Thank you so much @azhlynne for your continued efforts to expose the lies told by the #psychoterrorcult that is #scientology. My daughter is being used as a tool of Fair Game -- which is the real violation of human rights. A brainwashed slave putting out Korean POW style videos.

The council was willing to make Mark the sole council-rep on the DDB, but because Mayor Hibbard also wanted to remain on the DDB they decided to simply ignore the DDBs request.

1. Longtime Scientologist Nancy Cartwright (voice of Bart Simpson) slamming "Going Clear," gives you some insight into Scientology talking points and how people like her remain trapped in Scientology.

Cartwright has donated over 20 million dollars to Scientology.

Yes, twenty.
