Hong Kong Extradition Bill

Tear gas envelops heart of city
as protestors flood downtown
Hong Kong
in protest of China's
extradition bill,
which presented city’s leaders
w ultimatum:
back down, or risk violent clashes.

So, wat's the reason?🤔

4 protesters, extradition law
represents line in sand:
dramatic undercutting
of local autonomy
that will end Hong Kong’s status
as a safe haven
4 dissidents fleeing mainland.

Marchers well-organized + coordinated,
dropping umbrellas from overhead walkway
2 provide protection from police + rain
4 those in streets below.
Others tied metal barricades together
2 ward off any potential police advancement.
