Only in Hong Kong

From the AP, “Pro-democracy supporters in Hong Kong have sharply criticized the proposal last week to enact a national security law that would ban secessionist and subversive activity, as well as foreign interference, in the semi-autonomous Chinese territory. Critics say it goes against the ‘one country, two systems’ framework that promises the city freedoms not found in mainland China.” Hong Kong is the only nation-state that cares about democracy while other democracies willingly give up their freedoms.
