A video of a man in Hong Kong being set on fire by anti-government protestors has gone viral along with another video of police shooting a protestor at point blank range. As The Daily Mail reports:
On top of that, another man was badly wounded after he was doused in petrol and set on fire after remonstrating with protesters in separate clashes at Ma On Shan Plaza.
Horrifying footage of the attack showed the man being splashed with fuel and engulfed in flames after arguing with protesters on a footbridge and telling them ‘you are not Chinese’.
The man managed to rip off his flaming shirt but was also critically injured in hospital after suffering severe burns.
The violence prompted further anger today but Hong Kong’s embattled leader Carrie Lam said the violence had gone far beyond calls for democracy and said the protesters were now the people’s enemy.
The brutal footage underscores the incredible violence and destruction that has been rattling Hong Kong for months after anti-Communist protests broke out.
Death to all Tyrants!
The Hong Kong government badly mishandled this from the beginning likely due to puppet strings being pulled.
It is hard to understand why anybody would do that to another human being. On the other hand, it is hard to understand why the people of Hong Kong are put to the test for freedom of speech and why they must put up with the Chinese communist government, when they are clearly capitalists and freedom minded. The Chinese government should relinquish control over Hong Kong, unless in a democratic election, the residents of Hong Kong agree to Chinese rule.
Thank goodness for an honest report on what the violent protesters are doing here in HK. This savage act occurred just a few meters away from my apartment building. These violent jackanapes are the face of anarchism and nihilism; not Democracy and the Rule of Law. It is shameful how politicians in the USA are misrepresenting what is occurring in HK. Shame on them!
