【大紀元2014年04月06日訊】3月30日廣東茂名市上萬民眾和平請願要求取消PX項目，遭到軍警血腥鎮壓，大陸媒體集體對此消聲。網絡遭到全面封鎖。此後連續幾天爆發大規模警民衝突。警方施放催淚彈並開槍鎮壓，數十人死亡，傷者不計其數。
現在茂名全城被武裝封鎖，當局甚至出動了坦克和裝甲車對付民眾。外界媒體無法進入。有茂名市民發出求救信息：「全城被武裝包圍，人人誠惶誠恐，生命危在旦夕」。
為了聲援茂名民眾的正義行動，譴責中共當局的暴力鎮壓，總部設在美國的民主大學於日前在白宮網站設立了支持茂名民眾抗暴的簽名網頁： http://wh.gov/ldAhg，呼請美國政府和國際社會關注茂名正在發生的暴力鎮壓，制止中共的暴行。簽名網站設立後，引起了社會各界的強烈反響，已有超過800人在這份聯署上簽名。
我們呼籲大家行動起來，一起為茂名發聲，對強權說「不」！
以下是簽名信中英文：
「廣東茂名民眾因為抗議PX建設，於3月30日遭到政府武力鎮壓。坦克和武裝力量封鎖了城市，數十人遭到殺害。城市的互聯網被切斷，中國媒體被強令噤聲。我們強烈抗議中共血腥鎮壓茂名和平抗議民眾！要求國際社會介入調查，追究凶手責任！每一個簽名，就是一份力量！」
“For decades, they have lived far below comfort zone with unbelievably exploited living standards, and became the world's cheapest labor for our material affordability. NOW! They are yelling for HELP! Their lives are being slaughtered because of a peaceful demonstration against building a PX chemical factory in their city. The people of Maoming City, Guangdong, China Is Under Military Massacre since March 30. Military tanks and armed forces have blockaded the city and killed dozens people. The city’s internet access have been shot down. The Chinese medias have been ordered to be silent.
The people broke through dangerous resistance coming to our country’s internet crying for help. Please help them to make their voice louder.”
