The anti-government protests in Hong Kong have been raging on for over two months now with tensions reaching fever-pitch following the announcement of a highly controversial plan that will allow criminal suspects in Hong Kong to be extradited to mainland China.

The reason the public opposes this is because they believe people will be subject to unfair trial and torture under China’s notoriously ruthless justice system.
Well with no end in sight to these protests it looks like the government has finally had enough and hired a bunch of Triad thugs to dress in all white and beat the absolute shit out of everyone in sight.
Unfortunately this involves pregnant women and female journalists:

The Times reports that Junius Ho, a pro-China MP, was seen shaking the attackers’ hands and even thanking them for battering protesters.
Hong Kong’s opposition Democratic Party is now investigating the attacks after the night of violence turned the political landscape even bleaker than it already was.
Lam Cheuk-ting, who was also injured, says the police couldn’t have cared less:
Is Hong Kong now allowing triads to do what they want, beating up people on the street with weapons?
Either they’ve been told to stand back and let it happen or they’re as terrified by these Triad thugs as everyone else is.
I’d poop my pants if I saw this lot coming at me too, to be fair:
#HongKong police failied to protect the anti-government protesters from the China thug Triad gang attacks.
According to eye-witnesses, gang members were aiming their attacks towards people in black shirts that had attended protests earlier on in the day. pic.twitter.com/eve0xcWX5x

We can only hope some kind of resolution is made that will end the violence and serve the best interests of the people of Hong Kong but knowing how things work out there, I doubt that’s happening any time soon.
For more Hong Kong violence – get a load of what happened to this guy after he started yelling Avengers spoilers outside the cinema.
