    D5 rontorre, The article started out with a mis-type (f being below r on the key board. Just sent an alert to BP (not for posting), but it was posted. Others also noted and I guess that's why they clicked like...hope that explanation makes your day.

    This is Thailand's future as the government is too busy with the charter to overhaul the education system and teach these hoodlums right from wrong. Why are they allowed to cover their faces? I think they and their parents should be shamed in public for committing these crimes. A photo of a bunch of punks in hoods isn't worth anything. Stiff, stiff prison terms need to be mandated before these punks decide to start killing innocent people.
