Great Picture (2)


23 June 2010 - The SCMP published this picture of police in riot gear during riots in 1967, when some Hong Kong leftists waved Mao's little red book into the faces of the British oppressors. We still have demonstrations and mayhem in Hong Kong, but the outfits of the police have definitely changed. These poor guys look more like the Bermuda beach police, while today the riot police seem to have walked off the set from Robocop III.
