Thanks, opebo. I'm still waiting on a response by someone who is favorable towards Thaksin, but good info nonetheless.
Thaskin is corrupt but the and Yingluck was stupid for thinking she'd be able to pass an amnesty bill. But, the Yellows have been looking for a chance to disrupt the very stable government for a long time and this was their chance. The yellows are rich opportunists who couldn't give two sh**ts about the will of the Thai people.
I'm off to Thailand in 3 days should be fun to see how Bangkok is while I'm there. Hopefully no sh**t goes down at the airport.
Also if Yellows do come to power, the Reds will just do what they did in 2010 again.
