If the red shirts are not allowed to block one rural street in the North for a day, what are your thoughts about the PDRC blocking dozens of main streets in Bangkok for 4 months?

If the red shirts are not allowed to block one rural street in the North for a day, what are your thoughts about the PDRC blocking dozens of main streets in Bangkok for 4 months? It's not that, it's more the fact that the farmers have been the supposed foundation of the Red Shirt movement. Know they are being cast out, clearly as they are no longer useful, and haven't been paid. It smells more like Thaksin then ever, and nothing to do with democracy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShannonT Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Farmers just ask their money for live, goverment send them Police with baton and tear gas and red warrior to silent protest Vive the Red Taksin democracy Might I remind you that they were not pushed back with batons (I didnt read anything about tear gas, but might have missed it) because they were protesting, but because they were trying to break into the Army HQ. You will get the same treatment in any Western nation if you try to break into the Army HQ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trembly Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 (edited) this is the udd in action, you do as we say or you suffer, you are allowed your own opinion as long as it is what we tell you it is. This is the result of their big meeting, intimidate the farmers so yl is not pressured as much, threaten them with violence if they dare to try to protest againt the ptp or arganize any rallies. The reds are showing their true colours, they are communists, we say, you jump or you and your families will suffer from the consequences. This is how they control the farmers and the vote in the north/northeast, with threats and violence, pathetic.Honestly, calling them communists is an insult to communists. These are just ideologically confused thugs. The level of cognitive dissonance required for any of them to actually call themselves communists or socialists is staggering.Sent from my iPhone using Thaivisa Connect Thailand Of course they are not communists, they simply are fascists. They need the Navy treatment, the lash.....a little sodomy wouldn't come amiss eitherWhat, no rum?

bkksteviejai Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Found this picture on the web from the place where the red shirts took control. They look like Khmer Rouge to me. Same method of operation. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app Hey they're wearing the same shoes as those alleged fake armed PDRC guards / policemen from last weeks deadly and aborted attempt at Pan Fah bridge....and they wore black too.......nah can't be? Since you know they are the same shoes, can you let us know the brand and name?Or are you just stirring rumors? Humour fail.... again!Brand : streakers.. name :the left streaker sneaker is called pingtong and the right is peatong. OK happy now!

Crushdepth Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 The post does not state anything about them being armed yet calls them militants. Why is that unarmed red shirts are called militants but PDRC armed with guns are called guards? Maybe because they are intimidating farmers?

geriatrickid Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 So we expect the DSI and CMPO to round up these militant red shirts and throw them in jail.... right? The government must extend the same courtesies to the new group of protestors as they are obliged to give the PDRC. There is no state of emergency for that region. However, in the event that one is declared, the government cannot use force against the protestors. The civil authority has been blocked by the judiciary from taking effective measures against any protestors. At this time, all that has happened is that some protestors have set up some canopies and chairs and indicated they will counter protest another protest. If one group has the right to protest, so too does the other. This is the result of the interference from the judiciary and the military. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So when your red beloved start attacking farmers, we can expect the police force to be empowered (by the courts decision last week) and arrest them? Right.. i'll wait for that to happen then.

zakk9 Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 For almost five months Democrat supporters have had unopposed takeover of highways and streets in Thailand for their protests. This has deprived the public their right to free assembly in and movement through these occuppied areas. And everyone seems okay with that. But have the PTP supporters take the same action, albeit on a very limited basis, and everybody cries about how the PTP protesters are being criminal. As there is no longer the rule of law in Thailand that provides for police law enforcement vis a vis the Civil Court, PTP occupiers should no less be entitled to their occupations as the Democrats enjoy. PTP supporters did that in 2010, remember? They also stormed a hospital, set fire to buildings etc. The Suthep supporters have as far as I know not blocked any highways. The farmers have attempted to do that, but have on several occasions been stopped by the Red Army. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming by "Red Army" you mean the Thai Army and not the actual Red Army dissolved in 1946 ...when did they stop the farmers? Maybe I missed something but I'm pretty sure the Thai Army has so far not been involved in street blockades on either side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You seem to miss a lot of things, try to open the other eye, here's one instance of Red Shirts stopping farmers with threats to their families: But the protesting farmers in Phitsanulok suddenly announced today that they will no longer continue the rally. Explaining the group′s sudden disbandment, Mr. Chatree Amphoon, the leader of the farmer protesters, burst into tears and alleged that a group of local pro-government Redshirts had threatened to commit violence against his family members should he keep protesting. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boxclever Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Most of these so called farmers are paid protesters. Our neigbour has just returned from the farmers protest to Kanchanaburi, she was being paid 300bht per day. Funny thing is, no rice is grown in our area of Kancha (well very little anyway) and she is actually a red supporter The red gaurd is right, the majority are not disgruntled farmers, they are paid protesters paid to cause trouble. Your neighbour is the majority, or did she bring her dog? The 15,000 "fake farmers" who were on their way to Bangkok on 1,000 tractors last week were probably her relatives then? This is how it works...apparantly they are orginised into groups with one group leader, each group is up to 20 protesters, the leader ensures they are fed, sheltered and paid. They try to form each group from a certain area so they know each other. They are given paraphernalia to wave about and told were to go and what to do. In her group she claims 17 were paid and 8 are her relatives. So you can safely say about 80% are paid protesters. you actually believe that yourself? can you present one piece of credible evidence? just one...if not your just trolling! there so much evidence against the reds but none against the Anti-Government protesters. I know plenty of people taking part regular bkk workers, farmers from isaan, south and nua as well as business owners and students old and young. they laugh at what your saying mpst make more than 300baht per day working normal jobs. 300baht is what burmese factory workers make. state your case or stop spreading your own fiction I tell you what, go offer poor rural people to go to Bkk, sit on their Azz all day and wave a flag for 300 bht/day and you will get (how many farmers came to Bkk?) thousands of them signing up. These are poor rural people Evolare, not skilled Bkk factory workers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smileydude Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Not being paid and harassed by followers of the same people they voted in. I truly hope farmers wake up and smell the stench of populist policies. The ball is now in their corner. I hope they play it through and vote out these self serving politicians and their socialist groupies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wealth Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 this afternoon I popped into a rice-mill near Bangkok. It was abandoned, no gate guards and completely empty with 2 old trucks being parked there. No people around at all. It looked like someone was fleeing in a hurry. The place is otherwise in good condition, but so empty now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
