Respect

"You can build a throne with bayonets, but you can't sit on it too long."
Boris Yeltsin (of all people!)

For a few hours, fear and helplessness seem to have changed sides. But the situation is getting extremely tense. The SLORC must respond to the challenge, and quickly, or falter. However, these few days of protest are an unbearable chink in the junta's armor. The fiction that they and their goons enjoy any kind of support or authority is gone. They do not own fear any more. They are left with only violence.

Most likely, this will end in bloodshed.
