Charlie1 Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 It is the duty of the police to protect and serve and it is corrupt and asking for bribery when making this duty dependent on conditions!

Jack P Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 Thais can still legally own firearms and thereby defend themselves from deadly thugs. Don’t expect others to protect you if you are unwilling to do so for yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post BobbyL Posted July 8, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted July 8, 2019 Thailand is getting quite a strange place to live now. I wish the Western media published more articles on this stuff. A basic human right in any developed (using that word loosely) country should allow its citizens to have an opinion and the right to free speech. The police here have offered him protection, which he should receive anyway, ONLY if he shuts up. Incredible. A feel of North Korea is slowly creeping in here. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Lenny Jones Posted July 8, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted July 8, 2019 Well that's about as grubby as it gets Protection ONLY if he shuts up! So much for a dirty grubby bpolice force and who they are to protect. This needs getting out into the international media. Thailand is nothing but an embarrassment. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Eligius Posted July 8, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted July 8, 2019 (edited) 2 hours ago, FarFlungFalang said: Dude needs a country to stand beside him instead of leaving him out to dry. There are nearly 70 million Thais in Thailand. This chap, Ja New, goes out largely alone, it seems. Where is the mass (million-fold) support for this brave young man? And I don't mean on social media. The junta can just ignore that (words without backup action do not really frighten the junta). Thailand has reached a stage now (actually, it reached it some time ago - as many of us kept saying then, and are still saying now) where there is no 'legal' way for the Thais to regain their freedom. All avenues that they might 'legally' pursue ultimately lead to the tanks and guns. So: what to do? It is a tragedy that the poor Thais are placed, quite literally, in a life-or-death struggle for their liberty. I see nothing changing - not without great, GREAT popular, peaceful non-conformity. The only hope lies with the young. But they are the mobile-phone generation. Easy for them to post messages on Facebook or Twitter. They are more than willing to do that - and good on them for at least registering their disapprobation in this way. But will they do what some very, very, VERY brave Thais have done in the past - but do it now in their MILLIONS (mere thousands is no-way adequate)? I know the answer - and I think you do too. Certainly the Authorities do. And that is what they are counting on - knowing the way the Thais (in their MILLIONS) are likely to act (or rather: NOT act). It is easy to rule a nation when that nation stays forever on its knees. It is sad to witness - especially by those of us who hate injustice and bullying and who generally like the ordinary Thai people. However, there comes a time when a nation of people must take some momentous decisions. I think the Thais have basically taken theirs. It is their right and their decision (whether or not outsiders might agree with it). It is the same decision that the Thais have very visibly taken over the past five long years ...

Oziex1 Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 When the Thai's figure out how to liberate themselves from their oppression, please tell the rest of us how it is done. As the chains of totalitarianism tighten on the so called free West, disguised as national or in some places Homeland Security, and the punchline is we vote for it!

I think the above statement answers it fully of who is responsible, there are only two names there, Sirawath and Police, and im sure Sirawath didnt attack himself. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
