    That’s some titanium grade bullshit right there.

    If he’s doing a perversion of Justice, maybe the justice of West Taiwan is the perversion itself.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    HONG KONG (AP) — A Hong Kong man who was shot by police during pro-democracy protests in 2019 was sentenced Wednesday to 47 months in prison on charges of rioting, assaulting a police officer and perverting the course of justice, in the latest court ruling that severely punished participants in the anti-government movement.

    He hid in various locations in the city with assistance from members of a YouTube channel that was critical of the Hong Kong government, and then attempted unsuccessfully to flee by boat to Taiwan.

    Yim also sentenced two other defendants who skipped their court proceedings and hid with Tsang, one to 10 months in jail and the other to a correctional training center.

    The 2019 protest movement was the most concerted challenge to the Hong Kong government since the former British colony returned to China’s rule in 1997.

    The government later withdrew the bill, but the protesters widened their demands to include direct elections for the city’s leaders and police accountability.

    The unrest eventually waned with the arrests and exile of democracy activists, the COVID-19 pandemic and Beijing’s imposition of a tough national security law on the territory.
