Arrr, in the court o’ Hong Kong, a band o’ brave souls be sentenced to the dank brig fer years on end, fer tryin’ to stir the pot o’ democracy! Benny Tai be swingin' in the wind fer a decade, while young Joshua gets a measly four! Avast, me hearties, what a farce!
Ahoy, me hearties! Gather 'round as I spin ye a yarn from the bustling seas of Hong Kong, where the winds of democracy be blowin' quite a stormy gale! A court, as stern as a captain with a mutinous crew, has shanghaied a band of 47 brave souls, known to us as the Hong Kong 47, for daring to dream of a fair election. Aye, they be sentenced to rot in the brig for nigh a decade, with our good matey Benny Tai catchin' 10 years of hard labor and young scallywag Joshua Wong bein' tossed into the clink for over four!These landlubbers were conspirin’ to hoist the Jolly Roger of opposition candidates against the powers that be. But alas, the law be as unforgiving as a kraken’s embrace! A total of 45 of these brave souls now find themselves in chains for the dastardly crime of subversion. Just two of ‘em had the nerve to plead innocent, but even a parrot could see the winds were not in their favor!
So raise a tankard of grog to these brave souls, for they fought the good fight against the stormy seas of tyranny! May their spirits sail free, even if their bodies be stuck in the brig! Arrr!
