Well, first of all, i disagree with the fact that you say that authorities are scared. the authority is basically just carrying out a law. this national security law is not something that s exceptional to hong kong. every country in the world has their own national security law. so if people are trying to jeopardise our national security, then, according to law, the enforcement agency has to take actions. these people are arrested and put to jail, not because of the political stance, but because they have broken the law. some of them has notjust broken the national security law, some of them has engaged in violent protests, has engaged in vandalism, has engaged in incitement. all of these are common law offences that britain has left in hong kong when hong kong was still a colony of britain, so. ....
