REQUEST FROM THE AUSSIE 7 RE: GLOBAL PROTEST!! URGENT

Carmel Underwood and the other Aussies and Sen. Xenophon are asking if everyone could write a petition and get some signatures at the Global Rally on Sunday. It is urgent because there will be a vote on MONDAY in Parliament on investigating the cult.

If we could get these petitions done and send them to Sen. Xenophon ASAP after the protests he could present them in Parliament Monday!!

ALSO if everyone could get some videos on YouTube of their protests Channel 7, 9, and 2 will be using them in their news Monday night. I will get the addresses for those channels and post them. All you have to do is let each channel know where to find them on youtube.


News contacts for videos:

I was given the wrong links to a couple of stations. Here are the right ones:

Channel 7 - http://au.news.yahoo.com/contact/

http://ninemsn.com.au/

http://www.abc.net.au/tv/

[Remember to post your video as soon as you can. Tomorrow is Monday in OZ and the stations want these for their news reports

Thanks guys. Sorry for all the confusion. Don't kill the messenger. ]


Maybe we could set up a thread here and you could post the videos here and we could contact the stations with one long list of videos. I'm not sure the best way to do this.

The petition should read something like this:



We call on the Australian Prime Minister and the Leader of the Opposition to support Senator Xenophon's call for an Inquiry into The Church of Scientology due to our awarness of flagrant financial, physical and/or psychological abuse at the hands of The Church of Scientology.



Not sure what the best way would be to get the petitions into Senator Xenophon's hands'

Here's the link. If you're faxing from outside Oz replace the 08 with 618

What do you guys think? Is this doable???

Re: REQUEST FROM THE AUSSIE 7 RE: GLOBAL PROTEST!! URGENT

Do these need to be Aussies only? US citizens asking Australia's parliament to do something we haven't even done is the ultmate PA.

Re: REQUEST FROM THE AUSSIE 7 RE: GLOBAL PROTEST!! URGENT

No, they want everyone to do this no matter where!

This is to show that a lot of people support Senator Xenophon and want the crimes exposed.

Re: REQUEST FROM THE AUSSIE 7 RE: GLOBAL PROTEST!! URGENT

I'm moist "down there"!

Re: REQUEST FROM THE AUSSIE 7 RE: GLOBAL PROTEST!! URGENT

For international protests, I suggest you put your location on the petition. Let's use the international interest in the Australian situation.

How do you get them to senator.xenophon@aph.gov.au ? Oh, like that.

Re: REQUEST FROM THE AUSSIE 7 RE: GLOBAL PROTEST!! URGENT

Anon delivers. Just like I knew you would. Imma dumb ass, huh. I was thinking scanning? no. faxing? no and so on.

Re: REQUEST FROM THE AUSSIE 7 RE: GLOBAL PROTEST!! URGENT

Can someone make a template for the petition (like the cover page and all subsequent pages) so that when Anons from around the world send them to Senator Xenophon, they have some uniformity?

It will make Anonymous look professional and like we've really got our shit together (at the very least in the lovely office stationery department lol).

Each cover page should feature a spot to be filled in with the name of each city where the signatures have been gathered. It should also include a preamble of what it is (a petition), why (to show global support for the Aussie inquiry), and who it's being presented to (Senator Xenophon).

Make it look all official and stuff. We don't want random scraps of amateur paper dumped in his lap.

Perhaps run this by Carmel Underwood for Auusie opinion?

Discuss

Re: REQUEST FROM THE AUSSIE 7 RE: GLOBAL PROTEST!! URGENT

Stay tuned for a better email address to send the petitions to.

Re: REQUEST FROM THE AUSSIE 7 RE: GLOBAL PROTEST!! URGENT

About the petition template...

Should it include the name and logo of Anonymous, or is that too limiting?

It might give the cult ammunition to point at the petition and say it came from "that" hate group and make the effort seem like something from the lunatic fringe.

Maybe don't feature the Anonymous name and logo, since we'll be collecting signatures from the general public who are not part of our group?

Make sense?

What does everyone think?

