The Associated PressChinese troops came out of the barracks in Hong Kong on Saturday — not to quell protests but to help clean up.
For a city now accustomed to fierce weekend clashes between police and protesters, Hong Kong had a relatively quiet Saturday. Small contingents of protesters harassed some of those cleaning up, and those at Polytechnic kept a major cross-harbor tunnel closed. About 1,000 people turned out for an annual Gay Pride event in the center of the city.
The Hong Kong government said that it had not requested the military’s assistance in the clean-up, describing it as a voluntary community activity. Traffic disruptions continued to plague parts of Hong Kong, and schools and universities remained closed in the city of 7.5 million people. Universities have become the focus of the protests in the past week and the main battleground between pro-democracy activists and the police.
Except for the Polytechnic University in Kowloon, most of the remaining nine major universities in the city were for the most part no longer occupied, except by a handful of protesters.
Interesting in your pick of words. Because in the video we don’t see “tear gas” we only see “bricks”. Is it the police that thrown all these bricks?
Excellent. This displays care for their city!

Chinese students head to mainland, fleeing Hong Kong unrestHundreds of Chinese students in Hong Kong have retreat across the border to the mainland city of Shenzhen. The_Psi_Lord Alright who's gonna tell them? Typical. Just like SJW & Snow Flakes in America. They claim to fight for equality & freedom, but as soon as someone disagree or has different view, these morons resort to threats, violence, & intimidation. They don't seem to understand freedom they fight for goes both ways.
