Greetings. As noted elsewhere, Fair Game has not been canceled, never has been, and never will be. Only Hubbard can cancel the policy, and he's dead (thank god). The phrase "Fair Game" was canceled, not the policy.

Portions of the United States Government already have enough evidence to get subpoenas and search warrants, as well as indite a score or more Scientology staff members for racketeering. For example:
1) The jury deciding Mark Bunker's fate discovered he had been framed and, by implication, the two Chicago police officers who attacked Bunker and stole his film were lying. Since Scientology Inc. paid the police officers to frame Bunker for an imaginary crime, this falls under conspiracy laws, the RICO law, "abuse under authority of law"
laws, human rights abuses, and civil rights abuses. As usual, the DA, the DDA, and the AG did *NOTHING* about following up these crimes.
http://holysmoke.org/mb/mb.htm
2) The jury deciding Jesse Prince's fate discovered he had been framed for the imaginary crime of "drug cultivation and distribution." Under oath, some of the people involved in that attempt revealed they had committed felonies in addition to giving false testamony, lying to the court, and denying Prince his civil and human rights. As usual, the DA, the DDA, and the AG did *NOTHING* about following up these crimes.
http://holysmoke.org/jp/jp.htm
3) The jury deciding Bob Minton's fate discovered he had been framed for the imaginary crime of "assault and battery." The person claiming to be the "victim" was coached by his Scientology masters in what to do and how to do it. He snuck up behind Minton and when Minton turned around, the "victim" flung himself at Minton's feet and "passed out"
(i.e., pretended to be beaten into unconsciousness). As usual, the DA, the DDA, and the AG did *NOTHING* about following up these crimes.
http://holysmoke.org/minton/minton.htm
4) Mark Bunker was assaulted with a hammer by a dope dealer on the streets of Clearwater. The officer first on the scene threatened to ARREST BUNKER and haul him to jail, and refused to listen to Bunker or look at Bunker's tape. As usual, the DA, the DDA, and the AG did *NOTHING* about following up this crime.
http://holysmoke.org/mb/mb.htm
5) There are at least 300 sworn declarations, affidavits, and depositions that assert that the authors were kidnapped, held against their wills, tortured, defrauded, harassed, economically ruined, stalked, and threatened by Scientology Inc. thugs. Children have been stalked on their way to and from school; elderly parents of human rights activists have been viciously harassed and brutalized; there was even the time that Scientologists battered a blind human rights activist, in front of a dozen witnesses, on the sidewalks of Clearwater. As usual, the DA, the DDA, and the AG do *NOTHING* about punishing these crimes. http://holysmoke.org/cos/docs/index.htm
6) There are dozens of on-camera testamonies from children and young adults who explained how they were forced into slavery by Scientology Inc. Pre-teens and early-teens work at adult jobs for 12 to 16 hours a day, with a half-day off every week for "make and mend" (washing their clothing). One girl (16 years old if I recall: Zoe Woodcraft) stated during a conference on criminal cults (I've forgotten the date) that sometimes young Scientologists have to engage in prostitution to live, as there are no other ways they can earn money. Children in the "cadet org" do not go to school. As usual, the DA, the DDA, and the AG do *NOTHING* about these crimes. http://xenutv.org
7) Lisa McPherson: tortured and killed, with over 6,000 pages of documents outlining horrors and abuses that one would only expect in Nazi Germany or in Stalinist Russia--- not in the USA. What did the DA do? Some of the perpetrators were granted immunity from prosecution;
other perpetrators were sent out of the country by Scientology Inc;
the coronor was harassed to the point of fleeing to an insane asyum apparently by a male Scientologist who "got in her pants" first:
lonely women are sometimes easy prey. (Something similar was used against Paulette Cooper.) http://holysmoke.org/lm/lm.htm
8) Graham Berry, esq., framed for damn near every felony imaginable short of murder (okay--- I'm exagerating: to list all of the crimes he was framed for would take too much effort). The two chief perjurers later confessed, one of whom wrote a long and detailed account of who paid him to frame Berry, how much he was paid, and why. There is a large pile of evidence, including declarations, depositions, and cash receipts, which show Scientology Inc. engaged in blackmail, bribery, witness tampering, subornation of perjury, obstruction of justice, false criminal complaints, false state bar complaints, abuse of process, bankruptcy court fraud, insurance fraud, slander, libel, and civil and human rights abuses. As usual, the DA, the DDA, and the AG do *NOTHING* about these crimes. http://holysmoke.org/gb/gb.htm
9) Keith Hwnson framed for "interferring with a 'religion.'" The Riverside DA's office falsified documents and defrauded the court, and Henson has uncontested and irrefutable evidence showing so. Henson was engaged in Constitutionally recognized and protected picketing and protesting, with no violation of any laws, but was arrested anyhow.
The judge refused to allow Henson to defend himself, even going so far as to refuse to let Henson say why he was protesting Scientology Inc.
As usual, the DA, the DDA, and the AG do *NOTHING* about these crimes.
http://holysmoke.org/kh/kh.htm
10) Judging by court transcripts, depositions, and declarations, it appears that Bob Minton is being blackmailed by Scientology Inc. It appears that the material used to blackmail him was stolen, via burglary, out of the office of one of his business partners in the United Kingdom. It also appears to be the case that at least one judge considers this possible. As usual, the DA, the DDA, and the AG do *NOTHING* about these crimes. http://holysmoke.org/minton/minton.htm
11) The FBI is sent to Barb Warr's residence to investigate a "bomb threat" sent anonymously to them via e-mail.
12) El Queso gets a visit from the FBI after they receive a complaint about "bomb threats."
13) Four human rights activists are interrogated after Scientology Inc. tells Tampa police the four human rights activists are the "most likely" to have set fire to the Tampa Scientology brainwashing center.
The above are the highlights of recent crime syndicate "fair game"
activity. Lots more has been reported in a.r.s., but to collect them all and list brief outlines would take a great deal of effort--- which I don't wish to expend at the moment.

