Subject: $cieno Cult Continues a Pattern of Harassment and Intimidation
Date: Thu, 16 Oct 1997 23:23:58 GMT


I got another call from one of the osa pod people on Tuesday night, the ever engaging Mary Frances (MF). She was out of the "yes sir no sir" mode of just a few nights ago and into pure harassment and intimidation. She indicated that $cientology was prepared to start attacking me on or in a number of areas unless I stopped giving financial support to their enemies. The areas of possible attack conveyed to me were:

Family,
Children,
Ex-wife,
Ex-business partners,
State and Federal taxes,
Mental Health,
Drugs,
Paying picketers.

MF informed me that the people I was listening to were "lunatics" and only another lunatic would pay any attention to them. “Surely you can see that nobody else is doing what you are doing doesn’t that say something to you?” squealed MF. Then she wants to know point blank “Are you going to stop giving money to these people or not?” You figure it out osa $cumbag!

I can see no useful reason to continue to engage in these amusing but intrusive interchanges with the scienos directly. They are clearly people who have only ill intentions towards me simply because I stand with others who refuse to tolerate the evil and vindictive tactics laid out by L. Ron Hubbard, the first in a long line of truly certifiable lunatics at or near the top of this satanic cult they have the audacity to label themselves a church. Therefore, I think I must move to a different level to continue effectively aiding people expose the scandalous behavior of the scienos and that level is away from the ARS arena. Please rest assured that I am not shuddering into silence.

I believe I am on the right course. My check writing hand still works. And, finally osa continues to bumble along: e.g., the osa goon standing in front of my neighbors house on Wednesday morning made a quick retreat to his beat-up car a few steps away on the corner of West Cedar St. and Pinckney St. when he saw me exit my house, look his way and walk towards him. He then sped the 50 ft down Pinckney and hanged a right on Charles St. (the main thoroughfares through Beacon Hill) at Starbucks, where I was heading for a coffee.

Problem was for this guy was that Charles St. is one way in the opposite direction. At rush hour in the morning it’s a bit busy -:). The horns and cars made the next 150 ft a bit of a spectacle as he then banged a left on Revere St. going to Storrow Drive. One more problem-he was again going the wrong way. But Hey! that’s the osa way. If it was not so funny it would be pathetic-another endorsement for the tech?

Three groups deserve an apology from me: firstly, those who advised me not to post here at all anymore; secondly, those whose e-mail, containing encouragement and very constructive bits of advice have not been answered; and, finally to those who said don’t engage the scienos anyway. I’m sorry but no offence is meant towards you.

I hope to see some of you in Clearwater on December 4-6th and maybe the Boston contingent sooner.

All the best,

Bob Minton
