A law enforcement with zero knowledge of the law:
Police debate with Long Hair over Public Order Ordinance
1059 | Admiralty Centre
Police officers claimed there were over 50 protestors in the area, but pro-democracy activist Leung Kwok Hung of the League of Social Democrats (LSD), pointed out there were only 7 in the area.
The commanding police officer later said although there were only 7 protestors, Leung’s comments were inflammatory, which is a threat to the peace.
While the police tried to argue with Leung over different sections of the Public Order Ordinance, who was in a judicial review lawsuit against it, the police used the terms “unauthorized assembly” and “unlawful assembly” interchangeably, which were two different criminal offenses, claiming any assembly of more the three people which refused to comply with the police is an unauthorized assembly.
After a discussion, the activists decided to leave.

Hong Kong authorities "blocked" venue for once-annual candlelight vigil for Tiananmen massacre victims for a third year running
On May 24, a local daily, Ming Pao reported that the Leisure and Cultural Service Department (#LCSD), which administers the Victoria Park soccer pitches where the rally used to take place, has suspended any bookings on June 4, the 33rd anniversary of the #TiananmenMassacre, although bookings are available on other days in the same month.
Just 3 days afterwards, on May 27, the football pitches at Victoria Park were seen fully booked on June 4 from as early as 7am in the morning. No bookings, however, were seen for the rest of June. The same daily found.
The vigil has been banned -- ostensibly for public health reasons -- for the past two years and the leaders of its organizing group, the Hong Kong Alliance in Support of Patriotic Democratic Movements of China, arrested for colluding with foreign powers under a national security law imposed by Beijing from July 1, 2020.

【明報專訊】今年是六四事件33周年，也是《港區國安法》實施後，第二個六四周年。有市民昨致電康文署，查詢6月4日維園足球場出租情况，該署職員表明當日康文署暫停足球場出租，同月其他日子可以預約租用。康文署昨未正面回應為何足球場於6月4日不出租，稱因應新冠病毒疫情，已暫停處理轄下免費康體場地作一般非指定用途活動的預訂申請，該署亦未有接獲市民申請於6月1至5日期間租用維園足球場舉辦非指定用途活動的查詢或申請。
