6. [+3,050, -550] I was just there moments ago but had to rush home because I realized how wrong it was. I went to the demonstration in hopes of paying my tribute to those who lost their lives but the demonstration turned into several different political agendas. Was this not a Sewol Ferry memorial? But instead of paying tributes, people were fighting policemen, rallying for Park Geun Hye to leave office... it was not a memorial at all.
7. [+2,743, -497] Please stop beating our policemen... they're young kids who are barely 21-23 years old. As someone who served from 2006 to 2008, there were several times that I felt my life was being threatened and stomped when I was patrolling protests. I've seen my seniors and juniors with shattered shoulders, rib cages, noses... There are people at these protests who whip around pipes and bricks..
