Hong Kong retiree Kong Su-lin, 75, speaks in on a Hong Kong street Saturday, Oct. 4, 2014. Some of Hong Kong's 7 million residents are protective of the mostly young pro-democracy protesters. Others support the demands for wider political reforms, but have grown weary of the hassles of blocked streets and closed schools. And there are some who opposed the mass display of public dissent from the start. People spoke on Saturday about joining or watching the downtown occupation that some have dubbed the &quot;Umbrella Revolution.&quot; Kong said &quot;I was out last night even though my grandchildren tried to stop me. I am old so the gangs don't dare touch me. I stood between them and crossed my arms telling them not to hurt the students. I am afraid that I could've gotten pushed because I broke my back last year. But I hate the Communist Party, they have to be opposed.&quot; (AP Photo/Joanna Chiu)