Re: REQUEST FROM THE AUSSIE 7 RE: GLOBAL PROTEST!! URGENT

i think leaving out "Anonymous" might be a good thing, don't forgat it was only a few weeks ago since the chans brought down the ausies prime ministers website over the NO CLEAN FEED thing

Re: REQUEST FROM THE AUSSIE 7 RE: GLOBAL PROTEST!! URGENT

petitions are gay

send the sonuvabitch a picture of you outside with a newspaper

Re: REQUEST FROM THE AUSSIE 7 RE: GLOBAL PROTEST!! URGENT

Australia's legal and political system is still very formal, I would suggest not commericalising it with logos etc, instead I would consider a letter format,

To the speakers and members of the Senate of the Commonwealth of Australia,

I, the undersigned, record and affirm my support for the actions suggested by Senator Xenophon in the senate, specifically, for a parliamentary inquiry in to the tax status of the Church of Scientology and for the referral of any evidence which may, on its face, indicate conduct which transgresses the laws of the Commonwealth of Australia and it's states to the police or other authority with juridstiction.

I affirm my support of the above actions by the recording of my details in the table below in this place of _____(CITY)___ in the state of ___(STATE)____ in ___(COUNTRY)____ on this day the___(DAY eg 15th)___ in the month of ___month___ , 2009

Then a table which has NAME ADDRESS and SIGNATURE

By including a date in the top paragraph it indicates that this is a sample of only the people who were able to access the petition on this day

Re: REQUEST FROM THE AUSSIE 7 RE: GLOBAL PROTEST!! URGENT

and its important that each page has the text of the petition, not just the front page

Re: REQUEST FROM THE AUSSIE 7 RE: GLOBAL PROTEST!! URGENT

So does that mean every person who signs the petition has their own page (as opposed to just a list of signatures)?

I think this is an important distinction that should be explained to Anon as a whole.

In light of the formal legal and political system in Australia, it might be better to let each person have their own page to fill out instead of what will surely turn out to be an unsightly list of signatures.

Thoughts...?

Re: REQUEST FROM THE AUSSIE 7 RE: GLOBAL PROTEST!! URGENT

ANONYMOUS !!!! TO THE CLIFFS !!!!!

Re: REQUEST FROM THE AUSSIE 7 RE: GLOBAL PROTEST!! URGENT

No not individual pages, an excel type table with NAME ADDRESS SIGNATURE is fine, all im saying is each new page with a new table must have the full description

Re: REQUEST FROM THE AUSSIE 7 RE: GLOBAL PROTEST!! URGENT

edit: I spose if you replace 'I, the undersigned' with 'We, the undersigned' its clearer

lemme put together a .doc quickly

Re: REQUEST FROM THE AUSSIE 7 RE: GLOBAL PROTEST!! URGENT

Carmel says it's great that you want to make it pretty!

Re: REQUEST FROM THE AUSSIE 7 RE: GLOBAL PROTEST!! URGENT

Thought that myself

Re: REQUEST FROM THE AUSSIE 7 RE: GLOBAL PROTEST!! URGENT

Ha! You rock, TinyDancer. I was just going to mention that. lol


I WILL HAVE A MORE PRIVATE E-MAIL ADDRESS FOR SEN. XENOPHON LATER.

Re: REQUEST FROM THE AUSSIE 7 RE: GLOBAL PROTEST!! URGENT

Guidelines for petitions for the Senate can be found here , http://www.aph.gov.au/senate/pubs/guides/briefno21.pdf

I would suggest something like this:
RapidShare: 1-CLICK Web hosting - Easy Filehosting

Re: REQUEST FROM THE AUSSIE 7 RE: GLOBAL PROTEST!! URGENT

dunno if we (here at my spot on the landscape) can stage a protest this sunday, is video material from last sunday also usable?

Re: REQUEST FROM THE AUSSIE 7 RE: GLOBAL PROTEST!! URGENT

Still formal, but tighter and to the point...

FULL NAME - ADDRESS - SIGNATURE

Re: REQUEST FROM THE AUSSIE 7 RE: GLOBAL PROTEST!! URGENT

They call it "down under", moran.

Lots of typos there.

This next version suffers from them too:

Also, "Inquiry" probably shouldn't be capitalized (just a guess).

Re: REQUEST FROM THE AUSSIE 7 RE: GLOBAL PROTEST!! URGENT

So - I created OZ Senate Petition - Why We Protest Wiki using the 'later' version with the typos fixed to start with.

Let's get it right - lets get something reasonably consistent that folk can use on Sunday...

Edit away - but let's keep it tight and formal.

