Picture
The past few weeks has seen a drastic escalation in violence on the streets of Hong Kong. On Tuesday night, a police officer aimed a shotgun at protesters who had gathered outside a police station, while a car launched fireworks into the crowd. 
​

Days earlier, the police fired rubber bullets and tear gas at protesters trying to reach the Chinese government’s office. 

​And the week before, following a protest of 430,000 people, vigilante thugs, dressed in white and carrying bamboo sticks, beat up democracy protesters at a train station.  

The rest here:  A smart piece by former IAF organizer Amanda Tattersall on Hong Kong protests.
