Cascara: Nobody likes rowdies and thugs. By deploying these pests in kampungs where ceramahs are being held, certainly Umno is going to lose support from the people.

They don't even have to hear what Opposition Leader Anwar Ibrahim or his team have to say. It will be a choice between a composed Pakatan Rakyat against a rowdy Umno-BN. Now choose.

Ksn: Let the Umno gangsters continue their ‘samseng' (gangster) methods. People watch, those who come for the ceramahs, the word will spread by word of mouth and the tactics will boomerang on Umno very severely.

Let them continue their mean strategies for their own destruction. They have lost even before the war has started, I mean elections.

Anonymous_5fb: What else can they do? How to debate if they can only bark?

Fair Play: Never in the history of Umno has the party faced such a real threat to its hegemony. So desperate times calls for desperate measures.

But here is the irony of it all. How can stone-age techniques work in a cyber-warfare environment?

Mamak Bendahara: Hasn't this been Umno's culture, right from Day One? Everything that they cannot take control, they talk about using the ‘keris'.

Is this the kind of people we want to continue voting into power? It's time to kick them out of Putrajaya.

Everyone who reads this should display the videos on Facebook or blogs, with these words: "It's time that we kick out Umno until they learn to be humble like PAS people."

OMG: Gangsterism and hooliganism are now allowed to flourish in Malaysia? The police do nothing? Can you imagine how emboldened these thugs will get knowing they can get away with such violent and aggressive acts?

Is this the Malaysia that BN promises? Is this the Malaysia you want to be associated with? We need change now before more people start to believe that this government will close its eyes to all their crimes and failings as long as they support Umno.

2CTS WORTH: At all costs and over crushed bodies! This is an indication of what the author of this infamous uttering means. Wallop the head to kill the snake.

Hmmmmmm: For future ceramahs, somebody should come better prepared to record all these and stream it live or upload it on YouTube.

Pay particular attention to the ringleader and the more "active" hooligans. Show their faces clearly. Shame them.

Anonymous: If you have ever been in a serious argument and the other party has lost hopelessly, not having any grounds to stand on, the last resort is to lose his temper (and hope to "win" the argument) by being more angry and fiercer than you.

Well, this is what it is... BN has no more legs to stand on; so this is the last resort before the 13th general election.

The inaction by the authorities clearly confirm that they are standing on BN's side, at least for the time being.

Tell the Truth: So now Umno is using their barbaric tactics to disrupt opposition ceramahs. These animals will always be animals. It is a sign of things to come.

If Umno loses the GE they will create trouble to warrant Najib Razak in calling for a state of emergency in the country. People of all races, wake up to the signs of the times!

Swkdayaks: This is where Malaysians have to discern and judge for ourselves who are leaders with moral and civic discipline.

The Umno guys are nothing but misfits and barbarians without even simple basic manners. That is why Malaysia is in a mess as we have been led by such people with such characters.

Umno is dead scared that their evil crimes will be known or exposed to the Malays and even to their ordinary Umno members.

If they are smart and capable people, they should advice Najib, their big boss, to have a public debate against Anwar. They should question Najib why he is scared to debate Anwar.

James Dean: Umno has learned from MIC how to put those misfits and bad hats to good use.

Blind Freddo: When I asked a Chinese friend if he planned to attend the rally on the day that Anwar was acquitted, he said he didn't believe in mob rule.

In reply, I said that a peaceful demonstration was democracy at work, not mob rule. Now I can point out to him what mob rule is really like.
