Response from Gary Richardson:

“Sheriff Kerns surely doesn’t mean to say, or even imply, that had Kaysie, Gabriel, Hillary and Stacy been Scientologists they would be alive. But it’s such a strange statement for him to make, that it is hard to know what he is really saying. It just seems, at the very least, to be such an ignorant and insensitive statement to make in view of parents that have lost children at Narconon Arrowhead for “unexplained” reasons, for whom paid thousands of dollars to Narconon Arrowhead to hopefully help them with their addictions.“

Gary Richardson Shocked by Sheriff Joe Kerns Comments

Gary Richardson said “to put it mildly, I was shocked to see Pittsburg County Sheriff Kerns on a Fox 23 special doing an interview on Narconon while an investigation is still supposedly on going. That wasn’t, however, quite as shocking as what he said — I recognize a “whitewash” when I see one.”

Love this. Thanks. Can you say this again on Monday and a week from then? It bears repeating.

The only other thing that destroys the bond between mother and child is cps.

SOrry folks– Problems posting from IPad, corrections not holding!

Excellent questions, Truth I Want, and certinaly ecruitment is a basic teneto Scientology. as Claire Headley has shown so clearly, from the beginnig you are required to proselytize, so it is a bit unfair to accuse peoplle like htat of doing thigs wriong..

For the rest– By his own reconning, Marty knerw things were wrong for YEARS before he split (without trying to stop any of the things already in palce, as far as I know– Please correct me if I am wrong)…

Also, when it become a bit less than ‘Hey, try this neifty personality t-est that proves you need Scientology!” and more “SIngn this contract 17 year old girl, or you’ll never see mommy and dd-addya gain!”, or “Look, according to these confidential documents, Mrs Scilon, your husband fantasized about your sister and cheated on you when we sepearated hil from you for 7 years! Leave him!” or “File down your teeth, woman. Tom Cruise wants them smooth!”, or “Force this young ‘Clear’ into the ‘putification rundown’ becasue DM says so and s don’t give her anywn ater or medical x-care until she is s-dying, then don’t wall an ambulance or fgo to the nearest hosipital, but the nearest one with a Scilon docotr, then threated, bribe
.. I dunno, it starts to seem slightly more clear for me..T henagian, I’m ot a ‘CLEAR’ so whatta I know?

And this:

“The bond between mother and child is supposed to be one of the strongest bonds in nature. Scientology is capable of not only weakening that bond, but destroying it entirely. I cannot imagine for a moment what else besides a cult like Scientology would be capable of such an evil act.

Like other cults, your cult encourages bigotry and gives members a feeling of superiority over the rest of society. My parents believe that by refusing to speak to me in the name of your organization that they are actually doing me a favor. They are blinded by the enhanced ego your cult programming has instilled in them. The same ego that Tom Cruise demonstrates when he feels he can advise people on seeking proper mental health care.”

“Auditing is only a way for you to submerge yourself into your imagination and pretend that the world you see around you is an illusion while your imagination is real. Everyone has various reasons for finding such an escape liberating, and even addicting. The founder of your religion knew exactly what he was doing. He used your own mind against you to collect embarrassing truths and incriminating evidence to extort you and anyone else that has been touched by Scientology.”

VERY well said Derek. This should be re posted many times just for the slim chance that a cos member might actually think about it.

Sending you love from a distance Derek… and a huge hug. XXX

That was amazing as are you Derek.
I love you son.

This is an important open letter to the COS. I hope everyone takes a few moments today to read this. You amaze me, Derek. First amendment, indeed. Way to go!
