We are holding a sit-in to protest the neglect shown to us by the government.

This is a peaceful protest ... the government must listen to us.

The last two nights we have spent in open maize fields.

It is very cold out here. Even the firewood is wet and not burning, and there is a scarcity of kerosene.

The Chinese government firmly supports and protects, in accordance with the law, all legal protest activities, ... We believe that the broad masses will, proceeding from the fundamental interests of the nation and taking the overall situation into account, carry out the activities in good order and in accordance with law.

The government should not spy on groups engaging in peaceful political protest. The FBI should focus its efforts on actual threats and not target people because of their political views.
