Police shoots at Hong Kong protesters
The actions of an officer who shot live rounds at a teenage protester were “lawful and reasonable,” the Hong Kong deputy police commissioner said, adding that there was a threat to the lives of officers.
Tuesday saw one of the most violent clashes since the Hong Kong protests erupted in mid-June over the extradition bill with mainland China. It was also the first time that the law enforcers employed live fire against the rioting crowds, often equipped with Molotov cocktails and other self-made arms. An 18-year-old student was shot in the chest from close range and now remains in hospital in a stable condition.

No. Those cops are nothing more that thugs. They shouldn't have been out there in the first place. They deserve every lick they got and more. They don't like it? Stay home.
One of the main mistakes the Syrian authorities committed at the early days of the Syrian crisis was not responding adequately to the dangers coming from the 'peaceful protesters' side, not even after 110 anti riot unarmed police officers were killed in the city of Homs in the early days. They were trying to absorb the massive 4th generation hybrid US-led War of Terror.
Large part of that also can be attributed to Syria's own allies pressuring the country not to respond properly.
We saw how the western hypocrites react to unlicensed protesters and how they react when their heavily armed police get threatened. Watch this documentary: https://www.syrianews.cc/syria-lean-days/
