On Aug 18, protesters gathered in HK for “peaceful, legal and non-violent” demonstration

In the afternoon, protesters took to the streets around Victoria park

But once the rally ended, protesters began creating disorder

They gathered around the HKSAR government building and the police station

Laser pointers targeted police badge and vehicles passing by

A tourist from Shanghai was mobbed

Protesters held him, spray-painted words on his shirt, and even forced him to take a picture

At around 11 pm

Bored protesters were eager for some “action”

Two protesters even started fighting each other

A man in a white shirt was hit and he began bleeding in the back of head

On Aug 19, the police said in a press release that

Protesters will block the airport on Aug 24 again

This series of acts lead to a reasonable doubt

What’s the true intention behind these “peaceful” protests?

Is it to protect Hong Kong?

Or a conspiracy to jeopardize social order and stability?
