        First it's not CONFIRMED it's the police in those masks and clothes. Next, every foreigner who sees this will be shocked and like me afraid of getting caught in the middle of all this as we take the MTR everywhere everyday. What's Really going on? This is now getting weird

        @BBC just cut the first part of the video which shows the rioter's behavior on their news. How funny it is! @globaltimesnews @PDChina

        看得我好兴奋。看到那废柴鬼哭狼嚎,抱住条女时,我觉得特别舒适。怎么打得那么轻了?再重手点打断几颗牙才好。

        actually, trained by the brits, lol. reminds me of that 無間道 sequel where the cops take out the uk coat of arms and replace it with the prc’s in their office, and nothing else changes