Any inattention that any 'watchdog' agencies may exhibit can be assumed at this point to be purely deliberate.
Anything they *don't* know about, they don't *want* to know about, because the possibility always remains that someone somewhere might actually take his oath to fulfill his duties seriously, and then the popping pustule of postulated pecuniary prurience would make a hell of a mess, not to mention getting all over service jackets.
Much better to take the collateral damage of broken families, broken laws and broken oaths less seriously, since they're just a bunch of rich wackos (Not Wacos! Not Wacos! Even if they *do* have a Cult Compound with Guns!) and hope that they'll go away by themselves without overturning the apple-cart.
After all; they're not only not on the *front* burner, they're actually on the broken hotplate in the basement. Out of sight;

I've thought of a few more entries, mostly of Klan-like behavior on Scientology Inc.'s part against human rights activists.

Agreed. As Henson says, borrowing from the Canadians, "No one wants to lift the tail of the skunk."
In the USA, law enforcement failed, and later refused, to curb the Ku Klux Klan's criminal behavior. It took law suits filed by enough of their victims to punish the Klan for its crimes and human rights abuses.

There is also the money factor: prosecuting Scientology Inc. for their crimes and human rights abuses will cost a massive amount of money. At an estimate, I'd say the crime syndicate would cheerfully spend $200,000,000 defending itself. The crime syndicate no longer has Hubbard to defend like it did last time: ergo no 11 crime bosses to throw to the law enforcement wolves. Now there's just (*) to protect, and I suspect he knows that ver of his slave staff members will be willing to go to prison for him.
It could cost a quarter-billion dollars and 20 years to sucessfully prosecute Scientology Inc. Spending that much money would be political suicide; also, most public offices don't last 20 years and the people who started the prosecution would not be the ones to finish it.
Ain't no wonder law enforcement ignores Scientology Inc.'s felonies, international customs violations, international immigration violations, and human rights abuses. Scientology Inc. is counting on law enforcement's inability to fuction effectively.

I suspect law enforcement is waiting for enough victims, who have enough money, to put an end to Scientology Inc.'s crimes and human rights abuses via tort lawsuits.

Unlike the Ku Klux Klan, the Scientology crime syndicate has learned to slip under the radar of law enforcement.

Accuracy, shy, accuracy. It wasn't the FBI, it was the local PD's domestic terrorism unit, the Criminal Intelligence Unit. And the "bomb threat" wasn't such, nor was it email. There was no bomb threat. There was an anonymous phone call whining that I planned to blow up the church of Scientology. I learned this when I called one of the detectives to find out when I could collect copies of the complaint. It was only a phone call, no paper trail. Regardless, they had to investigate. They left here with much more information about the cult than they probably wanted, but I think they're pretty clear now on who the criminals are.

