Ok, he's still in Austin, still working for the law firm. Hasn't seen 13chemicals for a while, last time he did she nearly ran her car into his (not intentionally, but who can tell).
Haha. Speaking of Scientology... I hope you all have heard about what "Anonymous" is doing. I hope you are joining the protests in your cities.
The first large protest was on Feb 10, (200 people showed up in front of the local Austin Church of Scientology). The second protest is planned for next Saturday, March 15th and more people are planning to show up. Estimates for the 2/10 protest, were anywhere from 7500 - 9000 people worldwide.

This in so fantastic, guys. For years I have dreamed about the church crumbling. It looks like there is finally enough support for that to be a viable outcome.
Are you going to do your part? This fucking "religion" needs to end. Like, yesterday.
I swear to God my eyes welled up with tears when I heard how many people showed up for the first protest. This criminal organization has avoided justice for too long.
I think it is fascinating how a group (Anonymous) of various haxorz and internet geeks, actually rose up and came together for *real-life* protests out of seemingly nothing. Completely leaderless.
It all began with this video: [yt=425,350]JCbKv9yiLiQ[/yt]
Or radical Hinduism, fundamentalist Jewery, extreme Islamism, Shintoism, Bhuddism... hell even Zoroastriamism needs to be stopped!
Fun fact: the Church of Scientology was banned in Victoria, but they have somehow found a way around it and operate freely (there's an office on Russell St in the City).
I applaud Kyle on his efforts to stamp out L. Ron Hubbard's poisonous little legacy to humanity.
Supression of Freedom of Speech, that was the catalyst for the Anonymous movement against the Church of Scientology. My own personal reasons, stem from living with 5 Scientologists for a little over 5 years, and having a best friend of 15 years who is a Scientologist. I have seen things first hand that outraged me beyond comprehension.
These protests are not against the beliefs of the Scientology creed, as strange as they are and as easy as they are to ridicule, rather it is against the policies and action of the Church of Scientology. The church has a fucking Intelligence agency within it (OSA - Office of Special Affairs).
For too long critics have been silenced (sued to, lied to or defamed, threatened) by the OSA, and now it's exploded into something on a scale that OSA can no longer handle. Critics and ex-Scientologists that were once afraid to speak out against the church, are coming out of the woodwork. Jenna Miscavige (niece of the current Scientology leader, David Miscavige) and 2 other women who were members of the cult, created a fantastic website a few weeks ago for children who grew up in the organization. Check it out -> [Click, Dick]
Scientology redesigned their website as of yesterday ([Click, Dick] to be similar to Youtube. They are trying to play catch up with the technology that protesters in the Anonymous group have been using.
The Church hired a law firm in Clearwater Florida and had their attorneys send out letters to the parents of kids who they identified as being near an Anonymous gathering. They did this to try to get parents to stop their kids from protesting. Check this copy of one of these letters out:

The church also tried 3 times to file an injunction against "Anonymous" in Clearwater Florida to try and keep protesters 500ft away from the building. No go. 3 different judges smacked the injunctions down. They are becoming the laughing stock of the court room.
In LA, the Church setup an elaborate "fake" event, to hide the protesters from the view of Scientologists inside the compound. Read this article and watch the video. [Click, Dick] Fucking ridiculous how the church tries to drown out the protesters by BLARING music from a projection screen.
