Code official here, though from another state. This is definitely illegal. In a perfect world this video would go to the code enforcement officer or fire marshal/official and be dealt with, but my guess is the city doesn’t want to deal with it so they’re just going to ignore because politics. It’s pretty cut and dry (assuming they use ICC as a base which most states do) so I hope I’m wrong and they enforce this. Also, fire inspections generally have to be done once a year or at least once every 3 year so if they’re being done, Scientology is moving those beds in an out of the room for the fire inspections. Logistically they’d have to go to their main contact for the property and go from there which may be a bit of a pain, but you are absolutely correct that this is a code violation (particularly fire code) and if it were in my jurisdiction it would need to be dealt with immediately.
It’s Florida so I imagine a combination of money and young girls are used to distract the politicians and code enforcement officials from protecting life.
Maybe you could reach out in an official capacity to Clearwater code enforcement. Itd be taken more seriously than coming from us.
Clearwater, FL municipal government is infiltrated with 'fellow travelers.'
Maybe there "Donating" money to certain people/places so it gets overlooked. I'm sure there we'll known to the higher-ups Mayor/city council. Just my opinion
Where?
As a former staff member. This is true. I was in PAC land base. Too many people in one room. Absolutely horrible.
Why don’t you report this to the fire department since you actually lived there?
Same thing on the Flagship, but I never heard anyone complain. We just thought that was life onboard a ship. You don't think you suffer until you think you are a victim.
How are people this dumb?
Are you declared an SP now since you posted this? I'm curious about your experience. I'm clearwater resident and I'm so fascinated with this.
@@robertdouglas8895it takes a good dose of hypnosis to consider that living on a ship, i personally went on the hunt with sea shepherd on their ships and i can confirm although you have to discipline yourself but your living and sleeping conditions are not the one of people who choose to be both scientology and their own minds prisoners
sorry my English
Makes me sick on how scientology management treats the "students" like slaves, but nothing is too good for the celebs such as Tom Cruise, John Travolta and Priscilla Presley.
Well it’s cuz they are “Slaves” for them. And those celebs are the Master’s of the slave ownership. This is so Fkd up I can’t even put it into words and don’t even get me started with LE and DOJ they to are owners by doing absolutely nothing and allowing this horror to continue. 😡
The fact that Scientology is so "blatantly elitist", should discourage any new person from joining this organization.
The celebs are money on legs, and bring in others who can be fleeced just by their being connected with the organization. And of course, Danny Masterson, convicted serial rapist, also affects others' impressions of the organization -- and "that 70s show" which I could never warm up to and has plummeted in my estimation due to his participation. Celebs can be a power-drink or poison, like Charles Manson's scientology membership which the organization has downplayed into near obscurity.
Fire dept could probably shut them down tonight if they did a surpise inspection.
Yup!
The cult my parents sent me to in South America had housing just like this. I was on the third top bunk and fell out, hitting my head on the nightstand on the way down. The Dr. examining me after the fall, and subsequent concussion said my head hit in such a way that ½ inch over it would have killed me. THESE ARE HUMAN RIGHTS VIOLATIONS 😮
Can you tell me why people put up with it? Why do they continue allowing themselves to be abused? What precisely are they getting in return?
@@sugarpuddin they don't understand there is another way, in some cases.
Well in my case I was 11 years old in a foreign country. Not sure how many 11 year olds have options in such circumstances.
@@sugarpuddin For a few reasons.
1. They are from elsewhere and generally too nervous to rock the boat.
2. They are cult devotees and tend to do as they are told.
3. They do not wish to risk their standing in the cult.
4. The obedience and fear factor has been drummed into them, as with any high control cult.
5. Cognitive dissonance about their own situation. Again typical cult behaviour pattern.
Very few will complain until something starts to wake up in them. If they do complain, like the nail that is sticking up, they will be hammered down into position again. The places these people are sent from would not necessarily be just anyone. They would tend to be reluctant to send people who would make too much noise about it.
Generally it is all about the cult's control mechanism and the compliance of those who only want to stay in their favour that not enough people will rock the boat. My guess is if they did something about it, the cult would jack the costs up exponentially to suit.
