
The pair, Joseph and Travis DaSilva of San Diego, both 38, were arrested at Don Mueang International Airport in Bangkok on Tuesday, just days after they uploaded photos of their bared backsides to Instagram, the Bangkok Post reported; the photos were taken at Wat Arun (The Temple of Dawn) and Wat Pho temples.
"They were detained as they were about to leave Thailand," said Col. Cherngron Rimpadee, an immigration police spokesman. The colonel said the couple were on a "watch list" after their social media posts caught authorities' attention.
"Once they are through with the charges, the Thai immigration police will revoke their visas and push for deportation," he said, according to the BBC. "They will also be blacklisted from coming back to Thailand."
He added that the two men admitted to taking down their pants and posing for photos at the temples.
The DaSilvas were charged with getting naked in public and fined $150 apiece. However, some Thai officials have told the media that there could be more serious charges. Officials are now seeking court approval to prosecute them on the Computer Crime Act for uploading pornographic pictures, Col. Jarupat Thongkomol said from the police station near the temple, Agence France-Press reported. They could face jail time.

“They should give them 12 months in the joint for being disrespectful homos.”
With a bunch of moslem Thai kickboxers.
They are going to regret that little stunt.
Didn’t a country cane a guy for breaking windows of cars once? Thailand teach them a lesson.
Yep.
He must of had some story to tell, Right there in front of the Washington Post !
Disrespect seems inherent to the gay lifestyle. Both Wat Pho and Wat Arun are greatly respected and important to Thai Buddhists. Wat Pho has a Thai massage school and Arun is a classic spot on the River. What these jerks are really doing is disrespecting the Thai people.
Did they ask Trump to save them yet ? Want to bet they will ,Doh
Ugly Americans.
Dignity....
They should face appropriate punishment.
“They could face jail time.”
PLEASE throw their sorry @$$ES in jail!
Even a miss could Bangkok.
A steady diet of Thai Bird's Eye Chilis would curtail their sex life a bit.
Them boys didn’t get them round mouths from eatin’ no square meals...
I say cane ‘em.
And put it on pay for view to defray the expenses of prison.
Now why would two homos go to Thailand? Hmmmmmm
