I stopped by Kinko's on the way in to get 200 sheets photocopied both sides.....what a screw job that was $38...and I used thier computer to make up an 11 x 17 micro picket sign also... the fliers were two to a single 8.5 x 11 printed both sides...copy pasted below.
It was exciting, the security was er.....extreme...at least 20 probably more like 30 or more police and 4 or 5 cruizers parked around the event.
It was overcast in the SF bay area, wind and rain predicted, But it was nice the entire day about 60 degrees with one very slight sprinkle.
I had called the police friday evening informing that I would be picketing alone and was worried about assault or attempts to frame me with a weapon or some such.. They told me to check in with an officer when I got there to be safe, which I did, 4 or 5 different cops and showed them that I was just carrying fliers and the sign that was it. I got a card from the Sargent in charge ... the card reads Carl T no last name or badge number...I teased him about the silver embossed star on it....he said somewhat defensively that they had to buy thier own cards, so it was on him... a real friendly guy, sharp...more on him later. I handed fliers to two lady officers sitting in a squad car...they were very helpful. Only one officer seemed to be a stick in the mud and on the scn side..an older guy but we were cordial and in the end he had to wish me well. The captain of the police precinct in the orgs old location was scheduled to talk but due to worries about the weather didnt ...Carl said his now the captain in the cults new precinct area.
At dinner one of the handers said Willy Brown showed up but not Tom Cruize...however at one point in the event a hord of people ran over to the Columbus street side to meet Tom as he arrived...I got as close as I could but didnt seen anything....I was not able to get close enough to hear the speakers but could see them...Id say it was probably all the flag heavies. I dont know if DM made it, a bad place to be if one is trying to avoid legal service in so many lawsuits as he is.
I had arrived dressed vwell, new beige Cargo pants, Leather jacket...and I even shaved. Not bad for an old fart...I felt pretty natty and I had on real comfortable suede desert boot type shoes.
The new org is in one of SF's historical buildings, white stone of some type, nice architecture 3 stories, wedge shaped.... the front door of the place is at the point where Columbus and Montgomery intersect..its rounded with the scn and dianetics logo's and 'scientology' letters over the entrance in stone, tastefully...
.. the event was on Columbus st...with a big tent on one end of Columbus and the podium near the pointy end on Columbus was blocked to all but invited guests. The place was swarming with scn's...but Id say the crowd was light. the area could be called half of a block cut diagonally across...a block long but only yards wide the narrow end and maybe 120' wide at the fat end.
The handlers and the hedge, tent and police kept me from getting a good view of the inside area...a high hedge was on one side, but I managed to walk past twice..and look though the hedge the handlers were not successful in blocking my view... I didnt linger though. I just walked past with my sign down under my arm out of respect for thier unfortunate condition....arnaldo would have held it up so those watching the speakers would see the URL....The police said I couldnt hand out fliers there as the entire sidewalk was rented by scn....but they said reluctantly that I could walk on it to get to the other end...so I did that.
I watched traffic come at 1pm and leave at around 3:30 pm... total crowd under 300 imho, maybe under 200.... but all mostly very well dressed and professional looking... ages primarily between 35 and 45 or 50... not too many older than that.
The Stevens Creek Org staff (15 or 20) arrived in a stretch limo about 1:15 pm...in time to look my picket sign over from about 10' away as they each stepped out of side door..... the cults handlers had not arrived yet...but thier security was all over like paint.. at least 20 maybe more.
it read;
xenu.net (3" letters) A Margaret Singer Memorial Picket ( 1" letters)
the other side read:
It's a CULT Xenu.net ( I think A margaret singer Mermorial picket. same letter sizes
no stick. I had a cardboard between the two signs and just held it up with my hand.... (..I gave the sign to an OSA lady when the picket was over as a trophy. they took me to dinner...we talked for an hour about reverse processing, and that sort of thing and Tory too....They declined to give me thier names to include in this post...I told em I understand as we rode in thier car to the restaurant me sandwiched between an OSA lady and OSA guy in the back seat....it was a hoot.)
The entry to the org was in marble and the original stone with carvings and the wood was finished naturally. looking inside the building to the offices those were very well outfitted... impressive as hell Id say. Across from the Org though were several smaller buildings a deli etc under renovation one with the windows boarded up. Will it fool the hgh rollers doing lunch at the titty bars? I dont think so. But some of the people after the cults business associations will definitely be impressed....money... money laundering... links to a private line of business will draw more than a few of the financial district people into the cult...imho... they sure didnt try to come in cheap on this deal.
The org is two blocks south of the Condor club and the Hungry Eye is not bad for SF...its on the edge of the financial district and directly across the street from the Pyramid building..
The speakers podium had a huge color pic of Elrong...not the usual black and white and not so huge as to out of place as in some other events....but still big Id say with frame 4 x 8' or so....the podium was in front of a huge arch, well colored and lit...I couldnt hear what the speakers were saying as the handlers had arrived by then and kept up a constant banter.... that was very interesting. Tory will be impressed.
One cultie carring a Mat Gonzoles for mayor sign tried to block my sign... He wasnt interested in a flier but many of the scn's were and they mostly tried to handle my and my 'upset'...in a generally mature and respectful way..and to tie me up so I would be passing out fliers... the succeeded to a large extent but I still handed out approx 200 fliers.
