Scientology Under Attack!

Filed under: Tom Cruise

aa77457139.jpg

Somebody is trying to spook the kooks!

Mysterious envelopes containing apparently harmless powder were sent to Church of Scientology locations in the Los Angeles and Orange County areas on Wednesday, prompting street closings and evacuations.

In total, 19 "church" locations were targeted, and authorities are trying to determine who sent them.

Glendale police shut down a street for two hours and Tustin authorities evacuated 60 people from buildings as hazardous materials teams were called in.

Initial tests indicated the powder was harmless.

We may not like Scientology, but don't be doing stupid shit like this! It affects us all.

      OK Stupids - don't add fuel to the Zenu fire. They will just get more freaky and militant and blame the fact that envelopes of harmless powder sent from SP's are rocking their foundations and require Tom and his minions to act up to save the church and the world.

      It is probably from the weird group. (who wrote that threatening public statement a week ago)

      Why can't people just chill the fuck out and let people believe and think whatever the hell they want? If they think the mothership or Jesus is coming to save us all, then let them alone. It's a free country last time I checked….

      Don't let them fool you Perez. Scientology's OSA (Office of Speical Affairs - google it) sent them to the "churches" themselves. This is to then point to all those people picketing on Feb 10th and call them "terrorist".

      Check out some of the Black OPS scientology has run in the past before: Operation Snow White (when they broke in to Federal Agencies) and Operation Freakout.

      This is ridiculous. I am not a scientologist, but we live in a country where people have the freedom of religion. That's one of the reasons I am thankful I live in America instead of the Middle East - I don't want to have to wake up every morning in fear that someone is going to attack me.

      If you are scared of the mean white powder, you should be put 6 feet under, just for being a stupid propaganda eating moron.
      Who the F can really think it would affect us all if some script kiddies sent baby powder to the cult? How does it affect us all? Because YOU live in fear of the big invisible TERROR?!?!? Wake the F up and stop putting fear on everybodys head, open up your mind, THINK. Does it really scare you to be scared? Then you are a pussy ass moron and should live under Bush's terror kindom forever…

      Peace

      Re: That Gu – Yup, I agree. They sent it to themselves. They've always done the victim bit while really being the victimizers. There hasn't been one incident where the truth didn't come out and prove who really was behind the chaos.

      Scientology reminds me of the story of the kid who kills his parents and then complains he is an orphan.

      Recently a group of buildings in California associated with the "Church" of Scientology claimed to have recieved envelopes in the mail that contained a "mysterious, white powdery substance". The powder was found to be harmless and no people exposed to it suffered any damage to their health. However, the implications behind such a report may cause people to believe that Anonymous is "responsible" for this attack on the Church.
      Anonymous does not work like most organizations you have come across before, and therefore your common understanding of "responsibility" cannot logically be applied to us. Anonymous should not be thought of as a single entity, with a focus on a single path to a single goal - there is no hierarchy; there are no order-givers or order-takers. Rather, we work as individuals or as small groups, getting our ideas about what to do by communicating with each other.

      However, be assured that the vast majority of us have not attempted to organize any actions which will cause physical or mental damage to any persons. This is indeed self-evident, if you will look past the distortions of the media - because out of the many (estimate: hundreds of) thousands of us participating in this project, the media has only managed to produce ONE report of such an action.

      The church sent the letters to themselves. They've done things like this before and they'll do it again.

      i wouldn't be surprised if they sent them to themselves just for the publicity……and to look like good in the public eye
