Rob8891 Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 A neat move (unfortunately) by Poo and her playmates.... The anti-gov't protesters have split themselves into smaller groups and are all now wrong-footed under the ISA. Divide and conquer. She is on record as saying that no action would be taken unless protesters were in areas under the ISA, so now she has cast her net wide and could get quite a catch. Drat, drat and DOUBLE DRAT.

DrTuner Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 I missed the 2006 opportunity to take a photo with soldiers at the front of a tank in BKK. Looks like I'll get another shot at it and perhaps even a third later, there's more of them Shinawatras available for deportation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WAERTH Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 I do not know how this round will end. But I have a feeling that the winners of this round will show no mercy to the opposing side this time.

OJAS Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 "International standards" what does that mean? Chinese..Russian...Argentinian ???????????????????? Plus the UK, New Zealand and no doubt other so-called "democratic" Western nations where measures are currently under consideration aimed solely at suppressing street protests??? Bank on topic, why was the ISA not enforced across the whole Greater Bangkok area while these protests were a mere twinkle in Suthep's eye? Doing so now sounds rather like slamming the stable door shut after the horse has bolted to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post SlyAnimal Posted November 25, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted November 25, 2013 Good to see that the government is going to disperse the protesters. Peaceful protests are annoying, but seizing government buildings is breaking the law, when they do that, they're starting to turn rabid. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Gsxrnz Posted November 25, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted November 25, 2013 I can't help thinking that we really refer to the country of Thailand incorrectly. It is in fact "Toyland" The current story is something like "Tessy Bear wants Noddy to come back to Toyland, but Big-Ears is Mai-mee-kwaam-sook." 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peaceful protests are annoying, but seizing government buildings is breaking the law, when they do that, they're starting to turn rabid. I think you mean 'attempt to disperse the protesters'. Judging by the volume of work to be done and the fact that I doubt they are going to move along peacefully, I would say that it is downright dangerous at this point.

Popular Post DiamondKing Posted November 25, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted November 25, 2013 (edited) With the taking over of government building she has to do this as that is TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE and is CRIMINAL Now its up to the Yellows if they comply which history shows they will not lets just hope the current government handles it better than the yellows did when the unleashed the military on unarmed reds the last time around.

Popular Post VegasVic Posted November 25, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted November 25, 2013 This is not a "Ghandi" like protest, these are the same thugs who took over the airport a few years ago They have already taken over government buildings, assulted foreign journalists who tried to report on their actions, and are in the process of taking control of the Thai television network. Ms. Shinawatra has been very patient with these hooligans thus far, with the feeling that if you give a rabid dog enough rope they will eventually hang themself, and Mr. Suthep is currently wrapping that rope around his neck. These infantile yellow shirt radicals have been allowed the right to assemble and protest for 2 days now and they have finally crossed the line like we all knew they would, it is now time to end this situation before Thailand gets another black eye like the airport debacle 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Judging by the volume of work to be done and the fact that I doubt they are going to move along peacefully, I would say that it is downright dangerous at this point. If they want the protesters to be dispersed, they'll be dispersed. The only question is how heavier hand they need in order to do it. The Yellow shirts will probably want to have some of their people killed so that they can hold them up as martyrs, but from what I've read previous "red" governments have been significantly less violent than the last "yellow" government (Probably because the red governments get their power from a majority of voters, so public perception is important. The democrats on the other hand had the army at their back, so didn't need to worry about a military coup etc) Sent from my iPhone using Thaivisa Connect Thailand 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