Here it is:
From: Frog (FrogRemailer@bigfoot.com)
Subject: (amicus) N, exhibit: on the issue of Fair Game
Date: 2002-09-05 04:58:40 PST
N. ON THE SPECIFIC ISSUE OF FAIR GAME
The issue of FAIR GAME is raised in Vol4 Brooks testimony, on 07/may:
page 456
01 Mr. Minton provided -- I'm starting in the middle here of 02 the second paragraph on the page hand-numbered 2.NOTE: Scientology never denies that it once had such a policy, but does (falsely) deny that the policy continues in effect.03 "Mr. Minton also provided financial assistance to 04 several Scientology critics, including Grady Ward, Keith 05 Hensen[sic], Lawrence Wollersheim and Arnaldo Lerma, who had 06 become targets of Scientology's infamous 'Fair Game' 07 practices, in which anyone who is identified as an 'enemy' 08 can be tricked, sued, lied to or destroyed for the good of 09 Scientology."
10 What is the Fair Game practice or policy?
Mr Fugate's denial of it is, specifically (as is show below) perjury:
11 MR. FUGATE: Your Honor, first of all, I object 12 to that because it's my understanding that that is 13 no longer -- that that was a writing that occurred 14 years ago and it was withdrawn. And I don't know 15 what her knowledge of it is in its current state, 16 and I would object to it on that basis.
17 THE COURT: Well, it is overruled because this 18 all goes to the right to cross-examine to see 19 whether or not this court will believe their 20 rationale for coming forward with this perjury, and 21 therefore whatever is in her mind is relevant.
22 Now, your objection, therefore, is overruled at 23 this time.
24 MR. FUGATE: I'm objecting for the record, 25 Judge.
page 457
[.......] The witness adds endless spin to obscure the truth of the matter:
19 THE COURT: I don't know what the Fair Game -- 20 is that the Fair Game policy?
21 THE WITNESS: Well, no, the Fair Game policy -- 22 and again, your Honor, you know, the Fair Game 23 policy is another thing that -- I mean, you have to 24 understand, you know, I was -- I was part of a group 25 of advocates. I was part of a group of very,
page 458
01 very -- Mmm, how do you say it -- you know, who had 02 a very clear agenda to destroy Scientology.
03 And Fair Game policy is another one of these 04 sort of buzz words that the critic community uses 05 and that I use a lot to paint Scientology in the 06 worst possible light.
Her denial of Fair Game is, specifically, perjurious:
07 What the Fair Game policy -- I mean, Mr. Fugate 08 is correct when he says that the policy itself is 09 cancelled back in the '60s sometime, but, you know, 10 anybody who is a critic of Scientology -- and when I 11 say critic of Scientology, I mean that is sort of a 12 broad term for this community of people who feel 13 very strongly that Scientology should be done away 14 with.
15 Fair Game is a term -- well, it is basically 16 what I say here, you know, that anybody who is a 17 critic of Scientology can be basically destroyed for 18 the good of Scientology. That is how critics feel 19 about it.
20 THE COURT: And even though -- I'm sorry, but 21 even though the policy itself has been undone, I 22 take it, and they say we don't do that anymore, 23 we don't have a Fair Game policy, ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Except that this is an outright lie.
23 if they ever had one,
+++++
THE CONTEXT OF FAIR GAME. "Fair Game" is part of the so-called Church's system of so-called Ethics. As such they regard it as part of their "(Spiritual) Technology", in outside terms as part of doctrine. It is, however, an instruction for practical behaviour, and not merely a matter of conducting its own business in its own way but a policy of unlawful attacks on the rights of others. The "Ethics" of Scientology are closely similar to the Ethics of Hell as described in C. S. Lewis's book "The Screwtape Letters": good intentions count for nothing, money production is everything. He who produces well is ethical, and immune from penalties over the complaints of others. Harming production, by laziness or incom- petence or even force of circumstance, is unethical behaviour over which you will be made to "report to ethics" and suffer penalties.
The term Fair Game occurs in a Policy Letter on "Ethics Penalties".
There are a series of penalties for rebellious or unproductive behaviour, the lowest condition for the worst offenders being declaration as an ENEMY of Scientology, equivalent to expulsion or excommunication: the person cannot receive any scientology services unless they crawl back, apologise, make redress, and are accepted back through a process of groveling. The punish- ment for being expelled is similar to the idea of being "out-lowed".
Scientologists believe the laws of their religion -- it does not have a god -- are superior to "wog law" i.e. they can obey the laws of their religion (do what they want) above the laws of civilised society. And an enemy is out-lowed, declared Fair game, protection of Scientology law is withdrawn from them so that Scientologists can attack them as much as they like without penalty and, by implication are encouraged to do so.
Strictly speaking, the only person who will receive as piece of paper saving they are "declared" an enemy or suppressive person is a former member being expelled. However, such treatment is regularly meted out to anyone who in practice becomes an enemy of the Church -- for example, by reproving it in public for locking someone up until she died of thirst.
+++++
HAS FAIR GAME BEEN CANCELLED? The alleged Church of Scientology has never denied that, at one time, ethics penalties were laid down as in the following HCOPL.....
HUBBARD COMMUNICATIONS OFFICE
Saint Hill Manor, East Grinstead, Sussex Remimeo
HCO Policy Letter of 18 October 1967 Issue IV
PENALTIES FOR LOWER CONDITIONS
(Applies both Orgs and Sea Org)
LIABILITY Suspension of pay and a dirty grey rag on left arm and day and night confinement to org premises.
TREASON Suspension of pay and deprivation of all uniforms and insignia, a black mark on left cheek and confinement on org premises or dismissal from post and debarment from premises.
DOUBT Debarment from premises. Not to be employed. Payment of fine amounting to any sum may have cost org. Not to be trained or processed. Not to be communicated or argued with.
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.
LRH:jp L. RON HUBBARD
The policy was later amended as follows....
HUBBARD COMMUNICATIONS OFFICE Saint Hill Manor, East Grinstead, Sussex Remimeo
HCO Policy Letter of 21 October 1968
CANCELLATION OF FAIR GAME
