The sad fact is that the less deserving a government is of respect the more important these shows of respect are to it.

Re: I've Wondered What'd Happen If You Didn't Stand Up

I still think it's kind of nice to see everyone in sync now and then...

...the whole borg/brainwash/thinkferyrself thing aside.

Rugged individualism also has it's idiocies and it's despair, doesn't it?
are y'all so enlightened and liberated by the way your society taught you?

I mean, that's what we're mostly banging all this over the head with, is it not?

or did you want Thais to have the kind of perfect balance we've never seen before back home......

Re: I've Wondered What'd Happen If You Didn't Stand Up

i was alone. it was an experiment. only ever did it once. in no way was it an act of disrespect to either the country nor the king. rather an attempt to answer the question the o.p. put forward.

5555 When you said, "I never stood up once." I took it to mean, "not once did i ever stand up."
