Re: Nashville, TN: February 14th Planning

Do iiiit. It's the Elbyday protest! My birfdaiiii~

Re: Nashville, TN: February 14th Planning

Hai Guise! Did some flyers at Belmont today, but not as many as I wanted, ran out of black ink. I'd like to do some cards, I've got tons of card stock but I need to find some that are already formatted and ready to print. Went to the Resources thread but couldn't find anything that was print ready tl;dr.

Will try to get Lipscomb later this week when the ink comes in.

If someone can PM me I have a contact/intern that works for two media outlets but I can't be the one to send stuff. Want it to come from proxy.

Re: Nashville, TN: February 14th Planning

Look at Kinko's for YFTC's. 1000 for 40 bucks, and 2.50 for each additional 100. Much cheaper than cardstock and ink. xD At least, that's what I'm gonna do.

Re: Nashville, TN: February 14th Planning

I have a shit ton of card stock. I also know myself well, won't get around to Kinko's anytime soon.

I will make some moar flyers.

Re: Nashville, TN: February 14th Planning

Lmao, have at it then! Go go go!

Re: Nashville, TN: February 14th Planning

Hah! Dooo eeeeet!

Re: Nashville, TN: February 14th Planning

I WANT TO GIVE PEOPLE CARDS BUT I DO NOT LIVE IN NASHVILLE D:

Hi Elby! I want to be your friend! I will have yummy Elbyday cupcakes that have hearts on them just for you and grumpy faces just for throwing at poopy Scilons!

Re: Nashville, TN: February 14th Planning

You don't have to live in nashville to give out cards! You can give out cards everywhere. :O Just give them a few WWP links and YFTC links, and they're universal! ;D

Re: Nashville, TN: February 14th Planning



yhelothar.

we have 5000 of these on the way.

Re: Nashville, TN: February 14th Planning

I feel like sometimes important topics of discussion get lost in here, so I started a ning for us: Nashville Anonymous - Forums for the discussion of Nashville protests against Scientology

Re: Nashville, TN: February 14th Planning

Send harpoons to local@tennessean.com

It's the story tip off email for the Tennessean.

Tell them about us. Tell them about their new building. Tell them about our cause. Tell them about our anonniversary. Invite them to thhe protest for free cake.

Make it professional. Get us taken seriously.

Re: Nashville, TN: February 14th Planning

Am working on it now.

Re: Nashville, TN: February 14th Planning

Sent this:

The recent death of Jett Travolta was a senseless tragedy and
most likely a direct result of his parents involvement with
the Church of Scientology. It was not the first death by the
hand of this so called church. Scientology associated deaths

The church has purchased a building in our town, as
reported by your paper on Jan. 27, 2008. The
intention of the cult is to expand its reach into the
community. This expansion is not in the best interest of
the people of Nashville. Anonymous will continue to protest
this expansion and will mark the first anniversary of the creation
of Project Chanology with a protest to be held at 11AM, Feb.14
at the current home of Scientology 1204 16th Avenue South.
We invite you to join us. There will be cake.

Must.Have.Cake.

Re: Nashville, TN: February 14th Planning

My e-mail to the Tennesseean:

"To Whom It May Concern:

On Saturday, February 14th, the group known as "Anonymous" will be protesting at the Scientology Center in Nashville, Tennessee. Our aim is to draw attention to the atrocities committed by the "church" of Scientology, to the greed exhibited in every aspect of this "religion". Lists of people who have perished due to Scientology's neglect and/or abuse can be found with little effort via Google (Jett Travolta, Lisa McPherson), and even those who manage to renounce their following of Scientology fear to speak out against the organization.

Scientology is a bane to all that is good and right in the world! At 11 AM on Valentine's Day, 1204 16th Street South, we will rise forth with a clenched fist against their terrorism.

There will be cake.

--Anonymous"

I think it would be funny if everyone mentions cake in their e-mail ;D

Re: Nashville, TN: February 14th Planning

Nashville Anons FTW!

