Carrie Lam doesn't run Hong Kong, Beijing does. The people of Hong Kong are standing up to Communist tyranny and inspiring all lovers of freedom. Sadly, they are likely to meet the same fate as that met by the freedom movement in Tiananmen Square. PDChina ChinaDaily HongKong

I support Carrie Lam, very strong and courageous Chief Executive.

She probably did spark it, but it’s been steeping 4 a long time. They just needed something 2 ^ the heat 2 boiling point. Look at US. Putin’s been sowing divide & finally found Trump 2 take it 2 the next level! His supporters r now as anti-American democracy as HingKong is pro!

Hong Kong has found too much freedom for China to accept. China intends to remove Hong Kong dissidents to the mainland for a repatriation process. The world is watching.

so over it
