That's just riot control has nothing to do with the fright of free speech. The brutality did not go unchecked in the case of the immigration rally in LA - heads rolled.
How far does free speech go? Even moronic Neo Nazi's and Klan members can congregate and protest.
It's a difference of ideology but everyone should have the right to free speech. IN china everyone has been protesting against Carrefour and rightfully so, but the police shut that down and broke up the protests, even though they were peaceful protests.
It's only a matter of time before further democratization leads the rest of China down towards the freedoms that Hong Kong, Taiwan and Macau have already embraced and cherished - there is no turning back.
