Scientology Tools - Riverside County, CA Conspires with Cult to Deny Rights

So when Riverside Country Supervisors pass an ordinance instigated by Supervisor Jeff Stone's comrades from the local Scientology slave labor compound known as "Gold", who are you going to call when protesters are arrested in the area the Supervisors said would not be effected by the legislation for targeted residential picketing?

1. Tommy Davis, the current favor sock puppet PR jockey for the commercial empire that calls itself a church. OR...
2. The local Cult-friendly County Mounties from the Sheriff's Department.
3. How about Both?

If you guessed option 3, then congratulations - you've been paying attention to what one resident who commented on yesterday as "Chicago-style politics" during the epitome of incompetence that happened when the Riverside County passed Ordinance 884.

Highlighted in the photo below from AngryGayPope, Tommy Davis and Catherine Fraser discuss the semantics of which peaceful protester would get bagged in the immediate wake of the latest chapter of County Supervisor Jeff Stone's Footbullet Fiasco following the meeting.

Pre-show Theatrics served ala Fraser

Prior to this parade of injustice carried out as the Sheriffs department blocked the entry way to the cult compound, Catherine Fraser pictured above on the right clutching a stack of papers, had made the following remarks during the most recent chapter of the ongoing Riverside County meetings.

I just love this culties use of "vexatious litigant" as she winds up to do her part of spinning the usual Scientology Dead Agenting campaign against their so called "SPs" or perceived enemies. Ironic how the first thing out of their mouthpieces is always accusations of the dirty tricks the organization has mastered themselves decades ago.

Despite having the breaks clamped down on her spin doctoring at the meeting by County Supervisors, it seems that ultimately Catherine would make sure she had the last laugh when the protesters who attended the meeting showed up to peacefully demonstrate their concerns regarding the cult's coercive practices and abusive policies.

Act One - Featuring Tommy Davis Corruption Du Jour

The following videos captured what happened next.

Mark Lowell Arrested at Gold Base from Angry Gay Pope on Vimeo.

Mark Lowell is arrested at Gold Base for doing nothing more than being there. This after the Riverside Board of Supers said we could protest here unmolested. The police went out of their way to nag the small group of victims' rights advocates until somebody got arrested.

Mark Bunker (Wise Beard Man) Arrested at Gold Base for Tresspassing from Angry Gay Pope on Vimeo.

The second half of an absurd video in which the police fish around for reasons to arrest people until they semi-randomly arrest Mark Bunker aka Wise Beard Man. AKA Emmy award winning long time Scientology protester who has tangled with them legally before.

As explained in the video above, Supervisor Stone actually got something right for once - ordinance 884 would not be used to arrest protesters as Scientology's armed compound. At least not on this day.

Act Two - Classic Fair Game Showcase

Instead, the cult's guard shack lackey Catherine Fraser made a CITIZENS ARREST on Wise Beard Man and one of his fellow protesters. The same bitch on wheels bent for vengence on the podium at the supervisors meeting that was later clutching a stack of papers while her and Tommy Davis negotiated the day's arrests with the Sheriffs who were blocking their driveway whilest coming to the destructive cult's rescue once again.

Hmmmmm. Makes one wonder just what were those papers Catherine was flailing before she had the Sheriffs issue her citizen's arrest on the peaceful protesters that were deemed to be "blocking ingress and egress of the driveway" according to the cop's allegations before the arrests. The photo below is a blown up version of those documents Catherine was using to brief the arresting officers, click image to enlarge if you wish to verify the simple facts found therein that are summarized below.

Upon closer inspection of this photo, the legalsleeze investigative unit of Anonymous discovered that Catherine's pre-arrest outline included the following information.

Intentional Interference with the Public or Public Employees

California Penal Code § 602.1. (a) Any person who intentionally interferes with any lawful business or occupation carried on by the owner or agent of a business establishment open to the public, by obstructing or intimidating those attempting to carry on business, or their customers, and who refuses to leave the premises of the business establishment after being requested to leave by the owner or the owner’s agent, or by a peace officer acting at the request of the owner or owner’s agent, is guilty of a misdemeanor, punishable by imprisonment in a county jail for up to 90 days, or by a fine of up to four hundred dollars ($400), or by both that imprisonment and fine.

(b) Any person who intentionally interferes with any lawful business carried on by the employees of a public agency open to the public, by obstructing or intimidating those attempting to carry on business, or those persons there to transact business with the public agency, and who refuses to leave the premises of the public agency after being requested to leave by the office manager or a supervisor of the public agency, or by a peace officer acting at the request of the office manager or a supervisor of the public agency, is guilty of a misdemeanor, punishable by imprisonment in a county jail for up to 90 days, or by a fine of up to four hundred dollars ($400), or by both that imprisonment and fine.

(c) This section shall not apply to any of the following persons: (1) Any person engaged in lawful labor union activities that are permitted to be carried out on the property by state or federal law. (2) Any person on the premises who is engaging in activities protected by the California Constitution or the United States Constitution.

(d) Nothing in this section shall be deemed to supersede the application of any other law.



Freeways and Expressways: Use Restrictions

California VEHICLE Code, § 21960: (a) The Department of Transportation and local authorities, by order, ordinance, or resolution, with respect to freeways, expressways, or designated portions thereof under their respective jurisdictions, to which vehicle access is completely or partially controlled, may prohibit or restrict the use of the freeways, expressways, or any portion thereof by pedestrians, bicycles or other nonmotorized traffic or by any person operating a motor-driven cycle, motorized bicycle, or motorized scooter. A prohibition or restriction pertaining to bicycles, motor-driven cycles, or motorized scooters shall be deemed to include motorized bicycles; and no person may operate a motorized bicycle wherever that prohibition or restriction is in force. Notwithstanding any provisions of any order, ordinance, or resolution to the contrary, the driver or passengers of a disabled vehicle stopped on a freeway or expressway may walk to the nearest exit, in either direction, on that side of the freeway or expressway upon which the vehicle is disabled, from which telephone or motor vehicle repair services are available.

(b) The prohibitory regulation authorized by subdivision (a) shall be effective when appropriate signs giving notice thereof are erected upon any freeway or expressway and the approaches thereto. If any portion of a county freeway or expressway is contained within the limits of a city within the county, the county may erect signs on that portion as required under this subdivision if the ordinance has been approved by the city pursuant to subdivision (b) of Section 1730 of the Streets and Highways Code.

