Don't think you'll need to assassinate him - just take out his duracell bateries

Or mix up his pills

Thailands royal palace says 87-year-old King Bhumibol Adulyadej has recovered from a lung infection that had required him to be fed intravenously and use a machine to aid his breathing.

..... Well fuck.

 

Who wants to fly with me to Thailand and assassinate the old bastard?

 

 

Patience, patience Grasshopper. Remember Cardinal Francis George? The King will soon drop like a ripe piece of fruit.

No, they seem to think a lot of him in Thailand. I'm sure they'll pick him up.

I'm not sure that's entirely true. There's a law in Thailand where you'll receive a custodial sentence if you speak out about the monarchy. Perhaps it's not that people think highly of him, but more that they're afraid to say what they truly think.

What happens if you refuse to sing the national anthem?

 

Interesting - Thailand has a National Anthem and a Royal Anthem. National Anthem still played twice a day I understand. Wiki indicates - though it's a dead link - that a citizen faced lese majeste charges for failing to stand for the Royal Anthem in 2008.

Apparently the link didn't stand for the Royal Anthem.

One of the recent high-profile suspects of violating the lesémajeste law is now dead, suicide by hanging in his cell, or so they say:

King Bhumibol Adulyadej makes rare appearance. In television footage released Monday by the palace he is seen swearing in judges at a Bangkok hospital where he has been staying.

Palace officials did not give any further details of the king's health on Monday.

Well, I guess my following statement will qualify. I don't care. I don't think Thailand's authorities monitor this forum for content offending to their monarch, but should they do, I don't think they'll start legal procedures against foreigners they cannot reach. I don't intend to visit their, it must be said, attractive country.

 

I don't care about king Bhumibol. I don't love him, I don't hate him, I'm indifferent. I dislike monarchy as a form of government, but that changes little in the way I appreciate ruling monarchs: I care not. As for king Bhumibol's health: may it be as good as can be expected and he live as long as he wishes.

 

I leave you with the thought that critical of the government is not the same as lese majeste.

Back in the early ninties when I worked for a certain Nationalised Coal mining organisation we had some Chinese interns with us for a few months and they would spend time with us in the labs. Of course working from British Coal and criticizing the government of the day went hand in hand but this poor Chinese lad used to sit listening to us very nervously watching the door all the time. He later said that he was shocked about how we talked about our Government all the time in critical terms, people who do that in China ( he hesistated looking for the right word) .....disappear.

 

Made me think about the freedoms we have that we take for granted.
