For those who feel the armed forces taking a tough line is the best course of action, consider how this political strategy has worked in the South of Thailand. How it has worked in the Middle East. A military crackdown at this point will just make people bitter and more desperate, never good things. These problems need to be worked through with non-violence.

if its a piss-poor response by the military, nothing will change, and things will get worse.

whats needed is a chinese style crackdown, i am thinking is tiananmem square, that got

things done quickly and effectively. look how peaceful china is now!

although non-violence is a noble thought, it is not in human nature to be non violent, we

have thousands of years of bloody world history to prove it, what makes you think the

people of thailand can set an example for mankind to follow?

If the military makes a bodge of it again, Sae Daeng's militia will spray the red shirts at Rajaprasong from the top of Central World, leaving the three stooges to blame the military for it.

Not to mention Thai Special forces sniping from buildings. What you got will be another big mess. There is only one way out of this....

Have any evidence of this?
