I am not sure about this incident. But I am very sure that HK Police is now more like China, after the Umbrella protests. China is slowly squeezing HK. For HK people who left because of 1997, the decision will be vindicated. HK is now a very sad place, with weekly street protests over affordability. The income is stagnant for the last decade. The opportunties for betterment is lesser now because of crony capitalism. http://www.economist.com/news/inter...ed-businessmen-are-most-likely-prosper-planet The property prices are the most unaffordable in the world. (Demographia International Housing Affordability Survey) http://www.ejinsight.com/20150120-h...le-housing-market-for-fifth-year-says-survey/ The Gini Index showed that HK was tipping for social unrest over inequality. What happened next was the Umbrella - Occupy Central movement. HK people are proud and work hard. But a lot of things were taken away because of the 1997 handover to China. The best chefs left. Even Cantopop is in deep decline.
That is a problem in other places also, and is what can happen when police are above the law. What happens when it is the police who have committed the crime, and they refuse to enforce the law on themselves? In some places in the world, the law gives citizens equal rights to the police (theoretically). In other places in the world, the common people basically have no rights, and are entirely dependent on the police for their protection, at least if they do not want to break the law. Take a guess which of those two types of system exists in China. That is why it is so important to make sure local police are not corrupt, and to have some sort of oversight in place to efficiently deal with police corruption if it becomes problematic.
what you said is exactly correct, this is the real situation of HK china is making HK to get more and more reply on china. yet, it is taking our "blood" to save them, all the over budgeted infrastructure sites are built by china companies, and no one investigate those sites or if that infrastructure is necessary or not. HK govt also set up many "funds", for different kinds of purposes(?) and those funds are not regulated by council, it's a huge of money. and HK stock market is now linked to shanghai, and later will link to ZH, aiming to boost the china stock market, yet it will have a bad effect to hong kong. base on the basic law, we should be financially independent, yet, there's many tricky ways for china to take our money to save the china economy which is going to doom. yet, china is lying as she always does, create a fake picture that China is helping HK. to mislead some stupid Hong Pigs, not to rebel as china is holding our life. all in all, the closer of China gets to HK, the more worse of HK will be. just like if you keep holding a rotted dead body, you will get infected and finally you will be rotted together with that dead body. independence, it's the only escape door of HK locals.
i wonder, in a protest, if a protester is sexual assaulted by a cop intentionally, and that female protester punch that cop at once, can she be charged by attacking police? but i see it is a self defense.
Anyone can be charged with anything. As unbelievable as it may sound, some places do not give people the right to defend themselves. So it would be up to the discretion of the prosecutor (the judge is basically just there to rubber stamp everything), and that's assuming the police do not lie. Even if the woman did have the right to defend herself, and it was written in the law, she could still be arrested, and held for a long time until they figure out exactly what happened. The law says she can be arrested if they think she might have broken a law.
Of course, if the protesters are willing to not follow certain laws, that potentially opens up numerous other options... I think protesters should do their best to follow the law, unless it comes to the point that the law is blatantly wrong and leads to a huge violation of rights.
You can ask people in the United States, if someone is going to occupy Wall Street, the police? Hong Kong is a legal system society?Don't funny. A casual place to trample the law, do you not bashful?
