Anecdotes about Failed Anti-Falun Gong Signature Drives

College Signature Drive Ignored

In a famous northeastern teacher's college located near Changchun City, a long row of tables were set up just outside of the cafeteria during lunch time. Each of the tables had a long white cloth covering the top and a lot of pens and markers were laid out to be used for signing the tablecloths. There was also a propaganda bulletin saying that the petition was against Falun Dafa. It is a new campus that is yet to be completed with about 6,000 people using this one cafeteria. You can easily imagine the amount of people going in and out of the place.

However, very few people signed the cloth. A student in charge decided to start dragging people in and out of the cafeteria to sign, but many people were disgusted instead and many of them openly refused. This signature drive from set-up to clean up lasted only half an hour. The white cloth pretty much remained a white cloth.

A Joke at High School Signature Drive

At a northeastern town's experimental high school, another signature drive was taking place. Every class was to send four students to sign. Based on prior experience, these four students are the best in the class in terms of grades and obedience to teachers. There should have been no problem at all. To everyone's surprise, many signatures were in the names of some famous singers and actors from Hong Kong and Taiwan. The school authorities had no other choice but to turn these kinds of signatures in.

Children Refuse to Listen to Pressure or Propaganda

Children who understand the true facts about Falun Gong employed unique means to resist signing such heartless petitions. For instance, a third or fourth grade student from a northeastern town's experimental elementary school was asked by a teacher to sign her name against Falun Dafa. This student knows that Falun Gong is good. She was not going to sign, however, she didn't want to disobey her teacher's order either. She got an idea that if she broke the tip of her ballpoint pen on her way to school, then her pen would not write. It was a bit chaotic with activity around the scene and she decided on the spot that even if she makes a mark, she wouldn't write her name. When her turn came, she scratched into the white cloth "Falun Dafa is Good." More surprisingly, many children left marks on that piece of white cloth and the words they wrote were "Falun Dafa is Good!"