(c) No ordinance or resolution of local authorities shall apply to any state highway until the proposed ordinance or resolution has been presented to, and approved in writing by, the Department of Transportation.

(d) An ordinance or resolution adopted under this section on or after January 1, 2005, to prohibit pedestrian access to a county freeway or expressway shall not be effective unless it is supported by a finding by the local authority that the freeway or expressway does not have pedestrian facilities and pedestrian use would pose a safety risk to the pedestrian.

Act Three - The Trap is Sprung!

So as plainly seen the in the typed up dox in the Catherine photos, the cult was well prepared in advance for this confrontation and took great pains to instruct the Sheriffs how to do their jobs. Angry Gay Pope's raid report noted he witnessed Catherine point to the first innocuous protester standing nearby but well out of the way of the overbearing Sheriffs. But one can't help but wonder if Tommy Davis' orders as an executive-level representative of the Scientology Goon Squad included getting an Emmy award winning journalist falsely arrested once again under blatant collusion.

Oh the irony, the Tommy Davis trap to drive off the peaceful protesters from the cult's armed compound backfired big time when Mark Bunker got arrested. Yes you heard me, the trap - was trap!

How so you say? We now have three thoroughly documented cases of the tainted Sheriffs Department collaborating with the cult to do what they do best - suppress society's basic rights when others fail to recognize their totalitarian beliefs as an authority. Yes the list of "whats wrong with this picture" is a daunting to task to tally, but here are a few of the more delicious options that can be pursued.

US CODE: TITLE 18,241. Conspiracy against rights

If two or more persons conspire to injure, oppress, threaten, or intimidate any person in any State, Territory, Commonwealth, Possession, or District in the free exercise or enjoyment of any right or privilege secured to him by the Constitution or laws of the United States, or because of his having so exercised the same; or

If two or more persons go in disguise on the highway, or on the premises of another, with intent to prevent or hinder his free exercise or enjoyment of any right or privilege so secured -

They shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both; and if death results from the acts committed in violation of this section or if such acts include kidnapping or an attempt to kidnap, aggravated sexual abuse or an attempt to commit aggravated sexual abuse, or an attempt to kill, they shall be fined under this title or imprisoned for any term of years or for life, or both, or may be sentenced to death

US CODE: Title 42,1983. Civil action for deprivation of rights

Every person who, under color of any statute, ordinance, regulation, custom, or usage, of any State or Territory or the District of Columbia, subjects, or causes to be subjected, any citizen of the United States or other person within the jurisdiction thereof to the deprivation of any rights, privileges, or immunities secured by the Constitution and laws, shall be liable to the party injured in an action at law, suit in equity, or other proper proceeding for redress, except that in any action brought against a judicial officer for an act or omission taken in such officer’s judicial capacity, injunctive relief shall not be granted unless a declaratory decree was violated or declaratory relief was unavailable. For the purposes of this section, any Act of Congress applicable exclusively to the District of Columbia shall be considered to be a statute of the District of Columbia.

California Civil Rights Act, Section 52.3

(a) No governmental authority, or agent of a governmental authority, or person acting on behalf of a governmental authority, shall engage in a pattern or practice of conduct by law enforcement officers that deprives any person of rights, privileges, or immunities secured or protected by the Constitution or laws of the United States or by the Constitution or laws of California. (b) The Attorney General may bring a civil action in the name of the people to obtain appropriate equitable and declaratory relief to eliminate the pattern or practice of conduct specified in subdivision (a), whenever the Attorney General has reasonable cause to believe that a violation of subdivision (a) has occurred.

Now granted, any time Tommy Davis the liar shows up, the footbullets of utter stupidity rain down by the truckload. Pity his mother Anne Archer the actress sold his soul to the Sea Org rather than allowing him to go college like a rich, responsible parent who cares for her son's future should... or else he might actually have a clue what is in store for him as party to the corruption of the local police force.

In hindsight, this whole escapade of fail paints Mark Bunker's comments at the Supervisor's Meeting in somewhat eerie deja vu light as seen in the following clip.

Parting Shots - LOL Standing Ovation

Thus, the next chapter of Scientology's Corruption of Riverside wraps up into an entertaining 3 part play, albeit the utter stupidity of is shocking. Desparate cult is desparate. Some highlights from the legendary anti-Scientology attorney and fellow protester Graham Berry are as follows.

I will post at greater length later but the two Marks have been subjected to a citizens arrest for trespassing on what is clearly public property. As importantly, they were arrested in the same location that Scientology's own attorney stated was public property available for picketing. Suffice it to say it is going to be a huge footbullet for the cult and some of the Supervisors. There is talk of a petition to recall Supervisor Stone for a recall election.

This is so outrageous that on the way back AGP and I went to L. Ron Hubbard Way and spent half an hour picketing Big Blue where they all ran inside like rats off a sinking ship.

The first court appearance for the two Marks is April 28.

Graham's Full Raid Report - Part 1
Graham's Full Raid Report - Part 2

Pay Attention Cult. You have now handed us the third Riverside lawsuit where your ruthless history and unethical practices will be picked apart on a public stage while Tommy Davis' ass is on a silver platter via Catherine Fraser's vindictive actions.

Despite your delusional beliefs of being above the law, you have failed to achieve one your Evil Messiah's most important directive:

"Somebody some day will say 'this is illegal'. By then be sure the orgs say what is legal or not." -- L. Ron Hubbard, HCOPL 4 January 1966

Because of this failure, you were doomed to have Gold Base fall under close scrutiny ever since your raging lunatic security guards viciously manhandled a protester and pinned him to the ground during the first citizen arrest in the exact location the Riverside Supervisor repeatedly insisted the activists should use for protesting as it legally allowed under the temporary 888 ordinance. You have now amplified your doom tenfold by once again claiming public property as their own in these latest citizen's arrests for trespassing on public highway.

Go To Change.gov & Vote To Tax the Cult of Scientology

Now is the time the right some wrongs in regards to The Church of Scientology's Unfair Tax Exemptions, and raises our voices in outrage over the the Sklar Tax Case Issue: Ninth Circuit Court Rejects Arguments That Children's Religious School Tuition Should Be Tax Deductible.

