Great article. “Scientology Dictator, David Miscavige…”? Dude, sounds like Canada is seriously OVER you.

EO – I am glad you are familiar with the current and past court cases. Those are impotent. Philosofa referred to “Cof$ criminality.” You said “What crimes do you mean for example? Just curious.” I listed them – fraud, etc. One of the biggest convictions of course, was for Operation Snow White for break-in in and stealing govt docs, and for which as you know, top GO operatives including Mary Sue Hubbard went to prison.

Oh, where to begin…

– the illegal infiltration and wiretapping of U.S. government offices (dubbed Operation Snow White); several Scientologists were convicted of that, including Mary Sue Hubbard

– the framing of journalist Paulette Cooper for crimes against Scientology Inc, and the attempts to murder her, and to manipulate her into committing suicide (dubbed Operation Freakout)

– the ongoing inhumane treatment of workers in the Sea Org (100 hours of work/week, little to no pay, passports withheld, no access to safety equipment or proper health care – this isn’t a special operation, just general policy)

– the intentional enslavement of minors in the Sea Org (this simply makes me want to throw up)

…and that’s just the beginning. But I’m tired, and I gotta get to bed. If you haven’t heard about all these crimes and abuses, please look them up when you have the time. I hope that helps.

Still here defending scientology, aren’t you EO, under the ruse of “just curious.” BTW, committing crimes and then evading the law or escaping conviction doesn’t mean you are not a criminal. Most people get that, unless they are reflexively defensive due to implanted thought-stopping LRH tech. I doubt that you really “know the lawsuits” and also doubt that you are curious enough to have read today’s full post. Still waiting for you to demonstrate it. Pulling for you, actually.

I know the lawsuits, Free Minds. And I’m not saying that there aren’t been criminal actions been done by Scientologists.

But being involved in a court case doesn’t make someone a criminal, unless you get convicted. That’s why I was curious which criminal action you referred to.

Will do right now! Puts me in a good frame before I head down to Cabo San Lucas!:)

If you want to see some examples of sick, dark, senses of humor, take a look at the lists I’ve gathered from the Bunkaroo’s comments, if you want to see it on view. (Most of them are from this blog, but I’ve purloined a few from other sources). Here’s the Key to the $cientology Nicknames and things said about $cientology http://tonyortega.org/2014/06/12/more-proof-of-kerri-kasems-scientology-involvement-and-laura-prepon-lies-like-a-rug/#comment-1439059781

The biggest list, over 1150 items (a lot are variations, so I’d say that boiled down, it’s about 700 items) is DAVID MI$CAVIGE NICKNAMES http://tonyortega.org/2014/06/12/more-proof-of-kerri-kasems-scientology-involvement-and-laura-prepon-lies-like-a-rug/#comment-1563541963 The ratio of nicknames for DM to LRH is over 4:1. Little Davy sure triggers a lot of animosity.

The one most loaded with snark, and the second longest is the list of THINGS SAID ABOUT $CIENTOLOGY & DIANETICS http://tonyortega.org/2014/06/12/more-proof-of-kerri-kasems-scientology-involvement-and-laura-prepon-lies-like-a-rug/#comment-1439059448

I mean, WE ALL REALLY HAVE AN AMAZINGLY SICK, DARK, SENSE OF HUMOR! I LOVE IT!

EO – Re criminality – Check out the lawsuits, many of them federal. Crimes include fraud (Garcia, Woodward), harassment (Rathbun), coerced abortion (deCrecenzo), and 20-30 lawsuits against Narconon for fraud, fraudulent use of credentials, insurance fraud, and check http://www.forum.exscn.net/forumdisplay.php?99-Legal-and-Government-Actions-against-Scientology for a fuller list. Older include Operation Snow White and Operation Freakout. Someone is keeping track of current court dates but I am not sure who.
