    Everyone is guilty of assault

    https://www.hongkongfp.com/2019/10/0...e-loudspeaker/

    Pro-democracy lawmaker Au Nok-hin has been charged with two counts of assaulting police with a loudspeaker at a protest in July.
    Au and Civic Party lawmaker Jeremy Tam were arrested on August 30 on suspicion of obstructing the police in Mong Kok during a clearance operation in the early hours of July 8. The accusation was dropped when the pair reported themselves to the police on Thursday. Au was instead charged with assaulting police with a loudspeaker which was too loud, hurting officers’ ears.
    This is probably the loudest urban environment in the world. Everyone can be arrested now for being too loud!

    I never used to understand Kafka, until now.

    Walking through the fog of tear gas residue, disoriented, dazed and confused, having completely lost confidence in our legal apparatus, convinced of our helplessness and the inevitable downward spiral, the only thing I could think of was Joseph K.

    Kafka’s books don’t make sense, unless you live in the kind of society that makes no sense.

    It also helps me feel better about being called a cockroach.
