(Clearwisdom.net) The persecution of Falun Gong by the Chinese Communist Party has lasted over 10 years. In China, practitioners of Falun Gong continue to face spiritual and physical persecution and even death. Recently, the Falun Gong Human Rights website reported a number of recent persecution cases in China. These cases show that practitioners are enduring cruel torture, including beating, electric shock, drug injection, slave labor, etc. The website then received many comments from readers. Below are just a few of them:

It is most painful, poignant and tragic to read these true to life stories of torture and murder of men and women of conscience for wanting to follow a spiritual practice of elevating their mind nature, moral character. Compared to 9/11 which is termed "Terrorism" where the governing State apparatus can monitor the safety of the citizens and punish the terrorists, this is the worst kind of Terrorism. It is committed by an autocratic state against its own most vulnerable people, because they are peaceful and spiritual.
When an authoritarian State perpetrates this on its own people, by holding itself above the rule of law and the State-controlled media bad-mouths and ostracizes a ring-fenced group of prisoners of conscience, it is no different than genocide.
I applaud the courage of conviction of these vulnerable spiritual practitioners.

The crimes of the Chinese communist government against peaceful followers of Falun Gong are crimes against humanity and as such deserve our strongest condemnation and action. Nobody should conduct any business with the perpetrators of such crimes and they should stand trial for their actions. I hope and pray that all Falun Gong followers in China will be free soon.

Stop the persecution of this very good and peaceful practice. Stop the violation of human rights of all groups. We can not keep silence! We should tell the truth as it is and not as it is shown by china oriented mass media. They misinform the world on a large scale.

The mistreatment of innocent human beings must stop. [The Chinese Communist regime] is just as bad as the Nazis who killed and persecuted the Jews in WW2 for no reason other than their religion.
This is another genocide which must stop now. May God smite [the Communist regime] for doing this. This is not about religion but more so of the disgusting treatment that these innocent people endure because they believe and practice Falun Gong.
Stop the persecution now!!

Stop the persecution of peaceful practice. This crime of the Chinese Communist Party against humanity must be punished.
