In my personal view, violence is the last resort for protesting and even then, sometimes I disagree with HK approach (beating officers with pies) despite of the fact that I support the HK's cause.

I’m guessing China would have attempted disarmament as soon as Hong Kong returned under their control, and today’s situation would be the same.
