No more threats please – we’ve grown up!
It has been a very busy day for me because of my retarded internet connection. After two visits by two groups of technicians, I am now back in action! Imagine my horror when I clicked into Malaysiakini and read THIS ARTICLE.

Pandemonium erupted in the Penang state legislative assembly today when opposition leader Azhar Ibrahim warned that there would be a repeat of the May 13 riots if the people lost confidence in the authorities.
Commenting on the public criticism over the police shooting of teenager Aminulrasyid Amzah, Azhar (right) said that the army can take over from the police if the later does not enjoy public support.
He lambasted Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng’s constant criticism of Umno, which has three million members, for being corrupt.
Azhar also accused Lim of being anti-Malay and anti-Islamic for his attacks against Umno and Prime Minister Najib Razak.
“This is an insult to the Malays, don’t you think that there will be no Malay gangsters, or the Barisan Tiga silat group, who will come here and teach those who utter these words a lesson?” he threatened.
“And if you continue to insult the police and its chief, then let’s ask the army to take over,” he added.
This was followed by scores of demands from Pakatan Rakyat assemblypersons for Azhar to withdraw his statement, to which he obliged.
A motion was, nevertheless, later passed to refer him to the Rights and Privileges Committee for uttering seditious words and inciting ill-will among different races.
Azhar will go before the powerful committee on charges of seeking “to forment rebellion through his seditious remarks” and “to create hatred and hostility among the races”.
