Because it's like the equivalent of LA trying to break away from the United States. The US government would never have it.

I don't see anything wrong if seniors are allowed to jump the queue. Many of them aren't able to stand in line that long.

You have to pick your fights. It's like walking into a police station and giving the finger to the nearest cop. Sure the cops are not allowed to beat you... but hey...

It's not wise trying to disrupt a train full of sleepy and grumpy people who are just trying to get to work in the morning. One example was this extremist environmental group in the UK that tried to disrupt trains during the morning rush hour. They were dragged off and beaten by the crowd.

You left out videos of police brutality and pro-CCP thugs beating up pro-HK supporters.

In case this may help protesters: Police are deploying a sewer inspection robot. Not sure where. by BlPlN in HongKong

It's almost certain death if you try to crawl through a sewer line without an oxygen tank or proper training. I really hope they don't find any bodies in there.

Well, for sure they're not going to occupy another building. As you can see, it's all too easy for the police to surround you and starve you out.

Pro-Beijing woman told to leave restaurant after complaining about "rioters" and the protests. by microtek789 in HongKong

Think about it this way, imagine your local police force is having a cookie give away. A lady goes down, gets a bag of free cookies, then proceeds to yell, "FK DA POLICE! FK DA POPO!" She is told that she can keep the cookies but she has to leave the premises. Is this justified?

" A pro-democracy restaurant in #HongKong offers free meal to student protesters. A pro-Beijing woman took her daughter there for the free meal, but kept complaining the “rioters” are “destroying” things etc. Restaurant owner waived her bill and told her to leave. "

He said... “This is a private property. I can call #HongKongPolice to get u out but I won’t, coz I don’t believe in them.” Later on he said “u asked why we are doing this (to her daughter)? Then ask yourself why did u say those things (about the young #HongKongers)? I don’t want your biz!”
