Jimmy Lai is a hero for humanity as he resists the Chinese government's oppression.
Hong Kong is a different place now, under the thumb of Chinese premier Xi Jinping and his CCP apparatchiks who have no respect either for Hong Kong tradition or law or international standards of human rights.Lai was arrested on trumped up charges and detained because his life represents the possibility of human freedom that the Chinese government both fears and loathes.
“For them, it is unbelievable that someone who has great wealth is standing up for liberty,” Sebastien Lai said.What the communists missed about Jimmy Lai is what they miss about all of humanity — that the human spirit longs for its natural freedom, that human beings seek to live for more than this life, that we are made to reach for a greater good.Lai is a man of deep faith, and his son told us this sustains him. He embodies the admonition that Jesus gave the apostles that they not be afraid.
