bangkokeddy Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 In Germany we have teh I'm sorry but I'll not shout with the wolves. I dunno what this Jatu guy told, so it's difficult for all of us to have an opinion. Anyway, we are speaking about FREE SPEECH. Am I right? Do you consider that opposition should have a voice in your country (Australia, North America, Old Europe)? If yes, why should Thais be deprived of FREE SPEECH? D o you consider that they are not clever enough? Do you consider that the situations are sooooooooooo different? I don't think so. In our western countries also, the FREE SPEECH was not obvious in the past. We fought for that. I respect Thais fighting for that. Now, it does not mean that I agree with their speech. Even Aung San Suu Kyi is free now. In Germany we have the right for FREE SPEECH. Excluded are Neo-Nazi speech, Bin Laden addicted propaganda, and speeches calling for BREACHING the PEACE. Where do you put Jatuporn? Probably not in the same league as Neo-nazis or Osama bin Laden. Btw. How the Germans call their participation in the war in Afghanistan?

somo Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 Just another example of the lack of free speach in Thailand. First - you can have bail as long as you don't say anything controversial. Oops - We heard that, go back to jail. It seems no one here likes him but crikey trying to lock him up for saying a few things is just stupid and plays into the hands of those saying they are fighting for freedom. He'll get more votes than ever now and rightly so. This fear of free speach says it all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minnehaha Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 wasn't he quoted in todays paper in an article on his dining at same restaurant as Korn the finance MP? one of his quips on facebook in their exchange as documented in BPost article was "I love and miss my Red Shirt Friends. Lets set the place on fire!!" Since it was on FB can it not be used if and when he ever goes to court? I could be mistaken - it could have been Nuttawut. Please correct me if I am wrong.

So, you confirm there is NO FREE SPEECH in Thailand. And probably there is FREE SPEECH in YOUR country. I think you need to go back and read what was written. My unaltered post follows.... If you watched the April 10th red rally on TV you'd know what was said. The opposition has plenty of voice here ... they AND the government are both not allowed to discuss some people/institutions .... If you remember even PTP top brass expressed disapproval and some left the PTP because of what Jatuporn was on about and the close ties between UDD/PTP/Thaksin. There is a simple fact that even your all CAPS won't get around ... there is no right of absolute free speech anywhere. The opposition has a voice here. They are not allowed to violate the LM laws, nor incite violence. If you think there is 'free speech" in your country please get on a stage with thousands of riled up people around you and tell them to burn the capital down. If you want faster results, walk into an airport and start talking about the bomb you have with you ..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lite Beer Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 UDD visits Jatuporn, Nisit in jail after bail revoked By Surapan Laotharanarit. BANGKOK, 12 May 2011 (NNT) – Members and supporters of the United Front of Democracy Against Dictatorship (UDD) have traveled to Bangkok Remand Prison to visit two core leaders, whose bail was recently withdrawn by the Court. UDD core leader Wiphuthalaeng Pattanaphumthai stated that members of the group as well as supporters, numbering over 300, had paid a visit to Mr Jatuporn Prompan and Mr Nisit Sinthuprai at Bangkok Remand Prison after the Criminal Court earlier in the day issued a verdict to revoke their bail. He said the UDD was extremely disappointed by such a ruling and claimed that it was in favor of the Government, which was trying to provoke the group to instigate chaos in the country in order to pave the way for the cancellation of the election. Another core leader Korkaew Pikulthong revealed that Mr Jatuporn was still in disbelief over his bail withdrawal although he affirmed his respect for the Court’s decision. In response to the case, the UDD is set to hold a meeting and a press conference tomorrow at Imperial Department Store Lat Phrao to declare the group’s next political direction. Mr Jatuporn and Mr Nisit were deprived of their temporary freedom on account of their improper references to the monarchy during the UDD rally at the Democracy Monument on 10 April. Seven other core leaders facing the same charge, however, were exempted by the Court for insufficient evidence. -- NNT 2011-05-12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if he was younger and in good health it would be ok then? The principle of free speach is surely extended to those you disagree with or it is meaningless. What you say about Jatuporn applies to most politicians. Would you put them all in jail? Your intolerance implies you are not in favour of democracy unless it suits you which makes you irelevant to any meaningful discussion on the matter.

Spot on - but we only have our politically correct selves to blame in the UK - if we speak up against it we get branded as racist - something which personally I dont take as an insult any more than many Asians do. Id rather be branded racist than soft and stupid - Andy Choudhary should be put on a plane and flown to the North see and given a parachute - much as Philipenos I know were evicted from Kuwait in 2008 for complaining about their treatment by the Kuwaiti Government.
