- springhell, on 02/11/2008, -3/+125I love how she says its "cowardly" that the protesters hid behind disguises. It's not like the Church attacks, stalks, and ruins the lives of people that speak out against them or anything.
- Reziarfg, on 02/11/2008, -0/+84Aww man, and did it have to resize my browser?

http://youtube.com/watch?v=BN7M9iChi5U - hadiz, on 02/11/2008, -4/+64I live in Clearwater, and for those that don't know I believe it is officially the scientology capital of the world. They have a huge say in what goes on downtown, and own probably 90% of the businesses down there.
- ryanonfire, on 02/11/2008, -15/+72Digg this up, don't let scientology bury it. If they do report it it at: abuse@digg.com
- 3F05Q, on 02/11/2008, -2/+59I think you're missing it entirely. The point of all this crap is that Scientology is sucking people in and stripping them financially... and even killing people in solitary confinement. Take all the Xenu stuff out, and you'd still have a money-racket.
- mastic, on 02/11/2008, -1/+46Xenu is not a planet
- jakdracula, on 02/11/2008, -1/+42"raid" means something different to me... However: go anonymous!
- inactive, on 02/11/2008, -5/+38Video wasnt starting, had to pause then move scroller a bit, works now
- truspect0r, on 02/11/2008, -4/+37They're not protesting their beliefs noob.
Btw, $cientology's a cult not a religion. - Drkgodess, on 02/11/2008, -3/+291. It's not a religion, it's criminal organization that charges it's followers in order for them to get "clear".
2. Anonymous isn't against the belief systems of the people, rather the corrupt organization behind scientology.
3. Other religions don't charge over $300,000.00 for salvation, hence anon has no problem with them. - springhell, on 02/11/2008, -6/+30Good job generalizing extremist Muslims with all other Islamic variations of faith.
- zomgz, on 02/11/2008, -2/+21no.. but they may have been involved with the manufacturing of lead paint that u digested as a child leading to ur retardation.
kthx - kaskarn, on 02/11/2008, -5/+23 Well I for one welcome you to a process called democracy, which can indeed leave up to 50% of the people unhappy. Guess what, it's not all about you.
Regards - mbrolutti, on 02/11/2008, -4/+20Yes you are.
- detonate, on 02/11/2008, -2/+18Scientology plant alert. Scientologists have been spamming the Internet trying to equate our protests with intolerance of all religions...
- Plotinus, on 02/11/2008, -0/+15@queenstarsha
No. Scientology is a business masquerading as a religion. Anonymous have specifically stated they do not have an issue with the belief system. This is a protest against their behaviour, their litigious nature and the tactics they use against critics, it is not an attack on their beliefs (heck I think anyone who believes in sky fairies is certifiable, but that's their own personal choice). I suggest you read up on their activities. - inactive, on 02/11/2008, -0/+15Clearwater, Florida is where scientology HQ is located. It's kind of a ballsy move to do this being that scientology basically has half the police force there on the payroll.
- springhell, on 02/11/2008, -3/+17Jews don't charge money for salvation... that's the difference.
- inactive, on 02/11/2008, -3/+17IT'S NOT ABOUT THE ***** BELIEFS! I know you read that because I made it important by putting it in capital letters.
- variable, on 02/11/2008, -1/+14The video is on YouTube: http://youtube.com/watch?v=BN7M9iChi5U
- notque, on 02/11/2008, -6/+19Solidarity!
- spyrochaete, on 02/11/2008, -2/+15In my city of Toronto over 50 people took part in the Anonymous raid. It was -35 celcius with windchill yesterday. Doesn't sound like a lot of lulz to me. The opponents of Scientology are serious.
http://torontoist.com/2008/02/scientology_pro.php - the6thReplicant, on 02/11/2008, -1/+13It's beginning to look like it. Anyone that starts off with "I'm not a Scientologist but.." and anyone who can't read the legitimate claims against Scientology, but instead making it a first amendment issue.
Nice FUD guys but it's not 9/11 anymore, the art of subtle arguments are back!! - andrew1111, on 02/11/2008, -1/+13BTW sorry about the temporary-ish account, if anyone noticed. I kinda would rather not have Scientology know that I've been in their organization.
- mikehill33, on 02/11/2008, -2/+14"Ron is Gone, the Con Lives On" - LOL.
