Be "Tolerate" to Sun Yang

(14 Mar) Recently, the Pro-Beijing camp and the Hong Kong police have both tried to open up the international battleline, justifying the regime's violation of human rights and condoning indiscriminate violence.

After the visit to the United States by several members from the Executive Council (ExCo), Regina Ip Lau Suk-yee said that the US has little chance of sanctions. However, almost at the same time, the State Department released a report about human rights, criticizing Hong Kong police for using excessive force and interfering with the freedom of assembly. Whether the sanctions are awaiting in the future or not, everyone remembers that after Regina Ip's visit to the US last year, she also publicly stated that the "Hong Kong Human Rights and Democracy Act" would not be passed too soon, which the Act passed two months later.

//the so-called "police violence" is a weapon to discredit and defame the police... but Kwok did not explain why the police did not do what they should do on 21 July

//the public to be tolerant of the police because they are under pressure.

//In China, Sun Yang's incident was read as the whole world slandering Sun and framing China, and the dignity of the entire nation shall go all in to fight for the "right" judgment... the swimming "giant baby" has become an "abandoned baby".
