Thailand: Regime Police Fire Rubber Bullets at Protesters HeadsRegime violence will only increase number, resolve of protesters sham elections being disrupted. Several protesters have been sent to the hospital as police began firing tear gas, rubber bullets, and using chemical-laden water fired from water canons at the Thai-Japanese Stadium in Din Daeng, Bangkok. Reports and images from the clashes indicate that police have been firing rubber bullets at the heads of protesters, an illegal method that will only escalate tensions and attract more protesters as was seen early December when protesters began overwhelming police barricades at one government building after another, including police stations, ministry buildings and Government House. Amid the desperate move by the regime, Election Commission officials who were using the stadium to carry out upcoming sham elections organized by the regime, in which only its party will be running in, were partially evacuated by helicopter. Other officials remain trapped as ongoing clashes continue. Meanwhile, last night, regime thugs sprayed some 20 bullets at the house of anti-regime leader, former Democrat Party MP Sathit Wongnongtoey. No injuries were reported, but indicates the same troubling pattern that preceded violence and death during previous protests, including the pro-Thaksin rally in 2010 in which Thaksin deployed some 300 professional mercenaries triggering bloodshed that would cost over 90 lives. The regimes notoriously violent red shirt supporters have issued threats earlier this week of a planned armed campaign to crush so-far peaceful protests if the regimes sham elections were disrupted. Proxy prime minister Yingluck Shinawatra symbolically holding office in place for her brother, convicted criminal, fugitive, mass murderer, billionaire Thaksin Shinawatra remains hundreds of miles away from the capital in the northern province of Chiang Mai, one of the last remaining strongholds of support for the regime.
