I wrote some interesting info about "mind control" harassment by neighborhood activists back in 2001. It is archived in some places. To find it Google: "Von Kidd" "Mind control". In the results the one at buffalo.edu is heavily edited, the one at Topica directory is not. The info about how the perps hide their signal is incorrect. Some of the links don't work anymore, use the link's topic as a search term. All the info from the links and more -including reliable, verifiable documentation from the media- is at: WantToKnow.Info. On their topic bar click mind control. In Freedom and Liberty, Von Kidd Off topic, but still “mind control”.

Sweeney's operating basis seems to be like this: • Find a few naysayers on the Internet, interview them for some juicy, if unsubstantiated allegations. • Take the claims that can now be attributed to a source and then repeatedly ask “questions” of your “target” prefaced with “Some people say….” • It’s a job made easy when the topic is something people aren’t familiar with, but would be merely ridiculous otherwise. A simple example proves the point: look up an anti-semitic website, interview the people who make the outrageous claims and then seek out Jews to ask each one “some people say you control all the commerce and banking in the world”, or “some people say you are the messengers of the devil,” or “some people say all Jews are greedy, selfish criminals.” Don’t bother to look at the practices or activities of the Jews, just fire away with the accusations. Of course, the vast majority of the population seeing this would dismisses it as the most vile sort of propaganda. Yet, this is precisely what Sweeney and Mole did with the Scientology program. They did get a reaction. What they didn’t get was a story that enlightened anyone. I do understand why Scientology employed their own investigative reporters and published their own program now.
