By Wang Ying, Minghui reporter from San Francisco
(Clearwisdom.net) The California Service Center for Quitting the
Chinese Communist Party (CCP) held a celebration activity at Garden Corner
Square in San Francisco at noon on January 14, 2007, to support the more than 17
million Chinese people who have quit the CCP and its affiliated organizations.
San Francisco Divine Land Marching Band also made an appearance in Chinatown to
show support and add zest to the rally. The Minghui School dance team also
presented performances, attracting many passersby to stop and watch. The square
was filled with a festive atmosphere. During the rally, many people passing by were attracted by the
performance given by Falun Gong practitioners at Garden Corner Square in
Chinatown The California Service Center for Quitting the CCP holds a
celebration activity at Garden Corner Square in San Francisco to support the 17
million Chinese people who haave quit the CCP and its affiliated organizations Divine Land Marching Band appears in Chinatown to add zest to
the rally A young practitioner from the Minghui School take part in the
celebration Parade was held after the rally along the main streets in
Chinatown The host of the rally, representative of the North California Service Center
for Quitting the CCP Ma Youzhi, said that more than 17 million Chinese people
have quit the CCP and its affiliated organizations. "This is a day worth
celebrating, but there are still many Chinese people who have been deceived by
the CCP evil specter. We hoped to let everybody hear what the Chinese people
have to say through this rally and see clearly the nature of the CCP." Representative of the North California Service Center for
Quitting the CCP Ma Youzhi speaks Mr. Ma said, "The CCP has killed more than 80 million Chinese people in
the past, and it is still enslaving our compatriots. Today, we are here to hold
this rally to support and celebrate more than 17 million Chinese people that
have awakened to the truth. We also hope that more Chinese people will
awaken." A company manager: "The straw that breaks the camel's back" Senior manager of a hi-tech company in the Bay Area Mr. Wang Feng used an
English idiom "the last straw" in talking about those that have
withdrawn from the CCP. He said that the number of people who have quit the CCP
as of today is 17 million. Nobody knows at which number the CCP will collapse.
But the issue is, when "the last straw" does bring about the collapse
of the CCP and you still have not quit, there will be no more chances for you to
quit, and you will have to bear the mark of the beast imposed upon you by the
CCP forever. Wang Feng also said that nobody wants to be the last, single straw because it
is too dangerous. Due to the Internet blockade, only about 30,000 people have
announced their withdrawals [on The Epoch Times website], but many people
more want to quit the CCP and its affiliated organizations. Just like before an
avalanche, it will then be very dangerous for you if you do not quickly withdraw
from the CCP. Wang Feng mentioned the CCP's heinous practice of harvesting organs from
living Falun Gong practitioners. This evil organization, the most evil and
brutal organization in history, has killed 80 million Chinese people, and it
still continues to kill even now. Shouldn't people be quick to break away from
this wicked organization? Dr. Zou Wei: Completely eliminate the bloodsucking CCP Dr. Zou Wei said that since the CCP seized the power over 50 years ago, it
has never ceased extracting the Chinese people's sweat and toil, particularly in
the past ten years, China has introduced huge foreign investments, high-rise
buildings, and large mansions in its cities, which are in the midst of constant
construction. On the surface they look prosperous. The average Chinese citizen,
by this time, should have made great progress, but ordinary Chinese generally
feel much more pressured than before, and their living standards are actually
becoming worse. They dare not see doctors when they fall ill, their children
dare not go to college [because of high tuition fees], and many people cannot
afford to buy their own homes. Zou Wei recounted that some friends said that, although they know the CCP is
no good, how could the Chinese people live if the CCP collapsed? Dr. Zou gave an
example of a patient with schistosomiasis (parasitic flatworm infestation) that
went to see a doctor. The doctor said only by removing the schistosomes from his
body would he recover. If the patient said, "Doctor, if you remove the
schistosomes from my body, how can I live?" everybody would think that this
patient had something wrong with his mind. Chinese people have a history of
5,000 years. For over 4,900 years, China was not ruled by the CCP, but the
people got along just fine. During the CCP's fifty-odd years in power, many
disasters have befallen the Chinese people. Without the CCP, the Chinese people
will live even better and more wonderful lives. Falun Gong practitioner Shu Nan: More than 17 million withdrawals from the
CCP is the best reason to celebrate the New Year Falun Gong practitioner Shu Nan said, "At the beginning of 2007, we are
here to congratulate more than 17 million brave Chinese people who have
withdrawn from the CCP and its affiliated organizations. It is the best reason
to celebrate the year 2007." Shu Nan talked about the significance of
quitting the CCP from the perspectives of China's Constitution and safeguarding
human rights. He said that the large-scale human rights movement in China
started in the late 1990s, and it is no coincidence that the great wave of
quitting the CCP started during that time. Shu Nan said that many overseas legal experts have studied China's
constitution and discovered that, as written, it is better than those of many
foreign countries. The catch is that China's constitution has "four
adherences." Shu Nan said, "Requiring adherence to the leadership of
the Party, the CCP put itself above the constitution. As a ruling party, it can
do as it pleases and violate any provision in the constitution; it can legally
break the law. Therefore, the constitution becomes a worthless scrap of
paper." Professor Xia complains the CCP with his own experience Professor Xia from the Bay Area said that she was only eleven years old when
the CCP started ruling China. The CCP beat and killed people, one group after
another. The deepest impression she has was the anti-rightist movement in 1957.
Her respected teacher was deemed to be an enemy for no reason. One teacher, Mr.
Wang, taught Marxism. He said one sentence: "Marxism is like a cup of plain
boiled water, but is not as thick as tea." As a result, he was labeled a
rightist. Two of Mr. Wang's friends from the Northeast of China were also named
Wang, and they often got together. They were labeled the "Three Wangs'
Anti-Revolutionary Group." Professor Xia said that such an example is
enough for people to see the true nature of the CCP. She hoped the Chinese
people would be brave enough to stand up and renounce the CCP and disintegrate
it.
