The "Fair Game" policy by Hubbard authorizes and encourages such
treatment. In HCO PL 18 October 1967 Issue IV Hubbard wrote:
"Enemy - SP Order. Fair game. May be deprived of property or
injured by any means by any Scientologist without any discipline
of the Scientologist. May be tricked, sued or lied to or destroyed."

Hubbard wrote that "Scientology is the only game in the universe
where _everyone_ wins." Even an SP is "helped" when he is "handled"
(even if he "drops his body" - dies) because he will then have a chance
to come back in the next life (Scientologists believe in reincarnation)
and start over again. In the meantime, with the SP removed from the
environment, society will experience a rise in cultural tone.
Hubbard wrote in _Science of Survival_, book one, page 157:
"The sudden and abrupt deletion of all individuals occupying the
lower bands of the tone scale from the social order would result
in an almost instant rise in the cultural tone and would inter-
rupt the dwindling spiral into which any society may have entered."

HCO PL 12 February 1967 _Admin Know-How The Responsibilities of
Leaders_, by L. Ron Hubbard says on page 9, last paragraph:
"He [the leader, or 'power'] doesn't have to know all the bad news
and if he's a power really he won't ask all the time, 'What are
all those dead bodies doing at the door?' And if you are clever,
you never let it be thought HE killed them - that weakens you and
also hurts the power source. 'Well, boss, about all those dead bodies,
nobody at all will suppose you did it. *She* over there, those pink
legs sticking out, didn't like me.' 'Well,' he'll say if he really
is a power, 'why are you bothering me with it if it's done and you
did it. Where's my blue ink?' Or 'Skipper, three shore patrolmen
will be along soon with your cook, Dober, and they'll want to tell
you he beat up Simpson.' 'Who's Simpson?' 'He's a clerk in the
enemy office downtown.' 'Good, when they've done it, take Dober
down to the dispensary for any treatment he needs. Oh yes. Raise
his pay.' Or 'Sir, could I have the power to sign divisional orders?'
'Sure.' "

Hubbard, from _Science of Survival_:
"There are only two answers for the handling of people from 2.0 down
on the tone scale, neither of which has anything to do with reason-
ing with them or listening to their justification of their acts.
The first is to raise them on the tone scale...by any one of the
three valid processes. The other is to dispose of them quietly and
without sorrow."
"It is not necessary to produce a world of clears in order to have a
reasonable and worthwhile [!] social order; it is only necessary to
delete those individuals who range from 2.0 down, either by processing
them enough to get their tone level above the 2.0 line...or simply
quarantining them from society."

>Obermensch - Homo Novis
