    I am sure there is going to be a "sport exception". But if they somehow bring the flags outside the stadium...well, all bets are off. That's the problem with this draconian and incoherent law. Criminalizing normal behaviour can produce rather perverted results.

    I think the color black will just be outright banned.

    Does anyone else think that the introduction of all this odious Mainland-speak/thinking reflect fears that if after the passage of the NSL, there are still significant protests, they would be at their wits’ end?

    The more the sound and fury...

    Since no one has seen it either, wouldn't his comments and the other local shoeshiners' comments also be wrong and misleading?

    The law is going to be passed. That much is certain. It is inconceivable that the CCP and the pro-establishment will generate so much ruckus only for it to be withdrawn at the last minute. That would be an unacceptable loss of face. The only question now is what the aftermath will be on HK.
