There is a LOT to see.  Confessions of physical abuse from Marty Rathbun, Mike Rinder, and more.  More details to come about Lisa McPherson, the IRS.  The CoS is FLIPPING THEIR SHIT.  There is a letter from David Miscavige himself, they flew in lawyers and PR people to talk to the paper, they also released "confessionals" to the St Pete Times as damning evidence- making themselves look even worse in the process.  Confidential my ass.

Funniest part other than general sci-rage is Tommy Davis yelling BBC style in his audio interview.

Part 2 is up! http://www.tampabay.com/news/article1012234.ece
The only way this really could be better is if this hit larger media outlet.  Forward this around to everyone you know.

Yes, Ends.

As it has been explained to me by our local beat cops, the last three days have been seriously getting on their nerves.  They have in turn responded by getting on the nerves of the local beat cops, who are tired of it.  And, if I get arrested for some bullshit charges, anyone else with me is also most likely to get arrested for the same bullshit charges.  Also, if someone else does something stupid, I'd probably get taken in for it too.  So that does it for me, I'm not attending or supporting any raids for a while, definately not for the next 4 days or more.  For the sake of keeping it simple and not having myself or anyone next to me wind up as the next asshole situation room on WWP, I'm calling it off.  Yes, they can probably mark it off as a successful handling, and no I don't like it either.  Too bad, so sad.  I was actually looking forward to waking up tomorrow.

So, why is it win?  Well, because in 3 full days, including today we learned a lot of things.

First of all, in the whole time I was there I did not notice a single stress test team leave the building with their equipment.  This means one of two things:
 1) They did not want to send out any more staff to go and do the usual illegal book selling shlick while protesters are visible outside, so that the tables wouldn't get protested as well.
 2) They do not have enough public staff left in the org to regularly sell their books.

This explains why we haven't been able to find the tables lately - they basically don't exist anymore.  This doesn't mean that you won't see Gary Epstein or whatever other OT shmuck they can dig up to do a table once in a while, but to do them as often and as hard as they used to is now basically impossible.  I would think that the more likely explaination for this lack of activity is the second one, because that would also explain why some staff in that org are doing 3 or 4 different staff jobs at once.  At this...

NATE will be at the org this week (Tuesday-FridayMonday) from 8AM to 8PM 10PM every day. Come whenever.
