Today's NORML Daily Audio Stash features an interview with SAFER Executive Director Mason Tvert about the upcoming Colorado Marijuana Reform Seminar & Activist Boot Camp. SAFER is co-hosting the event with Sensible Colorado on November 15 at Regis University in Denver.
The groundbreaking training was also recently mentioned over at the Colorado Independent, the state's premier Web-based original news sources. Apparently word about the event is spreading fast. At last count, approximately 130 Coloradans (and even a couple folks from neighboring states) have registered to attend. |

Protesters are standing at the fence near the main entrance to the building -- both pro-McCain and anti-Obama signs are out. "Hocky Mom for Obama" is right next to "Bad Change.com, whose literature indicates their main issue is abortion.
The biggest banner belongs to SAFER -- Safer Alternative For Enjoyable Recreation -- who promote marijuana as a safer choice than alcohol.
Their sign asks "What's the difference between Cindy McCain and a marijuana dealer? Mrs. McCain has made a fortune selling a more harmful drug -- alcohol."
"That's just sad," a woman wearing a McCain button says to one of the SAFER volunteers.

For American football fans in Colorado, former Denver Broncos
quarterback John Elway holds the standing of a sporting god: imagine
Christy Ring, DJ Carey, Seán Óg Ó hAilpín, Eddie Keher and Jimmy Barry
Murphy all rolled into one.
A single play he orchestrated against the Cleveland Browns is still
spoken of with awe 21 years later, as is his leadership "in the
greatest Super Bowl" ever played against the Green Bay Packers.
Yesterday, Elway came out to lend his support to Republican candidate
John McCain during a rally in the city's National Western arena, a
venue more used to cattle shows and rodeos.

 Cindy McCain, the subject of one of SAFER's recent campaigns, arrived in Colorado for a rally Friday with her husband, presidential candidate John McCain. SAFER welcomed the country's potential First Drug Dealer and her fans outside the event at National Western Arena in Denver.
As the Rocky Mountain News reported in its live blog of the rally:
8:22 a.m. Protesters are standing at the fence near the main entrance to the building -- both pro-McCain and anti-Obama signs are out. "Hocky Mom
for Obama" is right next to "Bad Change.com, whose literature indicates
their main issue is abortion. The biggest banner belongs to SAFER -- Safer Alternative For
Enjoyable Recreation -- who promote marijuana as a safer choice than
alcohol. Their sign asks "What's the difference between Cindy McCain and a
marijuana dealer? Mrs. McCain has made a fortune selling a more harmful
drug -- alcohol." "That's just sad," a woman wearing a McCain button says to one of the SAFER volunteers.


The banner and SAFER's presence also got a mention in the Irish Times, one of Ireland's most popular newspapers.
