        Hong Kong is done. You might as well bring in the tanks and start bombing the city. Hong Kong is now trash and there is no future for anyone.

        Please take a look at the video posted in the previous (and identical) tweet from SCMP that gives some context to what happened. The officer was being attacked by a big group of protesters moments before this.