So sorry you had to go through this! 🙏🏻♥️🙏🏻
You Go Aaron! Please...keep exposing this horrible cult and all that promote it! And thank you to all that are sending you this information to Aaron to put forth for all to hear and see! May your lives be blessed! 💕
Thank you
Our city has a code that only two adults or one adult and child can share 150 square foot bedroom.
@@marthasimons7940 Well...sounds like Scientology is breaking the code!!!
@@LadyPamela63 I'm not sure, but if they were breaking a city code which called for an investigation...being how secretive Scientology is the FBI could be called in. One never knows!
@@LadyPamela63 We can only hope...for those living in those conditions anyway. 🙏
I can’t wrap my brain around the reality of how those staff members don’t take one look at that room and say oh hell no! And walk out!
If you want the City of Clearwater to do something about those grotesque living conditions, simply use the photos of that lodging to create a “Welcome to Clearwater” tourism pamphlet, and drop a few of ‘em at City Hall & the local tourism bureau. If there isn’t quick action after that, you know none of your elected officials give a darn.
A few years ago, I stayed at a similar type of motel in both style and age. I went to plug my computer in behind the little refrigerator and there were extension cords plugged into extension cords for all of the electrical needs of the room. It was a typical octopus of a wiring horror show in an otherwise modest normal motel room. I complained to no results or even a sympathetic voice cause for concern. When I got home from my trip about a week later and watching a crime show where a fire ensued, it reminded me of that wiring mess in that motel room. I called the fire marshal for the county who insisted to me I wasn't over reacting and if one motel room was set up for a disaster, how many more of their rooms were poised for a similar fate. Two weeks later the motel was not only closed but permanently shut down. Maybe the Clearwater officials aren't the ones to plead to. No one knows how a city official might be connected to Scientology's game. All one needs to ask themselves is how the council has treated Scientology's unbridled growth and purchase of their downtown with little concern. Maybe other organizations need to be contacted. If 10 people are in one room, can you imagine all the other fire safety infractions awaiting the fire marshal?
Sorry, I would guess like all governments, Clearwater's is on the take
Exactly. Notify the fire dept
Yep, you're absolutely 💯 correct! Misgavige should be ashamed and dismayed by this, but I bet it's him doing all the penny pinching to keep himself in the lifestyle to which he's become accustomed to.
Good points. Clearwater Beach has taken notice of Scientologists buying up property adjacent to the tax-free ' Church grounds ' . The City gets little tax revenue out of thier property..Real estate developers have dangled multimillion dollar deals in front of City officials- if only those pesky Church properties weren't in the way of Progress..
So now there's a war between greedy City / developers and Scientology..
Could this eventually escalate into an FBI raid/ WACO style tragedy ?
A room is a room. They're smart enough to get the electricity right. And since people aren't supposed to be connected or distracted, they won't plug 10 appliances on the same spot.
But if they ask food stamps or financial help to pay a slumlord, that can be discussed. Only illegal migrants pay for such conditions or way worse (in terms of security), and the state cann't help them. But for those who are helped, The payers need to know what for and inspect. You do it once a year for restaurants, don't you ? It's a health problem. 10 people, one "bathroom", one window. i"m sorry to say, but prosecute the landlord or stop helping the people who feed him. Solutiion 2 is always preferred. It could sway half-believers or get some a free ride.
I slept in a dorm with about 55 other inmates at Baltimore city jail Aaron. Not only did we make more money then those Scientology students. Our sleeping quarters and living area were compared to those screenshots apples and oranges. We were not treated like shit unless inmates did wrong. For 4 and a half months I can honestly say the conditions in Baltimore city jail were better than the Scientology student hotel is.
Thanks for sharing Matthew and glad you're out
All of these people are making the free will choice to be there. It's arrogant that you think you know what they need and they don't.
You also chose your life. You were not a victim. We all make the best of what we've made so far.
The best comment I've read! What a comparison of your experience/treatment was better, now that is really saying something.
@@robertdouglas8895 I don't see any arrogance in my comment sir. I just wanted people to have something to compare their living situation too. The only arrogance I've ever shown was I felt I was better at being an addict. I was a victim, you have no idea bud. I also made that choice to be a victim. I'm not asking for pity or anything I just want people to know.
