There's latest ABAC poll that shows that majority of Thais (or Bangkokians, I don't remember) want for warring parties to kiss up.

What an absurd idea. You don't kiss up with rapists and murderers. It's as if they kick and scream and refuse to accept their guilt, it means it's time to forgive them.

Do I need to list all the bombings and threats of violence coming against anti-Thaksin side?

Do I need to list all the bombings and threats of violence coming against anti-Thaksin side?

In reverse chronological order, you could start with last night's bombing of the PAD rally site

It just goes to show the desparation and bad intent of the Thaksin side of things.

They act on violent impulses to silence critics. A glaring lack of political maturity...

We can't WIN an argument so lets scare them into silence.

The other side, while not angelic, uses violence only when violently attacked.

Or to preemptively stop being violently attacked as in guards stopping

and holding suspected trouble makers temporarily.

PAD is not throwing bombs at peoples houses.

This just juxtaposes the two camps moral structures with glaring clarity.