The practice of declaring people FAIR GAME will cease. FAIR GAME may not appear on any Ethics Order. It causes bad public relations.
This P/L does not cancel any policy on the treatment or handling of an SP.
LRH:ci:cden L. RON HUBBARD
Let us now look at the text as amended by the new PL...
ENEMY SP Order. [Phrase deleted]. 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. The actual policies on the treatment or handling of enemies have not been changed.
It is on this basis that Scientologists say "Fair Game has been cancelled". The WORDS Fair Game have ceased in official use.
They say this, and misdirect the hearer into thinking that the behaviour -- tricking, suing, lying to and destroying enemies -- has also been changed. But it has not. The actual policies on the treatment or handling of an enemy have not been changed.
Lying by misdirection is an official Scientology policy:
supposedly "wogs" are too dim and aberrated to take the whole truth, therefore you have to dilute it down to an acceptable truth (i.e. tell them a half-truth which leads them to infer the conclusion you want) which their poor fuddled minds can handle (from HCOPL 13 August 1970 Issue II PR Series 2, in the _Volunteer Minister's Handbook_, page 461, by L. Ron Hubbard)...
Handling truth is a touchy business also. You don't have to tell everything you know -- that would jam the comm line too. Tell an *acceptable truth*.
Agreement with one's message is what PR is seeking to achieve.
Thus the message must compare to the personal experience of the audience.
So PR becomes the technique of communicating an acceptable truth -- and which will attain the desirable result.
If there's no chance of obtaining a desirable result and the truth would injure then talk about something else.
However, a person who has lived for years outside the cult after leaving such as Ms Brooks (or an officer of the court like Mr Fugate) should understand the exact meaning of the oath. It is more than an oath to tell "nothing but the truth" i.e. abstain from specific falsehoods. There is also a requirement to tell "the whole truth"
i.e. not to misdirect by telling whole truths but to make a full and accurate answer to any question asked. It is one thing for Scientology press releases to say "we have cancelled use of Fair Game" meaning the words, and mislead the audience that the practice has also been cancelled. To do so in court is perjury.
Ms Brooks, in particular, knows exactly what the true situation is yet still chooses to utter a deliberate lie.
+++++
I was not previously aware of the testimony of Robert Vaughan Young on 17/june, page 189, which explains this exactly:The following is from Jon Atack's General report on Scientology, but gives primary sources such as court papers (mainly in the Wollersheim case). from http://home.snafu.de/tilman/j/general.html.08 Q What is Exhibit 9 then?
09 A Exhibit 9 is -- is a page with two policy letters 10 on it. Because they're both short. This is one from one of 11 the volumes, the same pages. You printed more than one of 12 them to a page.
13 Number one is entitled "Cancellation of Fair Game"
14 written in 1968 by Hubbard.
15 Q So did that cancel Number 8, Exhibit 8?
16 A No. This was -- this is one of the most -- more 17 controversial policy letters. It is often cited by 18 Scientology to say fair game was canceled, here is the 19 policy, see this cancellation of fair game.
20 When I was a PR working with media, governmental 21 authorities, I did that. I pulled it out and I said, "See, 22 fair game was canceled."
23 And that is because the person didn't understand 24 the rest of it. Because it says here, "This PL," meaning 25 policy letter, "does not cancel any policy on the treatment
page 190
1 or handling of an SP."
2 Well, this other one that we have here was "How 3 you handle an SP. May be sued, tricked or lied."
4 What he's saying here, and it says it clearly -- I 5 mean, I hate to say it says what it says, but this has gone 6 into courts, government, media, government agencies and they 7 haven't caught on, so pardon me if I said -- point out he 8 says fair game may not appear on any ethics order.
9 In other words, the words "fair game" may not 10 appear on any ethics order because it is bad public 11 relations.
12 The next sentence, "This does not change any 13 policy on how to handle SPs."
14 So all we stopped doing is we stopped using the 15 words "Fair game," but everything else he wrote about how to 16 destroy an SP, you do it, fair game policy was not canceled, 17 just the use of the words.
+++++
You will appreciate the THESE PERSONS AND CASES ARE THOSE WHICH THE DEFENDANT CHURCH HAS, TTSELF, RAISED AS RELEVANT TO THE INSTANT CASE.
77. In Wollersheim v. Church of Scientology of California (the "mother church" of the Churches of Scientology at the time the suit was filed), the California Appeal Court ruled, in a decision upheld by the US Supreme Court: "Wollersheim was compelled to abandon his wife and his family through the policy of disconnect. When his mental illness reached such a level he actively planned his suicide, he was forbidden to seek professional help. Finally, when Wollersheim was able to leave the Church, it subjected him to financial ruin through its policy of 'fair game'." (JCA-147, pp.A-7, 15 & 16). At appeal, Scientology asserted that "fair game" was a "core practice of Scientology", and therefore protected as "religious expression". This position was also made on behalf of Scientology in the case against Gerald Armstrong, in 1984, by religious expert Dr. Frank Flinn (JCA-45).
78. In the same case (Church of Scientology of California v. Armstrong) (JCA-7), Judge Paul Breckenridge criticised the continued use of Fair Game, showing that the policy had remained in force beyond the supposed cancellation in 1980. Judge Breckenridge said: "In addition to violating and abusing its own members' civil rights, the [Scientology] organization over the years with its 'Fair Game' doctrine has harassed and abused those persons not in the Church whom it perceives as its enemies." Judge Breckenridge added, "After the within suit was filed ...
Defendant Armstrong was the subject of harassment, including being followed and surveilled by individuals who admitted employment by Plaintiff; being assaulted by one of these individuals; being struck bodily by a car driven by one of these individuals; having two attempts made by said individuals apparently to involve Defendant Armstrong in a freeway automobile accident; having said individuals come onto Defendant Armstrong's property, spy in his windows, create disturbances, and upset his neighbors".

