Thaksin for sure or Samak arguably. One of the many weaknesses of democracy is that the people can vote to do away with democracy.

Except in Thailand, a coup was used to do away with democracy and the violence today in BKK is directly because of it.

Or had Thaksin and TRT already killed democracy with a one party system?? In any case, I am not defending the coup but don't want Thaksin's revenge to destroy the country.
