Falun Gong vs. Zhongnanhai2007-03-04 22:36 ID:MZdjH8cy
Once upon a time, there was a sect called Falun Gong. It was like a lot of other qigong societies, with a Master and a bunch of folks doing stupid physical exercises - stuff that was harmless but not really helpful. Someone on Chinese TV or media said as much, and the Falun Gong people didn't want to hear his criticism of qigong. So they protested the broadcast/publication and attempted to censor it. The media refused to budge and called in the cops. So they protested in front of the police station and City Hall. That didn't work either, so they took it to Zhongnanhai and spooked the Communists. The Communists piddled their panties and banned Falun Gong. So the Falun people fled the country to America, and then set up a paper and other stuff making all sorts of semi-truthful claims about the Chinese Communist party. Now both of them are in a shouting match, and it's getting a bit annoying. SOMEONE PLEASE TELL FALUN GONG AND THE COMMUNISTS TO SIT DOWN AND TALK NICELY WITH ONE ANOTHER! It's even spread to Wikipedia!
