I wanted to apologize to all the protesters who used to stand out in front of Dogers stadium in LA CA.
I hated it when you guys were out there. I really wanted you to go away and leave alone.
Now I understand. You were right. You've been hurt. The WT was wrong.
I was always afraid of the people protesting outside of the Amarillo Center. (But I wanted to talk to them) I really wanted to read one of those fake Watchtowers they had...
Now I understand. You were right. You've been hurt. The WT was wrong.
Yeah same here, I only remember seeing protesters when we would go up to Phoenix for the convention. I never understood why they would do that, until now.
Yeah, I thought the ones leaving tracts on windshields in VA were nutty too. My bad.
I remember the group standing outside of the stadium and thinking, "There are the apostates they're talking about." They were viewed as the worst people on earth.......

I also ran the other way when those "crazy godless apostates" were standing outside the convention. I would hurry my children by them in case the apostate cooties would rub off.
Gee now to think that is me. A "crazy godless apostate" and proud of it.

Do people still protest outside conventions? Do any of them post here?
there was a guy who used to sit outside the assemblies and would be sitting there in his monkey suit... literally, he was dressed like a monkey... back when i was there i thought to myself, what an idiot, why doesnt this guy have anything better to do with his life... now looking back, this man did me a favour... he helped me realize that there must be something wrong to make people angry enough to sit in a sweltering suit like that all day in the middle of the summer...
in some ways, i owe him my freedom... i dont want to say im sorry, i want to say THANK YOU!
the infamous one
I remember then being at Yankee Stadium in the 60's early 70's and being scared to death of them, I though they were demonized!!!
