KHON KAEN — A pro-democracy activist was detained briefly at a military court Friday, one day before he plans to lead a protest demanding that the military abolish the ruling junta.

 

Rangsiman Rome was taken into custody Friday over two-year-old charges he violated the junta’s ban on political assembly while in the northeastern province. He was held five hours before being freed at 3pm on a 10,000 baht bond from the 23rd Military Circle Headquarters.

The junta is less afraid of sticks and stones than words.   Words seem to be the most terrifying thing to this sham of a government, as words will be its downfall.  They are incapable of defending themselves without ruthless savagery.

Sounds like an educational conversation was held. Hope he has the stones to continue and that leads to even more scrutiny of the leaderships actions that suppress the freedoms of the Thai people so they are full educated when they (hopefully) get to vote.
