HK Police's "Impartiality"
Two independent sources confirmed that water cannon vehicle has fired blue dye not only to the Muslim mosque but also the St Andrew's Church in Tsim Sha Tsui on Oct 20.
However, the government and police force only chose to clean the mosque and apologize to the muslims but not the St Andrew's Church and the christians. This unbalanced reaction and decision to go together with the fact that Carrie Lam is a largely-known-catholic who once claimed that "There is already a place reserved for me in heaven.”
The Anglican St Andrew’s Church was funded by Sir Catchick Paul Chater and built in 1904 with the foundation stone laid by Bishop Joseph Charles Hoare of Hong Kong Sheng Kung Hui. Designed in Victorian Gothic style, the church is built of red brick and granite and laid on rammed earth foundations. Coloured glass in contemporary Art Nouveau style were used to build the dome-framed windows.
As one of the oldest churches of Hong Kong, St. Andrew's Church has witnessed the history of Hong Kong. It withstood several deadly typhoons and has passed through the period of Japanese occupation when it was altered as a Japanese Shrine. It was awarded the UNESCO Asia-Pacific Heritage Awards for Culture Heritage Conservation in 2006.

Police Humiliated Elected District Councillors; Carrie Lam denies police brutality is perpetuating institutional violence
Riot police blatantly violated the Police General Orders again on January 17 in Tsuen Wan,
Three riot police chased a young man on a flyover and subdued him for stop and search.
Adrian Lau Cheuk-yiu, Tsuen Wan District Councillor, came to the scene and demanded a discussion with the commander on-site. The councilor’s request was bluffed and dismissed, just as the officers verbally abused the councilor by calling him “a retard”.
Other officers pulled their mobile phones out to take photos of the onlookers while hurling more insults like “shut up and be gone”. Eventually, the police pointed pepper-spray at onlookers who were not even provoking.

2 Years Since #PolyUSiege: Pro-Democracy Protester who Fled Hong Kong Missed Relative's Funeral, Fears Retribution from #Regime
When "A" (pseudonym) heard that a close relative had passed away earlier this year, she immediately made plans to fly back to Hong Kong for the funeral. She quickly picked an airline and a date for the flight; but when it came to selecting her seat, a sense of dread and anxiety suddenly struck her: "I'm really scared of being arrested."
In the end, she did not take the flight.
"A" was working overseas when the the 2019 #ANTIELAB movement broke out. She was not a frequent participant, and had only taken up back-end support roles when she visited her family in Hong Kong.
In November 2019, she went to Hong Kong Polytechnic University (#PolyU) to support the pro-democracy protesters inside, and was trapped when police laid siege to the campus.
She attempted to escape on two occasions without success; in the end, police took her information, and she was taken away by ambulance.
Afterwards, she returned overseas to work. She had thought that she wasn't affected much by what she experienced.
She never imagined that her fears of retribution would only worsen, rather than fade away over time. "When the time came that I needed to return to Hong Kong, I found out that I was too afraid to do so."
"If a family funeral wasn't enough of a reason to come back, then what else is there in Hong Kong worth coming back for?" "A" had never considered emigration; but now, she knows she could not return to her hometown in the foreseeable future.
She considers herself half an exile, and she could only acquiesce with her predicament: "You can't take back what has happened."
In November 2019, pro-democracy protesters declared a city-wide strike in Hong Kong. Roadblocks were set up across the city, and protesters occupied the PolyU campus in order to blockade the nearby Cross-Harbour Tunnel in Hung Hom.
Police surrounded the camlus from November 17, 2019 on, trapping protesters and citizens alike, and blocking multiple escape attempts by protesters.
Large crowds of civilians answered calls online to "break the siege", advancing towards the university from nearby districts. Police made mass arrests in Tsim Sha Tsui, Hung Hom, and Jordan; over 200 citizens were arrested on rioting charges.
Though many were released without being charged after the maximum 48-hour detention period, some of them are arrested again from their homes by police two years after in 2021.

【圍城.兩年】入理大後離港 至親去世不敢奔喪:我好驚畀人拉 | 獨媒報導 | 獨立媒體
(獨媒報導)今年年中,在外地讀書的 A 子(化名)得悉至親離世,立即安排買機票回港奔喪。選好航空公司、來回日期和艙位後,到了選座位一刻,她突然很焦慮、很驚恐:「我好驚畀人拉。」 最終,她沒有回來。 在運動中參與不算多、只是擔任後勤的 A 子,前年 11 月進入了理大,圍封後曾兩次突圍不果,最後被警方登記了資料,坐上救護車離開。事後,她去了外地讀書暫
