Hong Kong Police Fire Tear Gas At Thousands Of Protesters Opposing New China Law

On Sunday afternoon, crowds of protesters dressed in black gathered in Causeway Bay, a popular shopping district, to protest the proposed legislation. Protesters chanted slogans “Stand with Hong Kong,” “Liberate Hong Kong” and “Revolution of our times.”

The bill that triggered Sunday’s rally was submitted at China’s national legislative session on Friday. It is expected to be passed on May 28. It would bypass the city’s legislature and allow the Hong Kong government to set up mainland agencies in the city that would make it possible for Chinese agents to arbitrarily arrest people for activities deemed to be pro-democracy.

“I think the Hong Kong people have been betrayed by China, which has proved once again that you can’t trust it further than you can throw it,” Patten said in an interview with The Times of London.

CCP is dropping all pretense of honoring the joint declaration with its decision to force through the heinous national security measures. However, the actions of HKers show that they will not give up no matter what CCP throws at them. StandwithHonKong

Given the fair living standard of HKers, who’d love to be pepper sprayed, walking thru teargas and be batted by batons? Beijing’s increasing suppression and narrowing freedoms and autonomy of HK, dishonouring Joint Declaration and trampling core values of HK results in resistance

We deserve democracy and freedom!

The 'Sino-British Joint Statement' is an internationally valid document submitted to the UN Secretariat in 1985. But China flagrantly violated this international commitment. This is to betray HK and also betray the world.

Thank you for speaking up for HongKong and tell the truth to the whole world. What CCP is doing right now are showing their brutality and absolutely contemptible because they are breaking the promise to us. However, hongkonger will never surrender under the CCP force.

It shows that everyone in the world should not trust China. In their eyes, every international agreements were just a historical documents. StandWithHongKong CCP_is_terrorist ChinaLiedAndPeopleDied

The thoroughly breached Sino-British Joint Declaration ought to be a constant reminder to the free world: NEVER TRUST CCP. HongKong YouCantStopUs

The authoritarian CCP is once again overriding HK's legislature. The proposed laws will put HK under the CCP's complete control and censorship. HongKong is urgently calling for support and help from the international community. StandWithHongKong

The NationalSecueityLaw will strip Hong Kong's autonomy, CCP implement a new law bypassing the legislative council and that is not the way of separation of power works.😟Hongkongers will not give up fighting for freedom and democracy.💪💪 YouCantStopUs

There is no more “one country, two systems “. So Hong Kong people are still fighting for the democracy. YouCantStopUs StandWithHongKong

Freedom of assembly is promised in Basic Law but in reality HKSAR are using all kinds of ways to suppress protests. A demonstration has to be approved by HKPoliceTerrorists in order to be legal .This system is such absurd for a modern city. YouCantStopUs NationalSecueityLaw

To change the density of HongKong, we have to go protesting because we have no other choice. HongKongProtests

The CCP is never reliable and trustworthy, so we went onto the streets again to show the CCP and the world that we will never give up on our home🇭🇰. HongKongNeedsHelp HongKongProtests hongKongindependence

After China extradition bill, CCP once again proposed another evil law. There will be more and more evil law unless HK leaves CCP’s hands.

Stand with Hong Kong! HongKonger never give up!

And HKpoliceforce said that they are using weapons restrained

One can never trust China. China has continually failed to keep its promise in international agreements. The only consistent thing about China is its propensity to use violence to suppress pro-democracy voices AntiChinazi

CCPChina is unreliable and proven by history. HKPoliceTerrorists are hard-working assistants of the CCPChina, they use all inhumane methods for peace protesters SanctionHKpolice

Hong Kong is dying. Five or ten years later, there is no 'Hong Kong' any more, only a puppet of CCP. Anyone can help us... Hongkong Hongkongers fightforfreedom standwithhk

CCP want us Hong Kongers all die CCP_is_terrorist

HongKong is a very small place on earth. But then the world should actually take this as a lesson that NO ONE SHOULD EVER TRUST China. It’s a trap and they will eat you alive whenever they can, for sure.

The evil CCP keep suppressing freedom of speech and press in Hong Kong. First aiders and journalists were badly treated and even beaten up by the police. PoliceBrutality is happening everyday in HK.

Don’t miss this . HKPoliceBrutality

Hongkonger knew CCP Chinazi is extremely evil & brutal Totalitarianism longago but did not yield.. Though this time a much bigger crisis, HKer is still going to fight! For justice, HumanRight, autonomy & democracy! Dear world, pls StandWithHK! SOSHK HongKongNeedsHelp

This statement from Governor Patten is very accurate. This is not one system two countries if the CCP can set such an oppressive law without going through the legislative body in Hong Kong. The lesson learnt: Never trust the Chinese Communist Party!

Each of the shot of teargas break our heart. Although we face the PoliceBrutality, we come to the street and vocie out our demands. StandWithHongKong

Under the CCP rule, there's no more the old beautiful Hong Kong. It becomes a PoliceState. StandWithHongKong

They also ignore the Sino-British Joint Declaration. That's why some people shouted to Hong Kong Independence in the protest. It's because they believe that CCP will not respect to one country two systems.
