    Beyond the obvious idiocy of firing tear gas indoors, you really have to wonder what exactly was the point of this? Tear gas is supposed to get crowds to disperse. Where are people supposed to disperse TO when they are INSIDE A FUCKING SUBWAY STATION?https://twitter.com/hkfp/status/1160543890065068032 …

        IMHO this is all about turning Hong Kong into (short of) a war zone, so that China can send in its 'Peace Force'. #CynicalGovernment #HongKong #China #antiELAB

        Sorry, at this point in time, it isn't about dispersal. It is about inflicting as much harm as possible. Frustration levels are beyond the boiling point. The breakdown of police discipline is unfolding each day on the front lines. This is either condoned or encouraged.

        It wasn’t tear gas, this gas is more dangerous and it can cause allergic reaction to skin and breathing, idiocy firing rubber bullets which cause a women to lose an eyesight is far more reckless than expected
