Jimmy Lai: Jailed by Communist China While Fighting for Freedom in Hong Kong

Published

2 minute read

From Stossel TV

Hong Kong was the freest place on Earth. Then the Communists took over and thoroughly oppressed it. Jimmy Lai is in jail for saying Hong Kong should be free again.

Suppose you were a billionaire, or multi-billionaire. A repressive regime takes control of your country and threatens you with jail. You can go anywhere in the world, live in luxury. Or stay and go to jail. Jimmy Lai chose jail.

A documentary from the Acton Institute called “The Hong Konger” lets Lai explain why he chose jail.

The Bee-pocalypse: Another Scare Story the Media Got Wrong

Published on

From StosselTV

Have you heard? The honey bees are dying!

At least, that’s what the media and big money- hungry environmental groups want you to (bee)lieve.

About 20 years ago, some American bees died from “colony collapse disorder.” The media soon warned of a “bee-pocalypse” and that it might devastate our food supply.

But while the media was in a buzz, beekeepers adjusted and rebuilt their colonies. Since then, there are 31% more bees in America.

Do the media stop their fearmongering? NO! The scare just won’t go away.

Our video is here to tell more of the story.

Protecting Free Speech: The Early Warning Signs From Around The World

Published on

From StosselTV

We Americans take free speech for granted. But if you look around the world, you see why we shouldn’t.

In Britain, you can get arrested for saying things online that police find “offensive.”

In Scotland, misgendering someone can land you in jail for seven years.

Canada may soon pass a law that would punish “advocating genocide” with life in prison.

Now in the U.S., the House of Representatives voted for a bill that would make chants like “from the river to the sea” illegal at universities.

These are bad ideas. Free speech is valuable.

After 40+ years of reporting, I now understand the importance of limited government and personal freedom.
