Protests In Hong Kong Continue With Increasing Violence And Casualties

Click to see full-size image

Protests in Hong Kong continued on August 10th and 11th, and are slanted to keep going on August 12th.

A 23-year-old female protester was allegedly shot in the eye by police and is at risk of losing it. This prompted plans to organize a sit-in at the Hong Kong International Airport on August 12th.

The demonstration plans, with some calling for 1 million people to descend on the airport, came after a series of violent clashes in Hong Kong on August 11, which led to injuries to both protesters and police officers.

As of 8:15 in the morning on August 12th, a total of 40 people, protesters and police included were injured and sent to hospital.

In a separate incident, a policeman inside Tsim Sha Tsui Police Station suffered burns to his legs after being hit by a petrol bomb. Which of course, according to MSM means this was a “peaceful protest,” – throwing petrol bombs and police.

MSM, such as CNN, are presenting the example of protesters shooting fire bombs at police as a “failure” on Hong Kong’s part of addressing protesters demands’ adequately.

“By appealing to the international community, and making sure it is their message that most foreigners are seeing, protesters have shown themselves adept at public relations. Meanwhile despite carrying out regular press briefings, the Hong Kong government has at times appeared at a loss as to how to engage with residents and protesters.

It comes as the Chinese government continues to ramp up its propaganda output in an effort to control the narrative about the protests, at least domestically.”

Thus, it is actually the Hong Kong Police that warranted it by employing “propaganda.”

This is reported by an outlet, which as the heading image of its video has a clearly non-Chinese/Hong Kong resident with a sign in English saying “Welcome to Hong Kong A city run by Police and Gangsters.”

After all, on August 11th, there was an approved rally in Victoria Park. Following that the “pro-democracy” protesters, were “democratically” discussing “where to go next.”

It should, once again, be reminded that the protests are “pro-democracy” only according to MSM and scarce images showing a questionable sign calling for democracy, quite conveniently written in English and always somehow away from the protesters.

In continuous meddling, on August 8th the US called the Chinese government “a thuggish regime.” This was a result of Hong Kong’s Ta Kung Pao publishing images and personal information of US diplomat Julie Eadeh who met with “pro-democracy” protesters.

The Office of the Commissioner of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Hong Kong lodged a formal complaint with the US consulate general over the meeting.

Leaking such information was “not how a responsible nation would behave,” said Megan Ortagus, who later confirmed that it was the US government’s position that the Chinese government was directly behind the leak.

In response, a spokesperson for the Office of the Commissioner of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) on August 9th, denounced the remarks made by the U.S. State Department spokesperson on “as a blatant slander against China, which has confounded right with wrong and again exposed US gangster logic and hegemonic thinking.”

The Chinese spokesperson said that instead of regretting and stopping its arbitrary interference in Hong Kong affairs, which are China’s domestic affairs, “the US side has made venomous and unfounded allegations against the Chinese government for the leak of the information. It perceives China with malice, which again reveals its dark mentality.

Finally, the spokesperson said that US diplomats regard it as their “job” to “collude with local anti-government and even separatist forces around the world.”

“Such acts arbitrarily undermine other countries’ sovereignty and security despite their opposition and indignation, and show little regard for international law and basic norms governing international relations, including non-interference in other countries’ internal affairs.

The international community is all too familiar with the examples of such gangster logic and hegemonic acts, and knows only too well how much harm they have done to the world, the spokesperson added.”

stupid is as stupid does

Does anybody goes to work, school or any other activity? Or they are now only work as “professional protesters” paid by U.S. State Department ?! I don’t get it why is China not sending few thousand police force to mix them up with the Hong Kong police and to finish up this US sponsored “revolution”? This situation with never ending protests can’t last forever.

They try to reverse process and turn Hong Kong into the colony again Opium wars and China as colony humiliated and exploited is thing of the past that will never return. Those protesting LGBTQ twats can go & seek asylum in the UK. Nobody will stop them. Things have changed, it’s your turn now U.S. & U.K. to bend over…

The two faced behavior of the US is plain for all to see. With it’s blatant support for open sedition. Whether it’s their CIA puppet in Venezuela, or HK demonstrators storming the legislature. Similar activity in the US would be met with harsh reaction by the government. Which is hypocritically supporting the same criminal behavior against targeted victim states slated for regime change.

“Orange County District Attorney Tony Rackauckas gave a detailed account of the events during a press conference on September 21, 2011. Using digital audio recording devices carried by the officers, surveillance video from a pole camera[27] at the Fullerton Transportation Center, and other evidence, Rackauckas provided evidence that Thomas did comply with orders from Ramos, who had put on latex gloves and asked Thomas “Now see my fists? They are getting ready to fuck you up.”[28] Rackauckas went on to describe how Thomas begged for his life, before being struck repeatedly by the officers. He was admitted to the hospital, slipped into a coma, and died five days later.”

The police in the US literally murder people every day in the US by any objective interpretation of the law. And the Zionist US government looks the other way and does nothing about it.

stupid is as stupid does

If Hong Kong police have had used just quarter of that unwarranted violence ( of those democratic US freedom cops ) I am sure that all the Hong Kong. protest would be finished long ago.

cop SLAMS handcuffed teenage girl to ground, knocks out teeth

This is obviously a case of assault with intent to injure. The cop wasn’t even charged.

“A Colorado Springs police officer was disciplined for slamming a woman face first into the ground, but remains employed with the police department.

CSPD announced the findings of their internal investigation Friday.

The video was more than a year and a half old when it emerged earlier this year. It showed Officer Tyler Walker throwing then 18-year-old Alexis Acker to the ground inside a hospital. Acker was in handcuffs at the time.

Acker suffered multiple injuries, and had to undergo dental work to repair damage to her teeth. An attorney for Acker told 11 News that some of her injuries are permanent.”

“One of two conflicting police reports obtained by the Colorado Springs Independent regarding the incident states that the officer “escorted her to the floor,” while the second one claims that he “rolled her … to the floor.”

The video that the publication obtained tells an entirely different story than either version in the police reports.”
