Hong-Kong Protests

[Gatekeeper]

LMAO.

When i first saw this video surfaced accusing Triad beating up protestors (presumably for the thugs own consumption). Then I saw the "victim" (in green) saying to the press he is hurting all over, inside and out. Yet no evidence of cuts and bruising! I thought it odd!

Anyway, net citizens have made a comical sketch of this.

Those teachers, instead of teaching the kids to hate, they should teach them how to write/spell the first place!

China should hang these traitors!

I'm lost for words. Can only apologies to the Chinese community that they are such embarrassment to us Hong Kongers

This is the propaganda my nephew's wife is posting to justify the violence

She's in Toronto

Thanks, still awkward, we too have friends/family that are so pro-democracy demonstration that they can't/refuse to see they are in face rioters.

And if I confront them, then I'm a commie lover and a 5 毛！ figures.

The thing is I got no beef with democracy demonstration, etc. As long as peaceful! that's all. Period! But I guess I'm a 5 毛！ lol

It still requires Carrie Lam's consent. Besides the rioters would storm the legislative building again and make sure the bill couldn't be passed. Enacting the Emergency Law and using the Emergency Law to introduce laws toward banning of face mask or even banning the oppositions' media is much more easier. In the end of the day, it is up to Carrie Lam. I don't have much confident in her anymore due to the fact that she has caved too many times already.

I sort of agree. But now its not the time. We should show a united front. Any division, and the foreign-backed forces will exploit it.

I've noticed a pattern of thought among a select few members who seem to be constantly posting pro-regime opinions on this thread:
- Constantly posting cherry-picked videos of rioters engaging in delinquent behavior
- Premising that most of HK's protesters operate in the same fashion as those rioters
- Claiming that HK protests were caused by "foreign powers"
- Assuming that HK police could do no wrong and that the CCP is always justified in whatever bill it passes
- Assuming that the "real" underlying impetus for these riots is an imagined hatred of mainlanders on behalf of HK folks
- Branding anyone who chooses other than to kiss Xi Jinping's feet as "traitors" or "criminals"

It is ironic that such folks, who claim to be advocates of law-&-order and peaceful demonstrations, suggest that a possible "solution" to the HK protest is to call in the PLA and indiscriminately massacre these people. Not unlike what the PLA actually did to students in 1989.

Now, don't get me wrong; destruction of property, physical violence, and impeding the daily lives of other Hongkongers should be punished accordingly. Those who use the protests as a pretext to engage in criminal behavior (something that is common to all major protests, not just this one) should be caught and punished. However, the above neither represents nor defines the motives behind the HK riots.

Now, IT and social media companies are reporting that the CCP is recruiting online trolls and fake social media accounts en masse in order to sway public opinion on the HK protests.

This bill basically is designed to economically sanction and deny entry into the US for Chinese officials who intervene in Hong Kong. I don't see a problem with that. An official in China making important decisions should not have assets in other countries that can be used to influence his decision. If he does, that's a huge conflict of interest and he either needs to be removed or it needs to be clear that those assets are of little importance to him compared to doing his job. To me, as a Chinese official, you can't have a problem with this bill. For a Chinese official to openly have a problem with this bill is like a US senator irately opposing a bill that increases the penalty for statutory rape... in Thailand LOL. You're outing yourself!

and in the meantime
Beijing vows to retaliate after US’ Hong Kong human rights bill is approved by congressional committees

• Foreign ministry spokesman says the bill is a malicious attempt to contain China’s rise
• Hong Kong Human Rights and Democracy Act of 2019 progressed through Senate and House of Representatives committees on Wednesday

Manqiang is right, this bill is a kangaroo bill, it does nothing but appease their own audience. And they know it!

You can only apply sanctions on individual with assets you can sanction!

First. If the USA is so concern about human rights and democracy, then they should:

Apply sanctions to every countries in the world that don't have "democracy", starting with the country that USA export most of its arms!

Second. If the USA is concern with Hong Kong' "democracy and human rights" then it should Sanctions China completely!

They actions just showed it is purly a PR exercise!

With regards China formal complaints as a replyvto Manqiang. Well Jura, you really take the bsicuit this time!

What did you expect China to do? Nothing? Even though "the democracy and human rights act", like the "Taiwan relations act" before it. Is nothing but words and bluster for internal consumption.

It is still a BLATANT violation of another sovereign country's internal affairs! Something that the USA seems to fail to understand!

Ask yourself, what has Hong Kong got to do with the USA, that the later feel its their obligation to pass a law on the former?!

Can you imagine the outcry from the very same USA politicians if China should pass laws on... say... hand back Hawaii to their rightful king!

Yep! That's the way to go! Accusing genuine patriots here as blood-lust commie loving 5 毛 (50 cent, since you can't read chinese)!

I've been caught red-handed, please just let me earn my last 50 cent 5 毛 before you shut me down!
