Our Local Police Officers Know the Truth and Treat Practitioners Kindly

By a practitioner in China

In February 2002, I went to Beijing to appeal. I was arrested and police officers from my local area brought me back to my hometown. They told me that it was a right thing to appeal. All Falun Gong practitioners are good people. We do not want to detain you. The detention center is for bad people. We will let you go home. Sure enough, an hour later, my family came and took me home. Later they frequently came to my home. They never took any Dafa books or materials. They said: "If we took your book, you could not study the Fa any more. It is good to try to be a good person."

One time I went to other places to distribute materials which clarify the facts about Falun Dafa and was caught by policemen there. My local police came to take me home again. Despite pressure from their superiors, they tried their best not to arrest me. In 2001, a high level office organized a brainwashing class and designated certain practitioners to attend. Our local officers tried everything they could to protect practitioners. While practitioners in other areas have been illegally detained, arrested, or kidnapped to brainwashing classes, we can study the Fa [Books of Falun Gong] and practice the exercises at home every day. Sometimes the police even asked me to write my cultivation experience to show other people. Whenever higher level authorities issue orders to persecute practitioners, they always inform us to be careful. I also often went to the police station to tell them the truth about Falun Gong. I told them the principle that good will be repaid with good and evil will be returned with evil. I also gave them some Dafa materials. Later they returned all the money that higher level authorities had extorted from practitioners. For three years, they have never said anything to denounce Falun Dafa and Teacher Li.
