i was a special attendant at an assembly, which was security. you wouldn't believe how much shit goes on at assemblies that are kept on the down-low. they have people with binoculars in dark rooms that you can't see surveying the whole crowd and attendants implanted throughout the stadiums. it's very well organized.
we had a guy get in a yelling fight with someone, ran to his car and grabbed something shinny out of his trunk...we were on the walkies calling out, 'he's carrying, the dude has a gun and is coming back', they did the brother surround thing they do and asked for his gun which turned out to be a can of mace.
and, 'apostates' would try to call us all back to headquarters and get on our frequencies. they were actually pretty lame b/c we had codes that were pretty easy to figure out, but they never did over the four days.
last assembly i went to, a bunch of people were reading the bible through loud speakers and screaming jws were wrong as we walked to our cars and brothers were around them and everyone pretended like they weren't there. i live in the city, so if someone is yelling or being obnoxious in my ear space i'll tell them to shut the fuck up. which i did, to my wife's horror. i don't care if i agree with them, but the whole protest thing is lame when it's irritating....there are smarter ways to help expose the jws. being antagonistic just gives them 'joy' for being persecuted.
anyway, heavy security at assemblies, very tied in together through walkie talkies, etc., nothing goes unnoticed.
