Are problems in Hong Kong not an internal PRC problem today? I would expect protests to be dealt with as in Tiananmen Square.


Basically the pommy pricks screwed another group of people...they do that.

Yeah, they should have kept ALL of their empire, instead of allowing all the rif raf to migrate to England. Hong Kong was on a 99 year lease. The lease expired and they returned it per the agreement. The (sic) Pomms have a nasty habit of honoring commitments.

A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…”
