March 15: Anonymous Global Statement to CoS, Columbus OH

September 9, 2009 - 1:30 am

As recorded across the street from the Columbus OH Church of Scientology. Thanks to all the central Ohio Anons who participated! See you next month. My voice survived this just fine, thanks.

Today - the Ides of March - is the day Julius Caesar was betrayed by those he trusted.

Today we gather together as Anonymous to call attention to another betrayal of trust - that of the Church of Scientology upon its followers.

Since its inception, Scientology has traded in false hopes and promises, betrayed the trust of its members, taken their money, their rights, and at times their very lives.

The Church has - and continues - to lie to them and the world.

The Church betrays its members when secrets harvested from spiritual counselling are used against them as blackmail and evidence in court.

The Church betrays its members when they demand members disconnect from family and friends who question the church.

The Church betrays its members when they discourage the taking of prescribed psychiatric medications, a practice which has led to a number of shocking murders and suicides.

In the month since our first worldwide protest, there is a new public consciousness about the crimes of the Church!

We have seen an unprecedented flood of Scientologists join with us across the world to testify about these abuses.

To the Scientologists who fear us: You have nothing to fear from our peaceful protests. We are here because we CARE about you. We demonstrate only against the abuses of the Church management and we stand by your individual freedom of religion.

We urge you, Scientologists, to re-examine the facts you have been told.

How is your money spent?

Why does your leader, David Miscavige, demand so much of it?
WE have our OWN Miscavige — Jenna Miscavige Hill, David’s niece, who stands with us today.

Your anti-psychiatry front group, the Citizens’ Commission on Human Rights, is led by Bruce Wiseman.
WE also have our own Wiseman — his daughter Kendra Wiseman.

They have joined the voices of other ex-Scientologists whose stories of abuses have been lone voices in the wilderness for too long.

We Anonymous, wait for the day when, like the Berlin Wall, the wall of silence around the LIES of the Church of Scientology will fall.

Like the East German government of the past, the Church of Scientology has its own secret service to spy on its own members and outside critics.

It encourages its own members to betray others for being “out ethics”.

It blackmails members.

It commits atrocities through the operation of church prisons and slave camps, under the guise of the “Rehabilitation Project Force.”

Members of the Sea Org have been forced into accepting abortions against their wishes.

“Upstat”, privileged members have abused women and children with impunity.

And the Church has attacked its enemies with frivolous lawsuits, harassment, kidnappings, and countless suspicious deaths.

This world holds no place for organized crime perpetrated on this scale.

Last month ten thousand people demonstrated in one hundred and seven cities across the world.

They came together to make the first breach in the wall of silence.

Today we are on the streets again, our numbers ever-increasing - and we will come again in April
- in May - in June - and July.

We will come until that wall of silence is RUBBLE!

We are Anonymous. We are legion. Expect us!

    There was a bullhorn on hand, but apparently it’s illegal to use one during a stationary protest. I could be completely wrong, but it’s a moot point because it wasn’t noticed until the speech was delivered.

    The big thanks go to the folks over at the Enturb forums who not only put their heads together and drafted the speech, but also those who volunteered and translated it into (at last count) NINE LANGUAGES so that it might be read around the world.
