Clearwater Picket - August 19, 2000

Hans Bschorr/Mary DeMoss

Hans tells me that he read my report about our encounter of the day before. Mary DeMoss denies me membership in the Foundation for Religious Tolerance.

 

"Bub" Leans into my Camera

A Scientologist I've nicknamed "Bub" presses his head into my camera lens.   This guy reminded me of Bub, the 'friendly" zombie in George Romero's film "Day of the Dead."

 

In footage from Jeff Jacobsen's camera, you can see me gesture for the Clearwater Police to come over.  When they did not come over, I went over to them as they stood on the corner. Ik asked if they could please just tell the Scientologists not to touch us or our cameras.

Sgt. Quinlan responded, "I watched the whole thing.  You were blocking his passage on the sidewalk."  As you can see from the video footage, the sidewalk was completely unblocked.

Also, I mention a phrase to Bub which was discovered on the July 26th picket video:

 

Clip from July 26th Picket

This clip of "Bub" is from the picket of July 26th.  In it Bub shoves Bob Minton...and then gets advice on how to do it properly.  

Another Scientologist makes very clear what Scientology's aim is when they do this "bull-baiting."  They are trying to provoke us into creating an incident.  Listen as Bub is advised to "let them go to you."
