Hi Matthew. First off, thanks for shining a light on the situation in HK in the face of danger.

During your time there, did you notice any divide between rioters and peaceful protestors? Although it appeared that most Hkers were peaceful, there were many depictions on the news where private/public property were destroyed, protestors using molotovs and bows, and even an elderly street cleaner dying from a rock allegedly thrown from a protestor. Were most protestors okay with these actions as a perfectly reasonable response to being fed up with government oppression or did this cause a rift between them?

Also, in your experience, is it true that the majority of protestors were young adults?

Thanks again.
