of
Outrage
This
April
24
to
Protest
RAVE
Act
Abuses
4/16/04
Last June DRCNet reported
on the shutting down of a benefit event for the University of Montana chapters
of NORML and SSDP under threat of a RAVE Act prosecution by a local DEA
agent (https://stopthedrugwar.org/chronicle-old/290/dearave.shtml).
As Geov Parrish commented in the Working for Change bulletin last October,
"the RAVE Act does more to stop dancing than drug use" (http://www.workingforchange.com/article.cfm?itemid=15869).
Two weekends from now (Saturday
April 24), groups around the country are organizing events to protest the
RAVE Act, raise awareness of its consequences and raise money to continue
to work to oppose it. According to the Drug Policy Alliance, events are
planned so far in Billings (MT), Denver, Los Angeles, New York, Santa Fe
and Washington, DC.

for further information on the April 24 national day of action and related
topics.
