AFTERWARDS

Picketing the Church of Scientology© since May 10, 1997, for Objectionable Management Practises.

A Few Thoughts...

I drove my comrades,'Artemis' and 'D'Artangnan' back into Toronto City Centre (the CNE is on the South West edge of Toronto). We talked about what we had done and laid plans for the future. They were both concerned for me because of the DA letter and a little apprehensive in retrospect about the day. This was understandable. We were winding down from an experience that we had been prepared to take a beating for if necessary and all in all it had gone well. My friends both decided to remain unnamed at this point, but both want to do it again. We have already made plans but would welcome others.

After all, the Rev and his cohorts *did* thank us more than once at the first demo for giving them free publicity, so we just *have* to come back as we offered to.

They really need our help.

I covered all the expenses on this one ( except for one parking fee.) But that is ok. It didn't amount to more that $150 all told and much of that was a one time expense.

[ I will happily exchange my receipts for the usual Prozac and Ritalin Vouchers from the Accounting Dept. at the ARSCC (WDNE). Just don't slip in the damn Gummie Bear 'Bonus'. I heard that others have lost fillings on the damn things and our ARSCC Health Plan sucks.]

We must have cost the Toronto Org Tens of Thousands in lost potential income from innocents they will not be able to deceive.

And next time I will have had the time to set up a press conference and photo ops. I know more about public relations than Reverend Butto- er, Buttnor, and Co. could dream about. And I am very good in front of the Camera. ACTRA members usually are.
