American history twitter: has there been any example in the United States of authorities using live fire against political demonstrators since the Jackson State killings in 1970?

Yes, HKPF. They take orders from the CCP tho (even if it's 3 times removed), correct? Have any plans for the inevitable moment HKPF is finally pressured into using live ammo?

The police live here and have an institutional history and culture very different from their bosses. They do take direct orders. No one wants to see live fire used in Hong Kong, and I'm hopeful it won't come to that. The protest-related deaths so far have been terrible enough.
