Thaksin lovers assault gays

Red threats call off gay march

Chiang Mai - The second Gay Pride Parade here was called off late Saturday evening after a stand-off with a group of "Rak Chiang Mai 51" red-shirted demonstrators who were objecting to the public event.

The parade started from Buddha-sathan and was to head towards the Night Bazaar and end at the Tawan Trendy Mall, but organisers decided to call it off fearing violence.

Earlier in the evening, about 30 red-shirted protesters had confronted the organisers, forcing them to dismantle the stage erected near the mall to welcome the parade.

About 30 red-shirted protesters went to the Tawan Trendy Mall where a stage had been erected to welcome the Gay Pride Parade, scheduled to march from the Buddhasathan towards the Night Bazaar and to the mallThe protesters launched verbal attacks through a megaphone saying the event tarnished the city's reputation. They also reacted angrily to remarks made by the organisers that the "Rak Chiang Mai 51" group was acting like thugs.

"Rak Chiang Mai 51" are getting a bit of a nasty reputation. They were involved in a punch up at the railway station a couple of weeks back.

^Agreed, and exactly the type of people you don't want on your team. Remember back in the fun old days of the PAD rallies/protests/takeovers, all the press and posts on TD given over to the thuggish tactics of the guards. I don't remember reading anything about any pro-dictatorship gays, or any pro-PAD gays. Rak Chiang Mai 51 should probably pipe down a bit.

Hmmm. Thuggish group acts thuggish, responds to criticism of said thuggery with more thuggish behavior.

What is with faggots wanting to march and tell the world they are gay, you don't see groups of hetrosexuals organising marches to tell everyone they are straight.

Well, if anything, they're a mixed and diverse lot.

^^I also don't see homosexuals trying to criminalize and prosecute homosexual behavior and sexual relations, homosexuals beating the shit out of heterosexuals for fun, nor homosexual Christians telling their hetero brethren they're going to hell.
