Thousands take to Hong Kong streets as Beijing says protests must stop

Thousands again took to the streets on Sunday in Hong Kong to call for broad political changes as Beijing warned that it would not let protests persist.  A commentary run by Xinhua, China's official state news agency said the central government “will not sit idly by and let this situation continue." Two demonstrations snaked through Hong Kong, one close to China’s liaison office in Hong Kong, now heavily guarded after it was vandalised by protesters a few weeks ago.  Demons
