The Push is On (again)

[Iknowtoomuch]

They send you a bill a month later for the funeral expenses.

Nice!

Phone Schmone!!

My promo stated that people from the Church were going to make house calls, yes, visit the people in their homes to recover them, er... I mean get moving on the bridge again by slapping them into the Basics.

Not in my home.

Ain't gonna happen.

Bingo. This has already happened to me. I have to withhold the details.

Believe me-its happening. It's happened to us quite a few times. Even after being out-the saddest was sending a friend of mine from the local org.

It was VERY cold here and I wouldn't let her in!! I know how terrible that sounds but I figured that once i let her in she wouldn't leave. She obviously had no compunction about using our friendship.

Just a funny note: notice how the church uses "euphanisms" for things (being the little liars they are?)

"briefing" = Reg. Cycle
"survey" = Reg. cycle
"personality test" = Reg. cycle

Well they call these home invasions......"tours" and actually use it as a verb- "I was Toured by two Sea Org missionaires and I had to call the Sheriff to get them off the property"........

 

[Mick Wenlock]

This is a weird thread to read - I have never had a call or anything but of course I am persona very non grata and, I think the fact that we live out in a rural area of Colorado where coming onto someone's property uninvited is a risky thing to do also helps.

The only realistic way to stop them is to obtain a restraining order against their local representative. Once that is done you can pressure the court to jail the local person for contempt if they keep it up.

Oh yeah....that's for sure......the first time someone wanted to 'brief' me ...I fell for it and donated to that MF-in superpower..... and again with the IAS.
It took me awhile but then I learned to NEVER call anyone back who wants to 'brief' you from the Church of Scientology.

Oh I can't wait for a home invasion......I ned to start planning how many pissed of hungry animals I will let out the front door.

 

[grundy]

I just get calls. I haven't gotten a visit yet.

I don't know what I would do - but it wouldn't be polite.

 

[Wisened One]

Well, I have two very large dogs. (each of em weighs more than I do!). And if they ever come knocking on my door....well, SORRY if ya got attacked, sir. But I can't hold 'em back, ya know.....

Here is a somewhat unorthodox strategy which may encourage
unwelcome, pushy house visitors to leave.

Tell them,"sure..have a seat, you don't mind if I work while you talk?"

At this point, you start fiddling with your firearms collection spread
out on the table..."cleaning" your pistol, shotgun, assault rifle,
whatever you might have. Let them see you lovingly buff your
Colt or Remington or Ruger or whatever, drop a bit of oil here and there.
Shine the stock.

Particularly intimidating might be loading
and unloading an ammo clip..especially one of those 30 round
M-16 clips. Click it in an out of place in the piece a few times
(don't actually chamber a round though, and make sure there's
none previously chambered...don't want any accidents!).
Be sure to give them an occasional "uh-huh" while doing your
firearms "maintanence" as they prattle away.

You may be amazed at how distracting your little show will
be to their "TR" discipline, to their intended spiel. Bullbaiting
as an art form! They might become somewhat uncomfortable
and leave. You are obviously dangerous and unpredictable...
certainly not "their" sort of fellow!

Nice one!

Since I don't own any firearms, I would probably cook up a steak, and a baked potato and salad, and eat slowly and thoughtfully while they pratteled on. I would apologize of course for not offering them any, but you see they dropped in un announced, and I just simply was not prepared....

Guys we have the chance to throw the ball back to them and tell them anything we want.

Exactamente! "Oh good! I'm SO glad you've come! Have a seat. Coffee? Cookies? Great. Now, yes, yes, I'll hear what you've got to say later but first I've GOT to tell you about this fantastic YouTube video. Look at this! Did you know Hubbard was _____? I never knew DM was such a bully--look at ALL these stories from people who worked with him! Oh, I've got a question--how do you guys sleep at night? I know the press isn't always truthful, but these YouTube comments are 99% anti-Scn."

Etc. Lots of fun. They won't stay for long.

Of course, if you're trying to fly under their radar because of family connections or whatever, you can't pull that stunt. But if not, wow, it's an opportunity!

[skydog]

How about this. A chalk outline of a body surrounded by crime scene tape; then put all the literature they send you inside the "crime scene".

Ah yes, true indeed; "The way to a man's heart is through his
stomach"! In this case, not being sure of the gender of the
animal contributing the Steak, perhaps not "Bullbaiting", but
certainly "Beefbaiting"!

that is masterful....if I had the guts to follow it through--this would be the best .... !

Oh,Yes 4-5 times i just through the ball at them.I asked if they knew about the SP room at the Int.I told the last one a couple days about Rinder that has blown he asked when? I told him about OT 's getting cancer and going nuts.I asked why scientology pulls all these courts cases ? I told him that i have the time of my life and i am taking a long trip and he said come and spend a few thousands for services and my answer was how about you dead file me declare me an SP!!!!He said no you are not an SP and i said i ve to run to work .He said can i call you back and i said no take me of your lists.

 

[Axiom142]

Yes,

I think this is a good idea. If anyone comes round trying to sell you the basics, start pointing out some outpoints.

"If getting the books right was so important, why didn't LRH do it. Surely he must have read his own books?"

"Did you know that virtually the entire Int Management strata have been declared SPs?" (and show evidence)

"Why do you think David Miscavige has been telling us Scientology is expanding like never before, when we can all see that it isn't?"

"Did you know LRH died from a stroke and with Vistaril (a tranquilliser) in his bloodstream?" (and show copy of coroner's report)

"Did you know LRH once begged for psychiatric help?" (and show copy of letter)

etc, etc.

Bet they won't come back after that!

Fun to be had

The regges are in you house- the phone rings-it's your lawyer- you put the call on a speaker phone for all to hear-he tells you that your aunt susan died and left you 1million dollars-he says there is one problem and that none of the $$ can be given to the cos [in any way shape or form]. All $$$ you spend will come from the lawyers office signed by him- you can't write a check yourself.

This is too easy. I didn't even have to call Peter Letterese to get around this one.

 

[Feral]

Guys we have the chance to throw the ball back to them and tell them anything we want.

Yeah Tessa!,

Mrs Feral and I have been doing that for three months.

We have our points written by the phone so we don't get derailed.

We first tell them about our own crap experience and what it cost us and how little case gain we got. Then point out that we looked and could not find any more than 100,000 scilons, including squirrels. That was using the census, if you use IAS memberships it is closer to 40,000 so why the big lie about 10 mill public? Then we point out about the human rights abuses in the SO, and ask if they are aware of what the universal declaration of human rights says, and if so can they name any particular right that is granted to SO??

If we have not lost them by then we just keep going. We keep wondering when we will be deadfiled.....but they keep calling. I thought it would be pretty effective if every ex did this.

Have the lawyer talk to my travel agent. I'll take a beauty release over false promises any day of the week.
