HONG KONG: Protesters in Hong Kong vandalised a subway station Sunday, smashing surveillance cameras and electronic ticket sensors, as pro-democracy demonstrations took a violent turn once again.
The protesters used hammers to knock the ticket sensors off gates and spray-painted and broke the screens of ticket machines, using umbrellas to shield their identities.
The late afternoon attack on Shatin station came as a protest at which protesters folded paper “origami” cranes was winding down at a mall connected to the station. Riot police arrived after the attack and guarded the station after it was closed, with a metal grill pulled down to block entry.
Hong Kong's pro-democracy protests, now in their fourth month, have often descended into violence late in the day and at night. A hardcore group of protesters says the extreme actions are needed to get the government's attention. On Saturday night, police used tear gas and rubber rounds against protesters who threw gasoline bombs toward them and set fires in streets.

Are we really pretending that America forcing 'demoncracy' onto every resource rich nation so that they can install a puppet government, is NOT authoritarian or is actually following the Rule of Law ?
Is regime change so that every nation CONFORMS to the US model, democratic and NOT authoritarian ?
Is not sanctioning the WHOLE WORLD against countries ONLY America has issues with, really democratic and NOT authoritarian ?
Is not collecting 534 million recorded phone messages of its citizens a year, really democratic and following Rule of Law ?
Nope...it's not OK because these surveillance activities are in violation of the privacy safeguards established by the Congress and the US Constitution !
