When the UDD gave their ultimatum today that the House of Representatives be dissolved, to which Prime Minister Abhisit responded “No”, I bet you were all wondering what would be next. I mean, when you give an ultimatum it’s a case of either do-what-we-want-or-we-will-do-something-bad right? Wonder no more!
UDD leaders announced that they:
will take one thousand litres of blood donated by protesters and spill it around Government House on Tuesday, in retaliation for the government’s decision not to dissolve the House.
The drawing of blood will begin about 8am on Tuesday, Mr Natthawut said.
A total of one million cubic centimetres (cc) would be taken from 100,000 volunteers, including protest leaders.
This would be a symbolic action. Cabinet ministers would have to walk over the protesters’ blood when they enter Government House to work, he said.
Talk about bat-shit insane! A symbolic gesture would be to paint the road red (with paint), but if they’re planning to use real blood how exactly is that symbolic? I doubt they can get anywhere near the quantities they’re talking about anyway.
I’ve heard they’re looking for volunteer medical staff to assist with drawing the blood. M?
Thats just so… erm… brilliant? 1000 litres of blood, I wonder if it’ll happen? And if so, can’t wait to see the photos.
We’ll find out today!
