a.r.s. thought police symbiosis with OSA

As a result of years-long effort by OSA, a third category of Scientology sympathizer has appeared on a.r.s. First the "Free Zoners" supported the technology of Scientology, then the "brainwashing-deniers" supported Scientology's all-important brain-washing policies, and finally, the a.r.s. thought police have officially arrived on the scene to work in conjunction with OSA in putting an information brown-out on Bob Minton.

Bob Minton has gotten the critics' message across to more people than any other American in recent history, with his many appearances on the broadcast media, locally, nationally and internationally. Scientology operates based on statistics (such as how many people get the message). Therefore Scientology's Public Enemy No. 1 is Bob Minton, and their operatives have been working industriously to raise public outcry against him. Working symbiotically with OSA, some malcontent a.r.s. posters have resorted to ambush in an attempt to alter Bob's message to their own liking.

"Are you still carrying that sign around that makes everybody think you're a Nazi?" was the gist of a recent assault on his character. This do-you-still-beat-your-wife style question was poised as an attempt to get a public concession from Bob Minton. (Regardless of truth, this type of question is meant to shed negative light on the person to whom it is directed.)

Those who have voiced disapproval of abusive means of this type have themselves been subjected to hateful attacks on credibility such as, "I have to wonder about which of your judgment skills were impaired when you were in Scn, and what has failed to return to normal now that you're in the outside world." This particular statement was directed at former cult members who have first-hand experience of how Scientology operates and from whom much of Bob Minton's information originates.

How is OSA's new breed of psycho-terrorist defending the policing of thought and speech of others? Simply by reversing roles and claiming that the thought police themselves are the moderates and "thought criminals" who associate with Bob Minton are the extremists who are harming their cause. All in the name of free speech and justice, of course.
