Picture 8 are reps from the BORG closing the gate on the protester :) The were selecting the media folks to come inside. I think a protester put there foot in the gate like Dubs use to put their feet in the door :)

Captions provided by outnfree - Much Thanks - LL :) Bill Bowen awarding the first (uh-oh! What IS the official name?) Silentlambs Courage Award to Corrie Pandelo in front of 25 Columbia Heights Awards will be given out quarterly to honor those who come forward as survivors or who advocate the protection of children from molestation. Barbara and Carl Pandelo accepting their Courage Award from Bill. Corrie Pandelo being interview by the WNYC reporter on the Pierrepont section of the Brooklyn Heights Promenade, which was the staging area for the Silentlambs' March. Laurie Fitzwater is in the background. She was another one of the twelve persons who received Courage Awards from the Silentlambs Board. Some of the marchers walking down the street from Pierrepont Place to Columbia Heights Blvd. The reverse side of the "STOP WITNESS TAMPERING" banner is the banner below requesting the FBI to investigate the Watchtower. There are FEDERAL laws in the U.S. requiring parents to report child molestation to the proper authorities. Notice the cameramen rolling film from the stoops ahead of the marchers. The film crews ran to keep ahead of the marchers, who chanted such slogans as "1-2-3-4, silentlambs no more!", "1-2-3-4 No more pedophiles at our door!" (A few malcontents were heard shouting "J.R. Brown must go down!" but I wouldn't know who they were. ) When we arrived, WT basically shut its doors and was vetting all persons who wanted to gain entrance to the 25 Columbia Heights building. A really kind guy from Cincinnati, Ohio! (TTBoy) A few of the marchers gather around the banner for a photo opportunity while waiting for kick-off time. Marchers lined the benches on the promenade and across from the park while waiting for the March to get underway. From what I heard, the older gentleman from inside was trying to let a visitor from California inside. Watching reporters took notice and descended upon them to see if there was a story there. (Apparently the visitor got an earful from Erica Rodriguez who took umbrage at the reply the visitor gave when the reporters asked his opinion on the pedophile issue. This is all third or fourth hand into, but he allegedly said he'd "heard of the issue, but didn't think it was as bad as it was being portrayed.") The white-haired guy was annoyed when the visitor didn't ignore the reporters and protestors. See him trying to herd the visitor through the gates? Kim Norris, Ft. Worth, TX attorney who posts here as CONCERNED LAWYER, announces a multi-million dollar suit against the WTS and congregation elders that was being filed that very day in Oregon. It is the first of several suits that are to be filed nationwide by her firm. (Mike Pence is standing on the side - He was interviewing many of the protesters.) LadyLee's poem and lambs who actually made it to the WT's doorstep along with a very few others (and one pig). Bill Bowen holding up an official lamb (thank you, Gwyneth! -- and SS?) after gutless WT officials decline to either speak publicly on the issue or call a Judicial Committee on the GB as requested in Bill's previous letter. Another picture of the pre-March staging area. I am peeking out from behind the courageous young man with the purple hair. (Reporter from WB Channel 11 interviewing the Pandelo's.) Who was the masked man who pointed out JR Brown's duplicity on one side of his placard and the Awake! Issue that told faithful dubs that they could not seek outside counsel for mental health issues on the reverse? Barbara and Joe Anderson receiving their Courage Awards from Silentlambs.

i don't think we will ever see wt do this --or put it on watchtower.org.
despite the catholic church getting caught and having to pay big $$$$===they are at the very least coughing up the names.
as they say "money talks and bullsh!t walks".
Good catch - Excellent article.
I like this para:
"And rather than shrinking from this scandal -- which, too often, has allowed it to continue -- we must address it with humble contrition, righteous anger and public outrage. Telling the truth cannot be wrong."
Should be the theme of this event "TELLING THE TRUTH CAN NOT BE WRONG"
Peace - LL
Good 1.

i just finished listening to "what does our future hold" speech on randy's site, and it brought this thought to mind..... i don't feel the r/f jw's will see this as anything but satan's "deviously scheming" to bring an end to their organization.
after all, most who will attend the march are either "apostates" (or will be) or df'd.
i wonder if most will see it as a "sign" that the end is really near, and send them running back to the halls?.
I've been thinking about that - Not only the silentlamb march on the BORG but all the world events that is occurring at this point in time. The average and loyal Dub will view this as persecution and just part of the 'last days' prophecy, being they many of them are ignorant to world history and a global view on things. The hardcore Dubs will become even more vigilant but those of the edge or sitting on the fence will decidedly take a step on 'the other side.'
Peace - LL
