Yeah I might not doubt that he does..However, we have to be realistic, we should know what we can do in any country we find ourselves irrespective of how we feel. Will you for example protest against Kim Jung Un policies in the streets of North Korea if you were living in North Korea? Lool is that not purposefully setting yourself up for danger/death?Or maybe he indeed loves his country and strongly feels that he has to voice his opinion despite clearly knowing the consequences.
Would you publicly go preaching/evangelising Christianity in the streets of Pakistan/Afghanistan/Iran or even Saudi Arabia? Lol Is that not setting up yourself for danger and even death as well?
All these might sound normal to some or even pretty, but in some countries they can land you in jail/danger/lynching or even death.
I can understand if you know there is a massive movement behind you backing you and many people ready to also take your side to the streets for protest which offers some sort of "relative" protection. In that case, that might still make ABIT(Just a little bit) of sense and you koght stand a chance of making your voice or point heard . However going in alone is just plain stupid , especially in a system that doesn't tolerate such blatant public criticism of their leader/system and which is still a closed political system. So we have to be rational as well.
For example how do you think Mao Zedong would have ended up if he rose up to challenge the Kmt Government by himself ? Lool We might never even have known his name(would jave disappeared like smoke . Lol)
So as much as I understand this man's concern, he has to be aware of the type of country he lives in as well and what he is allowed to do and not. Might not sound right or fair, but then again when has life ever been fair?
