%Title: 24-7: Notes From the Inside Volume 1 Issue 3 December, 1993
%Descr: "The Students and Teens Opposing Psychiatric (STOP) Abuse
Network was started in response to the growing number of
adolsecents being institutionalized by the mental 'health'
system." The network and the zine exist to educate the
public about this under-reported system of abuse, and to
provide a forum for survivors of 'voluntary'
institutionalization. The prisoner sub, in this case,
refers to minors imprisoned by this system.
This issue has several reprints from some pretty good zines on
the subject of psychiatric abuse. The stories, and the letters
describing first-hand abuse, are enough to make one want to
firebomb a psychiatric 'hospital.' On the other hand, we do
learn that there are zines for people with Multiple Personality
Disorder who don't wnat to integrate.

to." - A counselor from the San Francisco Youth Guidance Center.

%Title: ANLETTER: Equations Quarterly on Third World Tourism Volume 2
Issue
%Descr: 1 Oct.'93
This political, activist newsletter is a new incarnation of
Alternative Network Letter which served as a resource and
information center for Third World tourism issues, primarily
focussing on India. The new ANLetter takes on the broader
canvas of Asia and other Third World tourist hot-spots or
soon-to-be-hot spots, serving as a staging area for
workshops, campaigns, publications and collaborations with
activists and academics worldwide in fighting the sexual
exploitation of children in Asian tourist industries, golf
course development and related issues impacting native
peoples.
This second issue of ANLetter continues in the same vein as its
debut issue, offering seemingly academic articles asserting the
position that tourism is a form of colonization and exploitation
of third, fourth and fifth-world countries in a shrill, polemical
tone. Take for example a piece entitled, the "Rape of Virgin
Beaches of Puri," or "Turkey--Holiday Resort or Torture Chamber."

%Title: ALTER OR ABOLISH: The Chronicle of the Second American
Revolution
%Descr: Issue 13 Autumn, 1993
Formerly _The Urine Nation News_, _Alter or Abolish_ is a
bigger and better version of an already great zine. *This*

Rights, along with in-depth analysis of governmental

This issue documents the evolution of the zine from the old form
to the new along with a host of government abuses in the name of
the Wars on (some) Drugs, (some) Pollutants, (some) Weapons and
(some) Bad Thoughts that are filling the prisons beyond their
recently doubled capacities while violent felons are sent free.
Plus FIJA, Waco and the FDA's crackdown on health supplements.

draconian policies of victim disarmament (a.k.a. Gun Control),

ban books, putting blinds over nude butts in a mural, and
even, good grief, getting rid of those bare breasts in the
"Where's Waldo?" puzzles! It's scary stuff, but somebody
has to keep track of threats to our rights.

7
%Descr: Issue 2 August, 1993
Hey, a Libertarian zine that discusses *tactics*!
Most of this issue is devoted to the "Hit'em where they ain't"
campaign, where the LP presidential candidate should concentrate
on New Hampshire *after* everyone else leaves the state. I say
great, but they should also campaign in Neveda, Maine and Alaska
- states with proportionally high numbers of Libertarians and
little (if any) attention from the candidates of The Party.

4

I love that subhead. It almost defines all of zine culture.
It's a ranty political zine that has room for poetry and art
in between the personal comments.
There's a rant about political labels, a field guide for
identifying fundamentalists, comments on the Midwest floods, a
rant about Rush, and a stupid letter from Senator Lugar.

Estonia; reprints from _Ballot Access News_; and commentaries
on the so-called right to medical care, the cowardice of

prisoners to homosexuals to striking workers. There's a bit
of an anarchist slant but it's certainly not your typical
academic anarchist journal.
A terrible miscarrage of justice as the Guildford 4's convictions
were finally overturned after spending 14 years on prison, the
fight to protect ancient Celtic burrial grounds, the libel case
McDonald's has taken agains British protesters, tips on poll tax
resistance, and the effects of the Maastricht.

%Title: ECOSOCIALIST REVIEW Volume 7 Issue 3 Summer '93
%Descr: "Watermellon" is a term I've heard a Libertarian use to
describe some environmental activists. "Green on the
outside, red on the inside." Well, in discussing
environmental issues, I'd rather listen to an eco-socialist
then a libertarian that want to eliminate all restrictive
environmental regulations.
There's an essay on post-industrialist environmentalism,
multinational environmental disasters, the state of green
politics, the problems with the Superfund, and the environmental
effects of NAFTA.
EcoSocialism is the One True Path, as they slag everyone from the
Sierra Club to Earth First!

%Title: F.E.A.R. CHRONICLES: Forfeiture Endangers American Rights
Volume 1
%Descr: Issue 6 May, 1993
Scary studies of how local, state and federal agencies steal
citizen's property because they damn well feel like it.
Most of the news in this issue is good. I'm sure more recent
issues will have even better news with the latest Supreme Court
rulings. However, every court victory is balanced by the latest
tale of government abuses, the oddest of which being the
forfeiture of one of the world's few intact Tyrannosaurus Rex
skeletons.
A frightening look into current government abuses, mixed in with
some hope.

divided into those discussing economics, and those discussing
other issues.

%Descr: The 28-year-old anarchist magazine covering international
anarchist news with a nod to the situationists. Rebelious,
informative, funny, and historical without all the dogma
usually associated with heavy political magazines.
News of the anti-racist demonstrations in Chattanooga, the new
PLO/Isreali treaty, how McDonald's is silencing its critics, a
look back on Biosphere 2, reports on several Anarchist Gathering
last Summer, the truth about what's going on in Bosnia, U.S.

