Tom Cruise is scum.— The Boarding House (@SalvatoreBH) March 30, 2015Wow. Finally watching the HBO documentary on the fraud that is Scientology. Tom Cruise and John Travolta should be ashamed of themselves.— Dave Biddle (@davebiddle) March 31, 2015I ASK THE @SCIENTOLOGY SERIOUS QUESTION: WHO HAVE BIGGER BALLS MIDGET BABY MOSQUITO OR THE TOM CRUISE?— The Iron Sheik (@the_ironsheik) March 30, 2015Horrifying how Scientology loathes and persecutes gay men and women. Yet, top spokespeople? Tom Cruise and John Travolta. #GoingClear— Amy Selwyn (@amyselwyn) March 30, 2015I knew #Scientology was a horrible cult, but @HBO's #GoingClear still shocked. Travolta & especially @TomCruise are complicit cowards.— Peter Staley (@peterstaley) March 30, 2015
