          I was arguing earlier here with @jgriffiths about whose fault the MTR outages are. Tonight couldn't be a clearer example of how the system is shut down punitively by authorities, to try to build resentment against protests. No one was touching the MTR stations I got stuck at

          Arriving in Kowloon, Nathan Rd was a ghost road with neither protesters not police in sight. Nearly every store was shuttered. This is... not how Nathan Rd usually looks on a Friday nightpic.twitter.com/DPiFpo4v91

          Here's a sense of how targeted the property damage is in Hong Kong. This stall vendor kept his stall open while frontliners in full gear bashed through the glass into a Bank of China branch behind him. Then a few patiently queued and bought drinks from his stallpic.twitter.com/zo8PLQIzZK

          For the first time in the protests (and locals can tell me if it's the first time ever), the ENTIRE subway system was shut down, stranding tens of thousands of people. No buses, no subway, no taxis. Some cars that got through stopped to pick up people needing a ride.pic.twitter.com/1J0uC74i3L

          The police tonight kept a very low profile. I walked past one large group of police vans on Nathan Rd., but they didn't engage, and rode off. Mong Kok police station, a usual flash point, was also fairly quiet. Police did nothing to defend the Legislative Council building either

          So what does that mean? It could be that police were scared of confrontation given the level of public anger tonight after the emergency decree. Or it could mean that they wanted the maximum mayhem in the city, as justification. I don't know what to think. But it has escalated

          In particular, I don't know what to make of shutting down the MTR like this. Is the goal to cause the maximum disruption to ordinary people, so they will blame the protesters? It is a heartless and cruel gambit, whatever it is. The MTR has been turned into a political weapon

          Headlines in the South China Morning Post (the government mouthpiece) certainly suggest that causing maximum drama was the desired effect. Note how they blame protesters for the completely unjustified decision to shut down the subway systempic.twitter.com/Me1gTOKmYU
