Is China Unjust?

     Today we are discussing the arrest of five young women activists in China from police authorities for organizing a protest that would have been held on International Women's Day.  Apparently,  Chinese police officers arrested these five women days before the protest in a coordinated raid. The women were charged for "picking quarrels and provoking trouble". According to the article, this reasoning that the authorities have used to arrest the women has been used many times before. This, "picking quarrels and provoking trouble" has been increasingly used by the Chinese authorities to end activism and discussion of social and political issues. The five young women are currently being detained at the Haidian Detention Center in Beijing and only of them has been able to to meet with a lawyer in person. According to the young women who was able to meet with her lawyer has stated that when the Chinese authorities came to her hour they did not have proper documentation, as in a search warrant or ID's. The lawyer has stated that they will file a complaint under this as there was no proper documents and behavior during her arrest. Why not file a complaint that this is her right under freedom of speech? Does she not have rights that allows her to protest or speak out for her beliefs? Apparently, the protest that was to take on Women's International Day was a call to end sexual harassment on public transportation. They had planned to put stickers in public buses, subways, and other public transportations. These five women are also prominent leaders of activists groups that advocate for equal rights for women, people with disabilities, and people with HIV.

What do you think? Do you think these five women were arrested unjustly? I honestly think that they were.
