Coalition to Abolish the AETA
I'm concerned about the Animal Enterprise Terrorism Act. Here's an interesting description of the AETA and why it's bad.

"The language of the AETA covers many First Amendment activities, such as picketing, boycotts and undercover investigations if they 'interfere' with an animal enterprise by causing a loss of profits. So in effect, The AETA silences the peaceful and lawful protest activities of animal and environmental advocates."

Thanks for posting this! CCR is helping to organize this effort. And your post is a good reminder that I should post about it too! :-)
