Do you have family?
Take a second to imagine how you’d feel, if your brother played “Glory to HK” in his car and was pulled out and arrested by the Police;
Imagine if a Pro-CCP taxi driver ran over your sister, resulting in the lost of two limbs, she will never walk again, and the Police didn’t hold the monster who ran her over accountable;
Imagine if it was your dad’s ear that was bitten off by a pro-Beijing mobster;
Imagine if it was your girlfriend who was raped by the police in the San Uk Ling detention centre;
Imagine you just passed by a shopping district during halloween, asked the police a question gently and they sprayed pepper right into your eyes;
Imagine you lot were heading to a rally to exercise your right to assemble, got ambushed by the police, now they are shooting Teargas grenade at you, Execution-style. Nazi style.
Imagine the outrage you’d have, the commitment you’d have, to assist in the apprehension of the monsters who could inflict such irreversible harm on you and your family members.
Stop saying TearGas grenade is not lethal. Don’t waste my time.
Do you know, being hit by tear gas cartridges could cause bone fracture, severe bruising and blindness, and those riot police aim them right at the citizens’ heads and hearts, important organs. A police Baton could be lethal when aimed at the head.
Don’t give me that speech about how protestors are violent too and it was “necessary force” on the Police’s side. Don’t waste my time.
Thousands of protestors have been arrested and many have been charged, anything they do they are bearing the ramifications.
The police on the other hand, aren’t held accountable at all, but they are the ones with the privileges, weapons, and status. They bend the law to their favour.
Don’t tell me to calm down, stop wasting my time.
Would you give somebody your left cheek if they slapped you on the right? If yes, you’re an idiot, you’re a push over, don’t force other people to be a push over with you.
Every time I thought it couldn’t get any worse it just escalates.
Stop telling me Police brutality in the States is worse so HKers should just suck it up.
Police Brutality in the States is irrelevant to us.
It’s not about what other countries are like it’s about standing by what’s right.
How bad is your inferiority complex to think we don’t deserve anything the west doesn’t have?
Those murderous Police are out there walking around with a badge and a gun.
This is supremely fucked up.
And this is from Rahila Gupta:
"Pacifism is an ideal to which one should aspire but as a strategy it is mostly inadequate in dismantling structural violence in archaic systems in our society today.
We live in a world where there is a growing threat from fascist and ultra-nationalist movements. A blanket rejection of the use of violence for legitimate self-defence risks turning pacifism into passive-ism. Self-defence is a widely accepted principle in international law. For dispossessed people, armed struggle is sometimes the only solution.
Whatever has been achieved by ‘peaceful’ non-co-operation movements owes its success partly to the ‘violence’ on the fringes or the threat of violence contained within an angry mass of people."
Couldn't agree more.
