Brickbat: Giving the Respect It Deserves

A pro-democracy protester in Hong Kong has been sentenced to four months in prison for insulting the Chinese flag and unlawful assembly. Tony Chung, 19, tossed the flag to the ground during a protest outside the Hong Kong legislature. Chung is awaiting trial on a charge of secession, which could carry a life sentence.

Winnie the Pooh’s lucky his head doesn’t have to secede from the rest of his soft, honey-infused body. The way he’s been pulling an Auschwitz maneuver on Eeyore’s people, and now there is his treatment of Piglet and his folks, despite agreements to not bother Piglet for another 20 years.
If Christopher Robin weren’t such an eminent wuss, too obsessed with cheap plastic trinkets and selling an extra billion tickets to Avengers Endgame and it’s inevitable sequels, Chris would tell the Hitler/Stalin imitating ursine to go eat poo.

That was silly, but I applaud the effort. Too few try.
How great it is that we live in a country where we're free to insult, trample, burn or otherwise dishonor our national flag! Now, the BLM flag or the Rainbow flag, that's another story. As it should be! As it should be! I'm in no way suggesting that our sacred flags should be dishonored! Not me!
Fuck those communists. Just remember, Communist China originated the wuhan coronavirus that has killed nearly 400K Americans. And have apparently gotten off scot-free.
China must pay a severe price for what they have done.
It's a tacky flag anyway. I mean, two primary colors together?
Glad to see that a knowledge of proper heraldry is not dead!
Civil liberties under a Left wing regime.
Biden's paymasters.
The left is about to make the CCP look restrained and measured.
I'm so glad I live in a country that celebrate political differences and doesn't actively stifle opposition.... Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
I couldn't say that with a straight face
When did “secession” become another word that means “I don’t like you”?
I suppose throwing a flag down made him a sexist racist fascist Nazi, too.
Reason must be getting kickbacks from all these spammers
I wonder what they would make of Chinese flag diapers. My guess is Poo Bear would need a Huggies.

What is "I'am" a contraction of? Who really cares about a lousy $84 and I think you're tapatalk malfunctioned, was 8254 supposed to be vaji, taki, ucki, or something? Of course IM is an online business, what instant messaging app isn't? Definitely stick to being a student and take an English class or nine and I think you meant "Hear what I say". I mean at least run the bot through google translate or something before posing.
