#HKPolice suddenly ran towards a man. Citizens shouted at the police & they walked away after confronting the citizen.
Citizens demanded the police to release the students at #PolyU & chanted "Liberate HK, Revolution of our Timesโ, โ5 Demands, Not 1 Lessโ and sang "Glory to HKโ.
This is the elected District Councillor of my hood: photographer Pakkin Leung. Heโs been covering the protests and chose to stay at #PolyU rather than campaigning for his seat. But he beat the long-serving pro-Beijing DAB candidate regardless #HongKong https://t.co/XcQW7gTs9V
Almost 3 million people voted. The opposition is winning 388 seats vs. 59 for the gov't (w/ a few more counting). Every way you look at it, this is historic. As our city plummets from being semi-autonomous to semi-authoritarian, we react by showing whatโs DEMOCRACY IN ACTION.
The first day that schools resumed, #hkpolice deliberately targeted high school students to stop and search for no reason. As many #hongkongers suggest, being young becomes a crime as #China and #HKGov are totally out of reach of the whole city.
HK Police respond to police vehicles attempts to ram protestors: Speeding does not mean dangerous driving and our officers are well-trained.

A Hong Kong protestor helped a food stall vendor who has been affected by tear gas to wash his eyes. Another one gives him a pair of goggles. These are what the Hong Kong government and police called the "rioters". #StandWithHK#ProtectHKStudents#SOSHK
There are too many of these shots for any one of them to be memorable, even though they should sear our memory. This is what it looks like when you wage war on a population, when you arrest first aiders and journalists and students and children.
One protester was surrounded by several #HKpolice officers and beaten by batons. The inequivalent force exercised by protesters and police has driven the police to beat up the protesters recklessly. #HKPoliceBrutality
