New Counterpunch Article Covers Sherman Austin and San Diego Raids
MERLIN CHOWKWANYUN, c/o lotus,

On Wednesday, Sept. 3, 2003, Sherman Martin Austin began serving one year in federal prison under terms of a plea agreement for which he was sentenced on Aug. 4, 2003.

Austin, the 20-year-old African-American founder and former webmaster of the anarchist website www.raisethefist.com, pleaded guilty to "distribution" of information about making or using explosives with the "intent" that the information "be used for, or in furtherance of, an activity that constitutes a Federal crime of violence." Such was deemed illegal under a relatively obscure federal statute, 18 U.S.C. 842 (p)(2)(A), pushed through Congress by Democrat Sen. Dianne Feinstein in the late 1990s. The offending material, which Austin repeatedly has emphasized he did not author, was housed on an isolated section of Austin's web server, and a small portion of it contained amateurish instructions on how to assemble simple explosives.

Liberation or theft? Turkey's rescued...
Compassion for Farm Animals,

Turkey slavemasters are going to say they are treated alright, but the reality is the turkies are seen as products and treated that way. That's what "livestock" means. Livestock = slave. Rejecting the ritual slaughter of turkies on thanksgiving ivolves making a big statement to your family and is the most important expression of Vegetarian ideals.
