    You're completely ignoring the benefit of the result.
    Another critique of the government's lists was made by Charan Pakdithanakul, secretary to the Supreme Court president, who said that, "People may take one look at the death toll and hail the government, but if you scrutinize the names of those killed, there's not a single big-time dealer."[24]

    Of course it would be horrifying for me and if I lost any family member but I would probably look at the reasons behind the event and even hate and blame the drug world and the evil bastards who control and work in it even more.

    It does not qualify as a "war", that's just rhetoric. It is a fight against crime for which civil rules of conduct and criminal law apply.

    Yeah right, like anyone on this forum needs my help in dismissing the laughable 'arguments' of the right-wingers on the forum. The collective IQ count would embarrass any self respecting sea-snail. Which really makes the way they hunt in packs on here, whilst understandable, not only laughable but almost pitiable too. Almost.

    What's this got to do with children being killed by police in Thailand?

    Of course not, 'big-timers' are connected and protected. Which makes this so-called War on Drugs a fatal exercise in hypocrisy.

    If police go out of their way to intentionally kill woman and children then they are themselves evil in their own right. There would be no arguement for me and to have them put down.

    Moreover in any fight against organized crime innocent people will suffer along the way and unfortunately that's the way the world turns.

    2003. That was nearly 6 years ago wasn't it?
    Nothing came of the enquiry so time to get over it.

    Waging your own personal war against "the war against drugs" that happened nearly 6 years ago is a bit obsessive.

    What exactly did you do to stop it back then Mid?

    I'd like to see them support a similar war on corruption , a scourge that destroys more lives than drugs.
    What about alcohol?
    Its said to cost more lives than all the illegal drugs put together.

    Second thoughts, better scratch that one.

    No not forget it. But going on and on about it in a personal crusade when there is sweet FA you can do to change the past is a bit weird.

    Have you ever thought about investing in a time machine so you can go back and actually make a difference? Get over it man, its history. If the same scenario ever comes up again you will have your chance to intervene. BTW, what exactly did you do about it 5 years ago? Too busy with other things or what?

    Must be slow news days in Burma. Get off your pony, Mid. Life ain't fair, people and governments make bad decisions, and sh*t happens. If we followed libtard policies, the rebels, terrorists, despots and their ilk would rule the world, with all of you lot cowering in corners crying for your rights. Move to Canada -- bladdy murderers, druggies, rapists, thieves and what not are treated like royalty while the victims are left to feel like they are to blame.
    Take up the Congo or Nigeria cause, Mid. It should make you feel better.

    ^ You know nothing about me Mid, but I can safely assume you are not a mother. You take up all these causes but I wonder where you think the money and support is going to come from. I admire your humanitarian concerns, but I often question your lack of common sense. I wonder if you only eat dead and rotting foods coz you think you will hurt a fruit or vegetable if you pick it.

    This whole War on Drugs is a creation of the law and order types to line their pockets, as well as promoting their own job security.

    Legalize, regulate, educate--just like all the other "vices".

    Yea. War on terror is better. Bigger and better in every way. Thaksin was just a copycat pussy who didn't have the balls to go off and take out some bad guys in another country. Collateral damage? Well you got to expect that when you are fighting on the side of righteousness. Dam drug pushers in Thailand. Why pussyfoot around shooting them with hand guns? Just bomb the shit out of those SOBs. Show em who's boss. Dam whining libby commy sympathisers. Bomb the lot of those suckers too.

    That's right, the people in the villages and districts where drug-pushers flourish are obviously supporting them, since they do nothing to stop it.
    Shouldn't be surprised when they get the shit bombed out of them.

    Besides, where would all the money and support for humanitarian concerns about innocent children being shot, due process and other looney Leftie PC mumbo-jumbo come from?

    Would you blame the cops if your helmetless child fell off a moto?
    Just curios. Have you told your family, how you feel about them ?
