The essence of democracy lies in respecting the will of the majority, and it must follow some basic principles, such as reasonable discussion, peaceful negotiation and accepting the results, which is evident in a number of countries. The "Occupy Central" organizers are trying to impose their will on that of the majority, and have taken radical means for their selfish political interests; what they are doing is not democracy but "mob-ocracy", which will only lead to the decline of Hong Kong.

How could a small group of people, who put their narrow interests beyond those of the people, get popular support? How could their political usurpations, which are against democratic principles and disrespect rule of law, be echoed by international media? The failure of "Occupy Central" best shows that they don't represent Hong Kong people's will and any effort by them to kidnap Hong Kong is doomed to fail.
