Facing the Barrel of a Gun, Woman Holds Epoch Times Poster to Protest Hong Kong Police
The Epoch Times ^ | 12/24/19

Posted on 12/24/2019 3:53:02 PM PST by Liberty7732

In a stunning show of defiance, an unarmed Hong Kong protester held up a poster produced by The Epoch Times’ Hong Kong edition while gesturing at a police officer who had pointed a pistol towards her.

The Epoch Times has been unable to identify the woman, but understands that the police did not fire the weapon and that the protester safely left the protest scene on Dec. 22.

The poster contains a message that has become popular among Hong Kong protesters, reading “Heaven Will Destroy the CCP [The Chinese Communist Party],” in both Chinese and English. The slogan has spread to street corners, walls, and artworks in Hong Kong amid pro-democracy protests in recent months.

Hate to say it but I would wonder if the HK police went to her house later.

AI and facial recognition are extremely useful totalitarian tools.

Use extreme caution when allowing !

Those brave people-—Doomed in the face of iron tyranny. Put a democratic Socialist in power and this will be America. Do you have the courage of those young people of Hong Kong? How many of our selfish American young people would do such a thing for Freedom. More likely, they will be the ones pulling the trigger. Convinced of American “evil” they will want to remake America into the “Workers ecologically friendly Paradise”-where all hate speech and weapons are banned and all will work for the Government with the “God King” Sanders to watch over us all.

Smith and Wesson Model 10, sporting Pachmayr Presentation grips, the hot ticket in 1975 USA law enforcement. A large number of RHKP (Royal Hong Kong Police) marked model 10’s were imported in the US in 1983 as trade ins on newer ones.

Oh yeah just didn’t want any bad press is all. Communists don’t like the world to see who they really are.

I am an Epoch Times subscriber. They are changing the world.

It is a stunning paper.

Judicial Watch issues FOIA requests and Tom Fitton talks about them on FOX.

There is no comparison.
