Popular Post gemini81 Posted January 28, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted January 28, 2014 Interesting is how only these 'elusive men in black' and other associated red shirt hitmen are always the guys who can't seem to get caught. Ironic how that works. One day Thaksin, it'll be your turn.

chainarong Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Shinawatra democracy at work again. RIP Groundless accusation at work again. Read & Instist on Proofs first It's hard to pin point the motive for such a crime, some of the protesters on both sides have a rather narrow view of life , this could be attributed to the education system, they seem to think everyone should think like them, the problem of solving the crime is equally hard for poorly educated police officers like the DSI , who by now must be over loaded with these crimes , the old way of settling a score still survives in Thailand, if you don't like some one shoot them.

Popular Post Time Traveller Posted January 28, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted January 28, 2014 (edited) If I had a business that was interrupted due to the protesters and consequently failing, I think I'd be pretty angry with the anti-government protesters as well. The fact the he was wearing political clothing does not indicate any political opponents were behind this. It could have been any reason for the killing. That's what the anti-government protesters don't understand. When you block the streets and drive away customers, then you make more enemies than just the government and their supporters. And the mafias don't like to see their income streams disrupted. Edited January 28, 2014 by Time Traveller 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toybits Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 And do you have any proof this was done by Red Shirt Hitmen? With so many people wearing those items, what are the chances that a personal grudge against that person was the motive. I will not say that this had no political motive either. But the way you conclude that it was INDEED the act of a Rogue Red Shirt JUST is too much of a stretch. Interesting is how only these 'elusive men in black' and other associated red shirt hitmen are always the guys who can't seem to get caught. Ironic how that works. One day Thaksin, it'll be your turn.

toybits Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 The only question is - which side is doing this? It does look like an act of intimidation. Or it could have been done to tarnish the image of the government. Really don't know. But a murder is a murder - no matter the motive. There were no random killings of protesters in 2010. This is a rain of terror ordered by high up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
