A gun control debate recently took place on the campus of Dartmouth College and anti-gun activist David Hogg was one of the participants. At one point during the Q&A session, a woman explained that as a survivor of communist China, she would not be giving up her guns in America.
This was great.
The Daily Caller reported:
David Hogg Gets Lesson About Gun Control From Chinese ImmigrantGun-control advocate David Hogg got a crash course on the purpose of the Second Amendment from a Chinese immigrant in a video posted to social media Thursday…“Hi, my name is Lily Tang Williams,” Williams said in the video fo the debate posted to YouTube. “Welcome to my ‘Live Free or Die’ state. Actually, I am a Chinese immigrant who survived communism, and under Mao, you know, 40 million people were starving to death after he sold communism to them and 20 million people died… murdered during his Cultural Revolution. So, my question to you, David, is can you guarantee me, a gun owner tonight, our government in the US, in DC, will never become a tyrannical government? Can you guarantee that to me?”“There is no way I can guarantee that any government will not be tyrannical,” Hogg, who has called for banning certain semi-automatic firearms he labels as “assault weapons,” responded…“Well, then, the debate on gun control is over because I will never give up my guns,” Williams said, adding that Hogg should visit China to see how the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) used gun control.
Watch the exchange below:
Lily Tang Williams is running for congress as a Republican in New Hampshire this year.
She posted the following on Twitter/X:
I am Lily Tang Williams. I was born in China to illiterate working-class parents, suffered under Mao’s Cultural Revolution and Communist dictatorship. I wanted freedom. America was my promised land.I was 23 when I fled tyranny. Arriving with $100 in my pocket and knowing very little English. I worked hard to make my American dream come true. Today I am happily married with three children, have my own businesses, and live in the Granite State where the spirit of liberty resides. My concern is that my children and grandchildren will not have the same opportunities I had.I see the shadow of authoritarianism cast by politicians who have locked us down, closed small businesses, inflated our money, and mortgaged our children’s future. I saw it all before in China: the division of society, silencing dissident voices, taking away parental rights, the indoctrination of youth, endless government mandates and control. People are losing their rights to make a living and make their own life choices. Are you worried yet? I am.I fear that the country I love is becoming like the country I left.
Given the rise in crime in recent years, I don’t know why anyone is even taking gun control issues seriously anymore.