87. In a statement recusing himself from a Scientology case, California judge James Ideman said "The past eight years have consisted mainly of a prolonged, and ultimately unsuccessful, attempt to persuade or compel the plaintiff to comply with lawful discovery. These efforts have been fiercely resisted by plaintiffs. They have utilized every device that we on the District Court have ever heard of to avoid such compliance, and some that are new to us. This noncompliance has consisted of evasions, misrepresentations, broken promises and lies, but ultimately with refusal. As part of this scheme to not comply, the plaintiffs have undertaken a massive campaign of filing every conceivable motion (and some inconceivable) to disguise the true issue in these pretrial proceedings. Apparently viewing litigation as war, plaintiffs by this tactic have had the effect of massively increasing the costs to the other parties, and, for a while, to the Court ... The scope of the plaintiffs' efforts have to be seen to be believed ... 1,737 filings [were made by Scientology] ... Yet it is almost all puffery -- motions without merit or substance." (JCA-159).

This cancels the policy *letter.* The subject policy letter "Penalties for Lower Conditions" is only one statement of the fair game policy. It is erroneously sometimes called the "fair game policy." But it is only a single statement about treatment of SPs, which is used by those who oppose the cult, and necessarily the policy, because it is such a concise, accurate description of the policy.
The policy or doctrine is really one of opportunistic hatred.
Scientologists do toward the "enemy" what they have an opportunity to do, and what they can get away with. For many people in the cult this entails *creating* opportunities to attack the "enemy." See, e.g., http://www.gerryarmstrong.org/50grand/cult/juggernaut-eval.html

Whoever regards Intelligence solely as "Information Gathering" has not moved with the times.
The Japanese disturbed all this with the Intelligence creation of "incidents" then exploited by PR.
The Russians use this (from the Japs) continually.
The "incident" brought about behind the scenes is then pitilessly exploited by PR.
To reverse this PR then Intelligence, is out of sequence.
With knowledge, incident and technique, Intelligence properly causes first in any sequence of events.

