Popular Post bkkgooner Posted April 20, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted April 20, 2014 Well done to the security staff and ground staff there who actually stood up to them for once. If the police had been there I guarantee they would stepped to the side and let the red shits camp themselves in the terminal. These guys have been getting away with stuff like this for so long that they now think that it's their democratic right to cause chaos and instil fear in their fellow citizens. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you do that then you help Thaksin who thrives by dividing the Thai people. One of the things that gave him the ability to unite the North was the insults and degrading comments that they had ben subject to, Now the Shin dynasty has be shown to not care but are using the people from the north it is not the time to reinforce old grievances, I don't think he was being insulting, just accurate. How else would you describe their behavior? If they want to change people's opinion of them they should change their behavior first, instead all they did was reinforce their reputation.

boomerangutang Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Run Somchai run! Maybe next time he'll try to at least appear independent.Perhaps you're right. This is Thailand. You don't say what you really think, you learn to say what you're required to say, or say nothing. If Thais get it right, they'll be right alongside Chinese and N.Koreans. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The stuttering parrot Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Ummmm someone on here with selective memory doesn't recall the events of 2008. I was lucky enough to miss the fallout from their actions however two people I know who we're directly affected were a doctor and a friend who's mother passed away in nz and they were both stranded in Sweden. Why should the world go on hold because of thai ploltics? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pimay1 Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 who earlier described them rude, low and wild. They instead booed at the EC chairman and also threw rotten fishes, eggs and even human excreta. So his description was not accurate !! Seems accurate to me. rude: offensively impolite or ill-mannered. Uncivil or abusive. low: boorish or tastless wild: a person of violent temper, erratic behavior. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Second to the poster who remarked about the carry on at the airport and uneducated masses maybe he should reflect on the utter disaster the yellows caused not Thailand but the world with their actions several years ago If you want to make it class warfare then maybe you could call your mob educated scum!

How else would you describe their behavior? If they want to change people's opinion of them they should change their behavior first, instead all they did was reinforce their reputation. My opinion FWIW is the behaviour displayed at the airport were revolting (both meanings of the word) - please think about that. However I find the ongoing cycle of abusive comments that are generalised to larger groups and them the whole population are also revolting. Remember that the actions of all the airline staff would appear to be appropriate, civilised and professional - most of these people would have been local and more representative of the population. This is the problem when people generalise statements. Who should change first - easy to answer those who claim the moral/ethical high ground - that could be a very constructive competition, 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post WoopyDoo Posted April 20, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted April 20, 2014 (edited) I am more interested in what would have happened had they got hold of the bloke... I would imagine he would have taken a brutal kicking and then smeared with sh-t. All while the police stood by smiling. Sort of pity it didn't happen really, that would have really opened up the eyes of the world on PTP/UDD idea of what exactly this regime is all about. People even in Thailand only see or get a sense of what the reds are like when they hit BKK, but they don't realise that this tiny minority are responsible for terrorizing the entire north and northeast. People up here are petrified of them and the UDD. It really is not a lot different from N Korea where people live in constant fear of violence and intimidation for just having the wrong thoughts. This PTP and UDD mob need to be totally taken down and all these red shirts should be crushed into submission..... even if it is at the point of a gun. They are the scum of Thailand.......

Popular Post WoopyDoo Posted April 20, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted April 20, 2014 The Guerilla War comes a step nearer In a way.... I hope it happens. Because if there is a civil war... then it won't be north V south as many people believe.... It will be the red shirt minority against the rest of Thailand. They will be crushed into the earth and I can't wait for that time to come.... I personally hope and pray that not a single one will survive. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still reckon he is independant, not even a tad biased? I don't think that you need to try very hard to convince most people that there is a lot that you are not aware of - or at least choice not to be aware of. Lets look past things then, "His inaction in organising an election" He was faced with a situation where a government facing a grass roots revolt had incited a level of citizen unrest and disobedience where it was not possible to organise an election - PTP must take responsibility for that in it illegal, unconstitutional and arguably undemocratic push to gain a significant personal advantage for the Prime Minister brother. In the process it had betrayed not only the opposition but its own supporters. The decision to bring on a election in that environment rests squarely with the PTP - they dissolved parliament not Somchai, He advised against running the election but PTP insisted resulting in an election that was annulled and a massive waste of taxpayers' money 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thait Spot Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 if you kick a dog don't piss and moan if it bites you, if you play with fire don't complain if you get burned, If you insult a person then be prepared to get something back, History teaches us you can repress, marginalize, and insult people for so long, sooner or latter they will stand up, and then, you reap what you sow... Theres no point looking beyond who started the altercation - PTP and the red shirts. Bullying civil servants is disgraceful behaviour. Straight from the teachings of Mugabe. The comments from the EC were I'll advised but incredibly accurate as time has shown. Who did the EC repress or marginalise?

He has stuck to the rules and the legislation. It is that independence from how the UDD and PT want these rules to be interpreted as that causes the UDD fury.

I was lucky enough to miss the fallout from their actions however two people I know who we're directly affected were a doctor and a friend who's mother passed away in nz and they were both stranded in Sweden. Why should the world go on hold because of thai ploltics? Thanks for responding. I do indeed recall 2008, the airport-closures caused disruption to some of my in-laws on their holiday too, but I still wouldn't describe it as "utter disaster" for "the world", more of a local difficulty in one country for a few weeks or months. These things happen in Thailand from time to time, as in 2009 in Pattaya or 2010 & 2013 in Bangkok. Maybe my world-view encompasses more than one minor S.E.Asian country ? There are worse places to be stranded than Sweden, I lived there for a couple of years, and I'm not sure how problems in Thailand would prevent one from catching an urgent flight to New Zealand ? The world doesn't "go on hold because of thai politics", which was the point I was trying to make. But perhaps we're getting off-topic or too personal. Would you agree, that the local reds ought perhaps to apologise, to the airport-staff and passengers, who may have been frightened or intimidated by their actions ? Since they were nothing to do with the object of their ire, and who perhaps wasn't there anyway, re-reading the OP ? 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boomerangutang Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 I, for once, find myself agreeing with the Red, Shirts. They are not rude, low and wild. They are already beyond that. The proper adjectives should not be this mild. Some animal descriptions come to mind! the 3rd adjective; 'wild' should not be used for Red Shirts. Granted, the word 'wild' can mean various things, but Reds might take it as a compliment, as in; "the biker gang was wild" or "the wild west." Wild can also mean not-domesticated, such as natural forests. In that sense, there is nothing wild in Thailand. The whole country is rice fields, other agriculture, fallow or dirt fields, and villages/cities - every square meter. Nature has lost every battle against Thais, for the past 500 years.
