Scientology calls them REHABILITATION PROJECT FORCE Camps (or RPF's).
The NAZI's called them Concentration Camps.
To the SOVIETS they were Gulags.
And in CHINA they are Camps for Re-Education.
They're all the same thing.
Places designed to BREAK THE SPIRIT and the BODY of their "Criminal" Inmates.
So, who ends up in the RPF?
1. People deemed to have hidden evil intentions (detected by the E-meter).
2. People who were unproductive and scored poorly on the personality test.
3. Repeated "stat crashers" (people who were held responsible for declines in Scientology organizations' productivity)
4. "Overt product makers" (people who produced poor-quality work).
5. People who spoke against any member of the church or church activity (declared a Suppressive Person).
In the RPF you are held AGAINST YOUR WILL for months or even years. There is no release until you are declared "REDEEMED". If you are committed to an RPF late in your life, you might just die there (and be CREMATED before your family are informed of your death).
You will UNDERGO HARD LABOUR to- and beyond -- exhaustion. YOU HAVE TO RUN EVERYWHERE (WHILST CARRYING HEAVY WEIGHTS). You will be ordered to perform BIZARRE PHYSICAL TASKS, such as carrying buckets filled with sand up and down a ladder. You wear a PRISON UNIFORM to identify you as a CRIMINAL and to DEMEAN YOU. In the RPF you are FORBIDDEN ANY CONTACT WITH YOUR SPOUSE AND CHILDREN. In addition, whilst in the RPF, you are YOU ARE BILLED FOR EVERY SINGLE DAY YOU SPEND IN INCARCERATION AND FOR EVERY COURSE OF TREATMENT YOU RECEIVE.
These facts were confirmed in an investigative article in the LOS ANGELES TIMES ("In interviews and public records, former staff and inmates have said they were alienated from society, stripped of familiar beliefs, punished for aberrant behaviour, rewarded for conformity (brain-washing), and worked beyond exhaustion." (June 26, 1990, p. A16). "RPF'ers as they are called, are separated from their family and friends for months or years. They cannot speak unless spoken to, they run wherever they go and they wear armbands to denote their lowly condition." They are expected to do very menial jobs and hard labour or whatever the management "deem necessary for redemption."
Confinement in the RPF is not restricted to adults. CHILDREN WHO MISBEHAVE can be TAKEN FROM THEIR PARENTS and confined to the RPF.
Reports of abuse are common.
