Hong Kong police reportedly mocked foreign reporters and protesters in response to "can't breathe" for protests in the United States against racism.

According to the South China Morning Post in Hong Kong on the 14th local time, hundreds of citizens gathered in Hong Kong on the 12th to hold a rally to celebrate the 1st anniversary of the legislative siege on June 12 last year.

However, one of the protesters who came to the scene suddenly shouted the slogans such as "I can't breathe", "Black people's lives are precious," and "There is no United States." These aids were used in protests across racism across the United States after black man George Floyd died of violence by white police officers in Minneapolis, USA on the 25th of last month.

The problem is that the police repeatedly exclaimed these slogans as they mocked the foreign reporters and protesters who were covering the scene.

The Hong Kong Journalists' Association issued a statement and criticized that "the police should address the inappropriate behavior of the protesters and suppress the control of the front line police."

The Hong Kong police reprimanded the protesters who caused the problem and said they were always taking seriously the discipline of the front line police.

On the 12th there was also an incident reminiscent of the violence of the American police that led to Floyd's death. On the 12th, Hong Kong police arrested three students who were setting up an alliance vacation propaganda booth in the Causeway Bay area. In the process, a 16-year-old female student who fell to the ground knocked down on her knees. The girl complained of dizziness, was transferred to a hospital for treatment, and had a scratch on her face.

In response, Hong Kong gangs criticized the police, saying, "The lives of Hong Kong students are also valuable." However, Hong Kong police defended the actions of the police by saying, "It is not against the rules."
