Hongkongers Suspend Protests to Mourn Victims of 9/11; Chinese Netizens Support Terrorist Attack on the U.S.
On Sept 11, 2019, Hongkongers suspended all protests amidst the heat of the Anti-ELAB Movement, in order to mourn the victims of the 9/11 Terrorist Attack in the U.S.

However, Chinese netizens had a different take according to the statements they post on social media:
- "The freedom of speech enjoyed by Morey is the same as the freedom to support the 9/11 [Terrorist Attack]"
- "I support 9/11 Terrorist Attack and the deceased anti-US fighter Bin Laden"
- "I think the 911 incident is a great battle for faith"
- "Support 9/11 [Terrorist Attack], this is justice"
- "I support Bin Laden's operation to maintain world peace"
- "Hoping for another 9/11 every single day"

Some Chinese netizens even attached photos of the burning World Trade Center, which most people would find disturbing.
This came after Houston Rocket's manager Daryl Morey raised concern over the encroachment of freedom in Hong Kong with his social media account.

Not only did Chinese companies threatened the NBA to drop their sponsorships, advertisements and broadcasts; China's state broadcaster CCTV issued an open statement to condemn the NBA (Read here: https://t.me/guardiansofhongkong/8029).
Despite the NBA's commissioner Adam Silver kowtowing to China by apologizing, a huge number of Chinese netizens voice support for the 9/11 terrorist attack on social media platform.
They also demanded NBA to fire Morey for posting "Fight for Freedom. Stand with Hong Kong" on his personal twitter

NBA's Morey is defiant in his support to Hong Kong democracy
In October 2019, NBA team Houston Rockets Director #DarylMorey posted a “#StandwithHongKong” photo on Twitter to show his ardent support for Hong Kong democracy.
Not only did his belief in freedom of speech triggered a storm of intense political dispute, it also almost jeopardized his career in #NBA.
In an interview with Apple Daily published on Dec 23, 2020, Morey expressed that he came to understand Hong Kong’s predicament from his EMBA classmates. He decided to show his support to Hong Kong on Twitter.
When being asked whether he regrets his action, Morey paused for a few seconds and responded, “I am comfortable with what I have done.”
Although Morey didn’t regret showing his support to pro-democracy protesters in Hong Kong, he was concerned about the safety of his wife and his children. “I have been dreadfully worried. I was lucky to have many people offering me assistance to handle this incident. If possible, you won’t want to antagonize the world’s second strongest country … .” Morey said.
