Because it is the right thing to do

On June 9, I landed in Hong Kong at 3PM, dropped my bags at home around 4PM, met with some church friends at PolyU at 4:40PM, took a bus to go to Victoria Park, arriving at 5:30PM.  

At 6:00 PM, we exited Victoria Park.  

We inched along Great George Street. 

Hennessy Road.

We went past the offices of a pro-establishment newspaper, with big billboards promoting the Extradition Bill. 

Around 8:30PM, we arrived at the corner of Harcourt Road and Cotten Tree Drive.  We tried but couldn’t get to the Central Government Complex.  So we stopped and went home after dinner.

Why did we come out to march?  Not really because we think our action will induce the government to withdraw the Extradition Bill.  It is simply because it is the right thing to do.  It is just not right to see a patently oppressive act and do not voice our objection.  I do not believe in violent action, but we should at least make our position clear peacefully. That is the least that we can do.
