Flushing Resident: "The Time for the Public at Large to Support You Has Begun" (Photos)

July 5, 2008 |   By Minghui correspondent Zheng Xiaowei

(Clearwisdom.net) The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) instigated mobsters to attack Falun Gong practitioners in Flushing, New York beginning on May 17, 2008. Falun Gong practitioners remained steadfast and continued their truth-clarification activities in Flushing. After finding out what happened, the local residents of Flushing took the initiative of supporting Falun Gong and resisting the CCP's evil aggression.

Ms. Zhou from Boston is one of the Falun Gong practitioners who have been clarifying truth in front of the Flushing Public Library. She treasures every opportunity to explain the truth to people, including the policemen who protect the practitioners. She has frequently witnessed how Chinese people choose between good and evil in a single day.

One morning during the last week of June, Ms. Zhou were surprised to see Lewis, an African American policeman she had met two weeks earlier. She said, "I am happy to see you again!" Lewis said, "I will come every day." Another policeman said, "He comes because of your devotion to your cause and your group!"

Ms. Zhou once saw two policemen outside the public library. She was about approach them when policeman A waved his hand. He didn't seem to want to listen. But policeman B had never been there or heard Falun Gong's true story. Ms. Zhou hesitated but started telling policeman B about Falun Gong. Policeman A turned his head toward Ms. Zhou, and the two of them listened carefully. Policeman A expressed his sympathy for Falun Gong and condemned the CCP atrocities. It was the first time policeman B had heard about it. He happily accepted a lotus flower made by Falun Gong practitioners.

Ms. Zhou told the officers that the CCP uses its assistants to frame up Falun Gong. It is hard for Americans to see what is happening. If you don't tell the policemen, it may not be easy for them to see how the CCP is framing Falun Gong. The CCP usually sends a few thugs to start saying bad words. A few others then systematically join in. They are actually acting together, and this is their trick. They lead the deceived people to block the road and make trouble for the police.

A Chinese man came to the front of the library one day and said he had something important to tell Falun Gong practitioners. He said he often visited online Chinese and overseas forums, and he found that during the recent month if he posted articles exposing the CCP's evil persecutory nature and expressed support for Falun Gong, no one deleted them. "You can keep them as long as you want to." He said this hadn't been possible before.

He also found more and more people supporting Falun Gong when talking with his friends. He said, "Those who support you are well-educated Chinese. I found a pattern. The CCP can't find such well-educated people to support itself. It can only convince ruffians and hooligans to support its evil force." He continued, "The time for the public at large to support you has begun. I am very eager to help you, and I will come here every day. When the deceived people surround you, I will step in and talk to them repeatedly. This works very well. I even feel uneasy if I don't come out to confront the CCP assistants every day." When Ms. Zhou told him about her talk with the police officers, he cursed the CCP and said, "The CCP made me learn Russian. If I had known English, I would have talked to the policemen."

Ms. Zhou told another story with tears in her eyes. "An older gentleman told me, 'Falun Gong is uniquely unmoved by honor or disgrace.'" Ms. Zhou was touched that he could clearly tell the good from the bad. The gentleman said he wasn't the right person to do the exercises because he couldn't concentrate, but he admired Falun Gong practitioners for not only being persistent, but also for keeping a very kind and peaceful attitude under a terribly dangerous situation. It was extraordinary. He said he couldn't do that.

The gentleman said, "All I can do now is to collect all kinds of Falun Gong materials. I have all kinds, including the CDs. I managed to give the materials to my friends in China and told them repeatedly about Falun Gong. My goal is to tell everyone I talk to. My relatives and friends used to reject The Epoch Times newspaper. Now they have learned from me how to break through the Internet blockade to read news overseas."
