TUCSON Moderates Debate Anarchists
Kelly Carhater,

I disagree with every statement made in the article – try this one for instructiveness: "I never knew anarchism to mean that one has the right to put others at risk without their knowledge or consent." I wonder If Jeneine frets over this every time she turns her "rising value" cottage light switch on or starts her nice car ( translated as: HYPOCRICY!). Did the Navahos get consent to be strip mined or the Iraqis bombed so her gas tank would stay full?

A Call For Solidarity
David Agranoff,

David mailed me this statement asking for solidarity and asked that I post it on IndyMedia. There are only a few spelling errors/typos in David's letter because he had to write this in a bit of a hurry, but I will try to make them coherent while keeping as much of David's writing in it's original form as possible. Hopefully I don't add my own typos as I type this out.
