DELPHI ACADEMY SANTA MONICA
I resort to civil disobedience outside the Delphi Academy Santa Monica
|
I could theoretically get four years in prison for this 90 second video.
I tried to intentionally disturb or disquiet the assemblage of people
meeting inside this religious school. Except that the teacher claims
it is not a religious school. My trial is coming up and Scientology
demanded that judge have me take down this YouTube video and it's
Rutube copy. I have now put the video back up under the judge's
stipulation that everyone in it become anonymous.
|
I deliberately engage in civil disobedience to draw unwanted attention
to the Delphi Academy of Santa Monica. Why? Because LA County sheriff
Lee Baca IS a Scientologist and would never prosecute Scientology. Because
the air has gone out of anonymous protests and nobody wants to protest
at a school, much less anyplace else. Because journalists are afraid
to discuss Scientology unless they are hiding behind a court case. In
other words, society, the police and the press refused to act. I was
willing "take one for the team." But I could go to jail
for four years over this video also.

The police arrive after my civil disobedience at the Delphi Academy.
They naively allow me to record them for 17 minutes before asking to
see my camera. What happened when the camera turned off? Find out below.
|
The teachers at the Delphi Academy claim they are not affiliated with
Scientology. And yet
Kendrick Moxon,
their main lawyer, knew all about my arrest just days later. He
interrogated me at length regarding my Delphi Academy incident during
a deposition on an unrelated matter. Moxon loves to abuse depositions
and discovery (gathering legal evidence from the opposition). At first
I refused to talk but my lawyer suggested I answer the questions. It
made for some great videos and he never used the material against me.
I used it against THEM! |

Angry Gay Pope hated Delphi Santa Monica with a passion - now it is gone. Will AGP end up like Ronald Reagan without commies?? Only time will tell. Like in this presentation of Santa Monica's own Travolta fueled Scientology hive. The Travoltas were two of the sponsors of this school. But the real enabler was the Episcopal Church, St. Augustine, which rented their school out to Scientology and sold out their ethics. The Angry Gay Pope takes you right up in the faces of the employees of this defunct "school." Computer animation Anonymizes them since this was an illegal recording session. |
There is not much more insulting that being rushed through a public speech in front of a bunch of rich Santa Monica politicians who don't care. One of them is a Kennedy, Bobby Schriver. Arrogant assholes! Other speakers felt the same and clued me in on the attitude of the council. |
| WHAT HAPPENED AFTER THE CAMERA WAS OFF |
I approached the Delphi Academy of Santa Monica wearing a colorful, kid
friendly rainbow shirt. I deliberately recorded everything I could
so there would be no questions or confusion as to events.Unlike last time,
there were no children outside. I photographed the inside of the classroom
from the windows facing the street. There were no people in the classroom.
I was looking for evidence of E-meters, study tech, Applied Scholastics,
W.I.S.E. (World Institute
of Scientology Enterprises) and A.B.L.E. (Assoc. for Better Living &
Education). I entered the courtyard of the church next door. There
was almost nobody around. The classroom doors were all closed. I saw two
or three children inside.I began loudly informing the teachers of the problems
with their religion, Scientology, using cinematic protest announcements.
These included “Scientology is a cult,” “You deserve a living wage,” “You
should be ashamed to be Scientologists.” I did NOT use any obscenities
or discuss adult topics like “David Miscavige is sleeping with Laurisse
Stuckenbrock.” The They asked if I was the person the school had called and what was going on? They had me sit down next to the plants on the sidewalk while they had a long talk with school officials. I have seen the police in Eventually I was silent. A cop I will call “Good Cop” tried to talk about the weather. I said “You don’t have to make conversation.” The police brought a woman out. I assume she was with the Delphi School and not the church next door. The police said “Listen to this woman.” The woman told me she did not want me to come back. The police re-iterated “She doesn’t want you to come back. Do you understand?”They decided to arrest me. I “assumed the position” as they went through my things. They confiscated all my memory chips: 1 – the camera I used in the raid, 2 – the bodybuilding footage from the HD camera, 3 – a memory chip in my bag (don’t remember if it held anything). "Do you like ... bodybuilders?" the cop asked sheepishly. They found my medical marijuana and asked about it. They found my HIV and psych med Effexor XR and asked about those. I was handcuffed and placed in the squad car. Then the police began to confer and, apparently, get cold feed. Outside I heard them debating and one cop said “He admitted he did it!” I said “C’mon let’s go! I’m not gonna arrest myself here!” When the cop got in and began driving me to jail I told him I wanted this to go quickly or the Scientologists would arrive with their photographers and use the pictures of me being arrested as propaganda for their members. As we drove to jail the cop mentioned that Santa Monica was a very liberal place where protests occurred often. He also told me that a lady from the school had had me "citizen's arrested." That is important because it means that if I am found not guilty in court I can sue her for false arrest.  Although
I had heard people complain that jails have revolving doors but it looked
like an ordinary door to me. At the jail my USB memory stick was also confiscated
from my keychain. My belt, shoelaces and anything else I could harm myself
with was taken away. I was placed in a holding room whose toilet flushed
every time the door opened. The guard lady said this was to prevent
people from flushing evidence away. The policeman from the school told me
that, because I take a psych med and HIV meds they were going to let me
go without having to post bail or be incarcerated until the next day to
see a judge. “That will save you some money” he said. I thanked him. I was
held for about four hours “cool off” time, fingerprinted, allowed to call
my lawyer, and released. The phone cord in prison is very short so
nobody can strangle themselves with it. I used the time to tell the police
about Scientology, which interested them. While being let go I told
the jailer I had a habit of buying websites about Scientologists without
their knowledge, thereby stealing their Internet identities. “Man
I wouldn’t want you mad at me!” he joked in what sounded like an Australian
accent. As the female jailer let me out the exit she pointed at the
landscaping and said “Now no stepping on the flowers!” I laughed and
said I only step on them to make the police arrive, and, this being a police
station, they were already here! They seemed to enjoy this rare visit
from a “political prisoner.” Also I heard them all laughing a lot.
