Anonymous of DC Press Release

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

June 28, 2008

WASHINGTON - Worldwide, monthly pickets by the group called Anonymous protesting the Church of Scientology continue in July. Anonymous of DC will play its part. The monthly protests started in February 2008 and will continue for the foreseeable future.

The July 12th protest will focus on The Church of Scientology's Office of Special Affairs (OSA), the church's covert police force responsible for intimidating its critics. OSA's documented history of aggressive harassment is called "Fair Game". It is this church policy that has driven many protesters to protect their identities by wearing a mask and using the group name Anonymous Under Fair Game, OSA, directed by Church leadership, can harass all critics, including ex-members, journalists and the public, using inappropriate legal and physical intimidation.

Although Scientology claims that its aggressive response to Anonymous is justified by alleged criminal activities, the FBI recently told national media that it has no evidence that Anonymous is engaged in illegal activities.

Anonymous' membership is in the tens of thousands, with monthly protests drawing an average 10,000 protesters in over 100 cities worldwide. There are over 600 members in the Washington DC area. The protest on July 12 will take place in front of the Founding Church of Scientology at 1701 20th St NW beginning 11:00 am The public is welcome.

Also in July, Washington will host Anonymous' first international protest on the National Mall on July 19. Attendance is confirmed from as far away as Australia and Germany. The public is welcome to attend and learn more; Anonymous combines its protests with a joyful celebration of free speech.

Munich Anon is full of balls and win. Both Colorado and Clearwater Anons salute your efforts to kick the fascist cult of scientology out of Germany once and for all.

Best promo evar! See you guise on Saturday for the march! FYI - AnonPawnBeGone is a member of Scientology's OSA and spams the same link over and over on numerous Anonymous YouTube pages. Please feel free to view the link, but keep in mind that OSA has a well documented history of propaganda and "dead agenting".
