-- US ANTI-RAVE LAW!! --->petition

(copy of the petition)

To: To all city halls, legislators, aldermans, etc., concerning this issue
This is a petition on behalf of all promoters, DJ's, and party goers. This petition is to help stop the "Anti-Rave" law that was passed in Chicago and other major cities. In simple terms, the law states that there can be no party that holds 100 or more people at it with a DJ. If you are caught, you as a DJ, property owner, or promoter can be fined up to $10,000 and/or possible jail time. This is a violation of our rights, the right to assemble. The punishement is unjust and it is time for you to help to fight back at "the problem," at a crime that doesn't exist. Please leave your name and/or contact info along with a small comment on your regards. We will pass this petition to all city halls with the new law. Thanks for all of your support.

Sincerely,

The Undersigned

I think it's important that we all come together to help keep the scene alive, both at home and down south. There are over 23000 signatures right now, but the more the better. Please read and sign the petition.

does anyone know if it is existant outside of the usa as well?

im not sure if they are outside of the US but i do know that they would love to keep growing and that if you knew anyone who was interested you could start your own dancesafe group where you are. just write them and see what they say. you may or may not be intrested but its such a good thing and should exist everywhere.
