One witness' report:
I would like to say I was right there where several of the photos are from, and this is what I saw.
I want to share what i witnessed today, and for those who think the police have not been biased you can judge for yourself.
This afternoon, shortly before I made the SCMP main feed for having anti-occupy hurl racist slurs at me for 10 minutes telling me to 'go back to my own country' even after I explained that hong kong was my home to and that yes white people also live in Hong Kong, but I digress.
I witnessed a full grown man, about my size and build, 6'3, 200 lbs push through a crown of people and charge full running speed at a line of 20 year old students and (american) football tackle his way into the crowd knocking the students half his size to the ground violently, the Hong Kong police watched him do this and quickly escorted... him off to the side where they immediately released him and let him go on his way.
When I went up to the police and started asking them to please help to separate the crowds, they told me, and I quote, "we cant get involved." I pleaded with several of them that the protesters were only kids and that these full grown adults were going to really hurt them, and within minutes of me saying this, they all, about 30 officers, got into their cars and left the scene completely leaving the students to the wrath of the violent mob.
Shortly after they left, I personally witnessed the man in this video, along with several of the people who racially degraded me, all full grown men, pick up a student protester who wasn't doing anything agressive whatsoever and just passing through, and slam him down onto his back violently to the pavement, with no police around there was no one to help this poor kid but me and a few other people... the crowd then jeered, destroyed barricades and threw things and the students who did not react or do anything aggressive in response as well.
I am fully willing to explain this story to the police or any legal authority that is interested to hear it 3pm today(the 3rd, Oct, 2014), if anyone knows someone please let me know.
One man:
Just 2 little details that seem to have... eluded the editor of this article:
1) There was such thing as a "clash". The anti-protesters practically swept through the students while the police just looked on passively.
2) The so-called "anti-protesters" were mostly mobsters. Unless you've never been to HK, it's impossible not to see that.
