Germany: Exposing the Persecution of Falun Gong to the People of Cologne (Photos)

By a German practitioner

(Clearwisdom.net) With Falun Gong practitioners constantly exposing the persecution to people in various places and the German media recently reporting on the issue, the Chinese Communist Party's (CCP) violations of human rights, and especially the hidden facts of trading human organs, people have started to pay more attention to the issue of "human rights in China."

On a weekend in October 2006, Falun Gong practitioners from Nordrhein-Westfalen once again disclosed the CCP’s atrocities of persecuting Falun Gong to people on the busiest streets in Cologne. When collecting signatures, people signed in droves without any hesitation when hearing that it was to protest against the CCP harvesting and trading Falun Gong practitioners’ organs. A phrase heard often throughout the day when passersby saw the petition was "Das werde ich auf jeden fall tun" (This is what I must do)".

The gentleman (right) said to the practitioner, "The world needs people like you."

Many people said that they have seen the related reports on TV and the Internet and it’s hard to believe that this kind of evil is still happening in the world today. Also, some people wondered if these signatures would have any effect. Today people are all concerned with money; will the German government set herself against China for human rights? The practitioners exchanged their understandings of this question with them: We do not want to pressure the German government or the Prime Minister when giving them these people’s signatures; instead, we want to convey the people’s concern about the Chinese human rights issue and their heartfelt wishes to oppose the CCP’s evil persecution. This will be strong support for the German government and the Prime Minister, allowing them to stand on the side of conscience and morality regarding this issue.

The goal is reached gradually and the effect of each little step cannot be ignored, and so is the human rights issue. With one more person understanding the truth, there will be one more force against the evil. Every signature comes from a human heart and there’s no boundary when it comes to human rights. To act against the persecution requires many people’s hearts and effort.

There were many touching stories that happened that day:

A young woman and her husband came to the exhibition board to sign the petition, and the woman broke into tears. A man thanked the practitioners after understanding the persecution happening in China. He said, "I'm glad that there are still good people like you nowadays. The world needs people like you."

A couple of Chinese overseas students passed by the practitioners’ exhibition board, and the boy stood and watched on the street from not far away. When the practitioner gave him some Chinese material, he nodded and received it. When mentioning the CCP's persecution against Falun Gong and the tide of withdrawing from the CCP, he said that he had seen the BBC’s report of China harvesting and trading in human organs. He said that he would think seriously about the issue.

An elderly German woman who had just started to learn Falun Gong four months ago also traveled here from a nearby city. She prepared a file to collect signatures by herself and happily distributed fliers on the street.
