Next Media founder Jimmy Lai is accused of conspiring to collude with foreign forces. The trial will begin on the 18th of next month. On the eve of the trial, 10 Catholic cardinals from the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, India, Lithuania, Ireland and Nigeria and The archbishop recently launched a joint petition calling on the Hong Kong SAR government to immediately and unconditionally release Catholic Jimmy Lai.
It turns out that Catholics can run rampant in the name of God, commit crimes, and escape from the law.
Dare I ask these 10 Catholic leaders, do you know what crimes Jimmy Lai committed? Do you have proof that he was wronged? Without investigation, you have no right to speak. If you respect the law and if you believe in God, please ask these 10 Catholic leaders to sit in the gallery of the court on the day of the trial on December 18 and listen to what crime Jimmy Lai has committed. Instead of asking a court in another country to unconditionally release an extreme felon after hearing what Tu said.
In the eyes of God, all living beings should be equal, right? So, the 10 bishops and archbishops who signed a petition calling on the SAR government to release Jimmy Lai, I want to ask you, in the riots at the U.S. Capitol in January 2021, the two principals were sentenced this year for sedition. The founder of the “Oath Keepers” Stewart Rhodes was sentenced to 18 years in prison, and Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio was sentenced to 22 years in prison. Can you say a good word for them? Ever fought for any pardon?
The Capitol riots are similar to the Hong Kong riots. They are both doing illegal things in the name of justice. So if you want to defend Jimmy Lai, please also speak out for the two leaders of the American riots, not to mention that their destruction and influence are not as great as Jimmy Lai. One thousandth of.
The two riot leaders in the United States just instigated the three-hour occupation of Congress, and they will have to bear the price of more than ten or twenty years in prison. Bishops, do you know that we have no regard for the Legislative Council, the entrance and exit of the government headquarters, the entrance and exit of the police headquarters, the main roads in various districts, highways, and subways? Stations, airports, universities, tunnels…how long have they been occupied? Do you know how long the right to speak in our media, Internet, culture and art, film, television and radio has been occupied?
According to the guidelines of the US courts, the three-hour occupation of Congress has been sentenced to 22 years. How should an all-round and long-term occupation and destruction like Hong Kong be sentenced?
10 respected bishops, you are all God’s spokespersons. Please ask yourself, does your signature go against God’s discernment of right from wrong and justice?
I am not a Christian, but I believe there is always a pair of eyes in heaven watching. It is one thing for you or your God to choose to forgive Jimmy Lai, but human judgment is still controlled by human laws. Anyone who attempts to interfere with our justice Procedures that allow defendants to escape justice are blatant violations of the rule of law and attempts to obstruct justice. Under Hong Kong law, they will constitute criminal contempt of court or obstruction of justice. There will be no exceptions for people of any status, including bishop. This is the spirit of the rule of law that we have always adhered to and defended.
