I don't have the money to afford a lawyer to be there and we've been unable to raise the funds for one with other projects which have been going on. If anybody would like to help you can donate a few dollars, anonymously, to donations@religionisfree dot org and tell us what you'd like us to use the donation for.

Police Officers need to take classes on Public Speaking

I applaud the effort you go to to show scientologists that you are an organisation of protestors who are not yahoos, you are highly intelligent and respectful of the law. Never have you shown in these videos that you are out to cause physical harm to anyone, its all about bring the truth to light. If the church of Scientology was smart they would invite you in with your camera and talk to you but they know that they are manipulating people for one thing MONEY! bravo.

Fewer cops die in the line-of-duty in 2011 than did, per capita, in any year of the 1920's. The corporate media would have us believe otherwise. Cops are tax collectors. Their allegiances are to one another as the propaganda of police fraternities stresses the "us against them" mindset. Note the corporate media's fondness for referring to Americans as civilians, rather than citizens. Indeed, we are man-handled as civilian combatants. Soon hoods will be placed over our heads as S.O.P.

@IconsOfTeleplay Not sure, but they are still in the business of saving people, not hurting them like police. And actually police have to often call the fire department or EMT to come clean up their victims. I've also seen videos of cops harassing and assaulting firefighters and EMTs.

@1775novten : I wonder if there's a fraternity for firemen, or fire fighters in NEWSPEAK.

[1775novten]

@IconsOfTeleplay I still have faith in firemen, but that's about it.

[IconsOfTeleplay]

@1775novten : The public servant is extinct. 

[1775novten]

@IconsOfTeleplay Yes, their Union is a huge part of the problem, but they are also in cahoots with the corrupt city officials. At the end of the day it's all about revenue collection and corporate interest protection.

[IconsOfTeleplay]

@1775novten : The root problem is the Fraternal Order of Police.

[1775novten]

@IconsOfTeleplay haha, nice! My favorite is when you tell a cop that you are aware of your rights and the law and then he replies with "oh, now we have a lawyer on our hands". No officer, I just took the time to read the law - you should try it some time, it would make your job a lot easier.

@1775novten : In the same way that Congressmen support 1,000-page bills that they haven't read.
