        If scmp can show the HK gang members (white shirt ) attacking the protesters if scmp can show police brutality on rioters why can’t scmp show the exact humiliating actions done by rioters to that GT reporter which is all over the internet? Jw

        At least 50 people broke the laws that day and only 10 arrested. These weren’t protests, but riots. Law and order needs to be restored. If HK police can do it, so be it. If not PLA must step in regardless of how Western reporters would report it.

        Those are terrorists. Not only that they beat people up at the airport till fainted, they even refused to let the paramedics to help. When the police came to aid, those rioters ganged up on the police, strip his pepper spray and baton away, beat him till internal injured.
