Upon learning what Falun Gong is, one woman became very interested in the practice. After learning that the practice is being persecuted in China, she said in surprise that such persecution is unacceptable and signed the petition to support Falun Gong.

A gentleman from Maryland said he knew of the CCP's persecution of Falun Gong and the peaceful protest of practitioners during the past ten years. He said, "You are doing great. Very courageous. Keep going!"
