have been hurt is for you to say "ouch".

You have a wee problem here: The vast majority of 'Anons' had no
experience whatsoever with the Church of Scientology before they
joined 'Anonymous', and didn't know anyone who had.
The vast majority never gave Scientology a second thought until
they joined 'Anonymous'.
And none of them have been harmed in any remotely serious way by the
Church of Scientology since they joined it.
Then there's the fact that anonymous complaints simply aren't taken
seriously. They can dump them with impugnity and this applies
to emails even more so than regular letters. They get thousands
of both kinds of communications every day and the first ones
to be dumped are any that are even suspected of being anonymous.
They have no respect for cowards who will not stand behind their
words.
As is the case with most people.
So I don't get this article at all.

If I read your article, I replied to it.
If I didn't reply to it, I didn't read it.
My newsfilter kills about 1/2 the posts to ARS.
Relax, Alan, Geez... all this anger & mindless bullshit. You don't
have to report your stats until Thursday. If you were nice to people
here, I'm sure you would have no trouble putting together alot of BS
to graph & report on Thursday to bring you up-stat.
That's funny, even from you, Alan: I started picketing the pitiful Houston
mission thirteen years ago, after Kobrin assumed she could erase this
newsgroup. (If she's still alive at all these days, I'm fairly sure she
still has no idea of what she brought down on your galloping fraud of a
church.) For a couple of years, off and on, we showed up and what few staff
were in the mission did the job of enturbulating themselves. The mission's
still there, but no one seems to be interested in actually joining for very
long...and there have been occasions when we were up the walk at the
pizzeria, and no one was in the mission. Maybe you should try to find
anyone who was actually on staff there, back then, and see if they have any
pictures of those of us who made our opinions visible to the "Church" and
the real world.

Down here, that's largely a result of the fact that the "Church" isn't
upstat very often. (I guess there are more worthwhile endeavors to pursue
in a city of nearly five million that can't get anywhere near being the home
of an actual org.)
