HONG KONG -- Hong Kong's Victoria Park was once the site of annual candlelight vigils in memory of the bloody crackdown on unarmed students and other pro-democracy protesters in central Beijing. But on Tuesday, the 35th anniversary of the violence, the park for the second year in a row was instead occupied by stalls selling mainland Chinese delicacies and souvenirs -- a five-day "carnival" organized by a pro-Beijing organization.
