(Clearwisdom.net) On December 26, 2005, at about 8 p.m., a woman practitioner about 50 years old was talking to two people near the Eighth High School on Aiguo Road in Weifang City. Night study was just over and students were walking past the trio. Two male students about 15 years old overheard them talking. One of them shouted immediately, "Seize the Falun Gong (practitioners)!" They turned back and confronted the woman. The taller student did not say anything, just walked up her and suddenly hit the woman's face so hard she was slammed to the ground. Then he shouted, "Who let you talk about Falun Gong?" The two people who were talking to the women were so scared they left immediately. The woman just got up from the ground. The two male students immediately came up behind her and beat her again. She was hit to the ground again.

The woman said, "Why are you students are so brutal! Why do you hit me? Did your teachers teach you to beat people? Did Falun Gong hurt you? My illness was cured after I practiced Falun Gong, and I benefited from Falun Gong." She told them, "Falun Gong taught me to be a good person and to do good things. Falun Gong is persecuted." She struggled to stand up.

The two male students came up to her again and continued to drag and hit her. They said, "We won't listen to you. We just listen to our teachers. If you talk about Falun Gong, we will beat you." They continued beating the woman for more than 20 minutes. By then, many people had started to crowd around the scene. Some of them were students from the Eighth High School. The onlookers were very indignant at these two students, but because they didn't want to get into any trouble, everyone just stood there, talking and sighing. Two female students about 14 or 15 years old sympathized with the innocent woman. They stepped forward to stop the two male students, "Please stop! Are you crazy?" as they helped the woman up slowly. They cried and said, "Are you all right? Let us take you home." The woman's clothes were full of dirt and dust. Her hair was in a mess and her face was swollen.

On January 6, 2006, at about 9 o'clock, a 62-year-old woman was clarifying the truth to a middle-aged man and a student at the intersection of Aiguo Road and Victory Road. She gave them a brochure about Falun Gong. Some students from the Eighth High School who had just finished night study and were going home suddenly started to yell, "Seize the Falun Gong! Call the police immediately!" A male student on a bicycle chased the woman. A guardrail in the street separated him from the woman. He stopped the bicycle, chased her, and lassoed the woman's neck with the bicycle chain. He pulled the chain and dragged the woman by the neck, then kicked her viciously. The woman was towed down to the guardrail. The other students also shouted and yelled at the same time. The woman struggled helplessly and said, "You children shouldn't bully old people. I am as old as your grandma. You are committing a sin!" No matter what she said, the student did not stop.

By then, two middle-aged women were passing by and saw the situation. They came up and asked the student, "What are you doing? Don't you have parents and grandparents in your home? Stop it!" The student stopped and left with the other students. The two rescuers were concerned about the old woman and asked, "Are you all right? Is everything ok?" The old woman said she was ok, and they all went home separately.

When one of the women who had stopped the student walked to the corner of Furong Street, those students turned back and caught her. Five or six male students surrounded her and started to beat and kick her brutally. They said, "You are with that old woman. You are also Falun Gong (practitioner). We will call the police to catch her!" The woman was beaten down to the ground and rolled over on the ground. After beating the woman, this group of students swaggered away.

After the foregoing woman got home, her son saw she was black and blue, and dust was all over her clothes. He asked what happened. When the woman told her son what had happened, he was very angry. He asked his mother to tell him what the students looked like and he would go to the school and teach them a lesson. The woman told her son calmly, "Practitioners cannot fight evil with evil. Practitioners should tolerate and advise others to be good. The children are innocent. They do not know the truth because of Jiang regime's propaganda and lies. The teachers in the school were deceived and were used by the evil to mislead the students and made the students become assailants. We should not hate the students and the teachers in the school. We should tell them the truth. I believe one day they will understand this." His mother's words calmed down her son down and avoided a fight.

When state terrorism is introduced into peaceful school campuses, when good people who cultivate their hearts toward compassion are hated, when teachers and students are driven away from school for believing in "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance," when human morality is undermined and human nature is destroyed, where will the country end up?

How children are educated and influenced also affects millions of families and parents' hearts. A child is just like a blank sheet of paper. What the society and the family give to him will become what he is and will influence his entire life. Whether to use "sincerity, kindness and tolerance" or "lies, hatred and narrow minds" to educate the next generation is a huge social question facing Chinese society. Chen Zhili, Minister of Education Department, closely followed Jiang Zemin and launched the large-scale persecution of Falun Gong throughout the whole educational system. Her actions caused surprisingly serious problems within the Chinese educational system, putting that important system, so crucial to the future of the nation, in a very precarious state!

On China's 9.6 million square kilometers lands, hundreds of millions of kind and selfless people are practicing "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance" under very difficult circumstances. No matter whether people understand and trust them or not, no matter how important they are in people's hearts, they treat people selflessly, honestly, and kindly. Even if they are beaten, insulted, brutally tortured, or even lose their lives, they never hate or complain. They only have one goal, which is for people to make a right judgment in front of good and evil, right and wrong. They tell people the truth of Falun Gong with perseverance. They let people know how to be good. They use their blood and lives to wash the dust away from people's hearts and wake up their consciences.
