Some Hong Kong protesters are waving the American flag at rallies, hoping to rally U.S. support
Scan the pro-democracy demonstrations roiling Hong Kong this summer, and you will likely spot a few American flags flapping in the teargas-laden air.
“We want the U.S. to guard our rights,” a flag waver who gave his name as Joe said this month, explaining why he was carrying the Stars and Stripes. He wore a green surgical mask and a blue head scarf to obscure his identity, plus goggles to protect against police tear gas and projectiles. He declined to give his full name out of fear of arrest and retribution.
