Lite Beer Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Protesters Alarmed By 'Sniper' In DSI Building By Khaosod English. BANGKOK: -- Anti-government protesters have alleged that a sniper has taken position in the headquarters of the Division of Special Investigation (DSI). Luang Phu Buddha Issara, Buddhist monk and a leader of People′s Committee for Absolute Democracy With the King As Head of State (PCAD), led the crowd to DSI building on Chaeng Wattana Road this afternoon and asked the officials to let them "inspect" the office.According to Luang Phu Buddha Issara, he had noticed suspicious-looking individuals taking up position inside the 11-floor DSI building, and a number of PCAD leaders found that they were targeted by "laser" light. The monk then accused the DSI of deploying snipers to intimidate the protesters.However, the DSI office′s entrance was firmly locked when the protesters arrived, and a DSI official told the protesters that they must force their way into the office on their own because the DSI would not unlock the gate.PCAD supporters also refused to force their way into the building, as many feared they might be charged with intruding into state agencies.DSI officials eventually unlocked the entrance on the condition that the protesters would rally in front of the building in a peaceful manner. Lt.Col. Sitthipon Charoenputh, a high-ranking DSI officer, later met with the protesters and assured them that no sniper, or any armed security forces, was stationed in the headquarters.Assured by Lt.Col. Sitthipon′s assurance, Luang Phu Buddha Issara led the protesters peacefully back to their rally site in front of Government Complex.Meanwhile, the number of protesters at Government Complex rally site is markedly small today, our correspondent reported. The atmosphere around the protest campsite became more tense after Luang Phu Buddha announced that he had received reports of an impending police crackdown on the protesters.PCAD guards also imposed strict security measures around the rally site, such as forbidding vehicles to approach the campsite out of concerns that the protesters might be attacked.Luang Phu Buddha Issara later said that he has been informed of the DSI pressing insurrection charges and issuing summon warrant against him, but he insisted that he would not meet with DSI officers as requested unless Mr. Tharit Pengdit, chief of the DSI, personally served him the warrant."We will guarantee him safety if he does show up," the activist monk said.

If they wanted to kill him they would not use a laser nor do it from a government building. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taony Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 So they DSI told them that they could go in as long as they break in themselves? And then they changed their mind and let them in anyway? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRSoul Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 So they some people in that building and then later get hit with lasers coming from some place else, and they put the two incidents together. Barely intelligible post, but may I point out that laser sighting not only lets the shooter know when he is on target, it also lets the targets know where you are aiming from. Great for police to intimidate criminals, but in a combat situation as handy as a big sign saying "I AM HERE". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRick Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 What a great Buddhist example this monk is making. Oddly enough I thought two days ago this same guy was in a crap ton of trouble for getting involved in politics. I am surprised he is not holding a child as a shield. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Least he told em flat out that they would have to break in and the DSI would defend it. Put them on the spot and they backed off...... not enough of them So they will be trying to get more supportes on the street with their BS tales. As the press notice..... very very small numbers there, smaller minds as well as many left to join the whiteshirts. Love to see a big police jackboot up his fat corrupt yellow backside when the day comes. I'll have it as my screen saver. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fat Haggis Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 what if it was a shark with a frikken laser beam??? Cool way of dispersing a crowd though, no not the sharks, although that's not a bad idea, but light up the crowd with dozen of lasers, and they'll scatter and be home before the Sum Tam gets cold!! JR Soul, you can only see the origin of the laser under the correct lighting conditions, unless it happens to be in your eyes, then you can see shyt!!

Boxclever Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Sniper would not use laser for moving targets. Telescopic is the prefered method because of moving targets and ranges. Someone was f'ing with them with a laser light and they freaked out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pipkins Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Is this news??? It is news when a mob makes repeated attempts to raid the equivalent of FBI etc. Strange with the DSI looking at the land plots and the palm oil scams and the Phuket and Surat Thani mafia, that they were one of the first to be mobbed back in November. If you don't think it is news, you are really on the wrong forum. the laser. Freaking them out, the Gov and Police will try to spook them and keep them awake an on their toes as much as possible. They will pretend they have seen intruders and chase them with sirens etc. but, the objective is just to piss off the mob and keep them awake. Sweet dreams. A coup attempt is a war, and the Government side or the Redshirts will fight back, and strongly. It's just not the time yet and they just letting Suthep expose himself more to the world so they can see what a complete fascist he is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They lock, load, light up the bead, and fire. If this was a sniper, he was very poorly trained. It is not like the movies, where you put a bead on someone for targeting fun. You only turn the light on when you are ready to turn someone's light off. Even worse, the cheesy equipment has lasers that can only be seen through special goggles, not high tech at all, and which makes it so that the target never knew they were in someone's sights when the bullet hits. This reads like fiction, sounds like fiction, and quite probably is fiction. I might be wrong, of course, but these square pieces do not fit into a round puzzle that involves anyone with more than ten hours of training, and I literally mean ten hours of training. I consider this story unadulterated crap, of the highest order. Edited January 23, 2014 by FangFerang 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great for police to intimidate criminals, but in a combat situation as handy as a big sign saying "I AM HERE". They never said they saw the laser was being pointed from there. They say they saw people in a building and then described a different laser incident. You can't see the source of the laser unless you're looking directly at the source. Which according to the article, there weren't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
