Since we issued our "call
to action" to write to ABC News in support of John Stossel's excellent
coverage of the drug war and legalization -- responding to an action alert
by the "other side" asking people to criticize it -- over 450 of you have
sent us copies of letters you sent to ABC News at our request. Thank
you for taking action!
We are pleased to announce
that DRCNet is now offering VHS copies of this pivotal Stossel/ABC News
report. You can purchase a copy for $34 (shipping included), or you
can make a $65 or greater membership donation (or sign up for a $6 or greater
monthly credit card donation) and receive a complimentary copy. Visit
http://www.drcnet.org/stosseloffer/
to make your donation or purchase by credit card (you'll be forwarded to
our secure transaction server), watch the show if you missed it and play
it for your family and friends. Or, send a check or money order to:
DRCNet, P.O. Box 18402, Washington, DC 20036.
"War on Drugs: A War on Ourselves"
featured interviews with California judge James P. Gray, Detroit police
chief Jerry Oliver, New York priest Father Joe Kane, drug reform advocate
Sanho Tree of the Institute for Policy Studies, DEA chief Asa Hutchison
and others. Host John Stossel went the full mile and presented a
thought provoking discussion of the case for legalization and the realities
of the drug war at home and abroad. It is quite simply one of the
best reports ever done on the issue by a mainstream news network.
So please visit http://www.drcnet.org/stosseloffer/
and order your copy today!
Your donation to DRCNet will
support work such as our international anti-prohibition conference series,
"Out from the Shadows: Ending Drug Prohibition in the 21st Century."
DRCNet is organizing with drug reform and other supportive organizations
and institutions worldwide to mobilize reform forces in a clarion call
for ending drug prohibition outright. We will convene in February
in the city of Merida, capital of the Yucatan state of Mexico, and other
events are in the works (pending funding) at the European Parliament in
Brussels, Canada and the United States. Stay tuned to DRCNet for
further details!
Please note that contributions
to the Drug Reform Coordination Network, which support our lobbying programs,
are not tax-deductible. If you need or want a tax deduction, you
can also contribute to the DRCNet Foundation, same address. (Make
sure to use the correct web form or organizational name on your check.)
Again, please visit http://www.drcnet.org/stosseloffer/
to contribute or purchase today! Your donation marks a vote cast
for ending drug prohibition in the 21st century -- you are part of that
making it happen! Thank you for being a part of DRCNet.
