StL Anon had a good showing for the Global Protest against Scientology.

As it turns out, there were also 200+ demonstrators gathered in the Delmar Loop for a pro-Palestinian march, as well as several pro-Israel counter-demonstrators.

There were plenty of cops in riot gear (as compared to the two off-duty cops the Org hires to keep an eye on us).

A small group of us ventured into the Loop to investigate.

We struck up some good conversations, and handed out flyers.

We remained neutral while talking with both groups, but decided it was best to return to our own protest as the tension increased.

Of course, we couldn't leave without a rickroll.

After briefly checking out (and rickrolling) the Gaza and Israel rallies, we re-joined the other Anons at our montly protest, keeping enturbulation steady, across from the org.

Later on, another group of Anons returned to the Loop as the Gaza demonstrators began marching down Delmar. We handed out information to several passerby, a couple of which joined us at our protest. One woman shared her story of a relative with mental illness who was harmed by his time in Scientology (some Anons have been protesting Scientology's CCHR, which has set up a temporary display at Jamestown Mall - see youtube.com/watch?v=FjJ8-7sClAY).

Later on, there was an unrelated incident of the riot cops taking down 2 Gaza supporters in the Loop - see youtube.com/watch?v=LnCTuLNP1xE.
