(Clearwisdom.net) Czech Falun Dafa practitioners organized a week-long tour around the cities of central Moravia so that the people there could learn more about the ongoing persecution of Falun Dafa practitioners in China. The persecution has already lasted eight years, and over 3,000 practitioners have had their lives taken by the Chinese communist regime.
On Thursday, March 22, the fourth day of their Moravian tour, the practitioners arrived in Zlín and told local people about crimes against humanity happening in China. Many people were not aware that over 3,000 innocent people have lost their lives just because they practice this peaceful meditation system and live their lives by the principles of "Truthfulness, Compassion, Tolerance." They did not know that the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has waged a vicious persecution against the 100 million Falun Gong practitioners in China and that hundreds of thousands have suffered abuse, illegal imprisonment, or torture for upholding their beliefs.
The practitioners demonstrated the Falun Gong exercises and handed out leaflets to passers-by
The practitioners adopted various methods to help people understand Falun Gong and stand on the side of justice against the human rights abuses inflicted on practitioners in China: they manufactured several banners showing torture methods used in Chinese prisons, they handed out leaflets, and they talked to passers-by. They also performed the five sets of Falun Gong exercises, which showed the contrast between the peaceful nature of the Falun Dafa practice and the horrors of the persecution.
Around 200 people signed a petition calling for an immediate end to the organ harvesting from Falun Gong practitioners imprisoned in China
People who passed by the activity that day heard about Falun Dafa practitioners being tortured and murdered in China. Most of them were shocked. About 200 citizens of Zlin signed their names on the petition, and there were many who expressed their concern and their support for practitioners in China.
