aussieinthailand Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 lets hope this is start of getting rid of Taksin and his totally evil band at long last. Thailand will not move forward until he is at long last fully defeated. As far as his band of red shirt thugs are concerned anyone who believes they are nothing more than fascist bastards would be the sort of person who would have supported Hitlers brown shirts or his SS. You joking right? "anyone who believes they are nothing more than fascist bustards would be the sort of person who would have supported Hitler's brown shirts or his SS" A statement that has absolutely no credibility at all... I wonder if a Jewish person would agree with you? or wait a black person? how about gypsies? or any of the others that were persecuted by Hitler and the brown shirts and the SS, or any of their decedents? well I'm neither Jewish nor black and not a gypsy, 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this thing happens 2 years only, it will be remember as the 11-11-11. I heard they are not going to use the tanks...they give too much away, every time they truck them in, people notice and thats advanced warning.

eddie61 Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 (edited) Cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war..... anything to get rid of current Shindigs (Shinawatra Party) Not for me..... for the future of my kids, in case they defy my wishes and settle in Thailand. Incidentally, the Shakespeare quote comes from his play Julius Caesar, where another ambitious megalomaniac overreached his populist mandate, and the whole thing ended in tears. There are in fact many parallels between Julius Caesar and Thaksin. Beware the Ides of March!!!! Edited November 11, 2013 by eddie61 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Baerboxer Posted November 11, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted November 11, 2013 "Anti-amnesty groups step up rallies in a bid to topple PM" Can't legally and legitimately so we'll just have another coup, Don't care about the will of the majority of the people, we just want all the power and don't care how we take it, then cry that the other side are the evil ones and it's the red's, PTP, Thaksin, Yingluck, and Santa clause are to blame. What a steaming pile of buffalo sh_t... A majority of the people did not vote PTP. PTP don't seem to believe that a majority would support them, as you do, or they would use the referendum to amend the constitution as advised by the courts. The bill aimed at whitewashing the conviction, current outstanding criminal charges, and possible future charges on past actions, for PTPs owner and leader, has been seen for what it is - by a wide and varied section of Thai society. This wide and varied section have reacted against the lies, corruption and mismanagement of a regime that has treated them with contempt. The government response, pull back and mobilize the red shirted thugs. This government talks about democracy and justice whilst acting illegally and with a very undemocratic agenda. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post jpeg Posted November 11, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted November 11, 2013 The source said the red-shirt rally yesterday was a strategy of the party to show to its supporters it was not retreating and the show of force was also aimed at intimidating the military and independent organisations So they gather a mob to intimidate protesters, and here I thought PTP was trying to achieve reconciliation. "So they gather a mob to intimidate protesters," I wonder why so many here think that any time the red shirts gather or protest they are a "MOB", But when it's the yellow shirts they are just innocent protestors Don't know if you've ever personally witnessed a demonstration by either group, I have, and the Red faction are most decidedly a mob. The Yellows conduct themselves in a civilized manner, not even alcohol was allowed to be consumed at the PAD rally some years ago. How unlike the pissed up, molotov cocktail hurling, gas tanker fire setting, rocket launching at the skytrain, were those that made up the MOB. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may recall a certain event on July 3rd 2011 when the people of Thailand delivered a landslide victory to Yingluck in the election. Before I'm reminded that PTP "only" got 48% of the vote it's worth mentioning that in modern democracies with a "first past the post" system any party would die for such a large percentage. In the UK the only, by definition, democratically elected government was Clem Atlees' immediate post war administration with 52% of the vote. No other party came close.

smartconsulting Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 (edited) The source of this story is the nation. I think that if the main goal of the protests today was to oust Yingluck from power then there would be road closures, shopping mall closures, school closures and so on. Stories with these headlines make me angry when they over embellish the truth and speculate. I work on a Thai Army base and there are no movement of forces of any kind. Please stop scaring the people with these headlines. Bangkok is business as usual today as far as I can see. Even Central World is open so what's this all about??? Toppling the current government????

No Yellow Shirts involved???? Sondhi Limthongkul and Chamlong Srimuana are right in the middle of this, and they are 100% YELLOW SHIRTS! Not supporting the Reds in any way,think Yingluck is a joke and Thaksin is a megalomaniac who could best serve Thailand by having a fatal heart attack, but I always wonder if the Yellow defenders watched the same Thai TV and read the same Thai papers I did that clearly reported street violence by the Yellows, often times against innocent citizens, reports of the explosives they had, shooting indiscriminately from the back of a truck, In the take over of Gvt house, the first thing they did was to barricade the entrances and arm themselves with whatever weapon they could, and in the airport takeover, how they charged the police to attack them, shooting up police vehicles. You call that "peaceful"???? I don't support either group, and feel the Reds totally "stepped over the line" 2 years ago in their demonstrations, but please don't give me that "peaceful Yellow Shirt" B.S. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fab4 Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 So are you saying the two stories are bad reporting or you don't believe that Yingluck withdrew the amnesty bills? No one seems to have answered you directly so I will : Those who proposed the 6 bills which had not been presented to the house withdrew these 6 bills with great fanfare. However these 6 bills had not been considered by the house and therefor were not what the protests are about The bill which is before the senate was passed by the house and has not been withdrawn. If the bill is rejected by the senate then the govt must wait 180 days before it can bring it up again for debate. If after the bill is again voted on after 180 days it can be made into law without having to go to the senate again Yingluck and others have said that the Govt will not follow up on this bill after 180 days IF it is rejected by the senate. There was the option of withdrawing this bill from the senate before deliberation started and scrapping it as per the other 6, but the Govt did not do this. This is seen by some as a sign of insincerity. A very well informed explanation compared to the rest! Thank you! Sent from my iPad using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app Unfortunately a major point is wrong. "There was the option of withdrawing this bill from the senate before deliberation started and scrapping it as per the other 6, but the Govt did not do this. This is seen by some as a sign of insincerity." Once a bill has been through a third reading in the lower house it cannot be recalled from the Senate. It is up to the Senate what happens to the bill at this stage. Whether he passed incorrect information knowingly or not is another matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
