Meanwhile, in Hong Kong, students have been occupying the streets in at least four locations for nearly two weeks, and have confronted violent police efforts to disperse them exactly once.

I guess things would be different if the students were a different skin color/ethnicity from the cops.

At Tien An Men, the Chinese authorities brought in Mongol troops when local soldiers proved reluctant to grind protesters under the gears of their tanks.

It’s the same old story.
