Honk Kong - Ripe for some shit to go down

Uhhh, have we already forgotten the entire street of buses that got their tires slashed and burned and the group of protesters that straight up got murdered after they attacked the police who were attempting to stop the protests? There was a day of full chaos there that got wide spread American support.

That sure sounds like what several liberal states have been doing here.

My liberal shit hole is doing the exact opposite of cracking down on violent protests and encouraging it. It's to the point where we have a damn near latino and black race war going on in two suburbs because the cops stopped blocking looters and the natives started defending their neighbor hoods and killing looters and pissed off the:mr-t:.

If you are against the riots they are cracking ass on people, really weird.
 
Was listening to a podcast today where they were talking about laws that changed in the civil rights movement. Before 68, the local police/municipal was responsible for damages to personnel properly from rioting. Then there was a law change that removed the liability from the city/police and left the property liable, which then took the incentive away from the cops to do anything because they would be jeopardizing their safety and potentially opening themselves up to lawsuits for intervening. Plus the cuties get to expand infrastructure spending to rebuild which helps with tax expansions and bond repayment structures which help their bottom line even if they don't add any real value to the community.

Probably not applicable to HK. But in reference to local issues.
