During the ‘67 protests, the British killed over 50 Hong Kong protesters.



`67 "protests"? You must be kidding me. The series of events, known as the "1967 riots" in history, weren't really just protests or riots, but also a series of indiscriminate terrorist attacks against Hongkongers. Over a thousand bombs --- yes, a thousand, no kidding --- were planted, among them about a hundred were real. Most westerners may not know this, but this series of so-called "riots" is actually one of the largest-scaled terrorist attack in modern history.

And you said that the British had killed over 50 Hong Kong "protesters"? I don't know how many Chinese terrorists were killed, but I am sure that tens of Hongkongers had been murdered by the Chinese terrorists. Some were killed by the bombs planted by the terrorists. Some were killed by Chinese militants (equipped with firearms) near the border. A famous broadcaster, Lam Bun, who criticised the Chinese terrorists, was even burnt to death inside his car.
