It's half past midnight on Saturday morning in Bangkok, and the Bangkok Post has already confirmed 7 dead and 101 injured for the past 24 hours - increasing as this post goes live - with seven hours left to go before dawn.
Postured machismo and big talk have given way to panic and pandemonium over an entire square mile of the Big Mango tonight; rubber bullets, rocks and slingshots replaced by live ammunition, molotov cocktails, M79 grenades and home made bombs. It's a train wreck in slow motion, it's just getting started... and already it's enough.
Enough. Please.
