Pictures of a Different Malaysia
Three different rallies (bar council, bersih, hindraf), 2 police crackdowns in the last two months. And probably the only reason our boys in blue didn't fire teargas during the bar council march was for fear of getting their asses sued by a thousand lawyers. Which brings me to a few pictures I found while reading some blogs. Hope I'm not infringing any copyright laws by reproducing them here.
Anyone wanna tell me we ain't a police state yet? What happened to Voltaire's "I may not agree with what you do, but I will defend to death your right to do it?"
Arresting and brutalizing peaceful protesters is shameful.
Firing teargas into a temple is shameful.
Spinning and telling lies to the people who put their trust in you to run the country is shameful.
But I guess that word really does describe our government doesn't it? That one word: shameful.
