Cool video with and interview with an Ex Scientologist. She had such pretty eyes, but the lighting was bad, ugh.

I'm assuming the woman in this video will come here to look at it so I'm going to put this link here for the resource list I've put together. Maybe she'll find something she hasn't seen before that will help her with her recovery.

The woman is Paulien Lonbard's daughter. She doesn't post on the boards.

One of the cult's guests was Mike Penn, a deacon in the Episcopalian Church. He received a Human Relations Award this year.

Interestingly, the awards ceremony was sponsored by the Mormon Church.

If you have any questions and or would like more information about Penn's “Youth Forum,” contact: Mike Penn, 714/838-3979 or pennltd@cox.net.

I don't expect her to do that but she might come here and read some of the postings.

Nice video, and two awesome families.

Best Regards

PS: Yes, direct sunlight is shit for photography / filming. Not a lot to do under the circumstances

Looks like Pauline and others had already done the job. Santa Ana only sent a Preservation society board director.

You're right.
I found a video of Pauline getting the Santa Ana city officials up to speed.
Thanks so much Pauline! This is really amazing. :flower:

How many Scientologists do you guesstimate showed up?

300-400. Most of them were bussed in staff.

Do staff members who are bussed in ever wonder why these events are heavy with staff and light on publics? If the cult is growing at even a fraction of the rate they claim, they wouldnt have to move staff around so much for these events.

No tunes! If somebody is rick rolled in the forest and there are no tunes, is it a protest:)

They now moved the article to there:
http://newsantaana.com/2012/06/05/churc ... santa-ana/

and they also made a separate report about the protest:
http://newsantaana.com/2012/06/04/a-few ... ideal-org/

BTW - despite the fact that their original article looks like it comes straight out of Scientology's publicity department, they seem to allow critical comments.

Typical cult PR. I suspect most readers in the OC don't buy it.
