    Anon protests Scientology worldwide

    I don't see any thread about this, so here:

    Basically, earlier today a worldwide protest against the Church of Scientology occured. Thousands worldwide were encouraged to show up at their nearest Scientology church with signs and such to protest against the "religion".

    Most of this was started and continued by /b/ and anon in general. IMO it's pretty fricken amazing that so many people went to these things.

    Video footage of a lot of that is here:

    A couple of my friends were in Boston at the time, they ALMOST went but didn't out of laziness...ah well.

      Yeah, I saw this on digg. Since when does anon show up to real life protests? I was sort of expecting this to go the way of Hal Turner.

          The religious group countered in a statement late yesterday that "'Anonymous' is perpetrating religious hate crimes against Churches of Scientology and individual Scientologists for no reason other than religious bigotry." It added: "'Anonymous' claims of altruistic purposes are no different than those heard from any terrorist or hate group."

                  If Anonymous isn't careful, they are going to turn the entire group of nut jobs into an entire group of martyrs.

                      Remember the time when anon wanted to remain anonymous? We used to shun publicity. Now its nothing but tons of attention seeking retarded newfags.

                                      What Anon stands for (internet terrorism and the like) is wrong, but I still find it funny that they're taking on one of today's more controversial things: religion, and Scientology at that.
                                      Most people hate Anon, and most people hate the Scientologists.
                                      I wonder which group people hate more?

                                          No Poke; this is because 4chan realised they are large in number and hold great influence over the internet and realise they have a voice.

                                          This is a good thing.

                                              What Anon is or is not doesn't concern me.

                                              They're standing for freedom of speech (and more) this time, and I have to say, it's encouraging to see that from people.

                                                  I like how scientology's usual tactics get completely dismantled when confronted with large numbers of protesters. Hilarious seeing them hide inside unable to defend themselves, so now they're just playing the victim. Hopefully they'll be more humble with their "fair game" policy after this.

                                                      Exactly... I thought this same thing.
                                                      Im glad this is happening before it becomes even MORE infectious... AKA when the number of people involved with the religion surpasses the number of people willing to stand up to them.
