        Protesters CRIMINALS? Ha Ha Ha ... I wonder if whether the act at Tiananmen Square back in 1989 of running Military Tanks over young adults and children and KILLING them to safeguard the LUXURY and WEALTH of THE BABOONs ruling China was HOLY or CRIMINAL?

        This characterization of an entire nation of people shows a lack of both an ability to respect the opponent, and the wisdom to judge the situation w a measure of self awareness. Neither bode well for China fighting many fires all at once.

        Now, even Taiwanese are questioning the protests in HongKong because it looked more like rioting. Any police anywhere will do the same as what HongKong police did. The current events changed even Chinese Malaysians and Singaporeans support from the protestors to the police.

        Love the defaced CPC crap-logo. The distribution of images like these will drive the Chicoms nuts. It's just plaster and paint (or more likely plastic since it's made in China), but the symbolism is powerfully subversive.

        Call it as it is...It's not a protest anymore. It's a riot.