Should we also poon the Scene?

Re: Nashville, TN: February 14th Planning

I'm actually not from Tennessee--I lie, and just meddle in Tennessee's affairs ;D

Re: Nashville, TN: February 14th Planning

I liek the way you meddles.

You mentions the cake.

Re: Nashville, TN: February 14th Planning

Anyone still up for a bit of proof reading? I tend to be mega scattered when I write.



To Whom It May Concern,


February 14th the internet group known as Anonymous will once again be gathering at the corner of 16th Ave S and Edgewood to protest the crimes committed by the "Church" of scientology. We gather to speak out against scientology's blatant disregard for our nation's laws and it's people. For too long the cult of scientology has been allowed to run unchecked. They have murdered. They have infiltrated our government offices to steal evidence against them. They have made false bomb threats against themselves and blamed it on people such as Paulette Cooper. They have abused the legal system with frivilous lawsuits. They have blackmailed their way into the IRS to procure a tax exempt status that is granted to no other religion, mainstream or otherwise. They're followers often do not pay taxes at all because the cult demands that they forgoe paying taxes in order to pay more money to the cult. The IRS has essentially broken the establishment clause of the First Ammendmant by giving this special tax exempt status to the cult. Even more agregeous is the fact that the details of the deal are sealed and not even the 9th Circut Court can get the IRS to divulge the details. On February 14th we will stand, peacefully, with signs and flyers in hand to stand up for what is right. To stand up to this tyranical organization that threatens the very principles this country was founded on.

We urge you to join us at 11:00 AM on February 14th. We want to be heard so that more people will question the sinister acts of the "Church" of scientology.

Re: Nashville, TN: February 14th Planning

Eh, that's debatable. IRS =/= Congress. Personally, I'd consider omitting that Establishment Clause bit.

Sounds a little melodramatic, and slightly deviating from some of Scientology's more fucked up religious retardation.

Re: Nashville, TN: February 14th Planning

Fixed some spelling. Here is body ready for copypasta. You forgot the part about the cake.

Re: Nashville, TN: February 14th Planning

Aw, Zonker, Anonymous really DOES deliver

lulz.

Re: Nashville, TN: February 14th Planning

I thought it might be a good idea to put that in with all the talk of taxes and such going on.

I wasn't too sure if I wanted to straight up attack what they call "religious beliefs." Still a bit touchy.

Is there anything else I need to add to it? I didn't want to make it really long because it might not get read. I was going for making it sound really dramatic to spark their attention. Sometimes to them passionate = interesting story. This is the Tennessean we're talking about. Plus, if they do an article and mention them not paying taxes, do you know how much the comments would blow up? I thought they were bad during the presidential campaign. Those people get rather nasty if you mention someone not paying taxes and imply that we are carrying them along.

Re: Nashville, TN: February 14th Planning

Shall I add the cake as a P.S.?

Re: Nashville, TN: February 14th Planning

Taking MuffinKat's comments into account, here's what I came up with. I think breaking it up into shorter paragraphs is probably a good idea - easier to read that way.

*shrug* I'm from Mississippi, I know squat about this Tennessean of which you speak. I e-mailed them anyway. >;P

Re: Nashville, TN: February 14th Planning

You guys are awesome!!! Here's what I have atm with most of the spelling errors fixed that you guys pointed out. Also with new formatting of paragraphs. Seriously, thanks for pointing out where the paragraphs should begin and end, because I am NOTORIOUS for just having run on thoughts and putting too much into one paragraph. See! I'm doing it again!

Re: Nashville, TN: February 14th Planning

Check your caps on scientology. Cake=lulz

I just sent the press release to each one of the writers @ Scene and also a
version of my Tennessean letter, sans the article ref.

If all of these people show up we will need moar cake.

Re: Nashville, TN: February 14th Planning

It was actually a point to not capitalize scientology. I probably should have pointed that out. Oh well, can't change shit now. I already sent it off. :|
