Thai inherent xenophobia is known far and wide and they don't even try to hide it. Thais who killed a foreigner are usually seen as heroes and the police as well as judges see their acts as perfectly justified because "it was just a farang so who cares"!
i may understand that regarding UK citizens - although germans are not any better

but it basically comes down to respect - respecting Thai people and their culture. the way i have seen some people behaving there (and i am sure there's a lot worse), i am not surprised they are trying to get rid of them

if you're humble and treat everyone like a human being i am sure you have no problem.