@@matthewbrig5614 When you know you are making the choice that brought you to where you are, you are victim to no one. Victims think their lives happen by the choice of other people.
Rinder talks about dorms like this in his book. Its crazy to think they still use these triple bunk beds he described from his teen years. He described how you couldn't even sit up in bed. Not even enough room to flip over without getting out of bed.
I hope whoever sent you that footage is aware of the Aftermath Foundation!
In this day and age it’s incredible how they still appear to catch people who are vulnerable to be pulled in
My understanding is that they don't: almost all of their current members were born into the cult.
They prey on the homeless , who’s more vulnerable than the homeless.
They catch people by using the techniques of the devil. This is why Scientology "works." Hubbard was greatly influenced by Aleister Crowly. (Read Bent Corydon's "L. Ron Hubbard, Messiah or Madman?"
2 years ago with the shutdowns & all, they couldve RAKED IN desperate people.
@@1man1501ig Not so. I was exposed to the cult in the late 60's. Top-name, established, musicians and writers were getting "pulled in." (Please see my earlier comment.)
This is disgusting. Why would anyone do this?
The correct word for your sentence is spelled "would", not wood. The word wood refers to trees abd things made from trees.
@@lisamarieashby2523 your right I didn't see it thanks.
@@lisamarieashby2523 And the word is AND not abd since we are correcting people on here.
As long as people keep “volunteering” for this, it will likely continue because they are considered a church but you are very right about not valuing their employees and I would say the same of every Scientologist that benefits from the work of the Sea Org members. They are all guilty of the abuse.
Linda. Lets join, record the conditions and then leave. Then we will call the press, get an attorney and sue the crap out of them. 😆
That's just it though, a vast majority of these members are children unfortunate enough to be born into this crap. They have kids as young as 7 and 8 years old working 15 hour days on one meal and 5hrs sleep, its abhorrent. Children cannot give informed consent, their parents do for them, so it's not just adults volunteering I can assure you my friend.
I see this among all cults: Messianic leadership that secretly loath their needy followers.
They aren't volunteers: if the outer orgs don't pay FSO, then the "volunteers" need to work off the rent. Doesn't Florida have an implied warranty of habitability whenever money changes hands for real estate or visitor accommodations?
@@andrewfoster1641 - the dupe followers are not about to complain. The jail cell door is open - they are too frightened to step out into freedom and self reliance
Press your local politicians, and never let go of that pressure. There’s got to be people that serve/work for the local Clearwater govt. that agrees with you. My biggest question is How is this not human trafficking?
I am so hopeful for the day that these evil scamologists are taken down, and a lot of them are sent to jail...absolutely disgusting!!!!
That would be great if they were taken down but they’ve been left alone for so long I’m not sure if they’ll ever be shut down. Really sad.
@@cotati76 sHUT DOWN? NO ! Neither would it be right, for Americans. But kill the religious status and soon enough weirdos R Us will be a small community like many others
@@auntisthenes2754 you’re right. I agree.
@@cotati76 Aaron is very much on the case; the aftermath may not have a lot of money, but people need shelters and jobs, ASAP. They're working on those practical aspects.
@@auntisthenes2754 they’re doing good work.
The better question is why would anyone stay in that room?! Why would they stay in Scientology seeing how members are treated?
Mind control
Here’s the problem… people CHOOSE to continue to support the organization. Until they stop, there’s nothing that will ever happen.
😱😳 Bro! You can't even pack that many into a six-man cell in jail! Unbelievable
Hostels are doing that now. So are shelters in L A. People are making money off of this.
The International Property Maintenance Code designates how much square footage each person is to have.
From my reading of it, not less than 50 square feet of floor area for each occupant
One stated above they let them do this they changed the code because they only slept there ! Allegedly . Imagine a city that does that ? Changes a fire code to accommodate this ?
@@peggypasson8794 that would be very revealing if they did that
No way! I’d be gone….would never sleep or live in those conditions!
