The Scientologists had their henchmen remove that scary jargon video. A new one is here.

    Sorry for how long this is:
    I took a friend to dinner in DC on Friday across from the Scientology Center.I have NEVER see anyone coming or going from there but I am never in that area on a Friday night . Apparently that's when it is on! There were some people (3) outside with signs protesting, albeit quietly. I see a group of black kids-maybe 7 of them- talking to the protestors. I am thinking they are curious, the signs are funny, whatever. Well clutch the pearls if said kids did not go into the center. Before they do, 3 of them yell at the nice protestor, who informs them that L.Ron was no fan of people with tans. A few minutes later, another altercation with 2 kids no older then 14 and they are attacking the nice protestors.A few minutes after that 3 more kids/teens come out and yell at the guys.IThere are adults that keep coming outside but they go back in, except for the one guy with the Canon Rebel that is taking photos of everyone. The whole thing was creepy

    Burners: be sure to visit the Scientology bright yellow tent at Burning Man to say hi and maybe get your own video of crazy Scientologists!

    Scientology = Insane. Please direct your lawsuit to Gawker Media so they can mock it to death. Thank you.

    The only way I will comment on this thread is through anonymity, which is sad, sad. Youtube cited the personal privacy of the $cientologist as a reason to remove the video. At 3:08 in the video, the $cientologist mentions the camera, he knows its there. Its not like this is a candid video. I don;t see why this video was removed. It should be allowed to remain. For every video that gets taken down, 2 more should take its place.

    Why do all Scientologists seem to have a maniacal laugh?
