BREAKING! Situation out of control in Hong Kong!

Jesuit China.

The Pope declared China is the model for the future, he wished to see Chinese Social Score implemented everywhere.

FUCK ROME!

Wtf is happening there ?

Hong Kong is hit by another massive rally, with people flooding the streets to demand a backdown on a bill that would allow extradition to mainland China. Tear gas and pepper spray have been used to tackle the unrest.

If a revolution begins in Hong Kong, this could play nicely into Trump's hands in regards to the tariff situation.

Will keep a close eye on this situation, this could end up becoming a very significant global event.

Death to commies.

Backed by USA to cause chaos.

I hope they continue to stand their ground.

At least they are using tear gas instead of tanks?

Britain should have never given it back to China.

Don't Let Them Burn The Bok Choy!!!

Xi is a hardliner. He will never back down and rescind this bill. This will end up being a repeat to the Tiananmen Square protest. The PLA military, stationed in Hong Kong, will be called out and many protestors will be arrested and killed...

The question arises whether the international community will support the Hong Kong uprising. Will it turn into a Civil War with Hong Kong breaking away from China and becoming its own Country...

If the Bill is enacted, then many Companies will leave for better Rule of Law Countries. If the Bill is enacted, then anyone (including vacationers) could be incarcerated and tried in Beijing for dissidence...

I hope we don’t see another Tiananmen Square. If the commie tyrants in power feel that they’re in real danger, they might actually go that route...

Yep... order out of chaos.

Holy shit

History Repeating - Tin Omen 2

We need a new world hot spot to make some money for the military industrial complex

Hong Kong is a part of China that tries to pretend that it isn't. It was never free, never won its freedom.

I do think the fears of the HK people are real. While the UK had it, a lot of people came there running from Mao Zedong's regime. They have terrible memories of the Cultural Revolution and other bad things in China. HK was a refuge.

But then HK (Kowloon at least) had only been leased to the UK, and China took it back in 1997 when that 150 year lease expired. China took back Hong Kong Island too, because without Kowloon, the island was indefensible.

China had to give up Hong Kong in 1847 due to the Opium War, where the Brits used drugs to weaken China and defeat it with its navy.

Some HK people were granted real UK passports, during the 20 or 30 years before the 1997 handover. Those were about the top 30% of the society: professionals, civil servants, wealthy business owners. The UK took who it wanted. The rest were left.

China has a lot of say in the government there even during this temporary period of a "high degree of autonomy". HK wants its freedom, sure. But it never won its freedom. It was just handed back and forth.

WW3 is ready to start

And so it begins.

Bring out the tanks!

no matter how it shakes out, will be a Pyrrhic victory for one side or the other

Wow, lots of people on foot. They really filled up that park.

What will happen now? Well they'll get very hungry in a few hours.

Now if they all could just do the MACARENA in unison...

There is nothing to protect the people of Hong Kong. China is unfree.
