on many Americans, at least on those who called in Washington post's TV program while i was watching this Saturday morning. Falungong's legal council Erping Wang (?) answered questions from many callers. They all praised her courageous act and her good conscious. Some even offered their own reasoning that she may be breaking laws in US and be put in jail here in Washington but it is for a higher calling. I believe a lot of listeners were most impressed by her credentials as a medical doctor and a longtime advocate and investigator in medical ethics about organ transplant dealings in China. Her father died last year and Chinese authority refused her request to attend funeral etc etc...
