A freedom-loving Chinese immigrant who escaped Communist tyranny in her home country shut down woke, gun-grabbing activist David Hogg with just one question.
David Hogg survived a horrific school shooting by hiding in a closet while braver students faced death to help classmates. Ever since then, Hogg has been exploiting that terrible tragedy to win academic prestige and national fame in his mistaken campaign to target gun ownership instead of the true, root reasons of murder and crime. In fact, Hogg’s Leaders We Deserve PAC is currently mired in scandal over spending nearly half of the money it raised ($1.4 million) in 2023 on travel, consultants, legal fees, etc., and less than $235,000 on its actual alleged mission of getting Gen Z candidates elected. “Gun control” doesn’t prevent criminals from having guns, and it certainly does not prevent the government from imposing tyranny, which is what the Chinese immigrant pointed out to Hogg.
Lily Tang Williams spoke up during an event featuring Hogg in New Hampshire. “Welcome to my ‘Life free or die’ state,” Williams began, referring to the state’s motto. “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.” Indeed, as Williams’ numbers highlight, the late Chinese Communist Party (CCP) dictator Mao Zedong was by far history’s worst mass murderer, and the CCP continues to enforce genocidal policies today.
Williams went on, “So my question to you, David, is that—can you guarantee me, a gun owner tonight, our government in the U.S., in D.C., will never, never become a tyrannical government? Can you guarantee that to me?” Hogg responded honestly for once: “There’s no way I can ever guarantee that any government will not be tyrannical.” Williams shot back, “Well, then the debate on gun control is over because I will never give up my guns. Never. Never. And you should go to China to see how gun control works for [the] dictatorship of the CCP.”
As Williams so brilliantly and succinctly pointed out, American wokies are living in a fantasy world—but if America continues its current trend of becoming more like CCP-run China, these useful idiots will find out the hard way why their policies are so disastrous in practice.
According to CrimeResearch.org, between 1998 and May 2022, a whopping 9 in 10 mass shootings occurred in gun-free zones (it’s 94% if you measure 1950 to 2022). In Chicago, which has some of the strictest gun control laws in the nation, residents have a 1-in-15 chance of being shot by age 40. That’s “gun control” in action. Founder Thomas Jefferson once quoted Cesare Beccaria, “The laws that forbid the carrying of arms are laws of such a nature. They disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes…. Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants.” But also, as fellow Founder George Mason noted, disarming the population is the easiest way of enabling a despotic government to achieve tyranny.
The Founding Fathers knew that the right to keep and bear arms was the single most important right in fighting off encroaching tyranny from one’s own government. Lily Tang Williams knows from hard, personal experience that a disarmed populace is easy prey for authoritarians. Fortunately, more Americans are realizing that the Founders and Williams are in the right, and that fools like Hogg with their “gun control” are only proposing Orwellian dystopia under another name.
