12-Year-Old Girl, Shopping for Stationery, Body-Slammed to the Ground by Police
Mrs. Ho took her son and daughter to Mongkok for lunch, then let them go shopping for pastel chalks afterwards, while she went to buy groceries and planned to meet up with them later. However, her children soon messaged her that the area around the stationery store was cordoned off by the police, so they headed off to Sai Yeung Choi St South instead.
...However, when Mrs. Ho arrived to meet them, she found them detained by the police and brought inside the cordon line.
Onlookers told her that they saw 4 riot police pinning her 12-year-old daughter to the ground, and her son was also roughly manhandled. The whole scene was chaotic.
"The cops just suddenly rushed in and pinned my daughter down...My daughter is only 12 years old! Is this how it is now? The younger you are, the easier you are to get picked on, and the more these cops will bully you?"
According to the footage from HKUST Radio News, the brother-and-sister pair, aged 20 and 12 respectively, were walking past a shuttered shop along with the nearby crowd. Suddenly, a plainclothes officer in a black T-shirt, wielding a baton and shield walked up beside them.
Startled by the police officer's intimidating presence, the girl began walking ahead at a brisk pace.
As she tried to weave through the crowd, a few seconds later, another riot police body-slammed into her head-on, knocking her off her feet. The officer then held onto her shirt and arm, as three more officers piled on top of her, pinning her to the ground. Meanwhile, her brother was held down by at least one other officer.
From what could be seen on the video, the area was not within police cordons at the time.

Founder of Taiwanese Forum PTT Boycotts Disney's Mulan, Hailing Hong Kong Women as "True Mulans"
Ethan Tu, founder of Taiwan’s AL Lab initiative and forum PTT, announced on 6 September, 2020 that he will resolutely boycott Disney's Mulan starred by Chinese actress Liu Yifei.
...Tu pointed out that the true spirit of the heroic Mulan is carried by many women in Hong Kong who took to the streets to defend their homeland, the rule of law and human rights even though they were threatened by police violence.
In Tu's opinion, Chinese actress Liu Yifei, who was openly supportive of the infamously abusive Hong Kong police, was too hypocritical and therefore incapable of portraying the heroine Mulan.
"I will not watch Mulan. For I have watched the real Mulans [in Hong Kong] die for my ideals and freedom for a whole year. I cannot watch the hypocritical patriotic story of becoming a hero."
Tu lamented that the youth took to the streets for Hong Kong, but were threatened and persecuted by the Hong Kong police with sexual violence. Therefore, he could not look at Liu Yifei, who supported Hong Kong Police's indiscriminate violence.
