As a condition of his probation, he is forbidden to do anything that bothers a Scientologist.
“If I say anything that annoys a Scientologist I go back to jail.”
In fact, his three-year probation, available through the Riverside, Calif., court web pages, orders him to avoid any negative contact with any Scientologist, not to come within 1,000 feet of a Scientologist and not to annoy or harass any member of the group.
The Church of Scientology says a group that has been protesting against the church are religious bigots that are merely perpetrating religious hate crimes.
Sunday, members of a group called ‘Anonymous’ gathered outside the central Phoenix Church of Scientology to protest.

Devotees of the Church of Scientology have gained access to thousands of British children through a charity that visits schools to lecture on the dangers of drugs. A Sunday Times investigation has found that Marlborough College is one of more than 500 schools across Britain where the charity has taught.
Critics of the charity, Narconon, say it is a front to promote the teaching of Scientology - the controversial “religion” founded by L Ron Hubbard, the science fiction writer.
Schools contacted last week said they knew nothing about the charity’s links with Scientology. There is no apparent reference to the church in its drugs education literature.