Fair game is not just a policy, it is also a philosophy and practice.
On the cult's "Admin Scale," above "policy" is "purposes," and above "purposes" is "goals." Fair game is in alignment with, and is, Scientology's purpose and goal. It is basic to Scientology, and Scientology would not be Scientology without it. It is the philosophy of Scientology that underlies and justifies every attack of every description.
Fair game is as basic to Scientology as forgiveness is to Christianity. Fair game is the only response to attack, even the slightest perceived attack or slightest criticism, that Scientologists, pursuant to their philosophy, policy and practice, are allowed. Even apparent concession or agreement is covert in order to gain time or positional advantage for attack; that is, concession to or agreement with perceived criticism is itself an attack.
Psychologically, fair game is projection. Forgiveness is extension;
that is, extension of love, since love flows into the space left by forgiveness. Forgiveness itself does nothing. Scientologists are only permitted the basest of psychological responses -- projection. But because it's what's required of them, rewarded and constantly reinforced, they are unable to see that it's base, animalistic, and unconscious psychology. Scientologists are rewarded for executing command intention; and command intention is projection, or fair game.
A Christian practicing fair game is not being Christian. A Christian organization practicing fair game is not doing Christ's Will, and is not doing Christianity. A Scientologist practicing forgiveness is not doing command intention, and is not being Scientological. A Scientologist practicing fair game is being "a living embodiment of LRH technology," and most definitely is doing Scientology. An organization not doing fair game is not a Scientology org, but doing Christ's Will, no matter what widgets they're manufacturing.
If an individual practices only projection he is a sociopath. If he doesn't limit his projection to what is within the law, he is commonly classified as a psychopath. Obviously the law allows anyone to project all day long and to be a sociopath his whole life. If people organize to put projection into practice, however, such an organization can very easily become a criminal conspiracy. And that is what fair game is.
Black PR is an indispensable part of the fair game philosophy, policy and practice. Because black PR is *organized,* for the purpose of beastifying an "enemy" target to create opportunities for the rest of fair game to be executed -- "injured by any means" -- black PR itself is a criminal act by a criminal conspiracy.
OSA is organized to practice fair game, and as this checksheet shows, OSA is training people to practice fair game.

This section of our web site shows beyond quibble that fair game as of this date is still the basic philosophy, policy and practice of the Scientology cult:
http://www.gerryarmstrong.org/50grand/cult/index.html
The best document I know of for showing that the criminal conspiracy is organization-wide, and considered by virtually every Scientologist to be so vital that it is senior to their cult's creed, is this "contract" by which every Scientology-related organization, group, affiliated entity, and all of their directors, officers, employees, volunteers, agents and even lawyers, are bound to the conspiracy.
http://www.gerryarmstrong.org/50grand/legal/a1/mutual-release-1986.html They are all contracted to a conspiracy to deprive an individual of his civil rights, a U.S. federal crime.
http://www4.law.cornell.edu/uscode/18/241.html
A necessary aspect of projection is the occlusion of the actual destructive, evil intention for the projection. Scientologists are required and organized to keep their actual destructive intention hidden, and many are successful in suppressing their evil intentions toward their fair game "enemies" into their unconscious. Almost universally, once people leave Scientology, however, they become conscious of the fear, hatred and the desire to "deliver an effective to the enemy," with which they were inculcated to make them a functioning group member.
But when Scientology or its practitioners, apologists or collaborators deny fair game, as the organization's philosophy, policy and practice, they are actually practicing fair game. The only way to stop practicing Scientology fair game is to leave Scientology. It is that basic and that pervasive in the organization, subject and Scientological mind.
There is nothing new about fair game. People were depriving "enemies"
of property, injuring the "enemies" by any means they could think of, or tricking, suing, lying to them, or destroying them long before Hubbard wrote his catchy policy letter. Criminal conspiracies existed long before Hubbard organized Scientology into one. He gave the name "fair game" to the philosophy, policy and practice of Scientology's brand of criminal conspiracy, and made that brand heavily intelligence-based. But Scientology's criminal conspiracy would be a criminal conspiracy by any other name.
