Detroit Red Wings Adidas Adizero NHL Authentic Pro Road Jersey | CommentSome 1.7 million protesters gathered in Hong Kong’s Victoria Park Sunday afternoon to mark the 11th consecutive weekend of pro-democracy protests in a city-state that, for decades, functioned as a quasi-independent city state and financial gateway to the world’s second largest economy.
