Discrimination against Wiccans

Fudamentalists often times interrupt Wiccan circles and not only that, they desecrate Wiccan stone circles.  These firebrand Christians often times beat up Wiccans in states like Texas, Alabama, and Florida.  They often discriminate against people in the Craft for jobs, and if a Wiccan is found out in one of these states, they often lose their jobs, or worse, get beat up for their personal beliefs.  I probably would advise all Wiccans, Druids and other Earth-believing people to leave these trouble states before more trouble starts for them.  Come up North to free territory.  We get treated like slaves and second class citizens in these states.  How would these firebrand fundies feel if they got their churches desectrated by punk rockers.  This happened in Scotland in 1975.

Speak out against sea lion killings

Speak Out Against Sea Lion Killing in Portland on Wednesday, November 10

author: Matt Rossell        e-mail: matt@idausa.org

Please join In Defense of Animals at a demonstration at the Doubletree, Lloyd Center location in Portland, Oregon where the Pinniped-Fishery Interaction Task Force is meeting, to voice your outrage over the continued state-sanctioned killing of California sea lions. This misguided, unethical program is targeting, branding, and killing native sea lions in the Columbia River for simply eating fish. In the past three years this program has been responsible for the removal of 40 sea lions and the government's own data suggests that the program is not working to protect endangered Spring salmon runs, but the killing continues. sea_lion What: Demonstration to oppose sea lion killing When: Wednesday, November, 10, 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. Where: Doubletree Lloyd Center, 1000 NE Multnomah St., Portland, Ore. ( http://bit.ly/cXddR6) For more information call Matt at IDA, 503-249-9996 or e-mail matt[at]idausa[dot]org.

help us!

This Pinniped-Fishery Interaction Task Force is charged with the task of reviewing the data collected over the past three years, and making a recommendation of whether to continue, change, or end the program. Despite the fact that, as predicted, new sea lions are just coming to take the place of the sea lions they kill, and the sea lions are only eating a tiny percentage of the salmon run below the Bonneville Dam, a majority of the Task Force has already voted to recommend that the federal government should loosen its criteria for putting sea lions on the "hit list," meaning that even more sea lions will be killed! Please join us this Wednesday at 11:30 a.m., the sea lions need your support! Signs will be provided, just come and bring your friends and family!

companies against marijuana legalization

DEA, FBI, pretty much all forms of law enforcement (local, state, and federal), gangs/dealers, lawyers, judges, prison guards, people who build prisons, people who sell supplies to prisons, tobacco companies, alcohol companies, prescription pain killer companies, cotton companies, clothing companies, rope companies... anyone who stands to lose money or their job is opposed to legalization. The very fact that marijuana is illegal gives thousands of people jobs, and being that most lawmakers usually started out as lawyers, they understand that they would be putting a bunch of their buddies out of business
