Mr. Shi, a retired teacher, said that the Chinese Communist Party should respect basic human rights and people's lives. He suggested that people should boycott the Olympic Games to be held in Beijing in protest of the CCP's crimes. Mr. Wu said that he likes Falun Gong, because just looking at the exercises gives him a peaceful feeling. He said that he would support the human rights torch relay. Mr. Shi, a businessman, told the practitioners that he learned about Falun Gong from newspapers and has seen practitioners doing the exercises in parks. He knows that a lot of people have benefited from practicing Falun Gong. Mr. Lin said that he didn't know about the persecution until today, but from his time working in China, he knew that people did not really have freedom in China.
A tourist from England watched the practitioners' activities. She said that she would post the information she learned today onto her website and help more people know about it. Three Russian tourists also watched the activities and signed their names to support Falun Gong.
