	What kind of protest are we talking about? A bunch of people standing
around being PO'd about this isn't going to do any good. You need to mail
the congress-type people about your feelings. They're the ones who can do
something about the law; hell, _invite_ them to the eat-in.

	USA Today did a few articles on the Forfeiture Act a few weeks ago.
They ran some scary stories regarding the extent on what has been done in
the name of the "War on Drugs". The scariest part of it though was that the
people were powerless to do anything about it themselves. 

	"We the people" need to tell our elected representatives that we're
not happy with this law. That is the only way I can see something changing
in the future.

	That is all I have to say,
