France: Anti-Torture Exhibition to Raise Awareness in Caen (Photos)
(Clearwisdom.net) On July 9th, we arrived at Caen, the third stop on our tour of Normandy province. We set up a display stand and anti-torture exhibition in a park in the city centre. It was a sunny and breezy weekend, with passers-by streaming through. The anti-torture exhibition, in which practitioners simulated the methods of torture used against Falun Gong practitioners in China by the communist authorities, deeply touched the hearts of passers-by.

 Learning the truth |
After viewing the photos, a student from Nigeria sighed, "In my country there are corrupt officials who deprive people of their belongings for their personal interest. However, there have never been any physical atrocities like these against our own people. The persecution is really ridiculous."
After hearing the facts of the persecution of Falun Gong, a couple finally came to understand why a foreign student from China, whom they had known for ten years, never wanted to go back there and even arranged to meet her parents in Hong Kong instead of Mainland China. This dictatorship and brutality of the CCP is the root of all injustice.
Several high school students signed the petition to express their objection to the persecution of Falun Gong. They wrote down this message of support: "[The persecutors] should show respect for human rights and should let Falun Gong practitioners regain freedom. China should give its people freedom just like France. There should not be any discrimination."
One of the police officers patrolling the area near our stand also signed the petition to express his support.
Upon seeing the two "injured" ladies simulating torture methods used in China, many people showed worry, surprise or indignation. Some children didn't even dare to look at the "evil policeman" reenacted by a practitioner. Human's nature to resist violence and brutality was vividly demonstrated by the innocent children.
All of this humane care for others told us: Lies and violence can never defeat kindness, which is deeply rooted in people's hearts.
