| This raid was a total blast, one of the best I've been to so far. Seven was once again able to make himself unknown to me, kyubikirby looked damned executive in his suit, and Nagi made a teary-eyed reading from an ex-scilon.
The ride up to Horton was calm, no old people begging for my seat. When I arrived, I had no idea I was early, and went into Sam Goody to watch blu-ray ads, a while later I met up with some anons, and the raid was near.
The raid itself was the best the best the best the best the best the best, we handed flyers out, and candy at night, but I wasn't around then. We had a lot of people assuming racism, what with Seven's sheet, and plain dumb asses.
I was overall satisfied with the turnouut, and how positive many people reacted this time around, the way home was as usual, I think I had a spy, so I chugged a shitload of soda and burped in his direction, lost that asshole...
We need to bring caek to more raids, brownies just wont cut it...
also cocks. | |

| Omg Seven... Mistaken for the KKK I take it...
Sounds like everyone had a fun time. Briefly phoned Seven, heard several anon laughing and handing out candy in the background.
Hopefully I'll be able to make it to two protests come this mid-Nov. They sound like a lot of fun and interesting way to inform the public of sciencetology. | |

That raid was fantastic. I'm gonna sum up my view on it...because I can.
Got there at 1130, just in time throw on the Thetan costume and catch the last half of Nagi's speech. Though I only hear a part of it, it still hit me hard about just why we're doing this, and why the cult of scientology needs to be brought to an end. I think it really set the mood for everyone. -And to the author of the letter, I just want you to know how much of an impact your letter, and other letters like it that anonymous has recieved from ex members, has had on our movement. The fact alone that you were able to get out, and even manage to begin putting your life back together is exactly the kind of thing we hope to accomplish. Your stories give us hope, and reason to continue. If we were not seeing such results, I think a lot of anons would have left.- After that, we set out to the org, where there was dancing and a good amount of scilon activity. Their parking structure seemed to be a popular hangout, and despite our best efforts, they refused to acknowledge us. After a while, David came out, and was prowling around behind the signs. He put on his best mean face when he finally worked up the courage to peek out and glare at us. Then he did a nervous stroll down to the back of the building and came back.
Note to David: It's hard to look like you're unafraid when you're trembling as you walk./Note.
After that, Ben came out with his camera. I don't want to get him in trouble, so I'll just say that he did something that struck me as odd as he began filming. He made sure to get our shoes, and once again refused to say anything. Everyone was dancing, and I managed to get a film of him filming us.
Note to Ben: Get out man, with the exception of that dead look in your eyes, you seem like you are capable of a lot of good. I know the cult has probably stolen a lot of your life and wellbeing away, but it's never to late to leave, never to late to regain the things you've lost./Note
After he went back inside, we discovered that we were being filmed from the roof. David was doing his best to be sneaky. So, as the other anons danced and waved, I went across the street and grabbed a few photos. He tired the same thing about 15 minutes later, from the opposite side of the building.
Shortly after, we left to go back to Horton. We spent a little over an hour handing out cards and candy to passersby, and I think we really reached out to a lot of people. A family from Germany told us about how scientolgy is under investigation back home, and another man told me about hos he lived near the org and how he was thankful for our efforts, and in agreement due to his own mental health issues. It was pretty moving to hear another account of how the cult has effected someone who's not even directly involved with us or them. Then there were the curious people who were wondering about my costume, and I explained to them about thetans, and about what we were doing, lots of support from a lot of different people. I even got my photo taken with a buncha asian chicks. This was win. It was around this time that FTP showed up, and we soon thereafter started to march.
Marching was fun, with many lulz, and one annoyance. Got a photo of Nagi outside the porn shop, and Anons on the other side of the street found bomberman. Then came the drunk chicks, who held up our march for upwards of 15 minutes as FTP tried to score. It wasn't so bad for me because about this time a man approached me and we had a discussion about scientology, and cults in general. He seemed to know his stuff, and I was really glad we had talked. Yet another personal encounter that moved me during the raid. As Nagi and FTP stayed behind, the rest of us marched back to the Horton, where we handed out some more cards and waited.
Once Nagi and FTP came back, we had our break, and all went to eat. All I will say on that matter is that I cherish home and family as a special treasure in bed.
After eating, we went to meet the 2nd shifters, and put together a massive three bags of candy cards. then we headed up to the org. Once again, it was pretty active, with people coming in and out of the garage the whole time. We even saw some kids, being pulled along by their mother. David or someone was once again hanging out behind the banners, and Nagi and I went around to the back to check it out.
We got a few shots of David from the back before they noticed us. At this same time, we were approached by a homeless guy, who Nagi was talking with and it was pretty awesome to listen. Nagi really knows what he's doing. A few minutes into the conversation, Liz and Ben came out to the back by us and started handing out a "news report" about that kid who DDOS'd scientology websites. It was hilarious, really. I don't know why I was focusing on Ben (Who was filming the incident) I should have grabbed a closeup of Liz. Again, I caught Ben acting a little off from his normal self, -and I reiterate that you really need to blow.- It was pretty funny to see the homeless crumple up their letters in front of the camera.
Nagi and I then went back around to the front to meet up with the other anons who also had had an encounter with Ben and Liz. Around this time, Nagi wanted to read his letter again, and openly invited the scilons to come out and listen. In response, they turned on their music to the point of nearly blasting out their speakers. We ended up reading the letter by the parking garage, with a scilon hiding behind the banners (Whoever you were, I hope you heard what was being said, and I hope it made an impact) After that, and we were all teared up again, I started not feeling very well, and stated my departure. A few of the other anons were also leaving at this point too, but I left first, literally trying to force myself not to projectile vomit. My head was killing me.
I made it to my car, and wound up throwing up on my way home, a little bit inside my car, before I swerved to the side of the road and made a mad dash for the grass. It was pretty epic, the force of my throwing up ruptured blood vessels in my nose, and until I realized this, I thought I was puking blood. Yeah. And that was my take on the global. | |

