Abhisit Insists Thailand Stable, But Emergency Decree Remains

[ThisIsMadness]

I predict

The fight will start all over again in less than 3 months.

More killings

More buildings destroyed

UN will Begin to call Thailand a Rouge nation state

Paid propaganda machine will just keep controlling TV, Radio, print, and the INTERNET.

Meltdown of this place is inevitable.

It is only a matter of when.

Yes, maybe that will be the case

And if that turns out to be true as you say, lets hope you dont forget your part in it with your threatening and inflamatory statements

Know something to be shared with the authorities do you Ern

Handicapped protesters threaten to join UDD

BANGKOK, 8 June 2010 (NNT) — More than 100 handicapped people gathered in a mob in front of the Government House this morning calling for the government to allocate a fair quota of lottery tickets.

Disappointed members of the Association of the Physically Handicapped (APH) came to demand justice on the allocation of lottery tickets, citing that the majority of the lotto tickets were distributed to middlemen rather than distributing it to handicapped people nationwide.

Yesterday the lotto committee and the APH failed to reach conclusions to solve the issue.

The angry protesters said that if the government does not resolve the issue, they will join hands with the anti-government Untied Front of Democracy Against Dictatorship (UDD).

Local Red Shirt leader shot dead in Nakhon Ratchasima

NAKHON RATCHASIMA, June 10 (TNA) - A local leader of the anti-government Red Shirt movement was killed by gunmen on Wednesday night in this northeastern province.

Pol Col Wicharawit Kritrittasak, deputy commander of the Nakhon Ratchasima provincial police said Sakrin Kongkaew, 24, was shot dead in Buayai municipality.

Col Wicharawit said investigators questioned witnesses and collected circumstantial evidence, but no one could give clear description of the gunmen as the attack occurred at night, and it was hard to see the faces of the attackers.

According to the initial investigation, the police believed there were at least two assailants and the motive behind the killing was presumed to be linked to personal or political conflict.

Mr Sakrin also known as Uan Buayai, a key Red Shirt leader in Nakhon Ratchasima, was earlier summoned to report to the authorities at Suranaree army camp here on May 2.

The Red Shirts staged a mass rally in Bangkok from mid March to May 19 when they dispersed from the Ratchaprasong area following a military operation to retake the protest site amid shopping malls and business offices.

Some angry protesters torched 39 spots in the capital, while Red Shirt supporters burned provincial halls in four northeastern provinces. (TNA)

LOL! Agreed, they wouldn't take on armed red shirts, but they'll take on blind lottery ticket vendors. A very brave and upstanding bunch indeed!

What do you use to read tv with yer head in sand, a periscope?

Wonder if you were one of the hecklers of the few of us, last year, were publising warnings of the size of the coming red storm?

How exactly is the situation, back to ABnormal, any less volitile? Ernie gave some details, you gave 'squat'.

In addition to what EB, said.

They've given the red side martyrs.

Sondhi and Thaksin are still not in jail.

NObody is talking about the main reason for the troubles.

I have no idea who JS is but if he thinks Thailand is on the verge of breaking up, did he give reasons?

Instead of your usual one liners, explain why you think Thailand is on the road to peace and stabilty.

Anybody who reads almost any TV News thread can see it is NOT.

since the title itself is so contradicting I have stopped reading further.
