4223rhodes Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 I agree --- this needs to stop ----The Reds need to get off the street. Their leaders need to be arrested for sedition and inciting insurrection. Their speech from the red stage was certainly recorded and it is clear. There is no valid defense for their actions. The police and army may have to move in and that will be awful but it needs to end NOW. If the Army stands down and Abhisit leaves the country, things will calm down in a few days. Obviously, bringing in the Army was wrong. Those who made the decision must accept the consequences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoshiwara Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 One post deleted. Let's express out feelings about the post, not the poster--especially if the view is very negative. I'm not telling you how to do your job, but these hate mongers need culling. Stay calm. Be patient. The reds have shown their true face as we knew they eventually would. It is a tragedy that Thaksin is just using them as cannon fodder. The forum red cheerleaders are just a sideshow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkfish Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 (edited) Television news reporting two army soldiers killed (shot) I've just seen pictures of Red shirts with their faces hanging off in Pantip how did they hang their faces off?

animatic Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 Jatuporn now parading a red shirt corpse on stage and winding up the crowd. This is a true atrocity. Absolutely barbaric. As far as I can see, they are not showing any images of the many soldiers wounded on the ground from their attack. Absolutely disgusting behaviour if true. They have a corpse on stage? Sick sad <deleted>! Rick Buddhist acts... not hardly. Respect for the dead, not even slightly. They were itching to put on a disgusting display, and now they are hard at it.

NanLaew Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 Channel 9 on live video now showing reds throwing molotov cocktails into buildings near Phan Fa and setting then on fire. They are ordinary shophouses. The living and working places of ordinary working people. What sort of a "people's revolution" is this? Lawks! You would have been a scream in Spain!

SomTumTiger Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 Clearing out the Reds is sad, because there are a lot of innocent, well meaning people in that group. But those innocent people are being used as human shields for some of the biggest scumbags Thailand has on offer. Its a sad state of affairs, but the government and military have reacted with measure and calm, even after the miltary has been attached with lethal weapons repeated. The leaders of the Reds, must be put in jail. This movment can find new leaders, if it is truly a "movement of the people". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoshiwara Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 I log off now, disgusted by the people on here who support government controlled violence against their own people.When you attack, people will defend. Who attacked who ? Who started this ? Sleep well Abhisit and Suthep, the blood is on your hands. Stop the violence and stop the killing !! What a joke. The reds launch attacks and here we have someone oh so innocently asking who started this. No wonder you are logging off. Nothing sensible to say.

4223rhodes Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 The reports from non-government sources are very different than those in the controlled media. I'm afraid that those outside Thailand will get accurate news faster than those of us within Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Netfan Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 I understand the excitation of some of you with the conflict on-going. However, things are taking a bad orientation for all sides and may become uncontrollable.This entire story one way or the other will finish in negotiation and compromises. The military gesticulations have no more object than positioning each other in favourable position for the discussions. I think as an experienced man, we have to call everybody to the restraint and to cool down: losses of lives must be avoided. Lives are invaluable Good point . You say "let soften them a bit" then negociate . Makes sense . Definitely we must remain measured , and all will if we dont hear all the time the violent anti-red rethoric of the last 3 weeks What a load of old croc. The reds are going all out with guns and petrol bombs and you are being Mr Reasonable. Thaksin apologist trying on yet another set of clothes. Yes- these are not poor farmers out there now for the Reds. These are the hard core thugs. The Red leaders have been pushing for this for months. The ending is just not what they promised Thaksin. Wonder if they will be cut off for failing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SomTumTiger Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 The TV reds are having as bad a day as their real live counterparts, it seems. But both are spewing the same invective, lies, and vitrol, that give them common ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
