X17 XCLUSIVE: On The Scene After Sword Wielding Man Is Shot To Death At The Scientology Center In Hollywood
Posted on Mon Nov 24, 2008 11:00 AM PDT
This sounds like something out of a movie, but according to The Associated Press, a security guard shot and killed a man wielding two Samurai swords this past Sunday at the Scientology Celebrity Centre in Hollywood.
Los Angeles Deputy Police Chief Terry S. Hara said the man approached three armed guards in the parking lot of the Scientology center, and the man was "close enough to hurt them" when one of the guards fired his weapon.
Surveillance tape shows that the swordsman arrived in a red convertible, and walked towards the guards with a sword in each hand. Hara said, "The evidence itself, it's very, very clear - the security officers were defending their safety."
And it looks like this may not have been the swordsman's first time at the center - Detective Wendi Berndt told the Los Angeles Times that the man was involved with the church a long time ago. "There was a previous relationship, but it is unclear to what degree," Berndt said.

"Hello, I am a $cientologist. My 'reasonable man standard' is based upon a paranoiac belief in space aliens and the absolutely justifiable sacrificing of however many it takes to defend Teegack against Xenu and the Marcabian Fleet!"
What's so very wrong with this picture and so dangerous as to be a matter of national security, public health, and safety?
