Thai protesters vow to return to streets after Friday clashes

Thailand will lose trust of foreign businesses operating there and they may move to other countries. I understand the king today is unpopular. Before in crisis, the former respected king played a great role to calm down the unrest. I am against the riot like demonstrations.

These young people are an inspiration. Ironic that we see Asians fighting for more democracy while Americans are fighting for less.

America has been there, has done that.The civil war to gain the republicans to power was on the 1860.

In this particular case America is going ahead Thai.

Patience must be running out with the recalcitrant authoritarians clinging like cowards to their power and privileges. If the ruling elite refuse the ballot demanded by the demonstrators, the Thai people will have to resort to revolution, the supreme democratic right of every people to remove tyranny of every ilk. Then it will have to be the bullet for, as Thomas Jefferson understood, the tree of liberty must be watered with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Why should the unelected be protected and allowed to control that which they have never earned?

Thailand needs to to be rid of autocrats and parasites...