Go to Change.gov and vote in Obama's Citizen's Briefing Book to Revoke the Tax Exempt Status of the Church of Scientology

As described on the Social Entrepreneurship Change.org blog:

"The Obama Administration's latest awesome step for a more open and citizen engaged administration is the launching of the Citizen's Briefing Book. The Citizen's Briefing Book gives anyone the ability to post an idea and then vote and comment on others. Pretty simply, the ideas with the most votes and comments will become the core of the Citizen's Briefing Book, which will be delivered to President-elect Obama after he is sworn in."

At the time of this posting, Anons had driven the vote count up by a few thousand points in a few hours with the current total at 2150. Take a few minutes to lend a hand to this fine online effort for great justice and let your vote count too!

UPDATE I: One day later, the vote count is up over 5200. Unfortunately, we almost missed our opportunity for manning this harpoon because the voting closes TODAY at 2pm Pacific Time, 5pm Eastern. So if you read this before the deadline -- hurry hurry and Vote Nao!

UPDATE II: Seems anon's assumption that the 5pm cut-off on Jan 15th for the Change.org related inagural efforts would cut off online voting in the Citizens Briefing Book was wrong. Voting is still open, gogogogooo!

And fwiw - 10 minutes prior to the alledged 5pm cut-off we had > 9000 votes!

Anonymous Activates Operation: You've Got Mail

As our next global protest day approaches, it is only days before our Presidential inauguration. As the US nation is about to make history, let us ask the new President to help us make history.

On today's date, the first online, mail in raid was launched. If by chance you missed the boat on this, it's never to late to speak out.

Petition President Obama, and your local politicians WORLDWIDE, to launch a full investigation into Scientology’s records, and have the IRS revoke their tax-exempt status, and demand back-taxes for all years missed.

This simple act, is literally, the LEAST you can do, and will send a message, that Anonymous will go to the highest corridors of power to complete its mission.

Go to change.gov/page/s/yourstory and send a message to President Obama. Tell him your concerns. Tell him to visit WhyWeProtest.net, WhyAreTheyDead.com, ExScientologyKids.com, Exscn.net, Xenu.Net, XenuTV.com, and many others, and end this long nightmare known as Scientology.

The following videos summarize how you can do you part and speak out to the powers-that-be to enlist their help in stoping the many crimes abuses the cult of scientology has gotten away with for decades.

Knowledge is free and knowledge is power.
We are Anonymous.
We are Legion.
We do not forgive.
We do not forget.
Expect us.

Scientology Desperately Seeks to Suppress the Truth... AGAIN!!

The world's most successful scam religion is attempting - yet again - to suppress the truth about their many human rights abuses.

On Oct. 31, Irish publisher Merlin released “The Complex,” in which John Duignan, identified as “a former high-ranking member” of the church in Britain, describes his “dramatic escape” from its “elite para-military group,” the Sea Organization. Five days later, Cruise dropped by Amazon’s Seattle headquarters to glad-hand staffers and host a sneak peek at his new movie, “Valkyrie.” -- NY Daily News

A book critical of the so-called "most ethical group on the planet" has been released you say? Heh... here we go again this anon and many others say.

The usual rounds of vindictive attacks and revenge litigation has already begun. Such is the norm for the scilons when their crimes come to light. Now that the media has begun paying attention to this story, it's a certainty that the next step on behalf of the crime syndicate will be unleashing the typical mountains of false accusations as per other sacred doctrine of a group who belligerently calls themselves a 'church'.

If the nasty culties stay true to form, as prescribed in the boatload of arcane policy letters that is likewise sacred if it was written by LRH... This phase will be closely followed up with outright threats leveraged against an outspoken victim by exploiting whatever pyscho-babble dirt they can scrape from the poor man's dianetics counseling files. And they call us anons trolls?? Hmmmm.

Sadly enough, this despicable behavior is all too familiar: The Scandal of Scientology by Paulette Cooper, A Piece of Blue Sky by Jon Atack, Messiah or Madman by Brent Corydon, and many more. Been there, done that... and in the end the cult still FAILED to suppress the truth.

Anybody who speaks out against the scientology organization is automatically an enemy is another one of their basic principles of faith that dictates that they must stop at nothing to destroy all perceived enemies through whatever delusional means they deem necessary. Funny how they never bother to defend their positions or views when this happens; despite their so-called expertise in Communication courses.

However, unlike the many persecuted authors and ex-scientologists of the past who revealed the atrocities they encountered while being a member of Scientology - this time is different. This time, John has a legion behind him and an ever-growing number of similarly abused former members speaking out as well.

It has been over a month now since John Duignan's book was first released. So let there be no doubt, despite John's tenacity to wisely keep his cards close to the chest, Fair Game 101 has definitely commenced by now. The cult's goon squad should be fully lubed and loaded for dirty lawfare tricks and targeted harrassment. Everybody stand back while the dementia brigades from the Office of Special Affairs (aka "OSA") storm onto the scene and make their usual attempts to "handle the flap".

The following vid expresses how Anonymous feels about the whole situation.

In this particular case, the flap at hand for the scientology cult is that John's book exposes the horrors he experienced first hand as a high-level scientologist. This non-fictional account details how badly John suffered (on many different levels) from the cult's inhuman policies and never-ending human rights abuses.

The release of this damning expose means the inevitable smear campaign full of false accusations will surely be launched towards John in the imminent future. I recommend all lurkers & sympathizers of the anti-scientology movement keep lots of popcorn handy because this time around should be quite entertaining to watch considering that the world-at-large no longer sees Scientology in the same light it used too. Thus, the brave publishers continue to defy Scientology’s attempts to bully them.

The following letter is from John to Anonymous, expressing his thanks for the fervent current of electrified activism that is speaking out against this evil organization from all corners, and helping him to do his part to fight back against these abuses.

To you Anonymous

Thank you to the individuals and the collective that created the newest video on the banning of my book.

I consider myself part of your movement and I care deeply about your commitment to achieving the end of that cult.

'The Complex' is my testimony, it says what it says and of course it could have been said better, but it is out there and it is creating a stir.

