<\/a>I’m a bit surprised I haven’t stuck this link on the sidebar yet: http:\/\/www.justiceforjermiah.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I still haven’t gotten around to compiling news articles of their 1980s California ballot initiatives, which would have made public the names of AIDs patients. I will do that eventually, jib-jabbing between my joking and seriousness looks at LaRouche and his followers… replete with that occasional “Here’s something odd they’re trying to do with a wikipedia entry”.<\/p>\n

Anyway… from a “Chardonnay”:<\/p>\n

I hate Larouche and his followers. They are a fucking cult. My friend
\nwho is 25, dropped out of college and joined them and in doing so, they
\ntold him to sever ties with me because I was not “open to their ideas”.
\nThe way they go about doing things is very erratic also. They disturb
\nclasses at the local college with their regular “demonstrations” and
\nthey go so far as to harass students who don’t take their literature or
\nwho refuse to make a donation. I was one of them. I was headed to
\nclass and a girl stopped me. She was very nice and started talking to me
\nabout the economy and all these paranoid conspiracies. I was polite and
\nlistened but when I declined to give her my info and take a pamphlet
\nshe got nasty. As I walked away, she said “so you’re a guns n’ roses
\nfan, huh? That would explain the skanky look”, I was wearing a GNR shirt,
\nyou see. They are very good at making insulting below the belt remarks.
\nSince then, there have been many students who have complained to the
\ndean and asked him to prevent them from coming onto the campus, but like
\ncockroaches, they just keep coming back hoping to find someone else to
\nbrainwash. That being said, my very good friend simply disappeared out
\nof my life and his parents are also quite concerned because he also cut
\nties with them at the Larouchies suggestion that they where trying to
\n“disorganize” him. Larouche himself is a paranoid, psychotic, fascist. I
\nwould advise people to not even pay attention to them in the streets.<\/p>\n

Oh, I almost forgot to mention that they hold these “cadre schools”
\nwhich is a trip they take up to the mountains for a weekend full of
\n“enlightening, earth shattering ideas”. Anyway, my pal dragged me to one of
\nthese once and all they do is talk about the golden ration, the
\ndoubling of the square, the British royal family (it’s so funny, they claim
\nthe queen is a drug smuggler lol), and all these conspiracies and how
\nLarouche is the only one who can make a difference. After this cadre
\nschool, I NEVER wanted to know about them ever again and I along with five
\nother people took off. When they started talking about rock music, one
\nof the members said that he had hoped they’d make John Lennon’s day of
\nassasination a holiday, we said screw it and drove off in my car. One
\nguy tried to stop us and told us “if you leave, you will have the
\ndeaths of hundreds of palestinian children on your conscience.” This people
\nare crazy and they use cult tactics to recruit people. I strongly suggest everyone to not even bother with them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
