Title: The King and I

This tells me something happened to that nice little constitutional monarchy they've had. You know, the whole king of Siam thing.

You mean to tell me there was a coup in Thailand 2 years ago, and now everything is going crazy? Military rule, or something close? Where was this on the news????

A major country... well, a significant one anyway... has it's rather interesting form of government breakdown, and nobody talks about it???

The media picks certain things to obsess over, and the rest of the world can melt down and turn to ashes and they don't seem to give a rip. >:(

So, maybe the king is still in power??? The rest of the government is gone, and the military has taken over? Looks that way.

Again, where was this on the news? I guess it's not newsworthy till something happens to the king, right? ::)

I looked up
Thailand coup May 2014
I saw where the news Did cover it,but, like you, I don't remember it. Is that because they ran it in the ground until we just ignored it, or they were constantly on something else? Dangfiknow.

Ehh... We usually remember stuff that's run into the ground, don't we?

It looks like Thailand is used to this sort of thing. They're pretty up in arms about the thing, and there throwing people in jail over there for just about anything that can be construed as a political protest, even so much as eating sandwiches and wearing red shirts. ;D ::) :-? :( I guess tourists should be kinda careful. My red Liberty University shirt would get the cops over there upset faster than anything, especially if I'm caught eating a PB&J. Funny, ain't it? ;D

Here's something Justin is gonna love... What exactly keeps us from having this same thing happen to us?

I don't know. If I didn't remember it, how could I?
Ignoring and erasing BS that's been repeated until you're sick of it might be possible.
