In light of recent events, I thought it might be appropriate to repost a couple of videos. These were originally posted on Marty Rathbun's blog in December 2012. They are pretty self-explanatory. The first two show one of the earlier iterations of "you are being watched 24/7" video surveillance the church set up on my house. I realized this was the case when I received an "anonymous" letter warning me not to talk to my neighbor -- which was a sort of "WTF?" moment where I asked myself "How does anyone know I spoke to my neighbor"? From there, it was not hard to figure out where the … [Read more...]

Scientology Media Footbullets On Rapid Fire
The below article was published by Radar Online this morning. It is of note because it is further evidence that scientology is demonstrating to the world that everything in the movie is true. Their hamfisted footbullets are not going unnoticed as they may have done in the past. But it is especially interesting because of the absolutely astonishing arrogance of the responses. Everything they do is further confirmation of their guilt. Who in their right mind, when confronted with an email threatening physical violence would not say "We condemn threats of violence and will assist the … [Read more...]
Warehouse 8 Hypefest
This not an exciting post like yesterday. And I dont have the time nor energy right now to do anything more. I caught a bug when in NY and have been in bed for 48 hours. Hope to be done with it soon. Must be PTS hanging around with all those SPs... This promo piece encapsulates so much of what is wrong with scientology in such a short space. The hype. The astonishing false statistics that are presented as "fact" and accepted just because. The amazing amount of money they feel they are entitled to be given just because they are. The absolute (and unfounded) certainty that they have the ONLY … [Read more...]
Is Scientology A “Terrorist Group”?
Scientology has for many years made outrageous claims about "Anonymous" -- calling it a "group of terrorists." They inflate everything that is ever said or done by anyone with even the remotest connection to Anonymous and by association, attempt to paint anyone they think is criticizing them with the "terrorist" brush. There are NUMEROUS examples of this -- perhaps the earliest was Keith Henson who joked about shooting a "Tom Cru9ise Missile" in Miscavige's window. This was then used to have him prosecuted under the Hate Crimes statute. Miscavige complained bitterly about "death threats" … [Read more...]
Flag Stats
One of our Special Correspondents took the time to take the Mintzmeat announcements over the last year and turn the stats into graphs. While these stats do not reflect every week, they are a representative cross section of the stats over time. The numbers across the bottom simply represent the number of weeks worth of stats that have been collected -- they are not sequential. It is 22 weeks over the last year. The weeks shown on the graphs as 0 are in fact "No Reports" and you can conclude from that the stats were not good for that week. Remember also, Mr. Mintzt tended to put out the … [Read more...]
Andy Porter Speaks
I have known Andy Porter for many, many years. He was somewhat of a legend due to his work opening Russia and many of its former satellites to scientology. Andy spent many years defining the term "pioneer." He was an unsung hero who did a lot of the REAL work behind the scenes that ended up being glorified in IAS Freedom Medal winner videos and other event presentations. Andy now hails from the northwestern corner of Washington State where he lives with his wife and 10 year old son. He is an accomplished landscape photographer focused on capturing the beauty and majesty of the North C … [Read more...]
COB Has Spoke: Pasadena Is Bestest
Dear Leader has, according to the Pasadena OT Committee, deemed Pasadena: "has the most upstat staff, the most upstat OTC members, the most upstat public, in the most upstat area on the planet" I suspect no other orgs have been informed of this. If this is to "show it can be done for the rest of the world!" you would imagine that a more typical org would be chosen... Not the richest (and most arrogant). He has already proven how it can(not) be done in LA Org. Why another one so close? Why not Denver? Or Malmo? Or even London or Rome? But he has a little secret Kevin -- … [Read more...]
Thursday Funnies
Eating Activities The only thing that seems to be happening on L. Ron Hubbard Way these days is brunch and dinner.... Keep Calm... Our old friend Kristen Toth has been busy on FB: Sure glad she put the copyright symbol after "Flag"... Letters Out Speaking of Toths... Desperate times call for desperate measures. This is sent on the theory that "outflow=inflow." I expect the inflow WILL be equal to the outflow.

How Many Humanitarians Does It Take To Screw In A Light Bulb?
Wow. If it really DOES take 35 "humanitarians," it tells you how outrageous Valley "ideal org" is -- as they not only have 48 they have Bart Simpson who counts for about 20. And after 12 years, it tells you how well these other orgs are doing. Hawaii with 1. On this basis, it will take them 420 years to make it to 35.... But no worries because Santa Barbara will be wrapped up by the year 2225. And this is the "closest" Cont to being done? … [Read more...]
LA Org Is Not Clearing LA
More on the latest grand fail. Pathetic stats that these people think are impressive -- and by comparison to other orgs, I am sure they are. But 34 Clears in 4 or 5 months (split the difference and call it 18 weeks) is less than 2 per week. Just for ballpark let's say LA is 10 million people. Clearing this area is going to take a LOOONG time, even if nobody else is born or moves in. 5 million weeks is about 100,000 YEARS. And this is the model, ideal, fully manned with experienced SO members LA Org. The pattern that is now being exported around the world.... I guess these people … [Read more...]
