Picket Report, Atlanta, October 18, 2008

with thumbtacks shaped like little red flags. Lulz. There had
apparently been 4, but one had blown off the pole and was making its
way across the grass, with help from the wind. Once again, the
scientologists have broken the littering law.
Here's a copy of the flyers; added at the bottom of two were the
words, "READ IT AND WEEP," and on the other two, "WHO'S NEXT?"

This amused us greatly, first, because we have no association with any
of the people mentioned in the flyer, but primarily, because after all
these years (including at least as far back as the old critics in the
90s) scientology has no concept of individuals acting alone and
standing for something they believe in without being directed by a
leader or an organization.
We had a good and enjoyable picket, with most of the regulars
(Lolita's Hard Ass Club), some new people, and some from several
months ago who returned. Our only cause for concern was that when we
arrived, the police weren't there. After having the riot police in
Feb. and March, then less and less presence of the police with each
month, I can only assume this just goes to show how non-threatening
the police now think we are. One of us made a call or two to the
police to find out if they were coming, and after about an hour, a
couple of cars, with one officer in each, showed up and took their
customary positions at each of the driveways into the complex.
Our unofficial theme was "Dancing on scientology's grave" and for it,
we had a devil's food cake with dark chocolate fudge icing, decorated
with frosting and sugar grass, a fence, and tombstones marked "CULT,"
"CCHR," "NAR CON ON," "WISE," "RTC," and "ABLE." Dancing amongst the
tombstones were Epic Fail Guys in their Guy Fawkes masks.

We had a V spider about to catch a David Miscavige fly in a web to
decorate the bushes.

And some life-size tombstones for the real life anons (who are NOT
EFGs, by the way) to dance among.

There was a spider cake made of cupcakes, a couple of snack trays, and
lots of cookies, so we were well provided for this time. Some people
brought water, Coke, and green tea ginger ale. We made a pretty good
showing, and got lots of honks from passing cars:

Our local rep from Pfizer was there:

As the end of the picket approached, the cake had been decimated, and
the epic fail guys who found the ground ripped from underneath them
had gone to dance on the edges of the picket signs.

We took our group shot:
http://alley.ethercat.com/picket-2008-10-18/P1040847.JPG
and started cleaning up. An odd fellow appeared, though I'm not sure
if he was a scilon, and started asking everyone one by one, "What do
you do for a living?" Most that I saw gave him the cold shoulder, and
one anon told him, "This and that." Another anon asked him, "What do
YOU do for a living?" to which he replied "Real estate." Odd... very
odd... and these kinds of odd things always seem to happen at the end
of the pickets.
Afterwards, most of us gathered in an undisclosed location and had
dinner, and some did some flyering. We discussed the upcoming
narconon picket on the 25th, talked about what to do for Halloween,
and tossed out some ideas for the November picket.
Thank you guys for coming, and hope to see all of you, and more, at
the next one. A lot of our activities are being discussed on our
Atlanta ning site, AtlAnon.ning.com, and all Atlanta centered anons
are welcome to join in there. (Including YOU, MadKow! ^__^)

ROFL! The insane Scientology criminals think that people exercising
their Constitutional rights around the world are some how illegal.
What utterly insane criminals. Amazing.

Yours is an extreme example, but this happens most everywhere. Provided
the protesters don't lose their cool at the initial police idiocy, they
fade away and eventually become more annoyed with the cult's phone calls
about terrorists.
You now have to be ready for the cult trying dirty tricks because the
police aren't watching of course. Perhaps advising the police of the
cult's record in this respect would be sensible, you don't want them
ignoring phone calls from you as well as from the cult.

I would reinterpret that. "Weed it and reap." Heh. Take that, cult!

Thanks. The police are aware of the cult's tactics. We made sure of
that in late March/early April.

Can't claim credit for the idea of lulzy pickets; those are courtesy
of anonymous.

Unfortunately, we have a law against masks here - it's suspended for
Halloween, but not at "public gatherings" on Halloween. Yes, that is
vague, but we're fighting scientology, not the law. The law is
courtesy of the KKK, not anonymous.

Thanks, everyone. It doesn't seem like it takes much to beat them
into submission here. I guess they have too many other things to
worry about than anonymous and some old SPs. ^_^

From the flier, it looks like they have decided to label anybody who
commits a crime "an Anonymous member." That's so lame it's beyond
pitiful.

It's funny. The insane criminals do this because they know damn well that
Anonymous is winning. The crooks see their revenues leap off down the
shitter and they have to lie to their remaining customers -- that's a win
for Anonymous and, amusingly, for the whole fucking world. These insane
criminals sending disjointed news articles that doesn't concern anyone
the insane criminals hand them to is proof that Anonymous kicking crime
syndicate ass is making the criminals angry and frustrated.

And since the kooks are doing it around the world, it means that
David Miscaviage gave them their insane directive. Amusing.