💯💯
Per Pinellas County, “Every dwelling unit shall contain at least 150 square feet of floor space for the first occupant thereof and at least 100 additional square feet of floor area per additional occupant.”
Wow!
I can't wait for courts documents to be released 😍.....
Which ones
@@GrowingUpInScientology lol right, God said all will be revealed so I'd say all of them great question thanks 😊 👍
I’m sure they are breaking all kinds of fire code having that many people crammed into a tiny hotel.
This is why we love u Aaron!! 💙 Im so glad your bringing this to the light,as these conditions are deplorable and unbelievable for any human to live in,because of some wacky organization with the money they have. Its just unfathomable!! Call these dirtbags out👎🏻!! What your doing Aaron is going to make a difference in these people lives,keep up the amazing hard work!! 🙌🏻👏🏻
The City of Clearwater isn't going to do a damned thing. If they were they would have already done it. Clearwater is bought and paid for by Scientology.
I used to live at Hacienda gardens, but everyone knew the student motels were the WORST. haha but then I was introduced to the cockroach room where people who wanted to leave were rehomed while they were sec checked….
That sounds horrific....
There must be a serious bed bug problem at all those Clearwater motel hells.
Every time I hear “Sea Org” I can’t stop laughing. There is something about a bunch of adults wearing pretend navy uniforms and medals that tickles me.
Satisfaction is an understatement of how it will feel when david miscavaige meets karma.
101 thousand subscribers! Congratulations Aaron. You and your solid information about the horrid organization called Scientology did it 🎉. Keep up the solid work and let’s hope this cult dies soon.
🙏🏻🙏🏻
101k subscribers equals 101k people who tell others about scientology and those tell someone, etc., etc. etc. means that, HOPEFULLY, with the help of others publicly exposing scientology's vile and heinous workings and abuses, means that scientology's days of existing are decreasing everyday and the implosion is near. YAY!
Hopefully that also means that people are warned about how cults in general (doesn't matter if it's a mega church or any church, extremist orgs.,etc.) because there are so many. Saving those from joining and help others escape and help to destroy cults as much as possible.
You idiots have hoped for That for almost 2 decades Now. Its not gonna happen. And neither do Aaron and the other idiots like him Want it to cause then they would have nothing to do after. They live and breathe Scientology Even more then Scientologists does themselves.
Scientology is not the cause. It's a symptom.
Modern day slavery exists in scientology. How stupid are these people for allowing themselves be treated like this?
The question is why would any grown adults subject themselves to that environment
Aaron provides plenty of videos about this but a summary - many are 2nd generation so raised in it, have no education, aren't getting paid a wage so no money & their family may disown them if they leave.
That is "the" question. I ask: How many other organizations, families and governments do the same? Where the people cling like children to their messianic hero's - Whilst their benefactors distain their needy worshipers!
They prey on vulnerable people
Brainwashing and otber cult tactics.
They're convinced they are paying their dues.
I grew up in a third world country and I've never seen something like this___I cannot believe this stuff is happening!
I really appreciate you continuing to bring light to this issue. I lived a few doors down from there on Venetian for years. They have always been austere and frankly creepy. Even if traveling by boat around the backside all that can been seen is bunk beds or sheet-like curtains. Plus the constant “No Vacancy” sign it’s very Bates Motel. Broke my heart in previous videos that you discribed start having to train overnight and sleep during the day. Especially heinous to treat elderly staff that way. Reminded me of Ramina’s story working in the kitchen until her body gave out. Thank you for all you do
How's Ramina?
I love that you have people on the inside sending you information. Yet, I'm sad that they are there and aren't able or aren't ready to get out of Scientology.
Everyone there makes the decision to be there.
Thinking you and Aaron know what they need better than they do is arrogance.
@@robertdouglas8895 Do you feel better about yourself when you insult others?
@@robertdouglas8895 are you a scientologist?
@@danaeads919 An insult to one person can be a wake up call to another.
@@agirlisnoone5953 I was Sea Org '74-'76. I'm here to help people get beyond their complaining to actually learn from their experience and be better for it.
Omg how the HELL does a PERSON fit in that middle bunk?!!! 😮😮😮
This is deplorable in all sense of the word! This cannot be legal, right!?!
