“KNOW YOUR RIGHTS” The DEA has already begun to enforce the RAVE Act and the effects of such are already beginning to affect everyone! Do your part to prevent enforcement of the RAVE Act in unjust and unfair manners by contributing your suggestions. The Drug Policy Alliance is in the process of compiling “Know Your Rights” resources and information for individuals like you to use and refer to if you have an encounter with the police. This project is in conjunction with our efforts to help combat unfair enforcement of the recently passed RAVE Act. We are currently collecting insights and thoughts from those in our local and national music communities who attend parties/concerts/political events, including DJs, musicians, artists of all genres, promoters, et cetera, about what you desire to know regarding your rights in police encounters. If you would like to assist the Drug Policy Alliance in helping to clarify your rights when confronted by the police, please respond with some specific questions or requests for information that you would like to see answered in an easy-to-digest format, readily available to communities around the nation much like yours. (Some examples include: ‘Do I have the right to resist search by cops?’ or ‘Do I have the right to know why I am being arrested?’) Please e-mail them to Dulce Vita at [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___________________________________________________________________ The D mailing list http://www.djdenise.com/ Check out the new forum! http://www.djdenise.com/forum/
