Popular Post ocddave Posted July 8, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted July 8, 2019 Well this says all you need to know about the useless government employees here, police who give ultimatums for police protection. Not that I actually thought the RTP were anything more than useless, they are the biggest joke of a police force I have ever seen. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Hub of debate and discussion? Oh please, No. Hub of expediency, autocracy and dim political minds? Yes. For the BiB, this is not a new low. Policing, investigations and security just are not their forte. He is better off hiring somebody himself, or have a chat with the gun shop owners in Ol' Siam. Timid men prefer the calm of despotism to the tempestuous sea of liberty. Thomas Jefferson. Wonder if there is a Thai translation. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MRToMRT Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 How can the Police offer him protection if he refuses to put himself in potentially dangerous situations? How can their protection be seen/interpreted as being aligned with his causes? What guarantees would they have that he would not use the police protection to further his own aims. Yes he has the right to freedom of speech and freedom of political will but to offer protection to someone without them being willing to make common sense decisions on their own safety would be madness. Why would a police force (in any country) put its officer at potential risk if the protected party does not agree to reduce his/her risk profile? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thailand is not a democrstic state. From my perspective "democracy" is an imaginary ideal. Can anybody give us an example of a true democracy in action? Selfishness (greed and lust for money and power) is the prime motivation of politicians all over the world. Selflessness is the realm of those people who are apolitical. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the police did their job in the first place this would not have happened, to the police and the insipid person in charge time to forget about the bribes and brown envelopes and get on with what you were paid to do, ENFORCE THE LAW or is that too hard I believe the police write their own rights. And I was aware of them getting protection money before but have never heard of them admitting to the "protection racket" before. This would be the first case that I have seen reported in the news. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firstly I think you might have meant to say "if he refuses to NOT put himself in potentially dangerous situations"? He is putting himself in danger by speaking his mind,just as you are doing now.By speaking your mind you are putting yourself at risk.Why would anybody listen to somebody that does that? "What guarantees would they have that he would not use the police protection to further his own aims".Are you for real?Trolling maybe?How the "" could he possibly achieve that?Can you please go back and read carefully just what you wrote and make the necessary amendments. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMHO this is one reason why "they" don't want us here anymore. We have subversive and divisive ideas about things like personal freedoms.

One one hand you have someone who cares about something and is educated, while on the other hand you have uneducated thugs, ah....finding the right balance is somewhat trying, perhaps he should seriously think about it, i.e. ask himself if it's all worth it, after all, if he is taken out, no one will miss a heart beat as much as he knows his course is for the good, there are darker forces lurking, not a way I would want to be living, i.e. looking over my shoulder while the cops don't give a toss and are probably in on keeping people such as him quiet for the bigger boys up the chain. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
