COMMENTS NEEDED Boston Foundation rethinking grant - Anonymous is mentioned!!

Mods, please move this post if it's in the wrong place. I know we have a thread about what was going on "pre-Anonymous" involvement, but I wanted a separate thread at least for now to show - another potential win!

Nice zingers!!

Anyone want to bet that "anonymous" is a swear word around Renna?
There's just something so satisfying about pissing in his cornflakes.

NOT ONLY THAT my friend
i'll bet we agree
they need to pay taxes or make fair-share donations to the local school districts
they get all those public services (ie police protection, fire protection, roads etc)
and they DO NOT PAY for it
(i feel almost the same about the Catholics in terms of taxes, and am now wondering if they own yankee stadium, but that is a topic for another day)

when i see all the massive real estate the Scientologists own in hollywood
millions and millions and millions of dollars--maybe billions, i do not know, but it is a LOT
and then see the condition of the neighborhood schools around
their digs it literally makes me sick
they STEAL FROM public schools
Californians believe in public education.

(readers: most of hollywood is pretty scrappy; not fancy, hard-working people, kids that deserve a decent education--i'm talking teachers paying for supplies and all that. not rich, not fancy. not white. celebrity center hood is pretty nice and more stable in terms of longer-term residents, except of course the OBVIOUS scientology-logoed apts adjacent to the castle.)

cheaters.
thieves.

I'm pretty sure if they owned it, they would be able to drive on the grass:

Please keep the Popemobile off the Yankee Stadium grass
Please keep the Popemobile off the Yankee Stadium grass - Big League Stew - MLB - Yahoo! Sports

(sorry, timing was too perfect to resist).

Re: COMMENTS NEEDED Boston Foundation rethinking grant - Anonymous is mentioned!!

I just fired off this email the foundation that gave the grant.

Quote:
Dear Mr/Mrs,

I am writing this e-mail on behalf of the protest group Anonymous. We are aware of the grant for the pilot of the Applied Scholastics school and are concerned about this.

A website which offers strong arguments why Applied Scholastics' "study technology" is actually covert instruction in the Scientology religion is Scientology v. Education - The Scam of "Study Technology". Alternatively, you could watch A Classroom Full O’ Crazy THE WOG BLOG from XENU TV or contact Dave Touretzky, a Research Professor at Carnegie Mellon University at dst@cs.cmu.edu.

With regards to Scientology itself, Anonymous claims widespread abuse occurs in the 'Church'. I fully realize that this is a long way of from the beautiful facade they are trying to show to the world and I would not be able to word the trutch in a few sentences. However, I read these words yesterday of an ex-scientologist who recently spoke out against Scientology and I think it conveys the sinister thruth of Scientology rather well. It is a part of a letter to high-ranking Scientologist Pat Harney.

Quote:
As a recently blown ex-Scientologist who is now out and declared, I am appalled most noteably at the church's lies at any cost all in the name of PR Flaps.

I've been there, I've seen the abuse. I've seen forced abortions. These women have their baby taken from them, and within hours they are expected back on post, no compassion, no sympathy, no humanity, NOT EVEN ANY MONEY TO BUY NAPKINS!!!!!!

I've seen families torn apart for many many years.

I've seen abuse, neglect and exploitation of children. I've seen horrendous crimes comitted all in the name of KSW.

When my friends and family inside blow, we're taking you bastards down Pat. You've deprived my son of a mother, my husband of a wife, and my mother of a daughter for far too long. My father, brother and cousin have all died since i've been inside, you took them away from me too. Yes I entered and stayed voluntarily, but I was brainwashed, I was fed lies and BS to keep me there. I used to be a free thinker. The cult robbed me of my free thought, my free speech and my basic human rights.
As I hope you will understand, we strongly feel that $20.000 could be used in many better ways than to further this danger to the publics wellbeing. We hope that you will reconsider your grant.

Kind regards,
Anonymous

Re: COMMENTS NEEDED Boston Foundation rethinking grant - Anonymous is mentioned!!

Oh...and I promised the journalist who is writing these pieces his own meme if he does an interview with Jason Beghe :-).

Edit: I also fired off an email similar to the one above to the city counseller mentioned in the article.
