I've noticed a trend among my fellow Anonymous - We have realised that the scientologists basically just close up shop and stay home, with only the hard-core ones left. I'm wondering if you guys can come up with some good ideas for future protests, within our organizational constraints (at least in my city):
1. We can gather 100 people with 2 weeks notice
2. We can probably gather 20-30 at 1 weeks notice
3. We can get about 10 with 4 days notice, I estimate, AND with minimal exposure - that is, we'd be able to keep it secret until the day.
What should we do? Just keep protesting in public areas? My feeling is that that's been done twice already, and we need to innovate to keep momentum. Maybe specify a day to set up several scientology style stress tests in the main area of the city? (lots of people, advertised) Try and do only one, but do it on several different days? (fewer people involved = element of surprise) Try and surprise them at their building? If so, at what time?
My main idea is that we need to target them somewhere where they CANNOT back off. That is, if we try and go after their recruitment efforts, free tests etc, then they loose recrutiment if they back off, but if they don't we will be able to REALLY get to the members present. We are all well informed by now.
What do you suggest? Note that in some ways novelty of ideas is needed more than effectiveness.
