    But that does not support what you said.

    Article - 'condolences to the family'
    You - 'condolences to the attacker'

    I am sure it was an error on your part to accidentally conflate the two and not intellectual dishonesty.

    The mainland influencers who are leaving Vitasoy all seem to be especially "resolute"

    Not a hike goes by or a visit to a beach where we don't pick up some purple capped plastic bottles. Even though it's not Coca-Cola or Nestlé, I have still always despised vitasoy and their lack of accountability for the product packaging that makes the company so financially successful. They've caused quite some damage around Hong Kongs nature. So, unfortunately I won't take up this chance to buy shares when so low...

    I try to draw a parallel with the terrorists in the states who murder dozens of children and then kill themselves, but... Hmm...somehow it doesn't add up.

    Now we've got flower police!

    Coolboy and hike like this.

    But I get what you mean and I guess the concerning thing is that the law is so vague and it really depends on the authorities interpretation (and how much they hate you).
    When there are European tourists again, I suspect we could have a fun game of selling T-Shirts with banned slogans in Chinese on them. Wonderful to watch the police decide if they should arrest the white foreigners.
