Behind the scenes with Hong Kong’s ‘Frontliner’ protesters

In Hong Kong, pro-democracy protests continued for another weekend, with scores injured in clashes between demonstrators and riot police. (Subscribe: bit.ly/C4_News_Subscribe)
The unrest began in June with mass protests against a bill which would've allowed extradition to mainland China.
The demonstrations have now morphed into a broader popular uprising against Beijing's rule.
At the vanguard of the protest movement are young activists known as the "Frontliners."
The more extreme among them are often blamed for starting the trouble - but Channel 4 News has spent time with three activists, who say they are just responding to police violence against them.

    The ‘protester’ said he wanna create chaos, and actually they made it. Riot is addictive! They destroy and they get excited!

    Have they ever contribute to the success of HK'? Do they have the right to damage or destroy their home city or other people's property? So stupid and selfish. Unbelievable!

    How dare these kids mention about Bruce Lee? Bruce Lee call himself a Chinese back when HK was a British colony, and now you kids wave UK flags on Chinese territory.
