Mothers rally as Hong Kong's divide shows no sign of closing

Hong Kong's political divisions showed no sign of closing as students rebuffed an offer from city leader Carrie Lam to meet and a few thousand mothers rallied in support of young protesters who left a trail of destruction in the legislature's building at the start of the week. "Don't feel lonely, dad and mum will support you," read one of many handwritten messages held aloft at a "Hong Kong Mothers" rally Friday. University professor Sealing Cheng asked who was responsible for the destruction of the legislature, implying that an arrogant government had driven the protesters to break into the building and rampage through it.
