I arrived in Brighton around midday.It was very good to meet the Brighton annons.After shaking hands with Annons, waved to the video recorder in the upstairs window of the Dianetics and Scientology college.
Interesting to note that every protest is different.
There were seven/ eight of us. Lots of fliers were handed out.Brighton residents are very supportive of the Annons presence.Unfortunately there is no car honking in Brighton. I missed that. A bus did honk once and i found myself shouting "Yay" only to realise it was because some idiot was crossing the road when they shouldn't have been.
My sign was the same one i used in East.Grinstead.

Lots of people commented on how true that was.One kid shouted out to a masked Annon " Your masks scare little kids", "Rubbish" i shouted back.I chatted to one man who was talking about Citizens Commission of Human Rights. I wish i knew what he was talking about, think he'd been drinking. Whatever he was trying to say, he did agree with my sign.
An ex Scieno who didn't stop to chat, said in passing,wasted 17 years in there and it's Fantastic to see someone doing something about it.
Had some very interesting conversations, yet again met some lovely people.At one point had a few people round me and instantly reminded of Tory and the wall of OTs blocking the sign, so raised my sign higher and carried on talking.I'm sure i wasn't being blocked but my sign did get read by hundreds of people and i aimed to make sure as many people as possible read it. As someone pointed out, you were unlikely to forget the Exscientologykids.com logo.
Went off to get a coffee and a much needed sandwich,Thank you,got talking to an Annon for too long and arrived back to find everyone had called it a day.Sorry i missed saying Goodbye.See you next time.
So although i missed seeing my London Anon friends, it was a very good day.What i continue to find quite incredible is how so many people worldwide go out of their way to protest $cientology, having never been in, yet determined to bring to light the abuse and suffering that has and still does go on inside the corporation of $cientology.
Thank You!
