#FirstHand #LaiChiKok #Instant #20Dec #PeacefulProtest

21:00 | “Supporting the Righteous at Lai Chi Kok Reception Centre” was held at 20:00 at Lai Chi Kok Reception Centre today. The event was organized by the League of Social Democrats. Around 6000 citizens gathered outside the Centre, across the road and many of them were still on their way. People kept chanting since the event started.

Protesters arrested in this movement wrote letters to the public. Joshua Wong, Claudia Mo, Eddie Chu were invited to read out the letters, and talked about the salary increase of Hong Kong Police Force. On the other hand, families and lovers read out the letters written to the arrestees on the spot, hoping their loved ones inside the Centre could hear them. People cried and no one ever left even it was raining.

At 22:00, lights in the Centre would all be off. People sang “Glory to Hong Kong” with their flashlights on.

An informal gathering was arranged this evening (June 3) outside of the Lai Chi Kok Detention Centre for supporters to mourn and pay tribute to the Massacre victims.

Police began boarding vehicles to leave the scene, but a few plainclothes officers were left behind and had to walk back to the station.

Nearby civilians, such as this lady, took the opportunity to berate them and vent their displeasure against the police:

"You've become so corrupt!"

"You've lost your humanity, you've sinned against the gods and against your morals!"

"They've left you four behind to face us!"
