Nope, no similarities between Hong Kong’s demonstrators and Minneapolis’s rioters. (The Donald Win)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The Global Times, a propaganda outlet of the Chinese Communist Party, insists that the US should stand with the violent rioters in Minneapolis. Their line of reasoning? That we sided with the Honk Kong demonstrators.<\/p>\n

The Hong Kong demonstrators marched for a legitimate cause. They protested suggested policies that violated their human rights. They protested CCP activities that didn’t recognize Hong Kong’s autonomy.<\/p>\n

The rioters and looters in Minnesota?<\/p>\n

Destroying other people’s property, stealing, attacking infrastructure in place to keep the peace, etc., isn’t the same thing as the Hong Kong protests. The Minneapolis rioters risk destabilizing peace and security.<\/p>\n

Actions are being taken to address the police officer involved with the incident that started the riot. It’s clear, from video evidence and initial reporting, that justice is going to take its course. This is a legitimate case that’s going to be addressed. There are plenty of differences between what the rioting people are doing here, and what the Honk Kong demonstrators are doing.<\/p>\n

From The Global Times:<\/span><\/p>\n

Hong Kong’s rioters and police should carefully watch how the “democratic US” deals with the chaos in Minnesota.<\/p>\n

After the tragic death of African-American George Floyd following violent police treatment, enraged protesters in Minneapolis rushed to the city’s police building, where a fire later broke out. US President Donald Trump then began to feel uneasy. He sent out a tweet early Friday morning (US time), saying, “I can’t stand back & watch this happen.” He instructed Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey to “get his act together and bring the city under control,” saying the alternative was that he would send in the National Guard and “get the job done right.”<\/p>\n

“When the looting starts, the shooting starts,” Trump said. He said he had spoken to Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and told him “the military is with him all the way.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The people that are burning buildings, including a police precinct building, and stealing from other people, are rioting when they shouldn’t be rioting. They already have the freedoms that their Hong Konger counterparts are demonstrating for. President Trump wouldn’t have supported the Hong Kong rioters if they had no reason to riot and had they done the same things the Minneapolis rioters are doing.<\/p>\n

….These THUGS are dishonoring the memory of George Floyd, and I won\u2019t let that happen. Just spoke to Governor Tim Walz and told him that the Military is with him all the way. Any difficulty and we will assume control but, when the looting starts, the shooting starts. Thank you!<\/p>\n
