  Bubba - The broadcast can be heard at http://bit.ly/6cqniB thanks to ASTV.
  
  There is also a transcript in Thai.
  
  The court however rejected the arrest warrant.
  
  Akara - Do not feel bad it happens to all of us. One has to remember the Post and other media outlets have the final say in what they publish or broadcast. You probably won't find many pro Abhisit comment on Northern Community radio stations either. I also think it depends on who is the editor on shift. Some strong comments I have made have been published when I thought the would not be and some very mild have been axed.

  THIS GUSTED #9: That pretty much its the nail on the head.
  
  The PAD carried out violence (and in fact they did also provoke it verbally) but nothing happened and nothing will.
  
  The whole thing is again another sham. The actually broadcast in question can not be heard.
  
  You accuse someone, ban the evidence and convict someone without the people ever knowing what really happened.
  
  You just tell the people they cannot read or hear something for reasons of state security, etceteras. It worked for decades here and although the military is losing its grip in some parts of the country it is still the most powerful force to be reckoned with.
  
  I am surprised there is not the usual huge amount of anti-Taksin rhetoric here.

  Divisiveness spreads like fungus. It attacks not only Thais but also farangs. Now we have red and yellow farangs.

  I sent many post on Thai political. I noticed that when my comments criticized Abisit the Bangkok post never accept mine, but once i try ti criticized on Thaksin the post quick accepted it and post within a minute. WHY? is the bangkok post is now standing for A bisit? has has has poor Thaksin. Good man never die anyway. I will keep eyes open whether this comment would be post or not.

  To all the genius mind out there, if someone plan to kill a person, they dont go out and publicized their plan, they keep it a secret and execute when the time comes. Much like the assassination attempt on Sondhi L or the 2006 coup detat.
  
  Now, what happened to the exactly the same threat that the PAD made throughout their 3 years of terror movement?

  I did not have the attitude of "what about the PAD, you didn't spake them" when I commented or give my opinions and conmentaries here. Law must be enforced without fear and favour. We simply do not see it happening at the moment. If you want our legal system counted and respected by Thais and international business communities, then cases committed by PAD and those who used them as tools must be included in opinions and comments.
  
  The examples you brought out here on police summoned PAD to answer charges are cases that should be dealt with immediately and do not required a prosecutor for their arrest. These were criminal activities in broad day light. Just like a rape crimainl case committed before the eyes of the wgole world.
  
  I do not use abusive words and phrases to describe peoples who care to give their opinions and comments here.

  It seems like Police want Red leader to escape. Why announce the anticipated arrest days ahead of time? This will only give Petchawat time to pack his bags and cross the border to Cambodia, which is the promoter and harborer of Thai fugitives.

  I was not comapring.Just asking the law enforcement agencies a question. Laws should be enforced equally without fear or favour. If you want Thailand legal system respected and counted by Thais and interneational business communities, then we better arrest whosoever that have committed crimes and go against the constitutiion and charged them. Many crimes do not required prosecutor - violent invasion of government house, airports, armed intrusiion of TV station as examples.

  It is funny how quickly they are able to arrest a simple minded red shirt leader, while the government never seem to be willing to follow up on the real car bomb that went off during a yellow shirt demonstration. That was wiped pretty quickly under the carpet. Do I smell two sets of rules. Both should be handled even handed.

  To This gusted (Discussion 21).
  
  1. I can read pretty well, thank you.
  
  2. I stand by my statement. While you may have denounced the announcer in your discussion 9, you immediately followed on with a rant about the PAD overthrowing an elected government, thus validating my contention in the posting.
  
  3. I do live in the Kingdom and I am certainly not naive. I may have a difference of opinion on the PAD than you do, but I don't continually bring that opinion to every forum as the cause of all the ills that beset Thailand today.
  
  4. It's know, not no.
