Arrest the prosecutors!

This is a travesty of the law. Freedom of speech is the issue here. To persecute this man based on the evidence I have reviewed is illegal. These Prosecutors should be indicted along with the hearing Judge! They Should immeadiatly be removed for Constitutional contempt, fined, and serve time. L. Ron Hubbard reminds me of the Reverand Jim Jones. He is as far out as his old sci fi books. Asumof (please excuse spelling) had a far greater mind than Ron did. It just blows me away that a sci-fi writer would start a religion or cult that inteligent people would buy into.

Yes, this is WAY over the top

This is more out of line than the Rodney King beating.

CA law Unconstitutional as applied

It seems to me the comments made could not reasonably be categorized as a threat. They were obviously made in gest, and the arrest someone for making such comments, in my opinion, violates the United States Constitution.

I live in California, and I'm as supporting of religious freedom as anyone on the planet, but this has gone way too far.

California: Shame on YOU!

Surprised?

Does this really surprise you ? The republic that once was the U.S.A. is DEAD. Money talks, and that's about it.

Yes, it's unconstitutional. And how is this a 'credible' threat? There's no such thing as a nuclear tom cruise missile, there also is no way on earth anyone would get hold of a cruise missile without being detected. So, the creditbility argument is bunk. I would have laughed in the face of the prosecutor and the COS henchmen while I refused to prosecute this guy.

If only there was a Tom Cruise Missile. Oh wouldn't that be fun ;-)

Hawaii didn't existed 75 million years ago.

Hawaii didn't existed 75 million years ago.

That's the scientific proof that Hubbard was wrong, if ever needed. There's no way the events told by Hubbard were right. The island is barely half a million years old. This scam must end. This is pure Darwinism.

1st amendmant and all but....

In this one case I would support the actions if the US decided to take the same stance as various other countries and flat out ban Scienfraudogy from this country.

The First Amendment has really been stretched here

If Scientology is a religion, I'm Jesus, Mohammed and Bob Marley all in one entity and everybody should be memorizing my every blessed statement. Ahhhhhhhchoooo!

everyone is intitled to an opinion, this guy had the balls to post his, hasn't anybody got anything productive to do anymore !!!

wrong

Most windiots believes in Scientology, here's proof...
"The federal government is examining whether a Windows 2000
utility developed by a Scientologist would prohibit public
agencies from installing the new operating system released last
month. German law bars state and federal governments from
doing business with a member of the Church of Scientology. "

LOL, I'm not surprised since most believe windows/vista is better
than OSX.

Good for the Germans

I knew there had to be something I liked about Germany. Why can't we have such a law here? I certainly wouldn't do business with or even personally know a member of Scn.
