        The darkest night is when Carrie Lam bypasses the parliament to invoke the emergency law under no emergency state as she said. It gives unlimited power to this illegitimate govt to take away your asset, restrict access n suppress press freedom. Another 6.4 massacre is coming!

        But the Secretary of Security Bureau said it had been anticipated. She could foreseen the results yet she launched this yet another evil bill. Who is to be condemned?

        You can really tell she can't hire a PR team, it looks like a campaign clip from the 80s

        While police force are masking their faces and identities. Off duty police shot protestor with live round yesterday and hit civilian with car today. #PoliceTerrorism #SOSHKhttps://twitter.com/grandmachocogm1/status/1180523920312524801?s=20 …

        Hei @grandmachocogm1
        As I said before, under the effect of broke window theory, the police would become crueler. On October 5, Tai Po, an off duty police was driving his car and try to knock off a citizen. This is totally insane and should be considered as a murder. pic.twitter.com/cLa10dnzh9

        Earlier in June Hong Kong Gov't blamed #HongKongProtesters are minority (actually not) as rioters. And today after many wrong decisions she made, HK Gov't found majority HK People support #HongKongProstesters and ask for their break off . Who care this no legitimate Gov't?

        Beijing is now laughing, because Hong Kong is close for business and gone bankrupt. HKSAR will soon become Shenzen's backyard.
