Heroes:
I am forwarding this message to you, emphasizing that two warnings accompan=
y it.
Warning No. 1: The official position of the Pima County Libertarian Party =
is that it is not endorsing or proposing to become involved in any activity=
not currently on its plate.
Warning No. 2: One of our members has pointed out that the upcoming protes=
t described below is backed by hard-line left organizations including remna=
nts of the Communist Party, and has asked the question, "Do we want to be s=
een associating with people of this political stripe?"
I plan to attend this demonstration (as a private individual) because I am =
against the War on Drugs.
I really don't care about the allegiances of other people at the demonstrat=
ion (for example, members of the International Association of Syphilitic P=
edophiles--that one just came to me). For those of you who feel the same =
way I do, the notification below is for you.
David

I am forwarding your e-mail to all members of the list serv for the Pima =
County Libertarian Party. This is a group to which I belong, but I am not =
an officer. I therefore cannot speak for the Party, but I am sending a sep=
arate e-mail to Jay Walsh, Chairman of the Party, to make sure he is aware =
of your plans. I am sure he will encourage our members to participate.

Dear Fellow Activist:
Y.U.R. political activism club, a student organization based at Catalin=
a Foothills High School, is in the midst of organizing an important, long o=
verdue event. On Friday, May 4, at 4:30 p.m., we are hoping to have the lar=
gest protest of the War on Drugs in recent history. The Drug War has recent=
ly begun to come under fire in the mainstream media, and some mainstream po=
liticians (even our president!) are even starting to question the draconian=
policies that have resulted in our nation's biggest prison boom ever.
An instrumental goal in this protest will be citizen participation, and=
the best way to do this is the formation of a coalition of groups willing =
to support this cause. We are hoping that your group will help get the word=
out and, in turn, we will put your name on our flier and press releases as=
supporters/co-organizers. This issue is essential and, for the first time =
in many years, we have a chance to see to it that these policies are change=
d. But, without your participation, this action will no doubt make less of =
an impact than we are hoping for.
Please email me (Alex Provan) at provan@goodnet.com or call me at 797-9=
568 to confirm your interest. I have included prototype flier (front and =
back) with the name of your organization at the bottom. I will remove your =
name if your group is not interested. Thank you for your time.
Sincerely,
Alex Provan
