Popular Post blazes Posted April 24, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted April 24, 2014 These kids truly are idiots and deserve whatever scorn is heaped on them. That being said, before the pro red TVers start whining about the 'elites' and the 'ammarts' and how the law doesn't apply to them or their kindred blah blah blah blah. Please be reminded that BOTH sides have snotty bratty kids who are above the law. For example, the alcoholic minister whose son shot dead a policeman and got away with it. the usual "two wrongs make a right" idiot's argument. This sort of creepy-crawly obsequious attitude to those with "power" is how you explain why so many countries in the world face anger and hostility from those who are treated like scum. In this case, the anger comes from the "red shirts of Issan" who are "too dumb to be given the vote".. Who can blame Issan anger when attitudes like that dominate the elite political scene? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pii Kate Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 Ahh, ok, so this is the PDRC.. I'd come to the next "final push" rally, but I can't find a good spot to park my Bentley. Then obviously you don't know the right people. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From your link. stage organizers Chinnaworn Boonyakiat and Tanat Thanakitamnuay. A stage organizer is someone who makes a living of renting out stages in my book, not sure if that is the same as a protest leader You are clutching at straws here, they are clearly involved in the organisation. So what ? They are clearly not the leaders, but they maybe sponsors and even provide the stage for free, but I take my hat of for them even more in that case because they are supporting a good cause. I'm sure Suthep has supporters that are 10 times as rich as these guys, and I admire them for giving him the much needed support, as he's weeding out a bunch of criminals that are governing this country currently. Or do you suggest that supporters of Suthep's mission only can exist of paid for poor farmers, like the UDD ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post paddyjenkins Posted April 24, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted April 24, 2014 The more capital is concentrated into the hands of fewer of fewer, who then pass it onto their children, the more a country is dominated by small numbers of osbscenely rich but feckless and mindless individuals who have done essentially nothing for their inherited wealth and influence. In the end, as in France during the 17th cehntury, people rebel, after they've had enough. Inequality is a problem in many countries, but atleast in the West for example, the super wealthy are often quite humble and philanthropic, Bill Gates is a good example. This isn't at all the case in any Asian country I know of, where generation after generation of the offspring of the uber wealthy have become more and more osbscenely arrogant and vulgar. The rumbling are already there in Thailand and I sense some of these bags of parasitic scum will get what they reserve. Yes, keep rubbing your wealth in everyone's faces, keep that self entitled smirk, but you are building up a huge bill in karma space and that bill is going to come due at some point. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natway09 Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 You all know if you are rich you can hit a policeman & drag him 200metres along the road & walk away scott free, oh sorry pay a bit to the family "death money" Anybody know where he is, still living it up in the singapore Casino, he should be extradited. but he is rich OK If I had done that to a policeman they would have thrown away the key by now, It's called rich justice 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post bkk75 Posted April 24, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted April 24, 2014 This is exactly why some of the most wealthy men in America give their wealth to charity. Not their kids. Take Bill Gates for example.......I find this behavior disgusting as d most wealthy people. They are not an example we want to portray and are usually not as wealthy as everyone thinks they are...What did bill gates do? He has declared he will leave most or all his massive wealth to charity. He has done his part as a responsible parent by providing his children with good tools (ie education) so they are prepared to find their own success. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rreddin Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 Carry on, blaming the Thai moron youngsters and forget what's happening in your own countries on a much bigger scale. I believe there are forums in our respective home countries on which we may comment on such behaviour "back home". This forum is, as you have failed to spot, about Thai news. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MobileContent Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 It doesn't matter. Their are some red supporters in Bangkok that too drive Ferraris but keep low profiles ( FOR THE MOMENT) Today I took a taxi to Don Muang and the taxi driver said the problem with Thaksin is that he has no respect for the king. and the royal institution and he too said that the red's will mobilise next month and we are in for a lot of problems. This little brother (Pee Nong) is someone that comes from Isaan which I call my home and we talk throughout the journey in Lao/Isaan and it was a great talk for the 40 minutes the trip took. Lets just have a new election and I wish the Shinwatra's and Suthep's don't participate in it and lets see who is the next PM of the Kingdom of Thailand and I pray to Buddha that the next PM will be accepted by everyone.

connda Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 Given adequate time, most modern free-market societies devolve into fascism. Thailand's well on it's way. Considering these boys have probably never done a productive day's work to earn their own money, chances are they will 'be placed' into positions of political power by their families and elite friends for lack of anything better to do. So yes, they probably will be Thailand's Future leaders. It's the way of the world. Nothing new under the sun. And to be honest, it won't make a bit of difference.

Agree, inequality is a massive issue, and not just here in Thailand. I was reading a news article the other day that stated the US middle class is no longer the largest in the world, and that is a major cause for concern.

rreddin Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 Most of the poor kids and those parked with grandparents in Isan's villages are not smarter, than these sh-Kids. Whoever has the slightest hope for this country's future- think again... How on earth would anybody be in a position to actually know a smart kid in Isaan? They are all deemed stupid from birth and educated with that mindset. Many are plain stupid, I agree, yet many are gifted with commonsense and improvisation skills I've not seen elsewhere. Recently, I was asked to speak to a local girl in the province of Udon Thani, by the way chrisrazz, that is in Isaan. She had been to the local schools and wanted to discuss her career options. By the way her father is a local lawyer I know. She spoke extremely good English. Her exam grades were good enough to get her accepted in Australian and European universities for both engineering and medicine. In the end, she choseto read medicine and although the university was not in the UK, the entire course was taught in English. She is not an isolated example. My neice has qualifications to go to a Thai university but has chosen to do her higher education in the USA, where the course will be taught in English. I have met a number of my neices school friends. They are intelligent young people all of whom have achieved the grades required to go to university. They all attended local schools. My stepson, from Isaan, attended university in Bangkok. Three more of my nieces from Isaan have graduated from university - two of them are nurses. So, I actually know several smart kids in isaan and I doubt that I am alone in that. If it came to a choosing who was the brightest between you and these Isaan kids, you come a far, far distant second in a two horse race. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
