psychedelic- samurai sword-wielder slain at scientology centre
Permalink  

A man was shot and killed after storming into and wielding two samurai swords at the Church of Scientology's Celebrity Centre in Hollywood. A security guard claimed his and his colleagues lives were threatened when he shot and killed the man and a surveillance tape corroborates this claim. The man had previously belonged to the church, but did not anymore. He was also from out of state and had recently bought the swords.

What do you think this man's intentions were? Do you think he was a viable threat? Were aliens involved? Your theories, please.

Whenever I'm around hollywood, I walk past the scientology center. How intense! I think all types of religions can create cult like atmosphere's and end up really poorly. Anyone coming at me with two samurai swords is a viable threat. The man either had completely lost in or was making a statement. I'll go with option one.

i think this man may have had something against the religion or whatever you call it. Maybe he was excommunicated and they told him that to return he must master the arts of the samauri, i mean scientology can be strange like that.

HAHAH! Oh Robert is a silly one.

Ugh, well I dont really know why people would choose a samurai sword to kill someone but I think this man probably had some type of intention of hurting someone. Weird.