OA used very well behaved professional caliber people, as handlers this time... with a sense of humor and who behaved naturally. I told them I would write them up that way and give them a 9.5 or 10.... later one of the women became a little agressive with her umbrella (blocking my sign and talking so I demoted her to a 9... not bad at all. I told them all about the various batches of screaming sociopaths and stranglers we face in the and told them that *this was progress.. I got more than a few wheels turning in some of their heads possibly.
All along they kept suggesting that my arm was getting tired and that I should rest it and go to lunch with them...I said after the event. That went on as incessant banter ...between the the times I was answering thier questions about why I was a critic... I told them I would go to dinner only at my favorite Tai restaruant with the curry prawns and egg plant. They said OK if I went then...I said after the picket. since Jeff Quiros had been turning me down, they would make up for it.
After the picket I said lets go....THEY TOOK ME TO DINNER... amazing. I was so pleased I gave my picket sign to one of the lady's for a trophie...none would give me thier actual names though. We went in one of the handers BMW SUV... 3 miles or so to the tai place. I called Tory's land line from the restaurant but she wasnt home I wanted to them to hear her congratulate them on such polite behavior....that would have been fun and I think progress all around... they definately got an earful from me...and I wasnt doing too badly. I was polite but no punches were pulled, I told them detail about the cult op on me and mental hospital thang but didnt get a chance to fill them in all the detail of the Brain Quigley disaster.
The only lapse in generally fun and decent behavior was when KTVU FOX 2 rolled up with a camera and John Sasaki to interview me ( I called Tory with his phone number after the interview)... they interviewed me on camera for about 5 minutes. I told them ask questions I will try to answer... I dont recall all that I said...one of the questions was how do I define a cult as different from a church or some such...I said a cult is after power and money and a church with some exceptions is a civic service organization....
.I forgot most of what else I said, I discussed the cults long long criminal history world wide as I was holding the xenu.net side of my sign to the camera...and said further details could be gotten at that web site...I was holding the sign about 6" from my face at head level... The camera was back about 8;...it should show up on the tape.
and I talked about xenu.net's many other links to other sites and court records...I also said that most of the scns you meet in the orgs are truly decent people just victims of this cult and tht real crime went on at the top....I may have mentioned Slatkin but dont recall...I did mention the FBI raids and the 11 sent to prison for espionage.
I gave John Sasaki (who presents himself very very well btw and handled the hell out of the cults handers who were tying to block his filming of me with thier umbrella's...he laid right into them...nicely though...one of the cults handlers backed off entirely.
She later walked up with Sasaki present and asked me if i had ever had a run in with the IRS involving shot guns. ( a situation in my life I declined to acknowlege on TV and she gave up.... though I did discuss that at length with Sgt Carl T later who seemed to enjoy that and tales my other cluster fu*cks greatly...Carl was a hoot.... then the handlers went off to follow John Sasaki (the TV anchor and fill him in no doubt what an asshole I had been with the nice folks at the IRS....
When john drove by in his camera van on the way out he flashed me a big grin... Im sure he will enjoy his chat with Tory. I have no idea when the film will air. Maybe tonite. on the 11 pm news...the camera van had a dish they could have beamed in for the evening news. How much they clip remains to be seen. I tried to speak distinctly and naturally...but was exited to get a much said as possible..I made sure the xenu.net was showing well at all times.
I was quite surprised most of the handers (5 or 6) listened with interest to what I have to say...asking detailed questions about such as the reverse processing I told them about..etc... they actully listened but couldnt fathom that scn could do such a thing. We discusses similar stories from many other ex's.... they listened, sometimes distracting me deliberately but usually not....one thing they demonstrated, they know Im no idiot and have done a lot in life and cant be entirely wrong...the seeds might sprout one of these days...but from the look of it, these were heavy into business with other scn's so they may not just keep that going and block out things such as I was discussing with them.

SCIENTOLOGY WISE DIANETICS L RON HUBBARD
It's a world wide criminal cult started in LA. Its local "org" at 701 Montgomery St SF, Calif.. will be preying on the SF financial community under the guise of help. These people operate over 200 front groups world wide. Applied scholastics, Narconon etc. (faking the real narcanon with an 'a'. Scientology is fraud from top to bottom. Its moving fast into education and govt..)
Scientology separates families. Takes all the assets it can from its members.. and is involved up to its eyeballs in crime. With criminal convictions world wide but supported strangely by the US govt. Even though in 1982 11 of its top members were sent to prison for espionage against the US govt. stealing documents. Planting false documents etc in order to frame their critics, including federal judges and elected officials with crimes.
The clean looking people you meet at their local orgs like this one genuinely have no faintest clue about what is going on. They are victims as well. You can do some research then stop by and drop them a hint.
Scientology operates by collecting blackmailable information from its members during their lie detector monitored 'sessions' where they must 'tell all'.even if its about you, their boss, your business or neighbors. This information is used to blackmail you, your family, your boss, or for selling industrial and political espionage, a recent Greek book says as a front for CIA operations for which they convicted scientology a few years back.
This data is collected and collated in their razor wire ringed compound in Hemet Calif. Complete with armed guard tower and sniper riflemen. Over 700 staff live at this site. Local and much of state of calif govt is long since compromised. A recent escapee described the elaborate computerized systems used to direct, gather and direct this activity.
