The FLG movement started some years ago here in Denmark, and =
although their demonstrations have been peaceful throughout the country, =
their methods of recruitment have not been so docile. They have started =
posting themselves outside Chinese supermarkets to hand out their Epoch =
Times and ask for donations, and their methods of making you talk to =
them have been very aggressive and not the least bit pleasant. They =
would insist that you give them your name and address as well, no doubt =
to knock on your door a la Jehovah's Witnesses. Ever since I heard of =
Epoch Times here in this newsgroup, I actually got one and took it home =
to read. Well, it was like reading any other religious magazines, except =
