Live Firing Zone

The U.S. Embassy is closed... journalists are getting shot up... and the Thai government has announced a live firing zone--the area where Thai troops will open fire against anti-government protesters. "Closer to civil war than ever before," is how one expert puts it.

There's a state of emergency here in Chiang Mai, which means there's increased police presence on the streets, and they're able to crack down on gatherings of more than five people.
