Tory Gives Example Of How Scientology Some Times Response To Pickets

Tory/Magoo

Stunned!

Picketers arrive.

Security called, IMMEDIATELY. They arrive, cameras out,
"Why are you here". (Or they just take photos).

You: "We're picketing" keep moving.

They: Snap, Snap, Cameras on.

You: Keep picketing.

They: Call ALL the public AND staff inside, lock all doors, shut the shades. (NO ONE CAN SEE YOU).

You: Keep picketing.

They (May) Call an "OT" to come try to handle you.

OT arrives: "Hi---what's up? Why are you all here?

You all: We believe in free speech, what's up with your church that they have to stop free speech, break up families, and lie about your x-members? (simple, easy, true).

OT: "WE blah blah blah. Attack on members, attack, did you know blah blah. (Attacks).

You: Ask nicely: DID YOU JUST HEAR YOURSELF PUTTING DOWN AN X- MEMBER? WHY? Why do you all HAVE To do that? Keep picketing, don't stop moving. Their goal is to distract you from picketing. Keep your eyes on the ball. Don't worry about them, they are NOT listening.

The old days of they picketing back ended with the Net.

Have fun, realize if they come out--it's only to try to intimidate you, and distract you. Call the cops first, too. Get a name of someone, just in case you need them. Have one person who is picketing give that cop your name, too, so when you call, you can say, "This is Amy --I called you earlier, we are picketing Scientology. They're telling us we are not allowed to _____. Is that true?"

The other thing to know is that this date is very public now, so there's a chance they'll try to counter your picket. Example: If they know we're going to picket an event here, they call and get a "movie License" and block off the entire street, so you can't be infront of their orgs.

What we realized is: It doesn't matter! You're not going to get people OUT Of Scientology, hardly ever with a picket.

But you *Can* educate the others around them. So with that, even if they have up signs blocking their org...just leave that be. Go to the nearest Main Street (where ever there is HIGH traffic) and picket *there*. See? That way you can exercise your Free speech rights, without any of their stupid ways.

Good luck :)
