  1. 0:01 Yup. Definitely caused by tear gas and water cannons.

  2. AFksAPIEN Basic human rights? Sure, I believe you. Setting old people on fire, and throwing bricks and petrol bombs at officers are totally not violations of human rights themselves. Double standard. What “major” international laws have the HKPF broken? Oh, shooting tear gas in an enclosed area? Is that it? Yeah, that alone deserves foreign intervention, guns blazing...it’s not as if the rioters/protestors are as bad... You think the UN can save Hong Kong from itself? Look at what a great job they did in Libya!

  3. AFksAPIEN Those “crimes” seem awfully specific to be “international laws”, you’re obviously not just saying they’re international laws to fit your agenda, clearly... 1. The cops need to protect their identities as well, moreover officer’s kids are being harassed due to bullying both online and at school just because their parent is a police officer. And double standard again, rioters/protestors wear their masks, so why can’t the police choose not to identify themselves? 🙂 2. Uhh. Since when did weapons have “safety guidelines”? Are there “safety guidelines” for molotovs and bricks? I’d love to hear them. 3. Are officers NOT allowed to enter hospitals anymore? So called private property...better than vandalising and or completely trashing them just because they have origins from the Mainland, at least...”sorry, wrong bank.” 4. What are you even talking about? Unprotected police dogs? TG? 5. Agreed. I assume you’re talking about the bamboo stick incident. The police need to be more professional, and incidents like these need to be investigated. Then again, there isn’t any direct proof that the officer had malicious intent. The police claimed the protestor dropped the stick, and the officer put it back in his bag AFTER the protestor was arrested. It could go either way. Who knows. But definitely not an excuse to jump to conclusions. 6. There is zero proof that the police have attempted in blocking ambulance or fire department services. Even their respective departments have admitted that the police have done no such thing. Besides, if anyone’s blocking the road, then it’s the rioters with their homemade “road blocks”. 7. Arbitrary? Give me one case. Link to a credible news source. Multiple would be better. 8. Here we go again... 9. Again, no direct proof that the white shirts were hired by anybody. BUT. The case seems very fishy (government official shaking hands with a “triad” member). An in-depth investigation is needed. 10. Police attacking firemen, medics and social workers? Proof? Civilians, probably, but I doubt intentionally. Yeah, the “press”, if you get in the way of a officer, of course you’re going to get hit, what do you expect? You know what you signed up for. Anymore “international laws” I should know of?

  5. What do you mean “trying to do the same”? Hong Kong and Macau are already Chinese territory, and Taiwan is pretty much untouchable as long as America has its military bases in the South China Sea. Clearly delusional...what’s next? China is going to occupy the rest of the planet like it did with Tibet? And it’s not China that is being affected, it is HONG KONG that is being affected. The people trying to live out their lives don’t deserve this, they don’t require your “democracy”, or your “freedom”. Now they’re leaving for other countries for their children’s education and more stable jobs. My family included. Feel free to riot, Hong Kong is finished anyways. The “freedom fighter rebels” will get what’s coming for them in the end.

  6. They’re aren’t rich, it’s because they can afford to destroy anything that isn’t theirs.
