Hong Kong: There Will be Blood

On Sunday, July 21, protesters even vandalized Beijing's liaison office in Hong Kong.

While they did so, screams rang out: "Free Hong Kong!" "Save Hong Kong!" "Freedom for Hong Kong!" Beijing responded with threats to bring in the People's Liberation Army.

Hired thugs in white have begun to violently attack the unarmed pro-democracy protesters in black, while the Hong Kong police have refused to respond.

If you live in Hong Kong long enough, you come to understand that the police is one of the most corrupt institutions in the city.

Beijing wants the world to stay out of its business and allow it to control Hong Kong as it sees fit, regardless of any past agreements.

The Hong Kong agreement, in China's view, is not actually about maintaining a pact with Great Britain.

What the world is witnessing now in Hong Kong is a city-state, much like Monaco, desperately seeking to escape from the clutches of communist control, a fight that has grown and evolved into calls for absolute freedom, the freedom to choose.
