Subject SF protest 9 March UPDATE From grady@netcom.com (Grady Ward) Date Fri, 8 Mar 1996 01:25:51 GMT Newsgroups alt.religion.scientology, alt.activism, comp.org.eff.talk, alt.censorship Message-ID ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Participate in the World-wide demonstration against the criminal cult of scientology on Saturday, March 9, 1996! San Francisco update: The San Francisco Scientology Org is at 83 McAllister St. The closest major intersection is 7th and Market St., San Francisco, just east of the Civic Center BART stop. The block the SF Org is on is basically a trapezoid with the Org entrance embedded on the shortest side (northern) while the longest side on the opposite side is part of Market St. The SF Org has their own 800 number in case you need last minute directions: 1 800 801 3944. Weather looks good; NOAA forecast as of 7 March is partly cloudy with chance of showers. A light water resistant jacket ought to suffice. Temperatures will likely be mild in the high 50's and 60's F. The nominal time for the demonstration is from 12 noon to 2 pm. I will probably be there earlier and leave later, but it depends upon the entertainment factors of enturbulating the cult group that today the BBC reported the German government considers a threat to their national security. My purpose in being there is both entertainment and to give notice to the criminal cult that I will not stand their interference with free speech on the Internet. Whether you want to drop by to hold a picket, pass out pamphlets, videotape, snap pictures, teach OT levels as per the Fishman Affidavit, talk to protesters or Org members, Xenu mime, "clear" your bowels, or whatever, for any length of time, just stop by and say "Hi" from one meat body to another. I'm 6' 2" 250lb. 40's With balding light brown hair, fair complexion, black and gold wire rim glasses, likely with a white lawn bowling hat and brown backpack. I'll be the one with the persecutory smirk and lots of high-tech toys such as UFH/VHF radios, video equipment and digital cameras, etc. However I never carry anything I don't have a license or permit for and whatever training is required to use it properly. I would sincerely appreciate it if whoever attends the SF protest also scrupulously obeys the law, regardless of the scientology provocation's such as phoney "counter demonstrations", stealing your pamphlets, verbal abuse and outright physical confrontation. However I am NOT an "organizer" for this event, so you do as you wish. After the event I intend to upload the digital photographs during the evening of the 9th to my web page at http://www.humboldt1.com/~gw/index.html. I also intend on making a short documentary video of the event as it happens. Sometimes those squat lady sea orgers are a riot! As a special bonus for SF protesters I've heard that the copyright terrorists behind SCAMIZDAT will be willing to sign PGP keys for those able to write down their key fingerprint and some reasonable evidence as to their name attached to the key. While I cannot say whether this rumor is true, obtaining the PGP signature of SCAMIZDAT is a rare opportunity to collect an *official certification* of your suppressiveness toward the criminal cult. Radio amateurs: event frequencies for this demonstration will be 146.54 MHz VHF, PL 100.0 and 446.02 Mhz UHF, PL 100.0. I'd like at least a couple of other hams attend with their HTs in order to gather intelligence on parts of the SF Org not visible from McAllister St. 73 KO6EB.