Thanks again Aaron for the hard work you do so the world can see what this multi billion dollar cult does to human beings.
So very sad 😔
11 people in 400 sq feet??
What were the person/footage conditions in The Hole?
Good question. But they slept on the floor in the Hole. No bunk beds.
That's odd, they don't show this side of Scientology in all those "Curious?" ads that I've been getting on CZcams the last few months.
Exactly
It shows them opening orgs in Copenhagen, Madrid, Mexico City, Spiritual Headquarters (Flag?), along with the "800 orgs that scientology supports" and on and on, so it's not a lack of money for sure.
When my son returned from Flag as an Outer Org Trainee living in those conditions, he brought home with him a contagious skin condition that spread to us and several relatives. One older relative required surgery to handle the condition.
Simply dreadful way to treat anybody. Hotels I have stayed in wanted me to rent another room when I stayed with my 4 children, and the twins were in a playpen.
Exactly
If this is how they treat their followers, i can only imagine the other disgusting things they hide.
I own a 480ft2 studio and 160ft of that is terrace and people tell me they don't know how I live on such a small patch. By myself. Imagine putting 11 people in there. I'm perfectly content with me and the cat by ourselves btw. But honestly, I don't even invite more than 3 people to my home at 1 time because it'd be too crowded.
Keep up the good work Aaron. I hope you're right and that the government takes away the tax exemption this greedy cult enjoys.
I would feel claustrophobic sleeping in one of those beds. I would lose my mind
Damn right! I started feeling claustrophobic just looking at the pictures!
Amen to that.
$5000 for a suit for Miscavige? I thought clothing in the children's department was generally cheaper.
"and 1000 dollar custom made shoes", well yeah, it's expensive to get adult dress shoes in kid sizes.
Omg I lived at the Clipper motel for almost three years when I was an OOT😁 Love your channel btw, your videos help me a lot. Even though it's been many years since I left Scientology, there are still ghosts of the traumas I went through 🙏🙏🙏🐆🐒🐢🦉
So did I! 😊
Forgiveness will let you put it behind you as a necessary learning experience without blaming anyone. We all get the life we ask for. Ask and you shall receive.
We had bunks like that on the Flagship. Moved into the Ft Harrison and lived in spacious hotel rooms. I left a couple months later, not because of the accommodations.
11 grown adults to a room?! OH HELL NO!! Rehabs and hospitals for mentally unwell people aren't even that bad!!
I live in 398 sq ft- alone- and it is enough but it is small. That’s deplorable conditions for 11 people.
Those conditions are deplorable. I don't understand why people do that to others or that people in those conditions put up with that. I'm sure most of them grew up with that so they think it's normal, but someone in that group thinks it's wrong. The person who took the videos must think it's wrong. My God, how does the person in the middle bunk get in and out not to mention turn in their sleep. Please keep us posted about this.
I am kind of stuck on the health hazard implications. Imagine someone showed up with omicron or some other respiratory virus . Geez. I am shaking my head so hard I’m getting whiplash
This video demonstrates just what a low IQ these scientologists have
It isn’t how much money you have, but how you use it that shows what your moral values really are.
They are doing it willingly. Nobody is forcing them
Why don’t they leave this prison?
Great info. Thank you.
And may The Father God bless your sweet little baby girl and you.
🙏🏻🙏🏻
In rural Lincolnshire here in England we have many houses of multiple occupants, but often they are shut down and condemned by fire safety in case there was a fire because of their lack of chance in even getting out due to overcrowding. Don’t your city fire people need to visit every year and sign it off for safety?
THIS IS HORRENDOUS!
SHAME ON YOU,
MR. KEEBLER ELF MAN!
-San Franciscofan girl
Thing is, they use David Miscaviges' size to calculate how many people can be squeezed into one room.
I’m glad you made this. I know 2 people getting their Flag outer Org training and I can tell they’re secretly miserable
Thank for exposing these conditions and for challenging the leaders of Clearwater to thoroughly exposing code living conditions!!
God forbid-should there be a fire...maybe that's what it will take...absolutely heartbreaking...and SICK...
