Human Shields

Kids are really cute, even this cute little human shield.

I guess my own disgust over the PAD's shameless violence and its mob rule over Thailand has become a focus of posts lately.

I keep thinking that each post will be the last on this topic but, each day, PAD's mob violence grows more brazen and more irrational.

It is usually the violence committed by the PAD militia but the real blame rests with the leaders of PAD.

Fascists like Sondhi Limthongkul and Major General Chamlong Srimuang should not only be held accountable for the crime and violence that they have encouraged and nurtured through their endless vitriolic and brainwashing propaganda, but they should be held accountable for using women and children as human shields.

Although the police have demonstrated patience and seem to be trying to avoid further bloodshed, PAD's leaders have been calling for all out war.

And in the same breath that PAD leaders call for war, they encourage women and children to fill in the ranks of their increasingly dangerous brinkmanship with the government.
