It's tough to say if he is a Scientologist himself, or if he was just hired by the church. But he was 100% working, and affiliated with them. At the second location (which was two hours, and several miles away from the first location), he was walking in and out of their complex a lot, and chatting with their guards.

Either way, it doesn't matter. The church wanted him at a peaceful protest with his gun. I (personally) support the right to bear arms, but flashing it around in the midst of a 500 person protest is never a good idea.
