Q for HK PSers. Are the protests as bad as what we hear in the US?

Hi @Dancing Fire I do have someone in mind who might be able to help, he specializes in family and probate law. I just spoke with him briefly about your case over the phone (I hope you don't mind!) and he's confident that it can be done.

Thanks Angel I'll contact Jon.

Best of luck and hope you can get back control of the property soon! There has been speculation that the property market will be affected by the protests but who knows.

Somebody is "misinformed" about the HK protest . James have no idea what is going on in HK.

LeBron James says NBA exec was 'misinformed' in his tweet supporting Hong Kong protests

LeBron James has long spoken out on social justice issues, such as in his advocacy for the Black Lives Matter movement, his criticism of President Trump as a "bum" and his push to be "more than an athlete."

I have a feeling that if China is going to go all Tiananmen-tank they may choose to do so sooner rather than later since the current presidency seems more likely than any future one to not intervene, at least based on all the recent Syria news. I wouldn’t be surprised if China is mindful of what “unfavorable” changes may occur with the next US election in terms of how likely the US would be to try to intervene in some way if China were to use more force against HK.

I go to China yearly as my parents live there. I definitely remember after the last election that many Chinese seemed happy about trumps victory as they saw him as a “business man” who could be “reasoned with” to stay out of Chinese business vs Clinton. Also there was a serious sense of schaudenfraude from many Chinese people I met who considered trump pretty dumb and reveled in “see what democracy gets you? An idiot for president.” Insert smug smile.

I'm all for peaceful protests, but it is wrong to destroy properties all over the city. IMO, This protest will not end pretty it has been going on for too long with a lot of HKners involved. I'm afraid it'll only end with bloodshed on the street.