Have lived here in Pinellas my whole life. I have driven by Hacienda Gardens frequently for years and I can definitely tell you that place NEEDS A CLOSER INSPECTION!! It's like a prison there.
What do you notice?
There is definitely a double standard in based in those pictures. The people who work so hard are treated horribly while DM lives the high life. Thank you for showing us the proof.
I hope Mark Bunker sees this and can do something about it or share it with someone who can.
👍🏻👍🏻
That place would be a bedbug nightmare.
I lived at Hacienda Gardens for EPF. Bunk beds, many women in apartment. Shower was flooding into bedroom no hot water. Then hot water got fixed. I got my money out to buy a pan so flooding into shag rug would stop. Muster up in the morning. Painting crew and dish crew for dining hall during my stay. Other projects for special events and carry rows of chairs out of auditorium. Mind over matter lifting heavy things. Backbreaking. Children working way into night. Immigrants on minister visa. Adolescents sent like reform school if misbehaving by their Scientologist parents.
Horrifying.
I don't have an issue with a bunk bed, but look how little space there is between them.
Their heads have to be a minimum 4 ft away from the toilet in a jail to pass federal standards so I'm still pretty sure they're breaking some laws 😂
7:57 “you can measure someone’s values by their behavior.” Truer words have never been said. 💯
Remember how he treated his own father.
Aren't you afraid that the very detailed description of where the person taking the video sleeps will highlight their identity?
Shared hardship creates a sense of comraderie. Apart from just being cheap, I would assume that that's part of the reason sea org members have such awful living conditions.
In my youth, I paid $12 a night to sleep at a hostel with similar conditions.
Sounds a bit like a prison work camp.
Try pulling the fire alarm. It should evacuate the building, allowing for a head count. It will also send the Clearwater Fire Department to the address as witnesses of that headcount. Truly, the residents of the building have every reason to fear for their safety. A fire drill might help make the case.
I like the idea, but I got a feeling Scientology has already taken preemtive steps to thwart that.
Those beds are like coffins. I feel claustrophobic just looking at them.
THE ROOM LOOKS LIKE AN OVERCROWDED PRISON
Miscavige is furiously at work right now trying to figure out how to stuff more people into each room.
I've been following you and many others, watching the demise of this horror. But, seeing, with my eyes, that room... I don't know. It broke my heart. This is shameful.
Darkness hates the Light. So, keep shining!
You are doing good work.
All of these people are making the free will choice to be there. It's arrogant that you think you know what they need and they don't.
@Bazza Norf Having to sleep in small spaces is not abuse.
@Bazza Norf They are not living like the staff, but everyone is making their own choices to live as they are. They can leave at any time if they wish to. People who think they are victims want to save other victims to justify thinking they are weak and being taken advantage of by perpetrators.
@Bazza Norf I don't advocate for religions or businesses to act as Scientology does, but adults learn from the choices they make, not from the ones people make for them. Scn should not have tax-exempt status because it is a business. "Do-gooding" like trying to save people from Scientology who don't care to be saved, is for their own popularity, for people like Aaron and Rinder and Leah Rimini to get accolades as saviors when these people are still blaming Scientology for ruining their lives or their children's lives. I gave up on Scieintology when I saw that Hubbard had anger issues and so I realized the therapy didn't do what I wanted an effective therapy to do. These angry people haven't gotten to that point yet and so they justify their anger. And thinking they are saviors will keep putting off the awakening
Just looking at these bunks makes me claustrophobic
We call those “ coffin racks” in the Navy. They’re 3 bunks high too, but we can sit up a bit and has a blue curtain for privacy. We do share 1 head though, with about 3 shower heads and a couple sinks to share for the whole Berthing.
Yet, Scientology has 100s of millions of dollars of vacant properties. Why would they do this unless they truly loathed their needy followers?
That's pretty tight. If my memory serves me well, I've only ever been packed that tight when my infantry unit used fallout shelters because all regular barracks were occupied...
I would suggest reaching out to the Pinellas County Housing Authority if the city won't do anything about it. Talking to the Fire Marshall could be an avenue to take as well because I bet this violates fire safety codes. GG A A Ron!
