We had 4 people turn out to raid on the windy, but pleasant, Wellington afternoon of August 9th. We were delighted to have the presence of a leet Enturbulator from Auckland as a special guest to our capital city protest against the maggot cult of Scientology.
We handed out tonnes of flyers and there was a really good vibe coming from the passers by. It was a really good day overall, and I think everyone who went deserves a round of applause.
We then all went off for a hot drink together outside of the blustery cold, and then a few of us stayed on for a feed. Good food, Good people, Good times. See you all next Saturday!
A couple of pics should be coming in soon, so check back here!
A 4 person turnout arrived at the Grafton. All arrived just after 7pm. It was freezing cold, windy with on and off rain but us 1337kr3w anons and tripfags are tough as nails.
We were greeted by Mike Ferriss jumping out of a car with camera in hand at about 7:10pm. Didn’t look like there were any Scientologists in the actual Grafton building. Perhaps their - as Ferriss termed it - ‘party’ was moved to another location in order to keep their theta from being enturbulated.
As is typical of an OSA member, Ferriss’ speech was always directed on the attack, although he’s good being subtle about it. All mentions of ‘fair game’ were ignored completely. I think he’s realised that denying such a widely used practice is idiotic (Mike’s not just a pretty face, huh?). With the addition of Brian admitting that there would be a proper way of implementing ‘fair game’ at the earlier June protest there would be no way of denying it as well; so he simply didn’t say a word about it.
Conversation was a pretty non-issue. Same old stuff said. Ferriss thinks this thinks this is all a conspiracy secretly run by some big leader. I s’pose he’s entitled to his opinions.
We left the Scilons to go to their make moar moneys party just after 8pm. Hands were suitably iced over by that time.
Featuring the brave contingent of Christchurch protestors and some failbaiting by the scientologists, including Mikey Ferriss, head of NZCoS, who were eventually made to leave by the police - and are now in the police files for harrassment and lewd behaviour!
Auckland
Featuring Martin Ruston the veteran cult protestor, Auckland anons flyering, and the infamous ‘homosexuals are physically sick’ quote. And playing frisbee with free scientology propaganda!
New vid from timepirate! Anons hand out tonnes of leaflets on Queen St, and have a bit of a chat to Mike ‘I’m OT4 and I DO have superpowerz’ Ferriss and some other scientologists (in the yellow Volunteer Minister t-shirts).
Here’s Mike Ferriss posing with his son James and an Anonymous protester in Auckland on Saturday…
…Guess Mikey has had a cognition and doesn’t think that Anonymous are “nuts” and that our campaign is “dangerous” and full of “religious intolerance and hate-speech” anymore! Yay!
Mind getting your lawyers to send an apology for their recent threatening letter/s now, Mikey?
The Anonymous protests against the Scientology Organisation’s criminal actions and Fair Game policy went off without a hitch in Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch today!
The Auckland protest had 46 anons on Queen St at its peak, handing out over 1300 flyers, plus a contingent of about 10 scientologists trying to share the glory. Meet one posing with a couple of friendly anons!
The head of the NZ CoS, Mike Ferriss, and his mates indulged in a bit of bullbaiting and hassling of the protesters, the ethical Scientologists that they are. When asked how he’d discovered the name of one of the anons present, he replied “I’m OT4 and I do have superpowers.” Anon’s response: “I’m name fagged, dammit.” Guess you should really stop wasting Scientology members’ money on PIs and lawyers to Fair Game innocent New Zealanders then, Mikey. Just use those superpowers to shatter supression and stop people telling the ugly truth about the Organisation of Scientology.
Wellington had three stalwart anons flyering on Manners Mall, despite the rain, wind and cold. Delicious chocolate cake was eaten and plans were made to amp up the effort for June’s protest.
Christchurch, home of NZFG, had ten anons showing up to protest, including several newbies and some ex-scientologists. The anons masked up and spread the word with over 400 flyers. Many lulz were had!
Epic success yet again, Anonymous! New Zealand has shown the world how it’s done and kicked off the fourth global day of action in style! A special thanks to all the brave ex-scientologists who came out and stood up against the crimes and abuses of Scientology with us today. And cheers to Mike Ferriss and his gang for a live demonstration of Fair Game today!