I'm sure it is pretty boring in there as they only get three or four
people arrested a day.The next day my medical marijuana, psych med, HIV meds and bag were returned to me. My cameras and memory chips were not. Without the camera I could not protest Scientology. After some effort my lawyer eventually got those back. However, copies of the memory chip from the raid camera took many months to obtain. This concerned me because Scientologists love to steal evidence from evidence lockers. They have done this several times in Riverside. |
| DELPHI SCHOOLS PROTEST DATA REMOVED AS PER COURT ORDER |
| 2010: Today
my lawyer Graham Berry and I were in court near LAX in Los Angeles to plead
on misdemeanor loitering and disturbing the peace charges in my Delphi Schools
protest trial. But first the cult's lawyer, the DA and my lawyer all went
off the record and discussed with the commissioner the fury Scientology
is feeling from my posting of an Aug. 4th protest video at the Delphi Schools
Santa Monica. We were given a letter from the parents of the child I called "angry
gay pope jr." complaining that his face was not pixelated and I had
recorded him without permission. The letter sounded like it was written
by Kendrick Moxon. In it the parents recount that, although they got my
video deleted from youtube, they could not get it deleted from www.rutube.ru,
the Russian youtube. Scientology was also furious that I posted Scientology
internal memos with cultists names on them. These were obtained in the police
report. After some negotiation it was agreed that I would, within 48 hours, take down the video, redact the names and delete the police report until the trial is over. Feeling that without the video there was no story I simply deleted everything, including identifying materials I took from the school's own website. The judge reassured me that I could write anything I wanted on the story as long as I didn't use any names. This is where anon style nicknames like "angry gay pope jr." and "Antishirtless lady" come in handy! I was then offered a plea bargain. I would have to stay away from Scientology schools, do 30 hours of community service and take gobs of anger management classes. Can you imagine that? Welcome to anger management class. What's your name? I'm the angry gay pope. "Boy, we got our work cut out for us on this one" teacher would say! They had also contacted the Riverside DA where I am on probation for my PansyGate protest. If I took the plea bargain I was assured that Riverside would not prosecute me for a probation violation. I plead "not guilty" to all charges, which had now doubled from four to eight. They are all variations on loitering and disturbing the peace. Charges based on events in the August 4th video starring AGP jr. are sure to lead nowhere. Not only is my loitering caught totally on video, it is only ninety seconds long! That's not loitering. That's not even an entire single "loit." Also, some of the charges claim I refused to leave when asked on Aug. 4th. Anyone who sees the brief video will note that nobody told me to leave at all. Case goes to trial in late February. |
| ANGRY GAY POPE PLEA BARGAINS IN DELPHI SCHOOLS PROTEST CASE | |
MAY 9, 2011 LAX COURTHOUSE
LOS ANGELES: Today my lawyer Graham Berry and I went to the
courthouse for about the fifth-sixth time because my trial was almost scheduled
to start. The longer you wait the better your bargaining conditions
can be I have found. That's because the criminal justice system is starting
to collapse. There is no money. The Santa Monica City attorney's
office is closed every other Friday now. The Riverside justice system is
emptying jails because they have no money to run them. Throughout
California the justice system is closed for a day sometimes to save money.
Now Gov. Jerry Brown wants to shove state penitentiary convicts into local
jails to ease overcrowding. When you are scheduled to go to
trial on a certain date that is "zero day." The courts have 30 more
days to give you a room, a judge and jury. If you don't get them justice
is not served and you might not even go to trial at all. So my day
zero is somebody else's day 30 and the court puts that case on priority.
So the DA is much more likely to settle once the clock starts ticking.
That is what happened in my
Pansy Stomping trial in Riverside and it happened again here.
This morning I told my lawyer
Graham Berry
I wanted to take this thing to trial but he warned me against it. "Yes most
of the
charges are bogus. But they will still get you on one or two and
that's all it takes. There you are doing it on video and they'll play all
those other videos of you yelling. The DA says that if you want to go to
court, good you'll go to jail."
I agreed to these conditions because it prevented my lawyer's biggest fear: that I would lose my case and be banned from protesting all Scientology locations. He told me "I would hate to lose you as there aren't very many protesters in LA and you are one of the best." For example, I was the only one to show up and protest Tom Cruise at the Wiesenthal Center. It galls me that the DA who never prosecuted Scientology (especially their preposterous Santa Monica Mission) could order me around. But by November my manual labor will be over and my Delphi videos will still be up and I will still be able to protest and my community labor will be over. I have re-uploaded the original video of the Delphi School denial. |
