It was big at the time, but ended up being a minor blip, and from what I read, there were no actual deaths caused by the police. There was one guy who fell down a high rise garage and there was a street cleaner who was killed by the protesters. Compare that to when the British were taking over Hong Kong, and hundreds of protesters were killed. I’ve always wondered what would have happened if the pandemic didn’t occur soon after. What’s crazy is the trigger was a Hong Kong national who killed his girlfriend in Taiwan. Taiwan wanted to extradite him but there was no law in place to do so. Apparently the killer is still free today. | ||

Officially no deaths caused by police. Chan yin-lam case is one that always sticks in my head. I can well believe correlation is sometimes the answer but the odds of an award winning swimmer doing a midnight dip and washing up naked the next day, with a rushed police investigation and extremely expedited cremation is a fair bit to accept as coincidence | ||
