"Shall we continue to fight?" shouts one defiant Red Shirt to an angry crowd - "fight!" they cry, as videos of the army's brutal assault on the Red Shirts in May flicker on a projector. Now the emergency decree has been lifted, the Red Shirts have re-emerged in "Thaksin Town" - birth place of their main backer, former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra. Under the continuing ban on discussion of the ailing King, tensions have been simmering: "Thailand is a stupid country, we cannot say what we are thinking". Yet the presence of armed guards at the protests in May betrayed the movement's non-violent image. "Both sides are illiberal and have shown that they have anti-democratic tendencies". Despite the renewed protests, some hard-line Red Shirts remain in hiding. One woman on the run with a group of leading Red Shirts even alleges that the Thai government has assembled a Death List: "There were incidents we knew of in our circle, people were being hunted down". Speaking in disguise, one of the men she's hiding with says more violence is unavoidable: "the end of these problems in Thailand... it's civil war".