Let me be quite clear, it would not have happened without Anonymous being there and it would not have gotten the attention it is receiving without your efforts and backing.

Let me restate a fundamental point:

Scientology is engaged in the daily violation of fundamental human rights.

It is a parasite living off of our free democratic and open society, its sole intention is to suck as much finance and power as it can from these societies before subverting them to its own totalitarian regime.

Scientology perverts human rights, you may have heard of YHRI the Youth For Human Rights front group? It gets regular hearings from the UN, it promotes the human rights activist, L. Ron Hubbard.

Free democracies such as England, Australia, Denmark and the US host Sea Org bases, where the cult operates illegal prison camps.

I witnessed the incarceration and subsequent attempted suicide of Alice. This lovely 19 year found that she could not escape the RPF, at least her body couldn't, but she figured that her spirit could. She swallowed a bottle of paint thinner and jumped off a roof.

The Scientology PR office successfully covered up the event.

Stacy Moxon was 19 when she died on the Sea Organisation base in California.

There has been no investigation into the deaths, no cult officers have been prosecuted for failure in matters of duty of care.

The cult carries on.

I love my new found freedom, I love learning and growing, but each day I remain acutely aware of the manipulative hold the cult maintains on its members and its ongoing and incessant attempts to gain political and legislative power through the corruption of MPs, Senators and police.

We can't fight that, but we can make known what we know, we can shine light on the cult and one day great justice will be done.

Don't give up, your kids will thank you.

Let us not ever be silenced.

John Duignan,
Author of 'The Complex'
"They stole my freedom, now I am stealing it back"

Thanks Anonymous.

While sale of “The Complex” has been blocked in the UK, it is locally available in Ireland and can be ordered online via Easons.ie Books for international delivery. Amazon.com US currently has an un-stocked listing that will supposedly be available at some point in the near future, despite the listing being temporarily removed prior to the press widely reporting the suspicious timing of a Tom Cruise visit to Amazon headquarters.

If you wish to help make sure Amazon realizes the significant demand for this publication, make sure you add the unavailable book to your shopping cart to help secure enough pre-orders to guarantee future availability. Another extremely helpful action to take a stand against the suppression of truth is to go to your local franchise bookstores with the author's name, title, and ISBN 1903582849 and inquire if they can order it for you in the hopes of getting additional stock on the shelves.

If all of the above tactics fail or you lack the patience to wait for a backorder, the book can be ordered directly from its publisher Merlin Publishing. Merlin Publishing can be contacted by phone (+35 314 535866) or through their website: http://www.merlinwolfhound.com.

Pay Attention Amazon.com Customers. The Cult of Greed has a pervasive nature when it comes to leveraging the interests of their commercial enterprise to be aligned with the interests of other commercial enterprises. Don't let their fake Hollywood image fool you, pay attention to where you buy your reading material and judge for yourself whether your bookseller cares about their customers interests or do they bend over for an oppressive cult just to protect their profits?

Behold the Victims of Scientology Beliefs

Scientologists desperately try to claim the internet protesters speaking out against their corrupt practices and manipulative schemes are religious bigots and make false accusations that we terrorize them as well as other religions. As with most of their claims of any significance, this is a BOLD FACED LIE TWICE OVER.

The first half of the lie is that we are not bigots. The Anonymous activists are merely unconventional devotees of truth and justice, who care deeply about basic human rights while refusing to tolerate a commercial enterprise selling a twisted charade that ultimately hurts people in more ways than one.

The second half of the lie is that we actually protest NO religions whatsoever because once you strip away all the lies and false promises that the Church of Scientology hides behind, the only thing left is few simple self-improvement techniques that are used as weapons of mass manipulation instead of being applied as mechanisms of self-help.

A religion is defined as "a set of beliefs concerning the cause, nature, and purpose of the universe, usually involving devotional and ritual observances." Scientology was originally marketed as "the study of advanced dianetics: the science of mental health" albeit that didn't fly very well in the public eye since they purposely avoid scientific techniques, established clinical standards, and open forms academic study. Nowadays, the meaning of the word "scientology" is defined as meaning "the science of knowing how to know" which implies a methodology of learning how to think rather than a system of beliefs based on principles of faith.

"Scientology has opened the gates to a better World. It is not a psycho-therapy nor a religion. It is a body of knowledge which, when properly used, gives freedom and truth to the individual."
- L. Ron Hubbard, Original 1953 publication of "THE CREATION of HUMAN ABILITY", before it was edited out in the 1971 edition.

A real religion does not discriminate against non-believers or lesser abled people, nor manipulate support with a overly zealous commercial enterprise that employs dubious tactics. However, organized scientology promotes itself as "Making the Able More Able" and structures its entire organization into massive profit centers that hide behind an litigious corporation that has mastered the art of religious cloaking.

A truly humanitarian cause does not ignore the sentiments of charity and humility as a normal human emotion. Similarly, an honorable church does not rank the state of having no sympathy as one that carries a higher emotional value than truly heartfelt states of having pity for those less fortunate. A respectable system of beliefs does not belittle grief and fatal illness, nor discourage wanting to make amends for your past wrongs. Yet one of the core beliefs of scientology is the Tone Scale, which ranks ALL of these normal human emotions as less than desirable rather than as hallmarks of decency and goodness.

"There are only two answers for the handling of people from 2.0 down on the Tone Scale, neither one of which has anything to do with reasoning with them or listening to their justification of their acts. The first is to raise them on the Tone Scale by un-enturbulating some of their theta by any one of the three valid processes. The other is to dispose of them quietly and without sorrow."
- L. Ron Hubbard, SCIENCE OF SURVIVAL, p. 170

An honest path to spiritual enlightenment does not include reprogramming the language you use, or using meditation to the point of sensory deprivation. Positive self improvement is not fostered by performing repetitive exercises that replace normal human reaction with confrontational behaviors. Yet the cult of scientology replaces the acts of prayer and reflection that are held sacred by god-fearing religions, with acts of mind numbing Training Routines that drill all of these negative impacts into their members psyche while fracturing their conscience mind in order to suppress basic human emotions. How can one be enlightened while being conditioned into a mindset that is unfeeling and unresponsive?

