Have you heard the one about the dangerous monk …?

The monks were beaten with the back of rifles. Taxi drivers are transporting the injured to nearby medical facilities, said the source, speaking on condition of anonymity.

Again we see peaceful protest met with violence.
Innocent people asking for equality treated as enemies.
Why?
Clearly a peace loving Budhist monk or nun is a very dangerous person!

Now the UN Security Council decides to meet.
Why not during the last 20 years of oppression?
Why not during the last 2 months of unrest and abuses?
Why not during the last 9 days of peaceful protest under threat?

Why does it take injury and violence before they even get together to THINK about what their response will be?

I pray that this time protest will work, that this time justice will prevail and that, this time, the rightful ruler of this nation will take her place.
