Reply to comment by Raalf in CNN ‘deeply regrets’ distress caused by report on Thailand nursery killings by darthatheos

Yeah, I've hear Thailand is not a good place to be jacking around in such a way as to put the King in a weird position publicly. You do some jail time for that stuff.

that's putting it mildly. Put a sticker on a painting of the king? 2 years in prison.

Even crazier: a 66-year old woman was jailed for 43 years for violating the law 29 times in sharing and posting content on social media.
