Now it is time to focus on a new topic: Disconnection. For those of you who are in the know, Scientology’s disconnection policies tear families apart as evidenced by the hundreds of stories on Ex-Scientology Kids. So this next March (planned for April 12th) is to be named “Operation Reconnect“. As concerned Anon we need to try and reach those Adelaide citizens effected by the Disconnection Policy, this includes people who have been harassed to join after receiving “Stress Tests” and “Dianetics Therapy”.

This Saturday 29th March at 13:00, Anonymous will meet again at Hindmarsh Square near the Griffins Head to distribute hundreds of flyers asking for people to step forward. Be aware this is a mini-raid not a protest. While we hope for as many to attend as possible we will be splitting into groups of 5 or so depending on numbers to avoid requiring a permit. An E-Mail Address has been set up at reconnect@anonsa.org for people to get in contact with us to relate their stories. All stories will be kept in the strictest confidence and will only be related with false names and dates depending on the level of involvement agreed to by the victims of this kind of abuse.

Flyers will be made up in the next week and I urge all those coming to print as many as possible. We handed out over 1600 last time and it’d be great to get out even more this time. Please comment on whether you think it would be a good idea to bring the petitions to the mini-raid or wether we should leave them for the big push on April 12th. See you all there!

The public reception was heartwarming to say the least, with the majority of people being cautious but curious about what we were saying. Many gave thanks and some indicated their interest in joining us on March 15th. To those who are new visitors to AnonSA we welcome you and invite you to read the information and interact with others on this site. Information is free and we wish to share ideas and opinions with anyone who is interested in finding out the truth.

We did have a few people who were disinterested, a couple of smart ass kids and a crazy lady, but all in all we were received well. To the citizen who we spoke to about his Mother’s own personal experience with the cult’s harassment tactics: please post a comment on this site to a false email. We will be in touch as we would like to raise awareness on the devastating effects Scientology has on families at our Rally in April.

Over the next few months Anonymous will continue to raise awareness of this Organisation, bringing into question it’s business practices and tax exempt status, it’s harassment and manipulative recruitment tactics, it’s past criminal activities and it’s current litigious nature, it’s beginnings as a pseudo psychology taken advantage of by a greedy science-fiction writer and many other practices that should not be tolerated from a religious organisation.

Our peaceful attempts to raise awareness will continue and we wish for all people to take part in our quest for truth as we look forward to the 15th of March. Please take the time to check out the Lisa McPherson Trust, Xenu.net, and “The Unfunny Truth…” and post any questions or observations on AnonSA. We are not cyber terrorists or religious bigots, we merely want to see the abuse of Human Rights cease. Thanks again to all those who participated in the awareness campaign, more details will be posted outlining our next actions.