This is absolutely horrible! I can’t believe the city isn’t intervening. Disgusting.
I lived in those dorms for 8+ months. Mold was a huge problem, it was sooo humid in those rooms and everyone would hang their shirts up to dry making it even worse.
Thanks Aaron for another great video. I was an OOT too and this one really took me back. The Clipper and work-study. Oh my!
Are there really so many students there at one time that they have to be packed into one room like that?
At that rate, they can fit 500 trainees and just that one motel. Totally unnecessary.
Former resident of a neighboring street near Kneene property. Driving past you see bunks crammed ( not sure if they are 3 high). The one reason city doesn’t go in there unannounced is because the gates prohibit it. There are cameras everywhere. No unannounced surprise visit from code enforcement, the fire dept, or any other official who has the capability of doing anything will happen. Cameras point down from every corner of every building, the gates have multiple cameras. Scientology even has their own bus transportation. It’s pretty bad. Take a ride by on an evening when one shift is getting home late and the lights go on.
When I was a kid I was so excited to get the fourth or 3rd bunk so I could touch the ceiling. But now I think back to back to the dorms in the big blue building in Los Angeles and how gross they were cockroaches and God knows what . It really was not healthy or safe
Nicer rooms than the PAC base in CA! The beds there stacked 3 high (9-11 per room) were old iron bends that looked like they were from a creepy old 1930's mental institutions. When there was a health inspection scheduled, OSA had certain berthing rooms they would show the inspectors - "normal" looking rooms like a 2-3 beds in the room.
WOW! Just NO Words! Thanks for doing what you do Aaron! Your Appreciated! Keep Going!!!
I just tweeted this to Clearwater Fire Dept
🙏🏻🙏🏻
Dunedin . Didn’t know the Toronto Blue Jays winter camp is sooo close to Clearwater . You go A-A-Ron!! Keep doing what you do . Edit : 1100 into a 400 or so capacity building. Health hazard. Fire hazard . All sorts of hazards.
Aye Aye Ron!! ✌🏼

@@GrowingUpInScientology greetings from st. pete. i was near clearwater the other day and thought about doing a flag drive-by but it felt too creepy. didn’t do it.
That room reminds me of the cramped quarters in Jonestown. These cults really follow a sick playback. Thank you for your excellent videos.
These people are surviving in conditions worse than most county jails. It's sad that they believe that their religious conviction is more important than basic human necessities. Keep talking Aaron, they're listening.
You ARE identifying them in this. You said exactly where they live and which bed is theirs.
Exactly!
Excellent video. Very important news. When I was in the SO at Flag in 1988 I slept in a 3-tier bunk bed. I was the oldest guy in the 9-person room and they gave me the top bunk, but back then I was younger and much sprier. I pity the age 60 plus single SO members there today.
I remember taking that test long ago. Initially I bit in and took a very basic course. But I liked some ideas, at 18 yo I was looking for some existential answers. I bought the Dianetics book and it presented a compelling argument.
But I noticed they always pushed me to always spend money, and at some point they offered that work and study stuff. It rang all my alarms. I did never return there.
Later in my life I did dig deeper in internet about Scientology and found out it was a shitshow. Felt relieved.
Get em! We had better sleeping conditions in marine corps boot camp
"Somebody?" Report with photos to the local fire department and they will shut these places down immediately. Fire violations, housing violations, occupancy violations for starters. Do it now!
? ? ? Can you link the info for the proper fire Marshall and codes office so all your viewers can easily contact the proper authorities with screen shots and polite letters inquiring if these conditions are legal and inquiring that they take appropriate action if they’re not ? Also, can you link the address of the other staff/ sea org housing so that we may include those addresses in our outreach letters to the authorities as I’m sure they wouldn’t want to accidentally overlook all the illegal housing in their prevue. Also ? Hats off to the brave, undercover Scientologist who took the pictures and sent the, to you. Let’s all not allow their bravery go unheeded and fall to the wayside. I’ll be checking back to this video to see if you’ve added links to the authorities. Complaints en masse on particular properties surely won’t be shuffled to the another day like. Thanks as always , A-Aron.🌸
