On Thursday, July 30, 1992 the DEA seized the business account of the owner of the Yello Sub restaurant on the Hill in Boulder. The account was seized under the Federal Forfeiture Act after an employee was arrested for allegedly selling illegal drugs through the mail. However, the DEA has not filed any charges against the owner of the restaurant. And they have no evidence linking the account with the alleged drug mailings. Furthermore, the DEA never notified the owner that his account had been seized. He discovered it after his checks began to bounce. These seizures are happening all over the country. If you, or someone you live with, or even someone that works for you, is arrested on drug-related charges, your home, your business, and your money can all be confiscated without due process of the law. No longer are you innocent until proven guilty! Citizens must fight back at these un-Constitutional laws. The DEA is obviously trying to test the waters in Boulder to see how much they can get away with. We need to stand up to them now and let them know that we will not meekly stand by and let them violate our rights and destroy our neighbors' lives. There will be a protest and eat-in at the restaurant: Take a Bite Out of Fascism Saturday, August 15 12 noon - 5pm Yello Sub 1215 13th Street On the Hill Boulder, Colorado Please spread the word! United, we can fight this flagrant disregard of our Constitutional rights! Sponsored by the Boulder Hemp Initiative Group and the Boulder County Libertarian Party.
