Scientology Protest: Sunday!

It’s been a while since the last gleeful worldwide protest of Scientology — thank you, Internet — and turns out it’s time for another one. The Alert Philadelphia email reads, inexplicably: “On Saturday, April 12, 2008, from 9:00 AM to 7:00 PM, at the Church of Scientology of Pennsylvania located at 1312-16 Chestnut Street there will be a protest against drugs.”

Ahh, so let’s just re-write and explain my mistake on the original post. Philadelphia’s protest is actually Sunday. Scientology planned a protest against drugs in front of their headquarters on Saturday so the Anonymous people couldn’t do their Operation Reconnection protest on Saturday, when all the worldwide protests are.

So, in conclusion: Scientology is worried about people protesting its nefarious deeds, so they blocked out the entire day for a “protest against drugs.” To counter this, you all need to show up Sunday (around noon, I assume) at City Hall and protest Scientology on a Super Special Fight The Man’s Counter-protesting Efforts Protest. There’s more info here.

The original email I received a while back after the jump.
