		     JOIN Real Men(*) IN SAYING:

		  Stop Verbal Violence Against Women

PROTEST:  the Comedy Connection's decision to feature Andrew Dice Clay
          (Nov. 16 & 17) for the 2nd time in 5 months, in the midst of
          a major crisis of men's violence against women in Massachusetts
          and across the country.

Call Comedy Connection G.M. Frank Ahearn at 617-248-9700 and let him know
how you feel about "the best comedy club in the country" giving Dice Clay
such a prominent platform from which to spew aggression against women,
people of color, gays and lesbians, the homeless, etc.

	   The Comedy Connection has the *right* to feature
			  Andrew Dice Clay.

  But they also have a *responsibility* to the community, and to women.