"There is no more ethical group on this planet than ourselves."
- L. Ron Hubbard, KEEPING SCIENTOLOGY WORKING ("KSW"), February 1965, reissued August 1980

A ministry that caters to a message of personal salvation is typically built on a foundation of charity, compassion, and forgiveness. Scientology sells salvation for a fee, deems the less fortunate as unworthy, plus retaliates against all dissent with vengeful accusations and total severance. Religion should be a vessel for greater understanding and acceptance, and not used as an amphitheater for fostering conspiracy theories nor used as a tool for parishioner manipulation.

With this many contradictions, delusions, and coercive tactics built into the infrastructure of the organization's practices, the end result is that the cult's system of beliefs is nothing but a conduit for mass corruption. This corruption has reigned unchecked for too many years. This corruption has festered and rotted while destroying the lives of too many former members and ex-scientologists for far too long. The rapidly growing list of victim testimonials can not be ignored; the suffering and loss can no longer be hidden.

"Therefore we really do have the remedy before the assault weapon is produced. Did you ever read poor old George Orwell's uh.. 1984? Yes, yes, that's wonderful. That would be, could be, the palest imagined shadow of what a world would be like under the rule of the secret use of Scientology with no remedy in existence."
- L. Ron Hubbard, Philadelphia Doctorate Course Tape 20 (Course Transcript)

The ongoing Chanology Protests has built a platform for the victims' voices to be heard and the stories of real life horrifying experiences is being told. The time has come to vindicate the victimized and acknowledge the evil empire lurking in our midst. The voices of the ex-scientologists say it all, and the many victims like those featured in the following YouTube Playlist is ultimately why many Anonymous Protestfags say "We Do Not Forgive. We Do Not Forget."

Never Forget The Victims of Scientology

An ethical practice of religious beliefs should aim for the betterment of the basic human condition for all people; be it in this lifetime, the afterlife, or a person's next lifetime. Whereas the practices of organized scientology vehemently aims to victimize their members for the sole betterment of the organization with complete disregard for the moral standards of decency for humanity as a whole.

A sincere religion offers charitable acts of compassion and aid for victims of circumstances beyond one's control. Scientology only offers a path of deceptive practices that leads to a bridge of falsehood with the ultimate goal of making its victims sacrifice their livelihoods and sanity for the sake of protecting the greater evil of the organization's true nature.

Religious doctrines that are worthy of making self sacrifes for should generate hope and caring amongst believers, and not leave a wide trail of victims in it's wake like scientology does with their practices of immoral manipulation and depraved indifference to the basic human condition that mankind is not meant to be a perfect being.

Therefore, the victims of scientology prove beyond a doubt that the only bigotry the Anonymous protesters are guilty of is that of loathing the practices of an EVIL CULT that advocates an inhuman means to an end by using well honed dark arts of deception and coercion.

These dark arts are the secret uses of scientology LRH bragged about, and are not in anyway shape or form the "ethical system of beliefs" this controversial church claims them to be.

The truth of the matter is that the cult's systematic indoctrination processes represent the corrupt practices of a ruthless crime syndicate. It is not our cross to bear if the virtual lobotomy of their reactive minds renders them emotionally incapable of sorting out the difference between tenets of religious belief and a insidious interpretation of totalitarian principles.

Alas mateys, the time is a tad bit overdue for the next installment of the Cult Watch Mini Raid Series on this here blog. I try to do these once a month but I'm pushing two months this time. Things are spontaneously combusting on so many fronts this past month it's getting harder to keep up.

However, this next segment of flash raid WINS are so deliciously rich surely they were fated to be savored abit in order to take their proper place amongst the marcabian assault tracklist of legendary landmarks in the ongoing crusade of Anonymous vs. organized scientology.

Cult Watch - Flash Raids Are Such Fun! (Chapter 2)

The YouTube Playlist featured above showcases what is dam well likely to be some of the greatest flash raids & cult watch moments of the campaign to end the cult so far! We pick up where I left off at the end of May on the last episode, and cover the following sampling of memorable occaisions after opening with an introspective look at how things are going in the bigger picture from the Toronto Citadel.

• On of the PlymouthScientology Cult Watch raids before Stu Wyatt was unjustly persecuted by local police under the influence of scientology dead agenting practices. Fortunately though, the latest news on Stu is that his actions to press criminal charges have commenced to proceed in what looks to be a positive direction despite the oddity of his damage footage of scilon tactics being mysteriously yanked from youtube the day before he meant with the local authorities.
  
  
• Jason Beghe joins NYC anons to personally call out Carmichael's now infamous "I Smell Puthy" fail remark.
  
  
• Epic East Grinstead Raid with spontaneous lulz & infinite WIN compliments of OG who inpired a grand walk around the war memorial and on to Saint Hill.
  
  
• At look at one of the many ThetanAss legendary nights on the town with socal crew, a compratriot who has gracefully bowed out of the fight in recent days due to unfortunate drama and other things and remembered here with full marcabian honors.
  
  
• DC Anons encounter a "clear" on the street and get the poor misguided soul to admit she's not so clear after all.
  
  
• Paying a visit to Stress Test Tent in DC the day after the 9000 Man March national event.

There is just so many special downstat moments constantly happening in major cities around the world that include the momental occaisons above as well asschalk-tastic adventures, closing down events, heckling the stress testers, bullbaiting OSA, and dancing in the steets.

Let there be no doubt that despite a few minor bumps in the road Anonymous is working hard these days! We're starving the bases from outside on the street by circumventing their daily commercial enterprise profits, as well as paving the way for unhappy members to realize freedom can be had on the outside such that the outflux of ex-members continually grows everyday.

Scientology's Library Donation Service… Scam or Fundraiser?

If you have ever heard the saying “it is better to give than to receive” you may also know that receiving is not always what it is cracked up to be. People with a gentler nature will often worry about saying that a gift is the wrong size, or even hide the fact they already have the same item that was given. When most people give to a worthy humanitarian charity, it makes them feel good. However, if money is unknowingly given to expert pan-handler, who may or may not be using the gift in the same spirit it was given, the initial act of generosity becomes a form of victimization rather than instance of charity.

