Speaking of civil rights, any guesses as to what would happen to the average Chinese citizen that attempted any these same feats while in China and this time at PLA bases?
What if non-citizens tried?
In some of the reports that happened at the U.S. bases describe in the article, the security forces were probably well within the rights of the law to use deadly force to stop the trespassers [1]

- throw_5467634 7y agoFrom my experience, Chinese police and authority in general are extremely lenient on first time offenders. You will usually get a stern lecture and warned never to do it again. If you’re a non-citizen, you’ll probably be monitored for awhile. However if you continue to get in trouble, then the punishment can increase exponentially. Strangely, in some cases, they would just take you on a vacation [1] to get you away from the area. 1. https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2018/12/24/chinas-bizarre-program-to-keep-activists-in-check https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2018/12/24/chinas-bizarre...
