Popular Post Crushdepth Posted February 18, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted February 18, 2014 Suthep is to blame for this , he is a raving idiot, It is obvious that the firing is coming from the protesters, if the Police were doing the shooting Why is one dead and at least 4 or more wounded, Thai news stated 29 some were injured at noon, did not say which sides. It is time for the rule of law to be enforced, let the army do what they may!. Oh REALLY? After the rants about the violence of 2010 you now advocate the use of force against these protesters?

Popular Post spirit47 Posted February 18, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted February 18, 2014 Picture of used ammunition used by the protesters to shoot at police. The picture was taken by people living near the protest site. Sent from my HTC One using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app But funny that the police had the guns to use it.....And there were reports that the police used them. But of course that could be confused with rubber bullets.... Uhm... On this picture (already posted before) of "material" seized at the protest site... you can see similar ammunition... But, of course, the yellow farangs will come up with all sorts of stories to convince the world that it is "Thaksin himself who shot the police in order to get his money back" (or similar irrational comment ) ImageUploadedByThaivisa Connect Thailand1392707204.335841.jpg Sent from my iPhone... Please, tell me why these failed Government not resign? The majority of Thai want Yinluck to resign, PTP get less than 20% in the election, now why you not pray for democracy? Have you ever seen a bunch of incompetence like this Government? This all happen because the thugs you support not resign. This Government lost legitimation few months ago. Carry on with your nonsense posts, it will not change reallity... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ralf61 Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 ah, peaceful protesters, who siege and destroy goventment property, lay down authorities work, and end up in shooting cops. Well, very similar to Kiev and Venezuela. Who goddamn is behind this? Or do you belive in coincidences? Just asking Ralf And yes, compared to my home country: if you set your unauthorised foot into the properties of my PM, you'll simply get handcuffed and arrested, resistives will get shot... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pisico Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 And before Tharit, Chalerm and their supporters here say that the police wasn't armed.

It is time for the rule of law to be enforced, let the army do what they may!. Why do you bother to post other than to stir the pot. This is full of contradictions. So of the 29 injured lets assume some were protesters then how were they injured?

transam Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 If someone goes to a protest march tooled up they have one thing one their mind. Using it, otherwise why take it. These worms are always in the woodwork, no-matter what country.. There is a free hotel 6 feet under for these scrotes.

uty6543 Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 So many posts seem to trying to take the moral high ground by claiming those they support are better, more / less responsible, destroy the government / destroy suthep / destroy the protesters / help the farmers / hate the farmers etc. etc. The list is as long as it is disheartening. The sad irony is that these post merely prolong the fueding and bickering which has led to such division, hatred and sadly death. Talk about how we can solve these problems - don't add more fuel to the fire. I agree with you but these problem are not that simple that they can be solved easily. I think I can safely say that the vast majority want to see a return to normality, want to see the farmers paid and a government without corruption. What are your suggestions for solving these problems? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pisico Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 And who said the protesters don't have weapons. More lies. Please calm down. This is just an isolated incident. I am sure it is just an accidental discharge. Not the fault of the protesters. I won't happen again. Suthep's protesters came in peace and with no weapons. More lies.

Popular Post fab4 Posted February 18, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted February 18, 2014 Suthep is to blame for this , he is a raving idiot, It is obvious that the firing is coming from the protesters, if the Police were doing the shooting Why is one dead and at least 4 or more wounded, Thai news stated 29 some were injured at noon, did not say which sides. It is time for the rule of law to be enforced, let the army do what they may!. My dear idiotman (no offence, just translating the thai in this English language forum), can you point out to me where it says the protesters started the violence in the clash described? Furthermore your reasoning on 'if the police did the shooting' is misleading. One the police is not supposed to shoot, two the police would only in utmost defense shoot non-lethally and three even the army accused of shooting really thousands of round into a densely packed mass of protesters had a half dozens deaths on their side. Now as for the last, are you suggesting that the specially training forces of the Police is not doing it's assigned task correctly? Did you not read the web fact post above? Grenades, rubl, grenades from the protesters aimed at the police. Still I suppose it's kind of reassuring that you're still defending the indefensible, the "peaceful protester" and now a new twist - it's the Police's fault and coupled with the despicable conceit that the army were justified in killing 80 odd civilians in 2010. A new low even by your, "standards". 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djjamie Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 QuoteRIP to the policeman. Which ever side is responsible for the killing of a police officer on duty it is a terrible crime. I'm sorry, whichever side was responsible? I don't think it was the police..................... RIP to the policeman and rapid recovery for the injured And nobody is saying it is. But you also can't be sure it was the protestors. Consider that Chalerm needs the court to approve the State of Emergency tomorrow. Peaceful protesters do not support his need. An image of violent armed protesters however, gives him very good cover, and you have to admit this "takeback" was sure conveniently timed. Both the protesters and Chalerm have a strong motive for a dead policeman, and it is quite easy in the present environment to place a stooge somewhere to cause mayhem. My guess is still that it was one of the protesters, but only a fool would be certain of that conclusion without much more evidence. This is a political game for keeps, and the government has repeatedly shown it doesn't care too much about the suffering of the pawns on the ground. That makes analysis of the crime much more difficult, and it is going to require a lengthy investigation. I hope we get the chance for that, because however you look at it, an innocent person was just murdered by someone. Interesting analogy made more so by the fact that yingluck only said 6 hours ago on TV that the anti government protestors are to blame for the rice scheme non payments. So with that fresh in their mind we now have a policeman dead. So demonize the PDRC for the rice scheme. Demonize the PDRC for the violence. Lucky that trick won't work on the NACC.

The Deerhunter Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 tominbkk, on 18 Feb 2014 - 19:16, said: Chalerm and Yingluck are to be blamed for this. I thought that it was rampant corruption on all sides over many years. Comment.. Yes you are right. Thaksin exploited a poorly represented part of the country because previous governments were rorting the system for their own gain. Thaksin did not invent corruption but he raised it to an epic proportion. He also raised an interest in the power of politics in those people and it will be his dynasty's downfall when they all learn to see through the smoke & lies. Yingluk & Chalerm are merely following the master... literally. Lets face it, they can ONLY follow instructions. Poor Thailand. How to find a way out of this mess. RIP the dead policeman. Only one dead so far today. I feared it would be much worse by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MunterHunter Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 IF, and this is a big if, this truly has, and remains a peaceful protest, it is about time Suthep made a nationwide broadcast for the protesters to stand down. In any scenario, one death is too many and the future of the current situation is looking extremely dark. Why should Suthep stand down his protests over this? The Thaksin Dictaroial regime is responsible for thousands of deaths in the past... War on Drugs, Tak Ban, the 2010 protests plus the on-going constant campaign to shoot at the protest sites under the cover of darkness, granades/bomb being thrown at the protestors... The blood of all injured and dead today is on the hands of Yingluck and Chalerm - they need to be charged with murder and sent to court... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More lies.CNN has reported that police have fired both rubber bullets and live ammunition. Just stating facts, whilst you are throwing around accusations of lies. CNN has reported that police have fired both rubber bullets and live ammunition. BBC reported that Thailand's Dear Leader had sushi for breakfast and Yinluck is a hot favorite for the Nobel Peace Prize. ABC Australia reported that pigs grew wings and started flying over Bangkok pooing on the annoying protesting rice farmers.

Nickymaster Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Now that they started killing the police and firing at unarmed police cans the next move is for the protesters to start burning down building and malls and say well the Red Shirts did it so we can also. Another group has a monopoly on burning, red snake. Unarmed police and 2 protestors died.
