Chaos unfolded at Hong Kong's airport when riot police clashed with protesters who flooded the airport to rally against a proposed law, which would have seen people extradited into mainland China's opaque justice system. Here's what the unrest looked like

CNN correspondent: HK confrontations between protesters and security force "increasingly ugly"

“It’s just a scene that's gotten uglier and uglier with no signs of compromise between the city government and the demonstrators. And it just feels like one massive self-inflicted wound by both sides, unwilling to find a compromise and resorting to do more and more damage to their own city in their effort to try to get some kind of an upper hand in this incredible test of wills,” he said from Hong Kong.

“So according to our reporters on the ground, the demonstrators detained an individual that was suspected of being an undercover police officer and what our reporters on the ground have said is that those demonstrators then refused any medical first aid access to that person who then became unconscious," he said.

willripleyCNN Hi Will, ty for the info. I hope you have a good flight back n ur able to land at Hong Kong. I thought u might be in the US a little longer. As always be safe AJ

willripleyCNN So I'm confused CNN and dems. Is China good or bad? Should we not hold them accountable with Tarriffs (leverage) for trade abuse, but intervene on their abuse of their people. What do you think benefits The US. Dems are all over the map.

willripleyCNN I went to Hong Kong when I was 9 years old and I loved this city. But what happened in the airport tonight was just appalling to me. what they did there was way beyond exercising the right of freedom. Hong Kong is dead. Sad. Hongkongprotest

willripleyCNN That's what happens when you let socialism creep in. Let that be an example why we need TeamTrump PrezTrump protecting our freedoms by keeping TheDemocrats socialist party OOO🤓 and Out Of Our Lives🚂🚃🚃🚃🇺🇸

willripleyCNN I think the dramacrats are secretly hoping they can cause riots in our American streets like what we’re seeing in HK. They want to create chaos in hopes to hijack that energy to legitimize and validate all their lies and accusations against Trump. Votes or bust.

willripleyCNN The undecided voters in the US sat on their hands& did No nothing when the neo-fascism slipped into power before very their eyes! They still staring open-mouthed&slack-jawed at the extent of the ugly stain that the Neo-fascist in-chief leaves on the credibility of the US.

Riot police? ! What the hell are you talking about? Once John F. Kennedy International Airport is conquered by the protesters, NYPD definitely will shoot them down by real bullet!

hoping this kind of violence happened to those who is favor of terrible protesters

Stop spreading fake news!this is not protest but schemed riot. These thugs should thank HK police for tolerating so much! If the same thing happens in the US, the police will fire real bullets for certain!
