DESCRIPTION:4 pm Board of Supervisors vote;  5:30 press conference;  and 6 pm dinner 
 celebration of San Francisco's opposition to the NDAA's indefinite 
 detention provisions of the NDAA and our support for civil liberties! \n    
                                                                             
        Support a "yes" vote on a resolution at the SF Board of Supervisors 
 against the indefinite detention provisions of the NDAA(National Defense 
 Authorization Act).  Make sure that San Francisco says: No person in our 
 country should be deprived of their civil liberties!  Due process for all! 
 \n\nmore information:\n\nThe 2013 NDAA subjects individuals to arbitrary 
 detention without trial, without any guarantee of due process or the right 
 to challenge evidence and confront one’s accuser. The NDAA also endangers 
 First and Fourth Amendment rights, because the PATRIOT Act and the Supreme 
 Court’s holding in Humanitarian Law Project v. Holder expanded the 
 definition of “material support for terrorism” to include crimes of 
 speech and association even by defendants who neither committed nor ever 
 intended to support violence.\n\nWhile the NDAA may be difficult to change 
 at the federal level, a groundswell of public support against indefinite 
 detention is the best protection of constitutional rights and liberties.  
 Local government resolutions opposing military detention and supporting an 
 accused’s right to a trial focus public attention on these issues.  Such 
 resolutions have passed in 17 communities across the country.  Help San 
 Francisco become the 18th and by far the largest one to do so!\n\n 3:45 pm: 
  Please show up at City Hall room 244 for a polite but firm show of support 
 for this resolution.  The vote could occur at any time between then and 
 5:30 pm;  \n\n5:30 pm:  Press conference in front of the Abraham Lincoln 
 statue on sidewalk of the Polk Street side of City Hall (between the east 
 City Hall entrance and Grove Street); \n\n6:00 pm:  Meet and eat with other 
 supporters at Gyro King restaurant, 25 Grove, between 8th and Hyde, across 
 from the SF Main Library, for a no-host celebratory (we hope!) dinner!!\n\n
