Because people living in PRC are people and deserve the right to govern themselves.
Hell, the principle that the people are the rightful rulers is part of the PRC's name.
The people living there include those on May 35th that died for the freedom to choose who they vote for, as well as those in Hong Kong who are still frequently kidnapped.
