    Gogetter from here on the jwd, finally got an article in our paper. If I remember correctly, she has tried several of times, but they wouldnt print anything that mentioned jehovahs witnesses, or if "kingdom hall" was mentioned.

    Im sure most people put two and two together, when "door to door" was mentioned anyway lol

    Way to go girl!

    That's great Buttlight. Surely people will be able to put two and two together and suss that it's the Witnesses that are being spoken about?

    Having said that, the fact that they're not mentioned by name could throw the local Dubs into a dilemma as to whether to defend themselves or not. Really good to see shunning get publicity like this. So many outsiders don't even know of the inhuman practice.

    Speaking of which, I would like a few good articles about the 16 abuse cases, to drop off to them also. They may print them as long as its "associated press?" Im not very familiar with that.......so if anyone can help, and give me the links, that would be great. I know there are several threads going on about it, but not sure which articles to give to the paper. We need to keep ever the smallest towns informed too!

    Great article......yep, the 'door to door' thing is a dead give away. As far as I'm concerned, the shunning policy that the Borg rigorously enforces is just as harmful as their 'no blood' policy and the more bad exposure they get, the better.
