By an Irish Practitioner

(Clearwisdom.net) On November 13, 2006, several Falun Gong practitioners from Ireland, England and Scotland set out on a week-long car tour. The car tour was to rescue Falun Gong practitioners being persecuted in China by traveling through the six counties of Northern Ireland. At the same time, the car tour also exposed the atrocity of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) removing organs from living Falun Gong practitioners for profit.

The car tour started from Newry County Down. When they arrived at a destination, the practitioners would go to local councilors and media telling them that Falun Gong practitioners are being cruelly persecuted in China, and about the brutal nature of the CCP. A councilor from Newry wrote a letter in reply to Falun Gong practitioners, saying that he had already seen the persecution of Falun Gong on TV and he was going to call on other councilors to pay attention to the CCP organ harvesting of Falun Gong practitioners.

When clarifying the truth in Derry, though it was raining, local people were lining up, waiting their turn to sign the petition opposing the persecution. Such a scene was quite moving.

In Omagh County Tyrone, two Falun Gong practitioners went straight to the local Q101 Radio Station to clarify the truth of Falun Gong being persecuted by the CCP, and relate the purpose of this car tour to the host. The host immediately interviewed the practitioners and reported the news the same day.

The last place was Armagh. The activity of the day was about to end and practitioners were ready to leave when a local young man walked over and asked, "May I sign the petition?" A practitioner took out the petition right away. The young man signed his name first and then asked his girl friend to sign the petition expressing their support for Falun Gong.

At every destination Falun Gong local people responded warmly to the practitioners. One after another, they showed their sympathy and concern for Falun Gong practitioners who are being persecuted in China. They said that they felt it hard to imagine the persecution those practitioners are facing. Some people wanted to offer help by donating some money directly. The practitioners of the car tour thanked them saying, "We don’t accept money. What we are doing is just clarifying the truth to people so as to seek support from people all over the world and to end the persecution as soon as possible."

Within the duration of this car tour, though it was very cold and often raining, practitioners remained firm. Bad weather could not shake their resolve. Their only wish was to clarify the truth of Falun Gong being persecuted and to reveal the brutal nature of the CCP to everyone in Northern Ireland in order to stop the inhuman and bloody persecution launched by the CCP.
