Royalist wants Miss Universe Thailand punished for ‘insulting’ flag

Nothing infuriates social conservatives as much as a confident woman in possession of her sexuality, and mixing haughty sex appeal with a national symbol has driven one royalist into a seizure of outrage.

Sonthiya Sawasdee vowed to file a legal complaint this afternoon at the Bangkok Metropolitan Police Bureau against Miss Universe Thailand for allegedly violating three sections of the 1979 Flag Act in a promo image.

Sonthiya, a staunch royalist, alleges that Anchilee Scott-Kemmis desecrated the sacred symbol in an image showing her astride the Chao Phraya River atop the flag’s colors – a no-no among the foot-shame fixated – despite it being an obvious digital background.

These ultra-hardliners are just as bad as religious extremists ... and it seems the country is being pushed down that path.

Surely there are more pressing issues facing Thailand than someone stepping on a flag ... wait, she's not really stepping on the flag - I wonder if the numpty knows its a digital background.

Not even a real flag. It's digital so she's not stepping on anything. As you say Buksi, there are much more important issues.
