XMAS IN JULY

3rd Community smoke-in for Human Rights

Darwin’s third “Smoke-up for Human Rights” will be held on Saturday the 13th of July at 12 Noon in Raintree Park.

“Smoke-up for Human Rights” is now a monthly event, part of the campaign against the “War on Drugs” in the Northern Territory. July’s smoke-in will focus on the pending “Drug House” legislation and the lack of treatments for dependent opiate users in the Northern Territory.

The event will feature Santa Claus and his little helpers, presents for the children, free xmas lunch, local bands, speakers and a 1.4 metre joint.

Event co-organiser Gary Meyerhoff said “we hope more and more people will start coming to the smoke-ins, especially after the police backed down at the second event. However, a lot of people are still concerned that the police may take similar action as the brutal attack on activists at the second smoke-in (20th April).”

“The NT Labor government need to be shown that they do not have community support for their zero tolerance offensive on illicit drugs and illicit drug users. People can do this by coming to Raintree park and sharing a joint or a bong, or just coming along for a feed, to hear the music or to hear people speak.”
