April 18, 1998 - Gregg Hagglund
Well I have to say that the other members of the Picket
have done a fine job of describing the day so I won't go
into too much detail. However I would like to summarise
the events, numbers and developments.
I would like to say that we don't care what the Rules for
public demonstrations are, as they are Rules that we will
follow even if changed on the fly. However, I will not
surrender my right to organise and/or Picket Peacefully as
often as I damn well please to the whim of any Official, no
matter how that Official is mislead or lied to by the Co$. I
simply can not be intimidated in this manner because I
refuse to get flustered. I will stand by my rights and call for
a superior official who has access to the pertinent law and
my lawyers phone number and I will use the law to win.
Everytime.
In short, today we were at total cause again over the
dwindling Toronto Org. Despite Co$ attempts to either
manipulate the situation or provoke an incident on camera
they failed miserably to stop a highly successful and
peacefully conducted information demonstration.
We ran out of flyers, hawking most of them under my
constant cry of: "Criminal Conviction of Scientology in
Canada! Banned In Greece! Extra! Extra! Read all about it!
Galactic Overlord Hidden by Scientology!" etc. [I had a ball!]
As mentioned we were visited by Lord Xenu who was giving
out OT3, verbatim! I did hear more than one passerby ask
Org staff if the OT3 on Lord Xenu's flyer was part of
Scientology and the staff denied this publicly. ( So I guess
it is perfectly alright to hand the OT3 verbatim out, publicly,
at the Org as how can one violate Co$ Copyrights as
claimed by Co$ Legal Weasels when the Co$ itself publicly
denies the OT3 is part of Co$ teachings?)
I admit there were some communication problems with the
local Police. Problems exacerbated by Co$ misinformation
and mischief. Once the misinformation and mischievious
conduct was understood by the local on site Constabulary
the Co$ lost all sympathy from them and alienated them as
much as one can these impartial enforcers of the WogLaws
of Toronto and Canada.
Our communcations problem was dealt with, on-site, in
short order and never really disrupted the Picket to any
extent.
I have today (Monday April 20th) successfully liased with
the MTPD and sorted several bureaucratic snafus out and
have assured the past accord and cooperation of the MTPD
will continue in the future.
Yes, it is true, my very presence over Toronto Org. Even if
I stop on the sidew of the Org. and drink a Starbucks coffee
their literature and watching their hilarious video, I can
cause absolute panic amongst the staff. A mere Wog,
armed with only the Truth on a Yellow Flyer and a good
mocca java!
What a pathetic organisation the Toronto Org is. A few will
need help when it finally collapses. And I will be there with
compassionate aid if it is wanted. It will be the charitable
thing to do.
