HONG KONG - Hong Kong police again used tear gas on Sunday to try to disperse anti-government protesters. Tens of thousands of protesters marched in pouring rain on Sunday, regrouping under umbrellas after sometimes violent clashes a day earlier that prompted police to fire tear gas for the first time in more than a week.

this is beacuse the protesters attack the police at first, and the police need to protect the security of themselves. if the same thing occur in US, maybe the police didn't use tear gas, but use the gun to shoot the protester.

And there's me thinking, looking at the picture, they were just spraying agrochemicals onto the weeds and insects. JustSaying

How about petrol bomb from Riot mobs? Why don't mention it? 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻

you American used to fire with real guns in such condition. So whats the matter of using tear gas?

Don't be scared if you already book trip there .it's safe place

What does Reuters report on if the American protesters using those thing?

Protester use traffic cones and water to put out the tear gas canisters

China WILL roll you over sooner or later. Demand a US Second Amendment NOW!

Hongkongers wising up.

2 lethal water cannons arrived outside Tsuen Wan town hall. Let's hope there won't be casualties

that's against Humanity
