SUPPORT THE AETA 4
Show support for the AETA 4 at their arraignment that will be happening next Thursday (Mar 19) at 9am at the San Jose District Court.

This case is a waste of the state's time and money, this case is seeking put limitations on citizens first amendment rights to free speech, and that these compassionate individuals should not be labeled as terrorists. I posted some additional info and links below. Please forward this information via email and by word of mouth -- and show support for fellow animal-lovers!


THE AETA 4
On February 19 and 20th four people, Nathan Pope, Adriana Stumpo, Joseph Buddenberg, and Maryam Khajavi, were arrested and charged with violating the Animal Enterprise Terrorism Act. They are threatened with facing 5 years in jail. They will need your support as they face a long trial process to prove their innocence.

2. Read Will Potter's article and the FBI document (posted on the AETA 4 myspace) so you understand how AETA not only affects AR activists but everyone's freedom of speech.

3. Come to the AETA 4 Arraignment at the San Jose District Court on MARCH 19th. (Message us if you need a ride from the Bay).

4. If you have some bucks, send them, because the legal fees will be large. Also, having a benefit event would be much appreciated.
