FIGHT FOR YOUR RIGHT TO PARTY The use of drugs, chemicals, neuroware, sacramental plants or whatever you want to call them is an old and ongoing issue in the party community and it isn't going away anytime soon. No matter how much politicians promise to reform, legalise, etc the status quo is always reinforced leading to black market economies that actually prop up the dysfunctional world economy and keep a regular flow of criminal dissidents to fuel the fastest growing business sector - the prison industry. What has this to do with Trance Culture? You might be asking 'Well, if you're not asking now it might be too late when the cops bust your party and strip search everyone on site, harass you for your appearance under random search laws, and generally intimidate and attempt to eradicate a lifestyle and consciousness that is very much connected with Trance Culture. In America, Home of the Free tm, the War on Drugs has been quietly escalating as multi billion dollar homeland security troops turn their attentions towards the psychedelic community and the party scene (including the infamous anti-Rave laws). In the biggest bust since the psychedelic 60's, two Californians were recently convicted of running an LSD lab (from an ex-nuclear silo in Kansas if you please!) that manufactured most of America's acid. William Leonard Pickard, an ex-deputy director of UCLA's Drug Policy Research Program, was sentenced to life in prison without parole, while Clyde Apperson was sentenced to 30 years in prison without parole, according to the Drug Enforcement Administration. The two men were convicted in March of two counts each of conspiracy to manufacture and distribute LSD and possession with intent to distribute. A free Leonard Pickard website is up @ http://www.freepickard.org/ to help lobby against his gross over sentencing and discuss drug legalisation issues. With Australia entering into the fallaciously titled Free Trade Agreement with the US, and our military bundling itself to US style system, it can only be a matter of time before the black baton of justice comes smashing down on the dance floor here. An awareness of politics and current goings on in psy scenes overseas is a muchneeded bellweather for what will eventually affect us here. Your right to your own brain state and consciousness is an inherent human activity that state should not - and cannot control, but it might take a politically united Trance and Psy community to uphold.
