(Minghui.org) The persecution of Falun Dafa in China started in July 1999. During the past 19 years, Falun Dafa practitioners have peacefully resisted the persecution and clarified the facts to those who have been ordered to carry it out. Some of them have understood the truth and are no longer involved in the persecution.
Practitioners talked to a local police officer who used to arrest and beat practitioners, and his attitude changed.
One day some practitioners were sitting together sending forth righteous thoughts when one of the practitioners realized that the officer was looking at them. Worried about the others' safety, she said to the officer, “You can't do bad things.” He replied that he was just looking and then left. All the practitioners returned home safely.
The same police officer told the practitioner on a different day, “I saw you with other practitioners carrying bags with Falun Dafa materials. I followed you for a while but didn't arrest you.”
Another time, several practitioners were concentrating on handing out Falun Dafa informational materials and didn't notice a police van parked across the road. When they finished giving out their brochures, they saw the van. The police, however, didn't arrest them and just drove away.
A practitioner was arrested at a market for talking to people about Falun Dafa and taken to a brainwashing center. When the center refused to accept her, she was taken to the local police station, where the police asked her to tell them more about Dafa.
One officer said, “Who still wants to arrest Falun Dafa practitioners?”
In the end, police called the local residential office to arrange for someone to take the practitioner home. The people from the residential office also asked the practitioner to tell them more about Falun Dafa and the persecution.
