民陣申請今日在港島舉辦遊行被警方反對,上訴亦被駁回。不過近期多次被警方禁止的遊行集會,最終都有市民拒絕妥協,同樣上街表態。
根據代表警方的律政司政府律師陳嘉桓表示,假若9月15日的遊行再次有200萬人參加,警方未必有能力維持秩序,終於承認6月16日遊行人數為200萬人。
昨日親政府人士到各區拆毀連儂牆,又襲擊反送中人士,警方選擇性執法,只拘捕年青人,更刺激了輿論,網民呼籲香港人此時更加要走出來對抗黑暗勢力。

Hong Kong Island Flooded with Protesters as March Banned Again
The Civil Human Rights Front’s application for a march on Hong Kong Island was opposed by the police and the appeal was dismissed. However, in the recent rallies that was banned by the police, the public refused to compromise and took to the streets anyway.
According to Chan Ka-hang, the government attorney of the Department of Justice representing the police, if the march on 15 September again has 2 million people participating, the police may not be able to maintain order. The police finally admitted that the number of protesters on 16 June was 2 million.
Yesterday, pro-government people went to various districts to demolish the Lennon walls and attacked citizens. The police selectively enforced the law and arrested only young people. It agitated public opinion and emotion. Netizens called on Hong Kong people to come out more against the dark forces.
Starting at 2:30 pm, the streets near Sogo Department Store at East Point Road in Causeway Bay, were flooded with crowds and overflowed to Wan Chai, Admiralty and Central. Streets of Hong Kong Island is jam-packed with protesters once again, chanting “5 demands, not one less” and “Hong Kong people, Add oil! (Bravo)”
