If I #standwithhongkong, am I siding with the Hong Kong police or with the minority of Hong Kong protestors? |

Tear gas use was inappropriate. No aggressive behavior by the people. |

Specifically, to demand Beijing withdraw its strict guidelines for the election and restart the constitutional reform procedure. And to demand release of student protesters arrested two days ago (one was released just now on habeas corpus and the other two have a few more hours to go before police have to either press charge or let them go). |

Now TV: 3 Network and CSL have NO plan to cut off cellphone signals. Very nice they did not give into the government. |

For the tanks to roll in, the HK government needs to declare a state of emergency and make a request to the Chinese government. But I don't know. |