This type of human behavior that is behind deceptive donation ploys is commonly referred to as "boiler room scams”. These con artist schemes are named after the conditions of the office that are typical to back-room or ‘under wraps’ type of questionable business falsely claiming to be a charity. A boiler room of a building (or the lowest rent office available), would often be used to house a number of shady telemarketers or sales staff. This task force will sit at their desk all day long working a canned sales pitch non-stop for what is seemingly a “good cause” and “tax deductible” while offering the extra benefit of “free gifts” or other perks when purchased in bulk quantities so how can you lose right?

Wrong. These shifty outfits are entirely sales-based and use a gigantic mailing list to sell product or service that is never quite what it seems. They solicit unsuspecting patrons to request a donation for such modern-day things as advertising to benefit the fire department retirees, or selling tickets for underprivileged children to go on a nice outing, or aiding handicapped workers to earn a desperately needed commission.

Organized scientology has been using a very similar model to con their parishioners into buying multiple sets of books for quite some time. A currently ongoing example of a global Co$ boiler room book scam that is becoming notorious on the internet is ‘Scientology’s Great Library Dumping Scandal ’.

In this fine exhibition of deceptive salesmanship at an all-time sneaky high, staff members from the cult send out fliers and leaflets galore as apart of their daily mass spam abuse to all of their members, former members, friends, enemies, and anyone whoever took a stress test in past 10 years and made the mistake of giving an address they still live at. The propaganda being distributed in this manner and throughout the local orgs or special events is a steady stream of aggressive donation campaigns for distributing a significant portion of their new 2007 releases of the organization’s Basics Set of Books & DVDs.

This fund raising effort falls under the wing of one of the many scientology front groups known as the "Library Donation Service". This savvy sales division of the crime syndicate has the ambitious goal of getting the non-staff members & wealthy supporters to sponsor the publishing costs and shipping expense of placing an entire set of the 18 Basic Books (along with at least one or more DVD’s) on the shelf of ALL public and private libraries around the world.

For a donation of a few thousand dollars, donors are encouraged to sponsor the sending of multiple sets of the Scientology beginner books to a varying range of library facilities. As the campaigns progressed throughout the past year or so, great stats of success and accomplishments were bragged about incessantly (as shown later), all the while encouraging more and more donations that have obviously been pouring in based on Anonymous’ research that is summarized below.

One example of these campaigns is included in the initial video clip below where a radio show disc jockey reads from the Library Donation Service brochure while USA distribution was still being sold hot & heavy. The high-end contribution was 15 sets of books for $6,000 (or $400 per set). Additional email-based marketing reported on Clambake Forums indicates the going rate in 2008 drives is $450, as with a specific campaign for tropical distribution that was reported on the Ex-Scientologist Message Board under the topic The Cuba connection as follows:

A friend of mine forwarded this comment from an email they recently received.

"AOLA is getting one set of LRH's Basic Books into every library in Cuba this week. We have the opportunity now that Castro has stepped down, and need to get Source on the shelves before the psychs move in. We are more than halfway there already. Your donation could complete it! It's $450 per library. ANY amount is accepted. It's tax deductable, and you will be commended in writing. Call me at the above number to do this."

Killing Trees… For The Sake of Fraud or Salvation?

What was truly being done with the massive book dumps being shipped out in geographical waves? Is the cult actually spreading the preliminary introduction to their entry-level doctrines in large scale unchecked? Entire shelves of scamatology books IN MY LIBRARY? WTF?!?!?!!

Anons of course wanted to know these answers and moar. So many info seekers around the world commenced to investigate if the books were truly making their way onto library shelves for mass consumption. As to be expected, we found that the books where indeed being SHIPPED out to the libraries, and often the same sets of books where being sent to the same USA libraries multiple times. But what happens to those books after they ARRIVE is an entirely different story as you shall see.

The following YouTube Playlist tells the tale of this fraudulent fiasco from there. This series features a library unpacking their 9th set of books and other related goodies. Also included with these vids is a brief glimpse back at a few other past & present scientology scam tactics, which reaped similarly unsavory results on a large scale but only scratches a tiny dent in the cult’s long history of unethical schemes that exploit their member’s ‘donations’ by any means possible.

Scientology's Great Library Book Dumping Scam

What do the librarians say about these book donation campaigns? If you pay attention to the beginning of the unpacking clip in the above series of videos, you hear them mention they have received NINE boxes and comment (with much lulz) on the fine quality of the box! Also seen in the vids above, the ever diligent Professor at a university buys a whole stack from the campus library to prevent anyone else from getting a hold of literature from a destructive cult. The hip Prof paid $16 for his stack of 16 unwanted books. This is the same material that the public scientologist being debated by Anon on the street in a subsequent clip states he donated $2000 Canadian dollars (approx. $1,984 USD) for an unknown number of sets (most likely 5 if he purchased them at the usual rate). Little does he know the sets of books he was conned into buying were rudely sent to a library that never asked for them in the first place… yet gets stuck with either getting rid of the books, or getting hassled and harassed by the obnoxious sales agents of Bridge Publications when they try to politely return them.

These same "Basics Set" hardcover books carry an average list price of $33.00 per book. Add to that a generous estimate of roughly $2 per book for shipping and handling in the bulk packaging shown in the videos above, and a full set of 18 books and 1 video is worth approximately $650 total street value in US currency.

Based on the examples of their advanced in-house “Print On Demand” (POD) publishing system shown in the promotional vid also included in the playlist above; books that list for $35-40 dollars typically cost approximately $10 to produce in this manner at standard labor rates. That would make for manufacturing costs on an entire 18 book set roughly under $200. Yet donors being suckered into the Library donation scam fork over $400-450 in US currency for the typical box of unwanted crap being dumped on unsuspecting libraries who the cult expects to place them on the shelves with no questions asked.

Waste Not, Want Not…. or maybe NOT!!

For those who have great faith in the Scientology techniques saving the world, a 225% markup over cost might be a justifiable donation they can be proud of, assuming the books are put to good use and reach a wider audience. However, we found that is not the case as told over on the "@theLibrary" blog who first referred to it as the Scientology Dump and kicked off the initial internet stir regarding this ubiquitous scam back in March of 2008:

Original Post: The Library keeps getting unsolicited texts and DVDs from the Church of Scientology. I can only imagine that this is the Church’s public relations response to Anonymous declaring war on them a couple of months ago. Have any other libraries out there received at least two large boxes packed with the “basic” works of Scientology? Who knew that there are at least 18 books and 3000 lectures that comprise their canon?

