7th May State Assembly
Apart from that, Hee also attacked a handicapped state member of the Pakatan Rakyat with pepper spray. With obvious evidence of a photo and recordings, Hee remains ignorant and insisted that she was just holding on to a handy drive. A video uploaded to YouTube clearly shows her holding and using pepper spray in the direction of assemblyman Yew Tian Hoe, not a handy drive as she has claimed earlier. She claims she was only holding it up to demand if Yew was the person who threw the pepper spray at her although video recordings clearly show her not uttering a single word to Yew during the incident. She also claims not to know how to operate the device although she seems to operate the pepper spray without flaw as seen in the same video.

Famous quotes containing the words state and/or assembly:
“... liberal intellectuals ... tend to have a classical theory of politics, in which the state has a monopoly of power; hoping that those in positions of authority may prove to be enlightened men, wielding power justly, they are natural, if cautious, allies of the “establishment.””
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
“That man is to be pitied who cannot enjoy social intercourse without eating and drinking. The lowest orders, it is true, cannot imagine a cheerful assembly without the attractions of the table, and this reflection alone should induce all who aim at intellectual culture to endeavor to avoid placing the choicest phases of social life on such a basis.”
—Mrs. H. O. Ward (1824–1899)
