Protesters put royal picture in wrong spot

*Image captured from Thai PBS showing PAD thugs firing a handgun while one hoists a picture of the King. Vibhavadi Road November 25, 2008. The video can be seen here. *

From the Bangkok Post:

The United Front of Democracy against Dictatorship (UDD) has been condemned for placing a picture of Their Majesties the King and the Queen alongside an offensive slogan.

Its leaders could be charged with lese majeste.

The picture was placed next to a slogan reading "Privileged People ... Thief" in the background on the UDD's rally stage outside parliament yesterday.However, it was later removed from the stage.

Suriyasai Katasila, a coordinator of the People's Alliance for Democracy (PAD), deplored their action as disturbingly inappropriate.

I guess the above picture of a PAD thug shooting at people on the streets of Bangkok while a picture of the king is held behind him is not disturbingly inappropriate?
