A demonstration in Hong Kong turned combative on Monday when a group of pro-autonomy protesters, surrounded by thousands of others, began ramming and bashing the Legislative Council building, marring an otherwise peaceful pro-democracy march.
Police also posted a sign that warned protesters to stop charging or they would use force, according to the AP. The protesters who attacked the building and the remaining thousands who kept marching both oppose an attempt to change a law that would allow for extraditions to nations including China. In her first public appearance since her apology to Hong Kong's people, Lam shared an ill-timed split-screen moment with the gathered protesters as she tried to plead for a reset with the angry city she governs.
CIA is good at killing
Never underestimate the determination and tenacity of an angry mob carrying umbrellas.
Trump should have kept sanctions against Huawei and most of Chinese firms. UK should have kept Hong Kong. Over the longer-term China will create a big war. His next target is Taiwan. China would be less powerful if we boycott imports from that country
brexit we just sit and watch destruction unfold, sadly waiting to say 'I told you so' at the same time crying with the people that caused it Brexit
Reminiscence of Orcs ramming the Gates of Helms Deep
Oh this will go over big in Beijing.
Hong Kong is part of China. Why shouldn’t the mainland govern Hong Kong?
Good grief!!! Do they not have sledgehammers in Hong Kong? That should be a 2 minute job, MAX!
I
Is that an Ikea shopping cart 🤔 ..
This is totally unacceptable in each government in the world.
This might get ugly real quick. Giving Mainland China an excuse to invade and really crack down. I am concerned that there will be blood in the streets.
I love that they’re doing this and that they’re wearing hard hats. SafetyFirst
This is not the Hong Kong that I know (thought I knew). I have been going to HK for almost 20 years; this is sad to see (I don’t not claim to be up to date on the situation- I just wish the protesters would be less destructive to property).
Wow, Black Friday is way bigger in Hong Kong.
I'm afraid some people are about to get themselves killed.
Where did they get that oversized shopping cart
Oh, I thought this was the attack by Antifa in Portland OR this weekend who put people in the hospital because of attacks with crowbars, lead pipes and other weapons?
As opposed to Portland, OR where Antifa terrorists smashed in the heads of Trump supporters.
mchastain81 Uh-oh. It's getting real over there.
Obviously, this kind of behavior is illegal in any country, but it is in our interest and we should support it verbally.
These mobs are crazy in riots and attacking Legislature！！
'Second Opium War' refers to British strategic objectives: legalizing opium trade, expanding trade, opening all of China to British merchants, & exempting foreign imports from internal transit tax. 'Arrow War' refers to the vessel which became the starting point of the conflict.
Maybe we should pay attention to Hong Kong.RESIST THE MADNESS!!! BEFORE ITS TO LATE!!!
Looks like communists in mainland China have a huge problem, will they use tanks and live ammo, like they did in 1989 Tiananmen protests ? DOWN WITH COMMUNISM ! HongKong
If china if you want to hang a cross on your wall you must put a picture of xi on one side of the cross and a picture of Mao on the other side. Thank God for the United States 🇺🇸
JamesAALongman Hong Kong would be so much better off under British rule! They believe in Democracy not crushing freedom and individual rights like Communist China!
JamesAALongman Notice the liberal ABC, Didn't report the attack of the journalist in Portland Oregon, From the terrorist group antifa. the Mayor and police department did nothing. Democrats didn't speak out against the violence, Again if you're a Democrat you should stand up and say something
