TOPSHOTS Thai opposition protesters wave national flags during a rally against a controversial political amnesty bill that has sparked mass anti-government protests, urging the country to "forgive" after years of civil strife, in Bangkok's financial district of Silom on November 6, 2013. Thousands of anti-government protesters have been gathering daily in Bangkok since lawmakers approved a controversial amnesty that could allow fugitive former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra to return.
