Fair Game in Ireland

Nerin

Myself and members of a protest group are wondering what Irelands legal stance is regarding the use of Fair Game by Scientologists.
those of you that dont know what it is : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fair_Game_(Scientology)

Just want to put peoples minds at ease/inform them how far Fair Game is legally allowed go in Ireland

Thanks in advance.

I believe the purpose of 'fair game' is to attack, using legal (semi-legal) methods.

Have you asked for Garda presence?
Might be a good idea, especially since they offered their service

its more about whether they could use the group page to track down members and fair game them.
is it legal in ireland to picket someones house/follow them around?

Krieg

Im sure following people around counts as harassment, not sure about Picketing homes, but I cant see that happening here.

Anyway, Im sure you have heard many of the stories regarding "Fair Game". even when its a camera crew involved, that doesnt stop them and there never seems to be any legal repercutions afterwards (against CoS).

From the john sweeny docu a while back. John talked to a critic of the church asking what to expect. He talked about the fair game policy and warned that you shouldnt say/do anything against the church unless you are prepared for the possible fallout afterwards
