Thread: Thai elections 2011-Thai PM sets stage for tough election

I didn't say it was OK, just that when Thaksin used his cops for the job they killed thousands, which isn't their job - u know.

Yeah... Because they're *sure* to be completely impartial and unbiased, right?

Do you actually *read* the drivel that you write?

Are you a complete idiot? Rhetorical question, of course you are. You are proving it right here with this post.

Watching the polling station to make sure the ballot boxes are not tampered with does not require impartiality.

All over the Thai language press. I read several examples in Khao Sod today.

Far more impartial and truthfull than the usual drivel that's pumped out in the media here.

Correct...

However "gerbil" our resident furry cretin has fleeting moments of inspiration (not very often I admit) usually when he's on the toliet having a dump.

Ignore him / her it's just another case of yellow fever!

It is not the army's job to deal with these issues, especially the ISOC side, especially only in selected regions where people don't vote the way the army wants... But, remembering the money given to ISOC and their statements about 're-educating' the red shirt supporters, it's not surprising.

& it's not surprising that you think it's okay...

You're right that it shouldn't be on the army to handle these matters.
And Thaksin set a nice little modern standard when he gave the generals their new role , taking on some of the BiB's responsibilities.

Do we remember Thaksins Tak Bai incident? More killed in one day than during the 2 month siege by the reds in 2011. (did I hear a gasp from all the red fanatics?)
AHRC Thailand ~ Tak Bai Narathiwat

It shouldn't be on the army to handle these things because then things go ugly.
But since our beloved BiB can't do anything but collecting 200 baht beer money the government is left with no options.

The thai government should be blamed for not funding and requiring the policeforce to handle these things. And that blame should be shared equally by the Thaksin, Junta, Somchai and Abhisit governments.

Tak Bai incident... oh well back in time again and over and over. Thaksin killing all those people? You sure he was not killing all those children (less than year of age) in Belgian Congo?

Thai Police is not corrupt to core, actually. There are good policemen and women around. Maybe you fear them, for, possible reasons include but are not limited to, working illegally, not having legal driving license or id, being illegal as a criminal, being too high on yaba.

Almost a direct quote from an earlier post I made in response to you. I understand that plagiarism is your modus operandi and I know you have great difficulty telling the difference between what you wrote and what smarter and better-informed people wrote but I would appreciate it if you you didn't plagiarise from me.

I find it amusing to do so and I wont stop.

At least you finally admit you're a plagiarist, as well as exposing (if something so obvious can actually be exposed) your stupidity and immaturity.

Quoting myself.

Unlike the narcotics drive the insurency is a matter for the military. Not saying it has been handled well.

Unfortunately Tak Bai was a protest, a demonstration. You know.. just like the UDD one?
The demonstrators weren't armed (except maybe a few) and so it should have been the police handling that protest.

However, that you managed to quote yourself really impressed me.

And nostromos comment is a quality one as well. Claming that Thaksin killed the people at Tak Bai is as ignorant as claiming that Abhisit ordered the killings in 2010.

The cops killed 1,000's in a few months.

Killing drug dealers is a good thing. How many were and are killed in US war on drugs.

Khao Sod is a newspaper. 10 Baht I believe, available at tens of thousands of news stands all over Thailand, as are many other newspapers and magazines. Your rather bizarre belief that only what's on the net counts goes some way to explaining your abysmal ignorance.

Possibly Khao Sod and others are available on the net, I don't know. I'm one of those people who uses multiple information sources and likes to spend at least some of his spare time drinking coffee and reading magazines, books, and newspapers.

I am a bit confused if you mean I mean I think Thaksin killed people or you think I think you think I think you think?

Now Thaksin could not possibly have killed those people. If he sent an order to kill 1000s of Thais it would not have been followed. Orders would have been goind up and down. In short: Yellow propaganda
(NO LM)

That was the Army. Are you seriously naive enough to believe that the army has ever been under the control of a non-military PM? I have no doubt that Thaksin couldn't give a good god-damn about what what happened at Tak Bai but if you seriously think those deaths were the result of an order from the PM rather than the Thai Army behaving as the Thai Army has always behaved then you're a fool.

I don't know were you got your reading skills but please try my post once again.

Specifically the sentence "It shouldn't be on the army to handle these things because then things go ugly.".

That sentence implies the army is to blame. Not the government. That's how it was intended when I wrote it.

I am wondering about how it is that you could missunderstand it so completely.

I'm sure you're not a fool.

There was an insurgency. You don't decide incident by incident this is insurgency this is only a demonstration.

Forgive him, Bob. His sources have become quite limited.

What a bleeding circus.
The actual political activity, the press, and the subsequent discussion and debate.

So it is only stupid and immature when I do it? What is it when you do it? Or are you exposing your hypocrisy (again)?
