A Falun Gong practitioner once had a happy family. Before she practiced Falun Gong, she had been struggling with all kinds of diseases, but after she started practicing, her illnesses all went away and she was then able to do all kinds of work. Her xinxing (moral character, heart or mind-nature) also improved and she became more tolerant. Thus her whole family lived together harmoniously.
On June 20 2000, she went to Tiananmen Square to appeal for Falun Gong. She was arrested and beaten badly, with black and blue bruises all over her body. The police then sent her to the local detention center where she was illegally detained for a month.
The vicious lies told by the government-controlled media deceived her husband and he started to treat her ruthlessly. Verbal and physical abuse became a common occurence and he would not accept her explanations of the truth. One day her husband pulled her hair and forced her down to the floor, then beat and kicked her, saying, "I'll beat you to death and drag you outside. Then I can claim you had demonic interference and committed suicide." [Note: this is the claim the propaganda and authorities following the Jiang Regime's directives make in order to cover up their persecution and brutal actions against practitioners.] Her ribs were hurting so bad that she could hardly breath. However, her husband's anger was still not totally vented, so he tore up some Dafa books and burned them.
After her husband began slandering Dafa, he developed a painful condition in his hips, but he still didn't feel any regret. On June 2, 2002, he again beat his wife and tried to force her to curse Teacher. She refused. He then tried to force her to sign a letter stating she would give up her belief in Dafa. She again refused. He twisted her arms severely and then beat her with his fists and a broom. She had bruises all over her face and body. Because his legs were partially disabled, she was eventually able to escape with many wounds. As a result, she was forced to leave home to for her safety.
Jiang's political gang has broken up many families, separating wives and husbands, and children from their parents. The deceiving lies from the government-controlled media have incited hatred in the society, poisoned many good people's hearts and damaged many innocent lives.
