    A group of men attacked protesters in North Point, leading to a street brawl. In other districts across #HongKong, rallies turned into clashes as police fired multiple rounds of tear gas. http://sc.mp/elqq pic.twitter.com/5aO94gony2

        Why were protesters armed with sticks? They object to police using batons. Now they are the thugs.

        Ok for them to use violence, use weapons to damage property, attack police, but if the police so much as lift a finger, police brutality