... Our Assistant Director called them up because we don’t have the room to shelve the 40 or so books and DVDs that we were given. I think we shipped most of them back and kept only a few titles like The Scientology Handbook, and The Fundamentals of Thought, and a couple of others including a DVD with a picture of L. Ron Hubbard on the cover.

Follow up Comment by the author on March 25, 2008 at 5:27 am: ...I have a feeling that the Friends of the Library ended up selling them for .50/ea. or something like that. As an aside other librarians are telling me that their libraries received these as well… All kinds of libraries, even the technical library at Three Mile Island has apparently received these sets.

Comment by herself on March 25, 2008 at 4:18 am: *lol* I worked for a public library once which experienced the same inundation. I sent back the “response card” (which only gave me the choice of requesting more books, or requesting more books) with a note saying, “Please do not send any more books.” I actually got a call from the Scientology publisher people asking (incredulously) why I wouldn’t want their books for my library. I decided to leave content out of the discussion and told them that every one of our 26 branches got 2 copies of every book they sent out, and that few of our little branches had room or demand for them. She said, “What happens to the books?” and I told her they end up in the book sale marked $1 each (and that’s on the high side). She was appalled. “That’s an expensive book!” My response: “Well, then quit sending so many.” I gave her the number for our countywide collection development head, then hung up and called the head to warn her. *eye roll*

Comment by Heidi on March 25, 2008 at 6:14 am: I work in a hospital library and received a box of Scientology books in December. Made my head hurt trying to figure out why they’d be sent there.

Response by the author on March 25, 2008 at 6:49 am: Hiya Heidi! It does provoke quite a bit of confusion doesn’t it? Did you order these? WHO ordered these things? Where is the PO? What the hell is happening here?

Comment by AmyH said this on March 25, 2008 at 9:19 am: ...Yes! My library got that dump, too! The Acquisitions Librarian put the materials into our school’s Book Sale which helps to fund scholarships. We already have “Dianetics” in our collection and that’s enough.

So it seems the libraries DO NOT WANT these texts, which typically cost public scientologists thousands of dollars in donations because their strongly encouraged to sponsor multiple sets of books with a single generous donation. We were unable to get our hands on a visual image of the actual donation propaganda drumming up this support at this time, but hope to include it as documentation in a follow up article in the coming months.

Let the Truth Be Told… on the Stacks!!!

As we began to look at this closer, Anonymous members on the WhyWeProtest.net reported the following findings from doing some local legwork sleuthing earlier this year:

"I talked to my friend’s mom who works at a library in town, and they got three boxes. They put all of them in the basement nickel book sale, and when none sold for a month, gave them out for free to anyone who wanted them. They only managed to give away two."

"In my local library they are still behind the counter wrapped as they came, no plans for placing them on the shelf"

"I picked up my basics package from my librarian friend today! 9 books, all hard-bound, I'm in heaven...Apparently I asked at just the right time; they were in a cardboard box with the word 'Trash' scrawled on the side."

"They're claiming the US is 100% done, yes. And there are *three* libraries I've checked local to Clearwater that don't have all of them."

"My friend works at a library. She said they received a box of scientology books.... they promptly threw them away. Ha!"

"I work at a library, and recently we and our branch library each received two sets of boxes of Scientology books from the Scientology publisher. Our director did not put them into our library like they wanted us to do. The books were tossed."

Thus, initial anon findings jive with comments on the @theLibrary blog and indicate further proof that the vast majority of the donated books are "gotten rid of" in one of four ways. The libraries either sell them off for fund raising along with the old and out dated books for a dollar or two a piece, the entire set is given away for free, or thrown out with the trash. Otherwise, the libraries attempt to ship them back to where they came from and deal with the duress of being hassled over not placing them on the shelves by the disgruntled donation service sales force.

Dirty Deeds Redone Dirt Cheap… An Online Bookseller Free-for-All!

Meanwhile, elsewhere on the internet another recent example of this book dumping fiasco of FAIL can be found on the “Jasmine’s Blog” site, posted on June 4, 2008 under the entry Can I interest anyone one in Scientology books?

They’re brand new, still wrapped, unread. I had come across a box labeled “Free Books” at the public health library. Usually it’s filled with books that look gross- that if you’d place them under a black light, they’d glow from fecal, blood, etc. stains – like hotel comforters.

But this time, the books looked clean. While I have zero interest in reading about Scientology/Dianetics, I had a vague idea that I would use them as emergency firewood or to level an uneven table. So I grabbed like 6 or 7.

Unfortunately, it seems this discovery is nothing new. Ebay.com has become saturated with dozens of brand new books still in the wrapper offered for a fraction of the cost and often posted in bulk quantities. Google checkout currently features 5 pages of new editions for $1 or less. Meanwhile, over on Amazon.com there is more than a dozen online book sellers who are selling the brand new hardcover editions for under a dollar and sometimes as low as a penny a piece!

So it’s readily apparent that organized scientology’s great book dumping donation scam has been going strong for well over a year. This is proven by “The Invisible Library” blog entry from January 2007 under The World of the Day Before Yesterday– Now With Fedoras:

At the library yesterday we received a donation of DVDs from Bridge Publications Inc. the publishing arm of the Church of Scientology. We regularly receive unsolicited donations from publishers but as these DVDs were lectures by L. Ron Hubbard on Scientology, I was intrigued. [Ha! Intrigued enough the author continues on as very knowledgeable critic of the subject matter after reviewing the extended DVD lecture set.]

Now with all this massive output and distribution of their public doctrines to so many libraries, one would think that public access to scientology books would by now be readily available in vast quantities. Anonymous thinks NOT.

The Real Deal Exposed… Factual Library Catalog Statistics are just a mouse-click away!!

Using informative online library index sites such as WorldCat.org Search to drill down into other online catalogs such as the Los Angeles Public Library, and the NYC Public Library systems; the actual on-the-shelf statistics were easily gathered for tabulating a rough estimate on the number of the new editions made available to the public in various venues compliments of the cult’s Library Donation Service.

Scientology’s claims of completion status for these library dumping campaigns as of May 2008 that are used for comparison on each region below were taken from My Scientology Blog: Scientology in Libraries and shown in the image below. An additional email-based report on oversees distribution to various islands was leaked on the Clambake Forums in May 2008.

