At least four people are injured after a heated political argument outside a mall in Hong Kong spiraled into a violent knife attack, according to local media. The assailant was reportedly beaten by bystanders.

A tense political argument is said to have broken out between the suspect and a family near CityPlaza mall in the Tai Koo district. The attacker then took a knife from a bag and assaulted the group.
One of the victims was described as lying unconscious in a pool of blood, while others sustained only minor injuries.
The assailant was reportedly stopped by an angry crowd which surrounded and beat him until police arrived.
Photos taken during the incident appear to show the perpetrator biting off part of the ear of one of his victims. The latter is claimed to be a district councilor.
In another photo, a person – supposedly the perpetrator – is seen lying on the ground, bloodied and surrounded by a crowd.
It's not a political argument when the US and its ilk interfere to destabilize the whole region from there. These colored revolutions don't happen over night, they're in the work for years.

hk protests is about the freedoms they enjoy over there being threatened to be taken away as they cannot vote for all parliament seats and half of them are decided by china... this dispute would not happen if hk was a functioning democracy... protestors get 5 years or longer prison time, and if the extradition treaty would have passed being a protestor could have gotten u a ticket to a chinese concentration camp

what RT does not mention is that is was a pro china thug that was beaten down and china has hired a lot of mobs to beat down hk protestors or even follow individual protestors on their way home to beat down... RT is very pro-china about the hk protests and focuses on the few individuals of the 2 million protestors that are seen to be violent after 4 months of protests rather than the police violence that has been ongoing from the start...

Why the USA, UK and France supporting them and they call for these foreign powers support? They lost any legitimacy by calling for such support. Don't forget I'm Syrian and we saw how such calls end up.

hk is a former colony of the UK and they ask all western countries for support, also germany...one of the protest leaders joshua wong also spoke to germans on german television (and he speaks german)... the treaty that gave hk back to china should give hk 50 years of autonomy and china may not interfere in hk autonomy and this is broken, which is why hk feels like the only one they can turn to is the west...
also this is not a protest of a few thousand as it was in syria but this is 25% of the country that is currently protesting actively for months... when 25% of a population strongly disagree about the issue enough to stay on trhe street for 4 months then it should not be debatable...
because they are protesting the police marks them with blue water to later imprison them, and there are mobs beating them down... they fear that the little democratic leavarage they have (as elections only decide half of the government seats) will be taken away (hence umbrella movement) and protestors as a result were banned from running for government office (realizing their fears).. yet also freedom of speech is being limited there as book shop owners get kidnapped into china for selling books about the cultural revolution and mao zhedong in china, and the extradition treaty would mean people could get extradited for protesting to china...
also keep in mind an extradition treaty is usually done between countries of similar justice system while china doesnt even have a fair justice system...
hk is also refuge for many religions that are banned in china, groups like uigurs (muslim) and falun gong (its like yoga buddhism) flee to southern asia to not get put in concentration camps...
talk about foreign support. hk leader was inviting chinese troops for "foreign support" and the military was placed right at the door step of china to march in at any time.
