In the popular Hunger Games series, the oppressed residents of District 12, often raised their hand in a three-finger salute - a gesture that began as a sign of gratitude and farewell, but soon evolved into a symbol of defiance. Now, the salute is being used by some Thai youngsters to show their displeasure with the military officials that have been ruling the country under martial law since they ousted the civilian government in May 2014. And just like the leaders of the dystopian society, Thailand's rulers are not too thrilled.

    I find that they use this to rebel, is simply crude. But, this is better than starting a civil war.... -_-

          Personally, I think they should have just ignored the salute ,but at the same time they should have at least looked into it. Still I don't speak for everyone so...yeah all the Hunger games movies are still pretty awesome. :)
