Last summer, thousands of parasites from alcohol enforcement bureaux descended upon Nashville, Tennessee (at the taxation victims' expense, of course) for the Underage Drinking Enforcement Training Center's annual conference, where they discussed ways to intimidate men and women under 21 into drinking only nonalcoholic beverages.

On short notice, a handful of local liberty activists managed to do much more than hold a small protest outside. They sabotaged an enemy operation, by calling bars and liquor stores to warn them what time the conference schedule said the parasites could tag along with local cops to watch sting operations.

If they're hoping for better luck next time, they'll be sadly disappointed. They can run, but they cannot hide. Their next conference is tentatively scheduled for the week of 9 Aug 2009 in Dallas, Texas. More info will become available on their website.

This can give liberty activists enough time to plan. Can you get Ron Paul to protest the tie-in to federal highway construction grants? U.S. Rep. Kevin Brady, R-Texas got busted for drunk driving on 7 October 2005 and then voted for federal grants to pay for the gun-toting goons in bulletproof vests who force innocent, responsible drinkers into patrol cars and haul them off to jail.

I have some material on two websites you can use.
