It's too bad these protestors aren't armed.

Who knows; maybe the HK democracy movement will end up like Polish solidarity and be one of the seeds that brings the downfall of the CCP.

"It's too bad these protestors aren't armed."

HK was a gun control zone for the entire duration of it's time as a UK colony. They are big believers in gun control (do you remember "Braithwaite's" speech to Bruce Lee in "Enter the Dragon?") and for that reason, any real attempt to become independent from the mainland will be doomed to fail. They are already slaves in their hearts. It will be a sad replay of Tiniamen Square.
