Parkland massacre survivor David Hogg has said he “absolutely” felt threatened by Marjorie Taylor Greene when she harassed him over gun control during a YouTube video that has recently emerged.

The gun-control activist said in an interview with CNN on Thursday that the controversial representative “would rather choose to protect guns than children.”

When asked by host Alisyn Camerota whether he took Rep Greene’s remark in the video that she was carrying a gun for protection as a threat Mr Hogg responded: “Oh absolutely.”

He added: “But you know what I was saying to myself Alisyn is that if they shoot me they prove my point. And the reality is they can’t kill a movement.”
