Bahahah, these are GREAT. Mark Bunker is the man.

Check this one out:

David Miscavige thinks he's Louis de Louis, and this is his Palace of Versailles.

What a douche.

^ that's supposed to be Hubbard's mansion for when he comes back. Does DM actually live in it? I thought he lived in his own personal fortress next door, to the right of it.

I think you're right:

It's bigger than LRH's pad, lol!

This is just SO GOOD. I love Mark Bunker. I am so excited about this movie. I think it's going to be a big deal.

Also, it's interesting that they got rid of the running circle with the tree. I think they wanted to clean up the signs of cultiness.

I think it used to be in the big green area in the upper right part of this photo:

Very green for this semi-desert region.
I guess when they are not sprinkling protesters, they are watering non-native grasses that very few people will ever see.

( I get just as mad when I see golf courses in desert areas as well in places that rely on water that has much better places to be.)

But where the hell are the people!? :shock:

Seems nobody is home today. :mrgreen:

@I'mglib

I think the circle with the palm tree is right behind where the photo stops, I think from the pictures we can't tell if it's still there:

Mark Bunker is one of the true heroes of our time, I can't wait to see the film!

Edit: I checked it again, and I think you're right, the sand/gravel surface would have to be visible in the top right corner if the image. So it does looks like it's gone indeed. My mistake.

The running circle was originally visible from the road and I think we have had some protest pics not that long ago (and/or some drive-by video from Anonorange) confirming its recent demise.
Critics and protesters are clearly at cause

The running circle is still shown in Google Earth and Google Maps.
Open either one and enter these coordinates in in the search box.

Best shots of Gold Base from on high since Nathan Baca extended his video camera from KESQ-TV Palm Springs around. But this is high-res! Hubba hubba. Will enjoy adding a Xenutv aerial gallery to my website http://www.angrygaypope.com of gold base images with links/watermarks to xenutv.

I don't see any circular running track. It could still be there.

It may not still be there. Google Earth's pictures are not necessarily right up to date.

Professor Obvious speaking here, but COULD THIS PLACE LOOK MORE LIKE A CULT?!

Honestly! We get asked pretty regularly during raids, "So why do you call Scientology a cult?"

I don't even need to say anything. Just bust out this picture.

Thank you to Mark and to Sponge for posting!

Great pictures!

Did folks scurry undercover when they heard the helicopter flying overhead? Is there an air raid drill?

Is it just me, or did anyone else notice the blue-roofed buildings and long low white one all look like LEGOs?
