There is no police in the world that can freely use the firearms without wearing their uniform, with no identification or having a black cloth on their face. Not even police in China and North Korea. But now HONG KONG POLICE.

Police brutality to the max - a protester is arrested, with a tear gas canister stuck in his eye. The police prohibit first aiders to provide immediate medical treatment to him, report says. (Photo: ZCS) HongKongProtest 929GlobalAntiTotalitarianism StandwithHK PoliceBrutality

Maybe because of this?:

badideamate Pepper spray was also used on our unarmed lawmaker Heidi Chu. Not an attempt to stop any violent acts, but simply because the police dislike him for debating with them Watch it at below:

badideamate The riot police also shot a journalist in the eye! Police should never aim at one’s head level, according to international guidelines.

Good work by the police. This protestors are merely public nuisance, unwarranted protest.

😆

The freedom of demonstration protected by the Law is being completely eroded and ignored. The Hong Kong govt has completely transformed into a tyranny sides with China CCP to suppress the people in all aspects. Hongkongers will fight until we win. StandWithHongKong

The degree of rights and freedoms protected by the Law is eroded by the police. At such crucial moment of deciding fate of our city, Hongkongers are standing firm to fight against the totalitarian CCP. Voice out and walk with us. 929GlobalAntiTotalitarianism

So that's what giving birth to a democracy looks like.

More than 2,000,000 candle from the supporters of President Moon and Justice Minister Cho were lighted on 9/28/2019 in Seoul to warn the Injustice and the abuse of Human Right by the Office of Prosecutors..💦 Amazing Koreans candles are back‼️ and will be back every Saturday

Insane cops in Hong Kong. HKPoliceTerrorism

They pepper-sprayed pro-democracy lawmaker Eddie Chu at close range today too. Police are desperate to escalate things

Out of control since before the protest begin. Too ' restraint'.
