6 months agoDoes anybody know where they getting the numbers for this claim? I see that they cited “Associated Press and other sources” for the US protest arrest numbers, but no source for Hong Kong protest arrests numbers.
I would like to find some corroboration for this claim and all I can find for Hong Kong is a count of deaths, injuries, arrests, and charges once public protests had effectively ceased.
Or if they get the wrong address.
Or if they don’t like your skin color.
Or if they don’t like your tone.
Or if they just generally feel like it while their body cams are “malfunctioning”.
Basically, if you want to kill people with impunity, become a police officer in the US.
