I watched this show in full. Netflix Afflicted. These people to the one had mental issues. There is not such thing as Electromagnetic hypersensitivity or the other crap. This could easily be tested and in fact in the case of Carmen she did not know about the EMC of the wireless mike and it was not an issue. Mental problems are real that is a fact but these people do not have some environmental illness. I used to see the old quack medical instruments in antique stores and think that this was a crazy age when ignorant people would believe anything. Then I saw all the quacks rapping people of their money. Thousands of dollars for BS treatments. Like the mold renovation in the case of Jill. If you tested 1000 homes every one would test pos. for black mold. The spores are everywhere. Lead and other metals are in the enviroment naturally and its in elevated levels they become dangerous. I blame the eco nuts who go crazy about the end of the world to the point where mentally ill people are scared crap-less.

Its a strange situation that former JWs lose friends and family before they lose them. So in reality you lose them twice once they pass away. Then to rub salt in the wound you go to a funeral, if you are even invited and get to hear a recruitment propaganda speech. God do I hate this cult.

I have a father in law who now living in poverty with his wife in a home for Alzhimers patients paid for my medicaid and care, is telling his grand daughter to go to collage and get some kind of education that can help her get some kind of job other than burger king. If she goes for liberal arts or other stupid majors than its just a waste of money.

I received a post from another person who remembers the tags and set aside seating for DFed at some assemblies in the North Midwest area. It seems it was not wide spread. One of the people who is published and worked at Bethal said that she knows it was not something that came down from HQ but will ask older ones to see if anyone remembers it. I thought it was everywhere. It reminds me of how in Northern Michigan they were very conservative. No parties for teens, dance parties especially, not going to any after school hours function ect. There was a JW friend of mine whos father moved up north for 75. When it did not happen he needed to feed his 8 kids so moved to California during the recession of the late 70s and 80s. My friend would write back telling me about the beach parties and other things that would be a JC hearing if it were in the Midwest.

I sent a few emails and a couple of people are asking around. Could it be mis-remembered sure. But I don't think so. I will keep asking around on different forums.

I put this topic out on several other forums to see if anyone remembers this. Sounds like it was not wide spread or at the HQ direction.

I asked my wife and she does not remember it either but I do. I believe it was a circuit assembly a small one but could not say where. Northern Michigan, Canada area I would assume. Could have been some localized thing. I do remember it tough. But I would have been 7 to 9 YO. -

I don't think the area was a coral they had to stay in, it was a designated seating. Could it have been a one of. I don't know. I know they had seating in a designated area and a badge type ribbon that said disfellowshipped. I don't remember it after the 60s but I know it was several assemblies in our area as a kid at that time.

I did it about 6 months ago. I was told growing up most of my heritage was England and Germany. I did the Ancestry.com and it came back 60% England and 35% Western Europe and 2% Scandinavia so they were not lying.