- K0NY, on 02/11/2008, -0/+12One angle I'm not seeing addressed is that The "Church" of Scientology discriminates against poor people. If you don't have the money for constant auditing, you become the scum of the Earth within the Scientology infrastructure. Religions offer salvation and happiness in exchange for living by a certain set of principles while Scientology offers them for monetary compensation. The benefits and ultimate rewards of living your life according to any belief system are debatable. "Bang for your buck" in Scientology is not. Former members of Scientology, after 30 years, will tell you that the time and money spent was largely wasted and the promised resolution of problems was never delivered.
- andrew1111, on 02/11/2008, -2/+14Yes, Scientology's "Flag", their land headquarters, are in Clearwater (you can see the tall-ish sand-colored building in the background of this video.) Of course it is the location where many of their evil-doings take place... certainly more than anyone knows about. I head the "pleasure" of staying at Flag on a few occasions as a child, and I would not recommend it as a vacation destination (Clearwater itself is ok, but stay away from Flag). :)
- NinjasR2Cool, on 02/11/2008, -8/+19This is great the more mainstream media coverage the better. Keep up the great work everyone!
LOL @ Xenu - Midtowner, on 02/11/2008, -1/+12Anon hasn't killed anyone. Scientology has.
Anon hasn't committed fraud and blackmail in order to become tax exempt. Scientology has.
Anon is not a dangerous, murdering, slandering cult. Scientology is. - accessviolation, on 02/11/2008, -0/+10No. And you should be slapped in the face with a wet fish.
- diadem2, on 02/11/2008, -0/+10Anyone else notice that this press coverage is much more likely to garner sympathy for the CoS than anonymous?
- mbrolutti, on 02/11/2008, -2/+12Yeah well theres that, and then theres the fact that they destroy families and kill people.
- Amadeus2490, on 02/11/2008, -0/+10Thetan-flavored Kool-Aid?
- nemesiscw, on 02/11/2008, -2/+11Yeah, he's missing the point. They don't care about the whole story. Let them believe whatever they want to believe, we don't care. The point is that the people running the cult are killing off people, extorting people, blackmailing people, and numerous other crimes.
- milliamp, on 02/11/2008, -0/+9MIRROR: http://youtube.com/watch?v=BN7M9iChi5U
- Memitim, on 02/11/2008, -0/+9If there have to be groups of people screwing around, I'd much rather that they be doing so drawing attention to a dangerous organization like Scientology rather than at a ball game, a bar, or some other useless activity. Christ, you make it sound like we need to optimize every activity we do regardless of what we want to do, which seems doubly stupid seeing as we are posting on Digg rather than composing letters to our editors, writing our Congressmen, or preparing public speeches.
- 10wattmindtrip, on 02/11/2008, -7/+16You're an idiot.
- variable, on 02/11/2008, -0/+9http://youtube.com/watch?v=BN7M9iChi5U
- badjoke, on 02/11/2008, -2/+10They aren't persecuting their right to believe or even mocking their beliefs, only fighting the criminality of the organization.
- elvenseven, on 02/11/2008, -1/+9If Islam had an organization, a corporation and was the one commanding the terrorist to blow people up of course people would protest. You can't generalize the entire religion. You are doing what the MSM and the warmongers want you to, hate the Muslims, and vote them.
- inactive, on 02/11/2008, -1/+9Florida Protest:
http://youtube.com/watch?v=BN7M9iChi5U - 80hd, on 02/11/2008, -0/+8Yeah thanks baynews9. I wanted my browser 1/4 the size of my screen.
- ninja0, on 02/11/2008, -15/+23DUGG!
Scifags should get a life!... even though we are the ones protesting in our spare time... - badjoke, on 02/11/2008, -2/+9Anon doesn't fight against their beliefs, just their criminal practices. Who are you to tell someone what to believe or not? If you crusade against Scientology's beliefs, you have to mark up all the other religions as well which have premises just as preposterous.
- VSKBadCRC, on 02/11/2008, -1/+8Anyone have an alternate link to this video? It freezes less than half way through the video.
- Amadeus2490, on 02/11/2008, -2/+9Raid 0 array?
Raid bugspray?
Police Raid?
When it raids it poors?
Don't raid on my parade?
I raided Joe Momma?
Womb Raider: The Last Semination? - Devdan, on 02/11/2008, -1/+8I live near there and the Scientology headquarters is huge in Clearwater.
- OhhWell, on 02/11/2008, -3/+9Just dugg you down for your condescending tone. That better?
- badjoke, on 02/11/2008, -2/+8Web 3.0, here we come.
