(Clearwisdom.net) On Saturday, December 9, in Myjava's Stefanik Square, several Falun Gong practitioners put up a petition table and displays for an information day in support of human rights. They wanted to raise awareness about the persecution of Falun Gong in China that has lasted more than seven years.

Passersby stopped at the petition table and signed their names in support of human rights. A photo exhibit depicted scenes of the persecution of Falun Gong by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). One of the most common questions was, "Why is Falun Gong persecuted?" People responded positively upon learning that it was due, for the most part, to the jealousy of the Communist regime. At the beginning of the persecution, Falun Gong practitioners numbered more than seventy million people, more than the membership of the Communist Party.

"Give me more flyers, I will spread them along the way," said one lady. Many people couldn't believe that something like this could be happening in this day and time, and they readily signed the petition. More than a hundred signatures were added to the petition during the day.
