Red shirts on the streets again?

[OneMoreFarang]

I just drove along Central World. I saw a lot of police and some red-shirts in their full "uniform".

What is going on?

[BritManToo]

I'm thinking civil unrest before the election is deemed 'null an void' by the generals.

You know it's coming.

Don't wear a shirt then you can't be accused of wearing the wrong color, indecent exposure maybe

They should have declared those red-shirts a terrorist organization at that time.

No red-shirts, no problems. 

 

And never forget!

Lots of soldiers died. The soldiers died while doing their duty. RIP to all of them.

 

If the fugitive criminal wouldn't have organized those thugs, then nobody would have died.

That reminds me that I have an orange motorcycle. I guess I have to be careful now.

That were Sondhi Limtongkul's criminal yellow shirts, not the red ones.

Red shirts always want to make problem ....   everyone knows that ....

Just what the military want. The perfect excuse to over ride the elections and say sorry but we need another coup to restore Peace and Order.

Maybe the sponsor of the red-shirts should learn from that and tell them to stay home in their red villages.

Do any of the Thai political parties have Sky Blue and White as their colours.

If so, send them to Etihad on Sunday.  555

Correct, one general was killed by his own army.

Great, we need muscle. And the reds have that. Should give the thugs in fatigues, more correctly their leaders, pause before they try to subvert this election too.

 

Slava, Pita. Slava, Thaksin.

No. That is not what I see.

I see that he is trying to lick someone's feet so that he doesn't have to go to jail.

As usual, it's all about him and not about the Thai people.

What a tedious man you are, can you never accept that most people know Toxin was a crook but he was a crook that could be voted out just as he was voted in, your hero's in green seemingly cannot and where not

 

I really hope the Thai people have had enough and if you are inconvenienced by it well that's just tough titty and maybe will give you a very small insight into the inconvenience Thailand has been subjected to by anti democracy people like you...

If you would have read my posts then you would know that I hate Thaksin and I am grateful to Prayut that he helped to remove the criminal.

That doesn't make me a fan of Prayut and it doesn't make me a fan of the military.

The enemy of my enemy is not automatically my friend. It's not really that difficult to understand.

I am happy that the people clearly voted for something new and not Prayut and not Thaksin. Great!
