SHAC 7 benefit - Friday night

by Sweet Justice
Sweet Justice - a benefit for the SHAC7
SWEET JUSTICE: A Legal Defense Fund Benefit for the SHAC 7's Landmark Case

Friday at 8:00 PM
1884 Market Street @ Laguna
$10-15


Freedom of speech is under attack!

On May 26, three Bay Area activists were indicted by a federal grand jury under the Animal Enterprise Terrorism Act for speaking out for animals in labs. As activists gain more power in their fight for social change, the government is desperately trying to blur the line between freedom of speech and terrorism. This is an important case for all who wish to preserve our civil liberties. If the government can get away with charging animal advocates with terrorism, WHO IS NEXT?

Join us for an evening of divine vegan desserts, speakers and a silent auction/raffle in support of this landmark case.

Make no mistake -- this is not about terrorism or animal rights. The simple fact is that these charges are nothing more than an attempt to silence activists who have utilized their First Amendment right to speak out on controversial issues and tactics. If the government can get away with charging these activists with Terrorism, every protester in the US has something to worry about!
