It's amazing that this happened at 9:30 last night and that there is still so little news on it.

[Yunla]

I pray for a swift and comfortable recovery for the poor people injured in this cowardly and despicable attack.

What a senseless and shameful act.

It is weekend, the jounalist are out partying.

[robblok]

Its amazing indeed now lets wait for the red supporters on Thai visa to claim it was self inflicted to gain sympathy and see how the UN rules on this one or that they remain silent and show their bias.

Wifey just talked with her friends and they say a few deaths but can't see any news on tv about what appears to be quite an organised attack which is both amazing but sadly expected on what passes for news in Thailand.

this violence coming from the "Thai Kill Thai" ... oooops I mean "Thai Love Thai" followers

I thought all the anti-government protesters were rich elite in Bangkok or radical Deep Southerners according to several TV experts.

We are saying it is a vicious cowardly attack. Is that straight enough?

Meanwhile, we just had 4 days of hilarity from PDRC stage about jolly Popcorn Killers. Shows which side of the divide have the almost complete monopoly on common sense.

Men with guns, men in black, popcorn warriers are not what we need.

Crocodile tears going to be hard to find on stage for Suthep after his 4 days of sick taunts.

The grenade is of course unlikely to be lobbed by a protester... they are stupid but probably not that stupid. They have however made so many enemies over the last few months, its difficult to point the finger at any one group.

oh and The UN not "ruling" to your liking ? stop complaining and get to their office in bangkok and show your disapproval but blowing on your whistle for a few hours !

[englishoak]

Barbaric cowardly act, no excuse for it. Reports is about 30 + injured 3 dead but still unconfirmed detail..

No idea why there is still so little reported detail.

When they stray out of their stronghold of Bangkok, and attempt to recreate in other parts of the country the havoc they created in Bangkok under the protection of the Rich E.E allies, they will be met with resistance,

It sure is and i agree we don't need violence at all let people protest, its a right to do so.

There are extremists on both sides using weapons and innocent people are getting hurt.

Trat is only 4 hours away from Korat where the ever peace-loving UDD are being entertained by the never incendiary Jatuporn 'let Bangkok burn' Prompan and Tida 'fake farmers' Thavornset.

But of course the 'at least 35 people injured' (Associated Press) must have shot and bombed themselves.

Stray? They were from Trat. That's where they live.

Once again you're trying to justify deadly violence against the protesters.

Uh.... sorry to ruin your nonsense, but these were local Trat people rallying.

Thanks, though, for confirming that gross inaccuracies are frequently frothed by some TV experts.

Which side of the divide have almost complete monopoly on common sense? I see two sides equally missing a lot of commodities not only including common sense.

Resistance? Is that what you call it kikoman? More like attempted mass murder at a peaceful rally. You disgust me!

One of the victims was a child shot in the head. Kikoman bow your head in shame and don't bother to return!

This at the same time the Red Shirt council declares to "Beat the war drums".

One of the victims is an 8 year old girl shot in the head, this is a black day for Thailand.

Yes, in this thread there are some photos of medical staff working hard doing their jobs to save lives and ease suffering, which they do every day to improve the quality of life for people in the nation. These people are doing what the politicians should do too, working hard and selflessly to protect citizens and provide a sense of wellbeing and security. Both sides of the political sham should look at those photos and recognise that medical workers are superior to politicians in every single way, and their devotion to caring for the public should be respected and emulated by those in the political sphere. I would be happy to see a retired head-nurse as PM, somebody who has devoted their life to caring and who knows what happens to people when dialogue breaks down.

I'm sure you mean when people dare to question the supremacy of the UDD in their own towns, where ever they may be, they can count on being shot and having grenades thrown at them. Welcome to the 'red-shirt' democracy.

Your vile attempt to justify this kind of violence against people for expressing a different opinion says more than I could about you and your red-shirt cohorts.

You sound quite pleased this happened to the PDRC. You and your likes have some maladjusted thinking if you really believe this kind of violence is ok.

Just because they attacked someone who thinks and feels differently about politics doesnt make it ok to hurt them. Next you will be thinking its ok to kill someone if they dont follow the REDS.

If it is your way or no way then you are the beginnings of a Hitler regime.

My suggestion to kikoman and jollyman and other who feel this way is to seek emergency psycholigical medical treatment

Im sure the doctors can find a cure for RED BLINDNESS.

I guess you could say I'm a red supporter, and I'm not saying it was self inflicted, I hope all these bomb throwers a court and jailed for the rest of their lives,

that goes for red's and Suthep's thugs also, but difficult to be fair as the courts have decided that the protesters "are peaceful and no weapons are being used".

I'm not really a red supporter more like a Suthep despiser...
