KiingMufasa these are some ‘special cases’. In most situations they shoot the rubber bullet and tear gases first, and they show the warning flag. In last year there were at least of 3 people were blinded because of the ‘police’ , shoot the rubber bullet directly to their eyes which is not following the law. You may search the news of 12/6, 11/8, 29/9, which include the information and video. And there are more and more police brutality in Hong Kong. I hope this could give you more information of the situation in Hong Kong and hope you will watch the above news and video to justify whether those ‘police’ are really professional.

The Hong Kong police deserve to be respected. They are under pressure from both sides, protesters believe they are excessively violent, and some citizens think they are too weak. They have been working at high pressure for so long time, and their families and children are threatened by protesters. But they still exercise restraint as much as possible, and maintain the order of the city within the authority given by the law.

[@AllanBaguinon]

Communism is bad. These protestors are fighting against their government tyranny.

[@GeoT91]

@@AllanBaguinon Hong Kong operates with a high degree of autonomy due to one country two systems constitution as part of the handover treaty. Hong Kong residents are very free and are not oppressed. Also if you ask protesters how they're oppressed, most would have trouble giving a straight answer. A common half truth is 'separatist elected lawmakers were denied', what they won't tell you is that the were denied because they refused to take a proper oath-a common requirement in western democracies. You could openly and publicly criticize China and have absolutely no problems visiting Hong Kong. That's a true testiment to how free Hong Kong is generally and from China.

[@technatezin]

@@AllanBaguinon What? And, you think Hong Kong's quality of life is better for the average person than someone living on the mainland? You must be dreaming. People could barely afford rent and some people live in homes that are no bigger than a bunk bed. Their "homes" are literally cages.

I've never taken part in a protest in Canada....but I've never heard of western riot police ever giving warnings let alone multiple warnings before using force or making arrests...Can anyone confirm? I'm actually curious, or is this a UK policing thing?

[@FirstLast-di5sr]

They do, it's generally only done through megaphone/speakers. HK is a multi-lingual area (Mandarin, Cantonese, English) so it makes sense for them not to have to say everything in triplicate. Using flags for (para/military) tactical communications is an ancient method. It also functions for both the legal (international attention) excuse/dismiss excessive force complaints purposes as much as in aiding communications between units of officers (who may not be able to hear the commands/radio). Especially when deploying large formations to enable the creation of a frontline; West seems to use smaller more mobile units (not to be confused with the shock troops shown above) for containment before funneling in to consolidate their ranks for clearing/arrest operations. As much as they'd like it to appear as an above and beyond humanitarian gesture (while amassing troops on the border), it's simply a cold and pragmatic bureaucratic decision wholly void of any ethical motivations, thoughts or concerns.

[@GeoT91]

@@FirstLast-di5sr Hong Kong is predominantly if not all Cantonese speaking, mandarin isn't spoken except for Mainlanders visiting for business/travel, many people know English but it's really for expats. I don't think English is necessary for communicating with locals but it's probably for the international audience as you pointed out. So were the peaceful protesters at Toronto G20 given warnings before mass arrests were made? I was under the impression that no warnings were given. Army police at the border has no effect on humanitarian considerations and their deployment would be on Hong Kong government not Hong Kong Police. Since peaceful protests have devolved into lawless violent riots, I don't think it's entirely unreasonable to use army police. Also their deployment would be consistent with the one country two systems constitution. If these riots took place in the US, the National Guard would undoubtedly be called in like Ferguson.

[@EvanJefferson1]

Oh man that aged badly

[@contactacb]

I think the use of Bi-lingual warnings and signs is in part to the history of HK being a British territory for over 100 years and there would be a wider use of English in general in addition to the larger number of British citizens present. Even after the return the British influence on equipment, uniform and tactics is still present, although in the mainland UK whilst all the kit is in the manual (gas, baton rounds, water cannon) we are very reluctant to use it at 'home' - one of the things that hasn't changed is the old Empire approach of it being ok to use in the "colonies" equipment and tactics that back in the 'homeland' would only be used in the most dire situation. We invented the original baton round in HK for riot suppression there in the 1880's but it's use was never contemplated back in the UK - likewise the modern rubber/plastic version was invented by us in the 60's/70's but was only widely used in Northern Ireland - on the mainland it's a specialist less lethal option for armed officers and things would have to be really bad before they saw riot control use (came close a couple of times in the 80's though)

All the protesters will have gone home, as is the plan, so most of the media coverage will be of APCs rolling down empty streets, and old footage of Tienanmen. The end result will be severe damage to the Chinese government (political and economic), basically a poison pill, and guaranteed refugee status for anyone in HK that wants to leave.

Amen.

it's more like a battle game for protesters, but making money for some rioters, especially an admission to Yale.

[@thunderedsun203]

They should stop using tear gas Reason here:Tear gas and pepper spray can create serious, even life threatening complications in people with underlying heart or lung conditions, like asthma or COPD. If inhaled, tear gas can irritate and inflame the lining of the lungs and upper airway, causing wheezing, coughing, and choking. Let's Hope It Does Not Get Lethal

[@鄭美-u3u]

Actually almost all rioters have gas mask. (Although I not really know will the mask work)

[@jia2001]

The stocks for teargas just skyrocketed!

Agreed. Disgrace to police fraternity worldwide.

If you cant deal a violent situation you just use a violent situation towards the violent situation And this my friend is called fighting fire with fire

[@i.j.t.1469]

I had sympathy with the protesters to begin with, it is totally gone now. Tens of thousands of innocents are delayed at the airport, they do not come to work or home to their family. Time to stop these protesters and let them feel the consequences of ruining for tourists and other innocents.

[@hocyrusgreat9324]

Now HK rioters will taste the bitterness of their life, they still lucky. It is Hong Kong, if it is in USA they will be either crippled the rest of their life or in coma.

[@jackkreacherr9339]

Amazing training and tactics. Also, not many police force's will give you that many warnings so professionally

HK Public: Do you get the memo? Carrie Lam: memo?

[@oldshoes4290]

Carrie Lam isn’t entitled to follow whatever the public tells her. Besides, the bill has already been shelved, why are they still rioting?

[@Caramuel]

Oldshoes Wrong. She has been elected and is representing them. She should do anything they want her to do. This is democracy.

[@ejfjvwejjwfebwefhjdsc5778]

[@zemiris]

Both sides using high level tactics, respect to the police for displaying warnings properly and yet to be able to accomplish their goals as clean to the public as they can, but they using English as second language on the flags it just seems as a International measure for us to understand what they're trying ensuring that no clickbaits or fake data is filtered xD

[@curly5330]

hong kong police does not care About international support, they've been bashed by the media just like how other police forces (america, france, India) have been bashed biasedly

[@iceblue1457]

The protestors do not realize that HongKong is a prosperous place and there are forces which are watching and would undermine HongKong govt to cause Hongkong's ruin.

[@NangongReng1973]

I hope they would invent some spider web that can entangled these rioters. The police and the authorities has to act tougher. They are too lenient. Even collaboration with other forces by certain ppl to harm Hk, were not treated seriously. What is this?
