As Cory explained when Apple yanked HKMapLive:

Including the on-camera, point-blank shooting of an unarmed, nonviolent protester

So Cory spoutet bull**** there.
Even videos narrator made a point that protester had a metal pipe and he was about to use it.

But still - good thing that Apple reversed it’s decision. Even when it most like was to prevent PR shitstorm of biblical proportions.
