Reconciliation is a red herring

Please stop with all the reconciliation rubbish. It isn’t going to happen, nor has either side tried to make it happen.

The whole reason we are in this mess is because the police and law enforcement in general are a joke. We can go all the way back to Thaksin Shinawatra and his concealment of assets on Day 1. He shouldn’t even have been allowed to become prime minister. Since then we’ve had prolonged street protests that the police didn’t lift a finger to prevent. MPs have enjoyed immunity from the law and taken full advantage to act as shamefully as possible. 
There is only one way to move forward. Everyone involved in the current mess goes to court for their crimes and misdemeanours in chronological order. If they run away, let them be judged in their absence.