| Hell of a raid!
I ended up a few minutes late. I met with Xenubarb to pick up the bullhorn and YFTCs. I had met with Scarlet the week before to get the Anon flag from him. Barb's green bird bit me in the face. Oy.
We decided to do the raid in two shifts this month to take advantage of the festive Halloween spirit downtown this time. We planned on our forums to have the first raid last 5 hours, from 11 to 4, then the second raid last from 5 to whenever.
We start with about 15 anons including new faces. I give the safety speech, and I read aloud a message I had recieved from an ex-Scientologist a few weeks ago, after getting permission from her to share it. My voice cracked a few times while reading it, and it really set the tone for the day as to why we're doing what we're doing.
With that, we marched down to the Org. They already had their shields up. Harley, our normal OSA handler was nowhere to be found. Instead, David Meyers (president of our ORG) came outside to take pictures of us and quickly retreated.
Around this time, we had a new guy come out of our ORG to film us, or at least, new to me. Other anons identified him as Ben Ghoria, wife of Wendy Ghoria(both OT8, and Wendy tried to hand out a large stack of black PR flyers at Sea Arrrgh). Ben had a video camera, and started to film us, and me intently since I had my mask off while I was making a sign. I had already been outed, so I looked into his camera, smiled, and said "Just so you know, I've already been outed, and your attorneys sent a letter to my grandparents' house informing them that I was a terrorist. The letter was forwarded to the San Diego Police Department and the FBI, and an official complaint was made. Could you please pass that on so you don't feel like you're wasting your time by filming an outed Anon?"
Ben dissapeared, and then we heard some commotion. David was trying to film us from up on the roof on the north side of the building! Plenty of jeers followed, including my own "Look, he's going to do his impression of the market last week!" David dissapeared, then reappeared from the roof on the SOUTH side of the building. We all waved and laughed some more. What he was trying to get, I have no idea. "This is like a game of whack-a-mole, where is he going to pop up from next?"
We saw several children being led in and out of the org as well. The police drove by and waved at us - we didn't even stop. Either the cops aren't buying it when Scientology calls and are only doing drive bys now, or the Scientologists are learning what calling the cops every time a leaf blows past their banners is incredibly damaging to their reputation.
We marched back down to Horton for the main demonstration, and even though we had 15 anons, we still blanketed the two main intersections with music and information. Public support was the highest it's ever been that I've seen, and we were going through all our cards and flyers.
We sat down to put together candy packages - a YFTC rubber banded to a candy bar or a bag of MnM's - they worked perfectly and people loved them. I was called the invisible man many times by some of our wonderful addicted homeless population to much amusement. Also, when asked if we were going to rob a bank, we said we were, but they had gone under last week.
Rounding up everyone, we did the march before we took our break. FTP got distracted by two drunk chicks and tried to score, holding up the march. I went back to get him along with another Anon and we ended up meeting with the group again to break at 4 pm for some delicious dinner.
Food took longer than we thought, so I ran down to the meeting place to find four fresh Anons wondering where we were. I mentioned the legion was on the way, and we sat down to finish about 500 pieces of candy. Backup arrived, and we went back up to pay the org a visit. Harly was there this time! He started filming us through the banners while playing his godawful "Theta Theta, see ya later!" music.
The new guys hadn't read the letter, so I wanted to read it to them. Harley was sticking his camera out behind the banners, and I issued him a challenge:
If he wanted good footage and to get upstat, I would give it to him. If he came outside and recorded me reading the letter, I would do it with my mask off, and even give him my full name. He would have good footage he could use, and would be upstat for finding out the identity of one of the SPs.
What did he do? WALKED BACK INSIDE THE ORG.
So I start to read the letter, loudly enough to make them turn up their music even louder. We moved down and read it - and everyone got choked up again.
I was with 7 and after the letter we decided to fuck with Harley who had come out again, so we went around to the back of the org to film him hiding behind his banner. There were about a dozen homeless guys, half of which told us about how they were approached about working there. We spoke to them, when lo and behold, Ben came back out with another Scientologist woman I had never seen before with a stack of papers. I was curious as to this, and Ben filmed as the woman handed the papers to the homeless people. She gave myself and 7 copies of this too. It was the press release of the NJ kid that got arrested the day before for hacking Scientology's websites back in January of last year.
The homeless people said "We don't need this shit!" and crumpled it up in front of the camera. I bet Ben edits that part of the video out when they use it to make a new internal video about us, or this "documentary" as they put it. Other anons got the same thing, so it was obvious they were handing it out around the globe.
With that, a few of us that had been raiding for about 9 hours straight decided it was time to call it a night, and four brave anons stayed behind to march downtown and hand out the candy we had put together with YFTCs attatched. They apparently had some left over, so we'll use that and more with our Halloween raids coming up.
Fantastic raid over all, and one that went very, very smoothly. Can't wait for the next one! | |
