kikasasucasa:kikasasucasa:kikasasucasa:PLEASE REBLOG, PEACEFUL PROTESTERS WATER CANNONED IN SOUTH KOREA (14/11/15)The citizens of South Korea are currently being oppressed with brute force by the government, Please reblog and help spread the word and bring awareness to the current situationThe recap: Korea’s current PM, Park Geun hye has proposed to make complete alterations to the nation-wide textbook, consiting of heavily biased views about past events in order to manipulate and warp both history and it’s citizens. The new textbook condemns the Korean independence movement as well as glazing over the dictatorship of her father, erasing the history of thousands who were abused over his leadership.A group of protestors, consisting mainly of uni and young high school students has decided to gather at Gwanghwamun for a PEACEFUL PROTEST (met all regulations, has been reported/notified to the police PRIOR the protest) when all areas leading to the area was cut off by police.They have since fired WATERCANNONS (WATCH VIDEO) laced with capsaicin/tear gas (X) and oil, blasting at random at protestors AS WELL as ambulances and other volunteers trying to give first aid. A man has been blased in the face and is in critical condition while many others are injured or currently are being brutally mishandled by police. The tear gas used by the government has been notified to consist dangerous levels of capsaicinand 465.75 LITRES has already been spent already in close proximity of the protestors in just few hours. (Korea is also undergoing the worst drought in 40 years. Yay)BUT MOST OF ALL, THE GOVERNMENT IS HEAVILY CENSORING ALL THIS. They have censored the most popular website naver.com, erased all of the news headlines and refused to broadcast the current situation in all national TV news channels. We have no way of communicating without the censorship of the Government without depending on SNS. Please share and help us from being silenced by this dictatorship.#Fucking_korea(tag used by Koreans) #PrayforKoreaThe man shot down by the jet-stream of water in this video has undertaken severe brain-damage and is currently undergoing surgery. Police has also blasted the ambulance as well as the inside and a young student who was previously in the vehicle due to a broken arm had all of her liagments torn off from the sheer pressure of the water stream.They have also barricaded all forms of transport as well as GASSING the underground subway lines in order to prevent anyone from returning home from the site. The Korean law only permits any legal protests until 11:00 pm. ANY PROTESTS AFTER THIS WILL BE ARRESTED AND DECLARED ILLEGAL. IT IS 12:40 AM IN SEOUL RIGHT NOW. They are suppressing the people by force. Please help spread thisA COMPLIATION VIDEO OF THE POLICE RESPONSE CAN BE FOUND ABOVE. The media channels controlled by the government (SBS, MBC, TVJosun etc etc…) are currently describing the protest as “brutal, violent and savage” and trying to put blame on the citizens themselves while manipulating the truth. -- source link