Re: REQUEST FROM THE AUSSIE 7 RE: GLOBAL PROTEST!! URGENT

In terms of 'effect' - the number of cities and countries is more important than the number of signatures.

Saying "I have a petiton from people all over the world" is gonna carry more weight than "I have a petition from 1000 people globally" - If YOU can get A HANDFUL of signatures from YOUR city, DO IT

Names and addresses will obviously be public - but the cult will never know which signatures are from your cell, or which you harvested on the street. You'll still be anonymous if you sign it.

So FFS at the very least try and get three or four sigs from your local cell! (but better, do that and get a few randoms as well)

If Xenophon can legitamately say 'individuals in several dozen cities around the world have today added their signatures to a petition ....' it'll have some effect!

Re: REQUEST FROM THE AUSSIE 7 RE: GLOBAL PROTEST!! URGENT

You're what now? Signing a petition? With your real name? So it matters more in a faraway country than if it was a fake name? So they can check the voter roles to make sure your signature is real? Like how meaningful petitions work? Even though you wear a mask so they don't find out who you are? And you may as well be an illiterate African nomad for all your voice matters as a human?

Re: REQUEST FROM THE AUSSIE 7 RE: GLOBAL PROTEST!! URGENT

Reading further into the rules - petitions must be consistent in their wording.

But electronic petitons are not treated differently

Therefore I propose that about 9am New Zealand time on Sunday we 'lock' the wording as it stands at that point, and set up an online petition with EXACTLY THE SAME words.

This should allow both hardcopy and online signatories be merged by whatever time such 'international' petition is lodged in the Senate on Monday Canberra time.

Re: REQUEST FROM THE AUSSIE 7 RE: GLOBAL PROTEST!! URGENT

Considering how the cult is garnering and using illiterate folks in the third world to promote their cause, getting some honest, comprehending signatures of same would be no bad thing.

Not that I'm saying that's real - just matching your hyperbole.

If the Senator want's (for now), the Senator shall get.

And I'm not sure your talking about literacy is really helpful - Sentences matter as much (or more) than words - I had to read your post three times. I'm still not entirely sure what point your EIGHT (presumably) rhetorical questions were trying to make. Lol.

Re: REQUEST FROM THE AUSSIE 7 RE: GLOBAL PROTEST!! URGENT

Can we finalize the wording of the petition ASAP?

Melbourne Anonymous here, we have our Raid tomorrow. We need it finalized so that we can print out petitions and have them on hand.

Re: REQUEST FROM THE AUSSIE 7 RE: GLOBAL PROTEST!! URGENT

Problem in the US isn't awake yet - I've made a few tweaks to OZ Senate Petition - Why We Protest Wiki after reading the Senate rules...

I'd just say make any required edits, leave it as long as you can, and let us know here what final text you used.

Re: REQUEST FROM THE AUSSIE 7 RE: GLOBAL PROTEST!! URGENT

it's "jurisdiction", not "juridstiction".

Re: REQUEST FROM THE AUSSIE 7 RE: GLOBAL PROTEST!! URGENT

Very well, I'm not exactly the type of girl who sleeps. If we've got it sorted in the next 12 hours, that would be fantabulous.

Only difference is ours will be dated 21st.

Re: REQUEST FROM THE AUSSIE 7 RE: GLOBAL PROTEST!! URGENT

^^This. We need a decent online petition as well.

Re: REQUEST FROM THE AUSSIE 7 RE: GLOBAL PROTEST!! URGENT

These words don't match. Fix that and the docu will be error-free.

Re: REQUEST FROM THE AUSSIE 7 RE: GLOBAL PROTEST!! URGENT

Changed to 'for' in both cases - also included a new sentence with Xenuphon's 'worldwide' quote, basically to help with those who might feel uncomfortable signing something directed at a different jurisdiction.

Re: REQUEST FROM THE AUSSIE 7 RE: GLOBAL PROTEST!! URGENT

Splendid. Unzip and prepare for reward.

Re: REQUEST FROM THE AUSSIE 7 RE: GLOBAL PROTEST!! URGENT

A good place to hit this weekend for signatures is a shopping mall - lots of holiday shopping/browsing going on.

Re: REQUEST FROM THE AUSSIE 7 RE: GLOBAL PROTEST!! URGENT

internets?
