If you know anyone with MS,you should have compassion for Uwe,even if he did do some asshole things as sec chief.11 years! People are incarcerated for worse crimes for less time.Whatever Uwe did,for fuck sakes,he well and truly paid for it.He was bedridden.He couldn’t go to the toilet by himself.And he was supposed to work his way out??

Scientologists may say he ‘pulled it in’ but real people with compassion don’t wish that sort of suffering on their worst enemy.We should be better than that.

Lisa Mc Pherson’s death got a lot of press,but I think this is equally heinous.We should get the press to notice this one.

If Scientology had any brains they would reform themselves into (mostly) innocuous new agey movement/scam like Est or The Secret (dumb.but their harm potential is a LOT less)and STILL make shitloads of money without hurting people,but no,they’re not content until they make slaves of their followers.What other church has a fricken death roll of HUNDREDS of poor souls?Disgusting.

At least this brings the practice out more publicly. That is ultimately a good thing.

I’m gonna have to work on coming up with some sympathy for Uwe. How many other people did he help consign to a similar fate?

Active members of Anonymous — those that attend the protests and do the background legwork otherwise — are true heroes. What I do here is much (much!) less. Yes, I have received a few threats, but I haven’t been “name fagged” yet. Despite my precautions, it’s may just be a matter of time before that happens, but I do intend to continue speaking out if and when that occurs. Hold me to that, mates.

I ran into a very well dressed, but masked, Anonymus protester on Hollywood Boulevard recently and had a great conversation with him about why they fight the Power. Respect.
