Let people go!

I believe Shanghai has a road named after the city of Urumqi. It was the gathering place for a memorial of the fire victims and then escalated from there to the larger protests.

This is Falun Gong. They are out there every day protesting the CCP but they also run a very far right news paper the Epoch Times here in the US. I am not going to get involved in who is correct because both the CCP and Falun Gong are nuts

No, the group spray painting and protesting on Tuesday was huge, had younger people, and was there at night. Different from Falun Gong, who are usually gone by late afternoon and are a smaller group.

The Canadian government froze American bank accounts?

There was a rather large demonstration for the Chinese community in front of the consulate and when more and more protesters arrived, on the pier. Apart from protesting against the regime, it included a vigil for the victims of that fire. https://youtu.be/s2i6lxBwdrA

NYPD is frequently parked outside the consulate. I’ve always wondered why China doesn’t provide its own security there.

Exactly. China would also need to register their security personnel with state department.

Probably shouldnt have a dictatorship that routinely force disappears people who say bad things about the government have any kind of security here.

CIA black sites: sweats nervously

CIA black sites are terrible but they arent filled with people who said mean things about the president like China
araararagi-san t1_iyl87m3 wrote
they're filled with innocent people who didn't say anything but were mistaken for someone else by American intelligence
