The junta itself isn't at all clear cut in what it's doing. Ask a silly question; you get a silly answer.

I may be wrong, but I think the public would like to see criminals in jail. How can anyone blame them for being cynical, they have seen criminals of every stripe released on bail, some for decades. The Red Bull heir is classic case, in just about any other country a cop killer would be in jail, or executed. Here the cops fellow workers refused to release evidence to prosecutors, law enforcement, my -ss.

Very nice speech but the OP is speaking about amnesty for political offenders.

Political crimes or crimes against property, violent crimes, what ever you got. Don't you think people would like to see offenders in jail?

Is amnesty another English word non existent in the Thai vocabulary. like commonsense and respect?

I think you are right. They are sick of seeing politicians and other wealthy and well connected people committing crimes with impunity. Those who talk about letting politicians off the hook for the sake of reconciliation are merely serving vested interests as usual. There is much more money to be made by letting the wealthy avoid prison that sticking them in it.

If he wants to know tell him , No one. Well what else, you are supporting people who have broken the law otherwise.
