(VICE News) Parents gather outside the university to beg police to let their kids go, while one protest leader called on the international community to prevent "Tiananmen 2019." [Information about which is unknown to most Chinese, who have their Internet censored worse than U.S. censorship.]


Hong Kong University standoff between protesters trapped by police
(DW News, Nov. 18, 2019) A standoff at the Polytechnic University in Hong Kong continues after students barricaded themselves inside during anti-Chinese government demonstrations and infiltrated (agent provocateur) protests.

Some desperate university students attempt to flee, but police appear to trap them inside the university by firing tear gas and rubber bullets [deadly projectile intended to cause sever trauma, unconsciousness, and permanent injury as if struck by a baseball bat] on those who tried to disperse. Up to 800 protesters gathered on the campus, some of them carrying homemade weapons such as slingshots, rocks, and Molotov cocktails. Police threaten to use live amunition [shoot them to death with military-grade weapons from a distance] if they fail to disarm themselves. In either case, armed or disarmed, they have been trapped at the university and cannot leave.
