Shutting Down Tranquility Bay - URGENT!

Forget it anonymous, the PURE supporters who were at the conference don't want their identities known on this forum. Why that is, you'll have to ask their unofficial spokesperson, Karen Z. I have a feeling she might know but most likely, won't say for fear of the consequences for speaking "out of group" :rofl:
One thing for certain, according to Wes Fager's report, Laurie Berg was NOT the only anti-WWASPS crusader in attendance.

Karen Z will they let you speak out? Will they allow you to give out their names? I would think if they were standing up for a good cause and had no shame, they would be more than willing to say who they were.

FYI
If it matters, I attended the conference! I sent my son to a wwasps program about 14 months ago & removed him after two months. Before, I am accused of everything under the sun by a select few; our family chose wwasps from the glossy brochures & literature that was provided to us via teen help. My son, also choose casa through the propaganda furnished to him by teen help. He was NOT hand cuffed, escorted or pulled by the hair to Ensinada, MX.
I didn't like the communication skills associated with the director at casa nor the staff?s. After investigating wwasps & unveiling their so called ?program? & pyramid scheme, among other concerns which have been turned over to the class action law suit attorneys. That?s MY story & I?m sticking to it!!!
I am under the impression that quite a few people on this forum DO NOT personally know what this law suit is about!
It has nothing to do with PURE? To my knowledge & my attorney?s it never has involved PURE? Who on this board brought the accusation up between this class action & PURE?
I did write an article concerning MY experience with wwasps. MY concerns & the article are posted on PURE's website. Does that make ME a PURE support? Tell me... I have since been contacted & spoken with many parents due to my article posted on the web. This same article has been furnished to ISAC?s last month when I became aware of their experience in this so called ?freedom fight?.
I believe that allot of the anon postings are the same 3-4 individuals who can not seem to see the light of this industries dilemma. They miss the point when it comes to tactics, strategic planning & flying under the radar as others have mentioned.
Everyone wants to gripe & complain about, who, what, when, where, ME...ME...ME...ME... It's all about them & not their children!!! Otherwise, everyone could join in an intelligent conversation. I've bashed some people out here as well, but at least, I like, Carey can put a signature to my posts. I WILL give her credit for at least identifying herself, unlike others!!!
Why did SAFE & ISAC have a falling out? Just some questions for the board, I?m sure I?ll get some type of response. Why can?t everyone on this board become goal oriented & team up against the ?abusive programs?? I was at the conference & even then there was separation between ALL parties. I was labeled a ?wwaspie? by the SAFE people. Why, I don?t know, I was there to find out what SAFE was all about? I was there to find out how SAFE was addressing state & federal laws pertaining to these child warehouses & their owners.
As far as the speakers went, everyone who took the stage was a hero in MY mind. I was very impressed with Rick Ross. Talk about knowledge!!! This guy has been there & done it as far as I?m concerned. The next person to stand out was Wes Fager. WOW, what an enthusiastic spokes person with real life experiences pertaining to ?Straights?!!! If you ever have the opportunity to hear Wes speak?RUN down to where ever it is, you will not be disappointed. Just to inform everyone of my exposure to this industry, I was clueless that SO MANY organizations existed!!! Again, ALL of the speakers where great in their own fields & with their personal accounts of incidents.
I hope that answers ALL of ANON?S concerns!!!
Regards,
Lee

Let's cut to the chase here. Were the elusive Sheff & Berryman in attendance? That's obviously what people are wondering. So how 'bout it Lee, did Batman and Robin show up? My guess is they did and not without their entourage of teen-help busters. ZAP! POW! BAM!
