Police warn of illegal protests against US brands amid sea spat理智爱国：反对打砸抵制外国产品Local police have been taking action to contain scattered protests in China calling for a boycott of US products, especially fast-food restaurants like KFC, as protests continued Tuesday after an international arbitration court ruled against China’s maritime claims last week.地方警察部门已经采取了行动，以遏制中国各地爆发的对美国产品（尤其是肯德基一类的快餐店）的抵制活动。上周一家国际仲裁法庭就南海主权声明一事做出了不利中国的裁决，由此导致了对美国产品的抵制，本周二各地抵制活动继续进行。Dozens of people gathered outside a KFC restaurant in Qinhuangdao, Hebei Province on Tuesday, flashing banners that said Boycott the US, Japan and South Korea; Boycott KFC and McDonalds!
