chinthee Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 Hey now! nobody is suggesting that we burn down teak forrests .... just some people are offering some help! I agree there is no need to get incendiary over all this. This represents a burning issue today in Thailand and people who comment on it shouldn't be flamed. It gets me red hot to think that we can't express our true feelings even though they may be cynical. If it's too hot to handle by some, they should read another thread. Meanwhile, I'll keep my iron in the fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jai Dee Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 Honestly people, even under the cover of humor, this is not funny, report sent.Kind regards Report acknowledged. However, as distasteful as you may find it, it is a valid news report. Provided the "dark humour" does not go too far, I see no reason why the thread cannot remain on the forum.

qualtrough Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 If they're going to burn themselves would they be so kind and give us a bit of notice so we can set up some grandstands, organise food and drink stalls and sell tickets. This is a business opportunity too good to miss. What about the marshmallows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carnival1200 Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 Aren't they Thais? Why are you so apathetic to your brethren? If someone is so unstable that they wish to burn themselfs for such a cause then so be it. People with such obsesive tendensies are a danger to sociatey.

carnival1200 Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 People out here in Asia seem to easily follow cult leaders. The question is if they are really willing to burn themselves would they be willing to use violence against others? In my view in Thailand people are are more likely to hurt themselves than others unlike in America where it would seem that people think of hurting others before hurting themselves. If that were to be true then it doesnt bode well for the thai image. Any psychiatrist would tell you that people who hurt themselfs are mentaly disturbed. Yeah, i know it isnt good to hurt otheres but it is normal in some situations - like a fight etc. But what is a normal situation to self harm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John K Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 Well now if we can only get the extremists in the south to joint in and light themselves on fire too. Isn’t it amazing how nature will always come to the rescue to solve problems when we humans can’t seem to do it ourselves. Thanks Darwin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chinthee Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 All joking aside, (well, some of it anyway...) anybody who would take their own life because their small village in the middle of SE Thailand nowhere got a new temple, or 30 baht doctor scheme, or whatever, is nonsense. Whether or not these "village people" care about the monumental scale of self-dealing and corruption in Bangkok under the Toxin regime, irrespective of whether or not their small mu baan benefited, is irrelevant. The bottom line is...: I don't think anybody is going to "come on baby light my fire" over Toxin. This is my prediction. Anybody differ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is my prediction. Anybody differ? No. I agree. Whilst it might be funny to theorise about a pack of dickheads self immolating, I hope it doesn't (and don't think it has) any chance of happening. No one (apart from Manson crowd) could honestly be that stupid. Could they? Cheers, Soundman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qualtrough Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 (edited) South Vietnam, 1963 (from Wikipedia): "During this time, Madame Nhu, who was a defacto first lady due to Diem's bachelor life, inflamed the situation by mockingly applauding the suicides, referring to them as "barbeques" while Nhu stated "if the Buddhists want to have another barbeque, I will be glad to supply the gasoline" Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose.
