"Peace" as a core value?

in Hong Kong, we are enjoying a long peaceful period after the 70s. the number of violent had been reduced and decreased.  Thanks to the peace, our society moves on and develop into a modem, wealthy state.

Nowaday, after the return to  mainland china, everything is changing. the so called "50 years non-changing" is a total liar. Since the government was elected by the "1200 nominated people from china, which some idiots think it is good to represent 7.5 million people". the voice from the people were never been listened. Moreover, government is practicing policy brutality to reduce people right and freedom through the slip of the laws. She intend to reduce to protests and other opposite voice within the law. Say, police will provoke the protesters and make the protest become violent. no matter the police or the protesters act first, the police can say that they are "forced" to cleaning the place to restore the order. futhermore, government has proposed a "re-election scheme for resigned legislators, who we have the right to vote for". in fact, the re-election scheme is a replacement scheme. whoever resigned, the 2nd highest votes holder will automatically replace the resigned one. this is totally bullshit.

a simple example to illustrate the situation in HK. imagine a family, the parent only take care of one brother (say, John) and treat badly and unequally toward the other brother (say, Sam) ( no mean for sexual discrimination, you are free to replace the brother by sister ). however, the badly treatments are totally within the law, say,  John is allowed to play PS3, xbox, eat steak, but Sam can only do housework,  eat KFC, or just the vege, which as a side-dish of the steak and left by John.

when Sam want to talk, demands equal right, OK, their parent pretend to have conversation, but situation unchanged afterward, sometime even harder. one day, Sam refuse to obey, and he smash the household, tear the sofa. Now, the parent punish Sam, and said, "peace" is the core value. you cannot violent "peace".

same in today newspaper, after some parties break the conference hall of "the replacement scheme" in violent. and the Government pop out immediately and said, "we have to protect the core value of Hong Kong, the peace. and we deeply condemn the violent."

when i heard people say "peace" is the core value of Hong Kong or even to people, i was so shock. What?? when does the China's "Harmonization" become favorite?? peace never and should not be a core value, but "freedom" and "equal right"! without freedom and equal right, what is the meaning of peace??? hah??
