Many tourists were shocked upon learning that something as horrible as forced organ harvesting was taking place in the 21st century. “It's a shame!” said one French tourist.
Many passersby signed the petition calling for an end to the atrocities and support for the filing of lawsuits against Chinese former dictator Jiang Zemin, who launched and directed the persecution of Falun Gong in China.
Some of the tourists encouraged Falun Gong practitioners to keep up the good effort to raise awareness, and expressed their solidarity with the practitioners, “We are together with you!” many people said.

A yoga teacher from the United States did not understand why the Chinese regime persecutes Falun Gong. A practitioner explained Falun Gong to her, an ancient spiritual practice that has benefited millions of people around the world, and the persecution launched by Jiang Zemin that has persisted for 16 years. In particular the Communist Party has gone so far as harvesting organs from living Falun Gong practitioners for profit. The lady solemnly signed the petition.
