2,000 people have been charged and many of them were charged and tried within 48 hours of their arrests. This was the efficiency the #HongKongPolice capable of, yet selected NOT to carry out on the Yuen Long white-clad thugs. 4/4

It has been a year since the "#721 Yuen Long triad attack". Based on HK Police records, of the 37 people arrested related to the attack, only 7 were formally charged, even though there were hundreds of attackers participated in the 3-hour-long violence. THREAD 1/4

Keep in mind that within the same 12-month timeframe #HongKongPolice arrested over 9,000 people, many of them peacefully, participated in the #antiELAB movement. 2,000 people have been charged and many of them were charged and tried within 48 hours of their arrests. 3/4

Familiar scenes of last November District Council election are happening today in #HongKong ❤️❤️❤️ #Hongkongers are lining up to vote in pro-democracy camp’s primaries despite the threat of NSL.

I stand with the people of #HongKong as they bravely stand up against human rights abuses.

Congress and this Administration must take swift steps to lead a multilateral effort to end these authoritarian policies and protect Hong Kong’s autonomy.

Despite her own current "defeat", Grandma Wong is convinced of #Hongkongers' eventual victory.

Three times she wrote "加油!" (translate: "Carry on!")

Alexandra Wong, nicknamed "Grandma Wong" by fellow younger protesters, wrote to @StandNewsHK on the anniversary of 612 crackdown. In the email she revealed her overall health is at rock bottom as a result of immense mental stress.

[Back Up HK Human Rights & Democracy @Postcard4HKHRDA]

She expressed deep concerns for #Hongkongers subject to atrocity of HK police and political imprisonment. At the closing of her email, she questions how #CCP could overturn the democratic tide and norm of the free world.

Thank you Taiwan ❤️😭

@samwarmstrong How sad. We shall remind ourselves that we’re better than this.

How to defeat an evil empire like #China? Well, maybe by starting #BoycottChineseProducts #BoycottChineseApps and #BoycottChina as a whole!!!

@benedictrogers Thank you European Parliament for speaking out for #HongKong 🙏🏼

On the first anniversary of the 616 march where 2 million Hong Kongers showed up demanding the withdrawal of the extradition bill, a double rainbow appeared at Victoria Harbor. Don't lose hope- there is light at the end of the tunnel.

@BrianLeungKP How true! All Hongkongers wanted is to be heard by their own government; and their interest properly represented in the legislature.