Using a WordCat.org Library Catalog List for the full set 2007 Basics books and introductory video, a detailed search was made for a variety of interconnected online library catalogs and systems. Specific stats were gathered for the quantity of scientology materials actually found on the stacks around the world. From this information, we compiled findings that indicate a small trickle of new editions have been recently made freely available in the United States, but nowhere near a “100%” success rate can legitimately be claimed.

The following link outlines these findings in detail for four major corners of the world with summary highlights from each region as of July 2008 noted below.

Anonymous Presents: Scientology 2007-08 Library Dump Actual On-the-shelf Library Book Stats

We aim to revisit these stats and provide another update for a time range comparison in 3-6 months or when the scilons publish another round of updated completion stats that are ripe for the dis-proving!

USA Trends found as of July 2008: 57 independent libraries or regional library systems checked for recent editions of scientology basics in 35 major US cities. This region of the world was reported as 100% complete as of May 09, 2008.

Major Universities have little-to-none new editions w/ a few exceptions. They also typically have a small number of copies of a few older editions ranging from 1986-92 already on the shelf in all but Los Angeles & Clearwater where the past versions are typically 1998-99.

City/County Public libraries mostly have a limited number of copies of the new edition books along with a few DVD’s. Small number of extreme scilon infiltration exceptions found with > 1/3 of the set of books.

With the exception of Southern & Central areas of Florida near the scilon mecca, the other southern states & midwest regions of the US have more occurrences of "none" than elsewhere.

The obvious conclusion to be made from these easily-verified findings is pretty clear. From well over 1,000 total facilities tabulated in our stats, 205 have NO RECENT EDITIONS or DVD's!!!

So an educated guestimate can be made that at least 20% of 123,000+ libraries in the United States DO NOT have the most recent editions of the Scientology Basics Books in the stacks. Therefore, if the US is 100% complete, that’s a helluva lot of books thrown out, given away, or sold for $1 or less. Never fear though, anon is near… many a studious protester has been sure to scoop up their own full set of new editions For FREE! These of course are being quoted profusely and exploited often in the ongoing crusade to rape the destructive cult with their very own “truths” that testify to unlimited bounds of snake oil quackery.

In additional to the USA on the shelf stats, we also gathered a sampling for the following regions that were only reported as being partially complete as of this round of data collection.

Canada Trends as of July 2008: 26 independent libraries or regional library systems in Canada checked for recent editions of scientology basics. This region of the world was reported as 55% complete as of May 09, 2008.

UK Trends as of July 2008: 27 independent libraries or regional library systems in England & Ireland checked for recent editions of scientology basics. This region of the world was reported as 22% complete as of May 09, 2008.

Australia Trends as of July 2008: This region of the world was reported as 18% complete as of May 09, 2008.

All things considered, it becomes quit clear when combining the input from all these different sources along with the online library catalog statistics used to produce the regional findings shown above; the libraries have definitely been throwing books away or contacting the Church of Scientology asking them NOT to send more boxes of books. Sometimes the books are shipped back to C.o.S. and other times they are sold off for pennies on the dollar of their retail price. Yet they tout this outcome of such a huge amount of donations, as such great success of their Keep Scientology Working program. Large sums of monies not being spent on humanitarian efforts like normal "churches", but pissed away on distributing unwanted materials where very little if any is making it onto the actual library shelf. Where's the success in that? Oh that's right, at 225% markup over cost, the success is in putting more profit into the crime syndicate's pocket.

Global Boiler Room Scam… Not Your Average-sized “Basement” Operation.

The official scientology front group responsible for this fine effort is known as the Library Donation Service and is set up as part of the larger International Library Campaign in order to place scientology books and materials into the public libraries around the world. Their actions are explained on an official Co$ FAQ as follows:

The Church encourages the widest possible dissemination of Scientology publications containing all the Scientology scriptures other than its confidential, unpublished materials, which comprise a small fraction of the scriptures of the religion. In addition to the many public information actions described later, we have donated thousands of copies of Scientology books and materials to public libraries. This has been done to make it possible for individuals with limited financial means to learn and apply Scientology principles to their lives without having to pay anything. Our library donation program has proved extremely successful. In fact, it has been calculated that every 29.5 seconds, somewhere in the world, a person checks out a Scientology book from a library.

With all the many lies, exaggerations, and hyped up sales propaganda within the convoluted hierarchy of the crime syndicate of organized scientology... who would of thought there would still be enough room leftover for such a broad boiler room scam to run unchecked for well over a year. But never fear - Anon have been here and collected many a free or cheaply gotten new edition to educate ourselves for the ongoing battle because knowledge is power afterall. Nonetheless, here's hoping the cult soon finds a new secondary book-selling pitch to compliment their annual book-a-thon drives since it seems pretty clear to us this one has done more than enough wasteful damage to their donors wallets.

Now considering how totally downstat their book-a-thon was this year, combined with huge amounts of books wasted by the donation service campaigns, I'd suspect next year's new scheme to sell excess books by the quantity will involve some freshly crafted tactic that doesn't give them away for free and ripe for the trashing or reselling.

GTFO of My Library... What Can Been Done?

Lookup the main WorldCat Entry for the Dianetics Book, then under the "Libraries" tab use the "Enter Location Information" box to find the libraries nearest you. Follow the links to the libraries in your area that you easily recognize, and search for books by L. Ron Hubbard published in 2007.

In you find any public libraries infiltrated with the new editions of Scientology books, stop by and confirm they are indeed on the shelf. Ask the librarian who the proper channel is to complain to if you have concerns about the recruiting tools of a destructive cult being distributed for public access, outside of a higher education environment, with disregard to the serious harm that has been well documented by former members in regard to what happens to the unknowing bystanders that get sucked in as the next victims. If given the opportunity, provide fliers and other material stating the facts regarding the crimes committed by organized scientology. If this gets you nowhere, consider inserting flyers or cards into the books on the shelf as explained in the related "Operation" and "Project Andromeda" links listed in the references below.

Special Thanks for this article goes to YouTuber MrFyde who helped coauthor certain sections and analyze the collected stats, as well as all the anon who personally checked their local libraries!!
