Fryslan boppe Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 (edited) I know the coup-mongers will be all up in the air about this and play the holier-than-thou card, plus who the perps were is anybody's guess....However, even in well policed societies it is generally known by the criminal element, that messing with the police personally, is risky......Not that this is anywhere close, but someone who kills or injures a policeman better make tracks, and fast. Revenge may be slow in coming, but come it will....The Police are a fraternity of brothers in the end. You mess with one, you mess with them all. That said, I wont stoop to the level of those who expressed a gleeful reaction to the shooting of UDD/RS leader Kwanchai, in the case of this tragedy.

These thugs have spread terror in Bangkok... Now they must live their lives looking over their shoulders. you're speaking of the police I presume. Can see from your photo where you talk and think from. Police have been off the streets for good reason. 1, to not give suthep his violence and the army their coup... 100% success there. 2. to show BKK supposed educated elites what life under a vile fascist mob of PRDC guards would be like. 100 Success. The middle class recoiled at the images of them and their arrogant drugged up appearance searching them at rallies and shopping centres and moved away to the white shirts. Very good had played by the Government. Bleat all you like, but you can't wail for the police to be disbanded and replaced by thugs, and then later go running to then asking why they didn't help you. Lot of this PDRC mob feel very safe in their numbers, but as they are dwindling or they have to go home..... booooo!!! it's a big scary thailand and not many people love a thug. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pipkins Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 For a sign? <deleted>.... TIT. People regualarly are killed for much less than this. Always been the same and has nothing to do with Thaksin or Suthep,.. it comes with the territory. Student on motorbike was shot dead in phuket few years ago middle of road by another biker. The thug who did it said he thought the boy had looked at him. This is why people need to take more heed of the talk of civil war. There are many people on both sides of this political divide who are more than capable of killing... and for quite small reasons. Coup is a big thing and could easily badly escalate. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ramrod711 Posted January 24, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted January 24, 2014 And now starts the police blame game from the yellow brown shirts. Tell us all about how he probably shot himself, or Suthep shot him to make the police or the red shirts look bad. Nobody is tired of hearing it, we could read that crap for hours. By the way, have you got any information as to the current location of Elvis and John Wayne? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
