Almost all press focus on the fact that there are two millions people on the street and the possibility of power abuse caused by this bill.
None of them pay any attention to pros & cons of this bill from a rational perspective. People barely remembers that the origin of this bill is to extradite one brutal killer of a Taiwan girl. No one is seeking middle ground or constructive result.
People see, people fear, people destroy, without any regard to pragmatism and rationality. Great.

- song 7y agoIt was the brutal killing of a HK girl not a Taiwan girl. The murderer killed his girlfriend while traveling to Taiwan for Valentine Day. Also Taiwan's government has explicitly stated that this bill is not needed to bring the murderer to justice and that this has only been used as an excuse to pass this law. Additionally Taiwan said that if the bill pass they would refuse to use it to bring this murderer to justice as they are against this bill. And finally, per the bill, the central government of the country need to approve the extradition. China doesn't recognize the central government of Taiwan so as per the law community in HK, it's not sure how this bill could ever be used in cases like that murder. So, yes people have discussed it, people have their facts straight about this bill.
