Lite Beer Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 Pathumthani Clash Leaves 3 Redshirts InjuredBy Kkaosod English BANGKOK: -- A clash between PCAD and Redshirts supporters in Pathum Thani province today has resulted in the injuries of three Redshirts and one high-school student who was caught in the crossfire.The clash happened during the demonstration of the local chapter of the People′s Committee for Absolute Democracy With the King As Head of State (PCAD) who marched in Mueang district with more than 100 vehicles in the convoy, inviting Pathum Thani residents to join the PCAD′s "shutdown" of Bangkok on 13 January.The PCAD convoy was led by Buddhist monk Luang Phu Buddha Isara and Mr. Attaphol Arunuros.However, supporters of the United Front of Democracy Against Dictatorship (UDD) were rallying nearby in Lamlukka district. When the PCAD march entered the district, a group of UDD supporters led by Mr. Wutthipong ′Ko-Tee′ Kochathammakhun tried to chase away PCAD demonstrators.Police officers intervened and attempted to separate the two sides from each other, but Mr. Wutthipong′s car was able to elude the police blockade and approached the PCAD supporters. Chaos ensued, with gunfire erupting in the area.Mr. Wutthipong′s car was later attacked by small ping-pong bombs and gunshots. One Redshirt was reportedly shot in his hip, while two other Redshirts were injured by the explosives.One high school boy was also injured as he was passing by the area when the clashes took place. The victims were later transported to Bhumibol Hospital and B-Care Hospital.Meanwhile, a minivan belong to the PCAD convoy was likewise damaged by a gunshot, but a witness claimed that a PCAD supporter on a motorcycle fired his weapon at the van and the Redshirts.

waza Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 Hot heads with guns, not a good combination. The BIB need to control the confrontations, the UDD leader should never have been let through, they should do more than sit back and watch the gunfights.

Popular Post IMA_FARANG Posted January 10, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted January 10, 2014 (edited) As always the violence will be started by he students .... and of course the red Shirt hotheads. The PCAD is not really under control by Suthep who actually does want a peaceful protest and is trying his best to avoid violence. The PCAD students however are a different matter. They are hoping for violence, and they believe that violence will bring in the Army and a coup. There are hotheads there, among the PCSD students, who seriously want a "revolution" (without really knowing what they actually mean by that term). We shall just have to see what happens. As for the Redshirts, the UDD is the redshirt"s most radical faction. Let the fun and games begin, it will damage: The tourist numbers The public perception of the Thai fantasy of "Land Of Smiles" that Thailand tries to project overseas. The Stock Exchange of Thailand and overseas investment. And, frankly, I don't think all that is totally a bad thing. Thailand, and both established political parties have been living the lie of a glittery sugar-plum fairy image of the "Land Of smiles" for to long now. It's time for a little harsh reality as medicine. Until the government of Thailand (and the political "opposition" also) actually come to grips with the reality of Thai society, nothing will be solved. No matter how harsh the cure actually is.

FangFerang Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 The PDRC was marching near the redshirt camp to provoke them, and the scarlet dunces fell for it. Now both sides run around pointing fingers at the other. He said that she said that you said.....it is all whitenoise from both sides now. The headline should read "Strategically challenged redshirt leaders take bait like hungry fish." The demonstrators were demonstrating against the counter-demonstrators demonstratively, and the counter-protester's protestations were counter-counter protested by the original protestors, who were in reality the counter-protesters in the last protests. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where were you in 2010, sitting on your hands It seems to me that the original post is an ideal: i.e. shouldn't ALL monks involving themselves in politics be disrobed? (i.e. yes, we do know monks do this, but they shouldn't). I thought that was obvious from the start and I'm baffled at these pointless responses. And now you've all wasted my time, too. Sheesh!
