Hong Kong 721 Yuen Long Attack (terrorism)

What happened last year today in Hong Kong (21•07•2019) has left a permanent scar on our hearts. It’s the day when the reputation of the HK police is gone, entirely. The white shirt triad beat the citizens in the Yuen Long Station with weapons, indiscriminately, including the pregnant woman.

What’s crazier is, the emergency hotline (999) refused to pick up for any calls for help for 2 hours. It spent 39 mins for the police to arrive to the station when it is just a few minutes drive from the police station to the metro station.

What’s more ridiculous is, two policemen turned their back from the helpless citizens and pretended that they saw nothing. The police claimed that they did not see any white shirt triads holdin any kind of weapons. What’s more insane is, they did not tried to stop anyone of the white shirt to attack the citizens, instead they put their hands in their shoulders and acted like ‘allies’. They still claimed that the citizens started the whole thing first and those in the white were just trying to protect their home when it’s fake. They still refuse to beat any responsibility and not willing to explain why it takes so long for them to arrive and why no one pick up the phone. They even shut down the police report station on that day so there’s nowhere the citizens can call for help.

Is this Hong Kong Police? Working with triads and beating teenagers and youngsters who is fighting for freedom and democracy? So what’s the difference between Hong Kong Police and triads when they are basically doing the same thing? It’s police brutality, it’s terrorism. The police force should be disbanded.

Since the establishment and the implementation of the national security law, words like ‘liberate HK, revxlution of our time’ cannot be said or it’ll be regarded as secession. But as a Hong Konger, we will never give up.

Liberate Hong Kong. Revolution of our times.

[crimemore]

Hong Kong author Muk Yu never took part in the 2019 protest movement.But his debut book of eight short stories -- titled "Smoke on the Streets" -- set in the aftermath of mass resistance to the ongoing erosion of the city's freedoms under Communist Party rule has already garnered a literary award on the democratic island of Taiwan.
