(Clearwisdom.net) Jiang's regime has violated many laws, twisted legal definitions and confused the general public's understanding of China's laws. To this day, there has been no evidence to show that Dafa practitioners are criminals or have broken any laws. The Chinese police system is now restructuring its police forces. We personally think this is a direct result of changes in the cosmic phenomena. We would like to make a suggestion to Dafa practitioners who have been persecuted: we should oppose the persecution from the legal viewpoint to suffocate the evil and protect our own legal rights. Let us write down our personal experiences of being persecuted in detail.
When we write this type of report, we should separate our personal experiences from our understandings of the Fa. It is because our target readers are not fellow practitioners but ordinary people. We should separate the personal, dictatorial deeds of Jiang's regime from the Chinese government; we should separate the "610 Office," [an agency specifically created to persecute Falun Gong, with absolute power over each level of administration in the Party and all other political and judiciary systems.] which is an illegal entity that is above the laws and was established outside of the legal system, from China's existing judicial and legal system; we should separate the crimes that Jiang's regime is responsible for from the criminal deeds of individual police officers that violate the laws and torture practitioners; we should separate the vast majority of good police from the small number of evil police. We should identify those officers that torture practitioners and then sue them individually for their criminal deeds. We shouldn't allow anyone to hide behind the government and the police system and let them think that their persecution of Falun Gong is legal or justified. Even though the evil once sent out an oral decree saying that it doesn't matter if Falun Gong practitioners are beaten to death, and that the deaths of those practitioners who are beaten to death will be treated as suicides, it didn't dare to issue an official decree in writing. From this, we can see that even Jiang's regime doesn't dare to leave behind direct evidence of its crimes and that what they are doing isn't in line with China's Constitution or criminal laws.
We feel that we should go beyond our mistaken notions when it comes to legal matters. Even though the Jiang's regime as a group has committed crimes against Dafa practitioners, its dictatorial power can't protect individual members who have committed crimes. We have the right to file criminal complaints, lay charges, and report their crimes. We also have the right to sue them in civil courts and ask for compensation for our suffering. We should use laws, the lowest form of expression that Dafa has given to us, to punish them one by one. This way, we can shock the evil, lessen the persecution, and increase our intensity of validating the Fa. The followings are suggestions on what we should do specifically:
(1) Describe the details about what happened and present the evidence in a skillful and proficient manner. When we describe the language, demeanor, and actions of the people that tortured us, we should carefully describe what happened and make the images come to life for the reader. We should use basic words to facilitate the readers' understanding. If we just write our experiences in very general terms, the readers might feel we are making things up in order to get sympathy. In the past, when we wrote articles describing our personal persecution experiences, we often didn't include detailed information about the criminals who tortured us (for example, we didn't write down the names and phone numbers of the people involved, we often referred to them collectively as policemen). We didn't include detailed information about the torturing (for example, when, where and how we were tortured and details of the torture methods). We didn't include the tools that were used to torture us, how we felt while we were being tortured, or how much pain we felt both during and after we were tortured. If we want to bring the responsible police officers to justice, we must write down this information giving as much detail as we can. We must also pay especial attention to the fact that we write these articles for an independent third-party to read. We must remain objective and factual. Our tone must be even and calm. We should refrain from adding comments or opinions.For example, being force-fed is a very painful torture. In many articles, practitioners simply wrote that they were force-fed. They didn't include enough description on the whole process of being force-fed, how painful they felt at the time, and how painful they felt afterwards. Because of it, they were unable to describe the depth of the evil. If we were placed in isolation and given nothing to eat but watery soup, we should describe the soup, the small quantity we were given each day, how long we were locked up in such a way, what kind of additional abuse we received while locked up, and what happened to us afterwards. If we were beaten, we should write down the names of the people that beat us, what they said while beating us, what language they used to humiliate us, the implements used to beat us, which body parts they hit, how long the beatings lasted, the names, shapes and structures of the tools, how inhumane the methods were, how much pain we felt while being beaten, and what happened to us after we were beaten. We should also write down how much time passed before we stopped feeling dizzy and regained the ability to walk or normal control of our own bowel movements. Although certain police didn't beat us themselves, by ordering inmates to humiliate, beat, and abuse us, they still committed the crime of "causing harm to those that were in their custody." Therefore we must also describe how we were beaten by criminal inmates under police orders.
(2) Even though some police didn't physically abuse us, they still extorted money from our family members and us. We should also record these details. For example, we should say how much money we were forced to hand over, how they harassed and threatened us in order to get money from us, and what personal property they took from us. If our family members were forced to host elaborate banquets for them, we should write down how much money was spent. We should also say whether we were physically forced into giving them money or just threatened or deceived by the police.
(3) Dafa practitioners should courageously file their complaints with the appropriate government agencies. It is illegal to torture criminals who have committed actual crimes, and Falun Gong practitioners are not criminals as we have not broken any laws. The torturous methods that certain police use to get repentance letters do not follow China's criminal laws and the perpetrators have committed serious crimes. When people extort money or material possessions, they also violate China's laws. We should sue them individually for their criminal deeds. If practitioners all over China would do this, the effect would be very powerful.The magnificence of Dafa practitioners isn't manifested by enduring the evil persecution. It is manifested by stopping the evil, opposing the evil, exposing the evil, and saving everyone that can possibly be saved. Therefore, we should not be confused by the fake acts of kindness of a small number of police officers to the point where we feel we are being impolite if we expose their evil actions. If we behave this way, we are being restrained by human sentimentality. We can't think a certain person is good just because he treats a small number of us well. How is that any different from the ordinary human sentiment of saying someone is good because he treats us well and saying someone is bad because he doesn't treat us well?
