(Clearwisdom.net) On April 25th 2006, Falun Gong practitioners from the North German towns of Bremen, Hannover and Hamburg gathered at the Chinese Consulate at the Elbchaussee in Hamburg, to call public attention to the seven-year unrelenting persecution of Falun Gong practitioners in China by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).
This protest by the Northern Germany Falun Gong practitioners aimed at exposing the CCP's systematic organ harvesting of living Falun Gong practitioners. Large banners, which could be seen by occupants in cars driving on the busy Elbchaussee, spoke of the crime perpetrated in China. Many cars can be seen daily driving on the Elbchaussee, Europe's longest street, on their way to work, and the drivers are already familiar with Falun Gong demonstrations. Many slow down so they can read the messages on the banners.

The practitioners demonstrated the Falun Gong exercises to the harmonious and peaceful exercise music. The contrast between the peaceful meditation exercises of Falun Gong, a practice based on principles of Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance, and the gruesome persecution against innocent people by the CCP was quite noticeable. It showed clearly that the CCP does not hesitate to use any method to retain sole power over the Chinese people.

The protest took place throughout the day. Many Chinese and Germans visit the Consulate during opening hours in the morning. Our being there allows them to hear and see the truth of the persecution. The practitioners who work in the day attend the protest in the evening to send righteous thoughts. In the morning, one of the practitioners rang the bell of the Consulate to deliver an appeal letter to the Consulate. In the letter, the Northern Germany practitioners advise the Consul and the Consulate staff to distance themselves as soon as possible from the CCP and not to be further implicated in the crimes being perpetrated in China.