%Title: GUILLOTINE November, 1993
%Descr: Fiery, uncompromising,in-yer-face anarcho-capitalist zine.
*This* is the type of Libertarian zine I love to read.
The big aritcle in this issue is on the privitization of police
forces, a sacred cow that many LP politicians are unwilling to
touch. Curiously, the suspect Wackenhut corporation is mentioned
as being the private force of a few rural towns. Wackenhut
features prominately in the conspiracy theories surrounding the
Iran-Contra/Carbazon Tribe/Danny Cassolaro/Inslaw imbroligo.
While the other articles touch upon subjects commonly discussed
in libertarian circles, drug re-legalization, government
tramplings of individual and economic rights and such like,
_Guillotine_ attacks the issues with an inspiring gusto.

%Title: IBF NEWS: Promoting bicycle transport, international
understanding
%Descr: Volume 2 Issue 1 January, 1994
Great pro-bike, anti-car zine focussing on bicycle diplomacy
and bikes as a key part of a sustainable infrastructure.
This issue features a least-cost analysis of transportation, and
I'll give you one guess as to the most cost-efficient means of
transportation, even comparing 5 km bike trips to 1 km car trips.
There's also news about actual government planning for bicycles
in sub-Saharan Africa and a variety of African bike tours. And a
cost comparisson from Eugene Oregon which provides some
interesting data. For the cost of nine miles of new car-carrying
roads and doubling the capacity of a one mile bridge, a city
could buy a bicycle for everyone over 11, instal 10,000 7 bike
racks, build 30 miles of bicycle/pedestrian paths, eliminate bus
fares, run free busses to the airport, eliminate the budget
deficit, give $100 a month to 1,000 poor and/or homeless people
and still have $4.1 million left over.

Not as contradictory as you would first think, as the
publisher does apply standard Libertarian ideals (property
rights, self-government and such) to his positions.
This issue has extensive dialog between James and Doris Gordon,
the national co-ordinator for Libertarians for Life. Doris seems
more rigid and single-minded about her opinions then James.

%Descr: Latest propaganda from Republicans who generally pretend to
be stealth Libertarians.
Gee, do you think they didn't like our first review? They called
us "leftist" and did some selective quoting, tactics worthy of
the Christian Coalition. I'll beleive that the RLC is truly
libertarian when they run candidates under the Republican banner
who promise to *re-legalize* drugs. Granted, they'll be opposing
Ollie North, and I'd rather see these people in charge of the
Republican faction of the Party than their Christian Coalition
brethren, however their idea of a libertarian agenda appears to
be "No parole, free markets for big business that has government
contracts, and a 'big tent' Republican faction that still
excludes gays and lesbians."
Just consider that the RLC considers Pierre "Mandatory drug
testing for everyone" DuPont, Jesse Helms and William Dannemayer
as "libertarian."

%Title: RUFF KUTT: Dossier of the Delectably Deranged Issue 2
Brigidfire,
%Descr: 199
Although _Ruff Kutt_ has the same name and address, the
focus is very different. Hell, they've even started over
with issue #1. Most of the UFO and Secret Government news
has taken a backseat to more immeadiate problems, although
the _Schwa_ aliens are on almost every page. The fucker is
*huge* now, at 66 pages. With all the reprints from various
sources, righteous rages, and focus on environmental and
civil rights issues.
Although this zine is all over the place, the main focus is on
that evil, vile corporate cancer by the name of Georgia Pacific.
Apparently over-harvesting of trees is not enough for GP, as they
must also dump chlorine into the water supply. There's also a
Zappa memorial, Leonard Peltier information, the latest
atrocities in Haiti, some balanced hemp information (told in
comic form) and the Grey's agenda.
_Ruff Kutt_ has transformed into something like a Northwest
edition of _Wind Chill Factor_.

Way back in college I read something by Gerry Mander called *Four

but because therein I had found some ideas I could truly relate
to. So apparently, have the folks who publish *S.E.T. Free*.
Armed only with typewriters, scissors and a copier, they are
fighting one of the most subversive wars of our era - they don't
want you to "strive to control" your viewing, they want you to
lick a hole in the damn thing, put it in your yard and fill it
with flowers. Join up and they'll even send a cool membership

Regular features include anarchy around the world and a
calendar of politcal events.
Mayor Fank Jordon has really been comming down hard on Food Not
Bombs. I guess he figures that the problems of a decaying city
can be solved by arresting people for giving out free food. More
typical news, Pete Wilson vetoed the needle exchange bill, even
though there is now proof that such a plan reduces the incidence
of HIV transmission. Essays on Clinton's health plan, radical
organic gardening, and the effect of pornography.

This issue looks at the impending 'reform' of the Health Care

(watching too much TV?), juries are supposed to have the
power to veto bad laws. Judges rarely inform them of this
constitutional fact. Although closely allied with the
Libertarian Party, the FIJA is the most successful of all
libertarian groups.
Most of the news is pretty good, with Jury Nullification getting
mentioned as a 'problem' on CNN's "Crossfire", reports on the
highly confrontational tactics of the California FIJA (Yea
Team!), reprints of various articles about the FIJA and, of
course, the Randy Weaver and Branch Davidian trials.

and propaganda, then you should at least get a sample issue.
Now that Mr. LaRouche has been freed, more stories can be printed
like the ones about CAN's Waco cover-up, Representative
Gonzalez's attacks on the Federal Reserve, how the IMF's policies
could lead to a global "North vs. South" war and how the
conflicts in the Balkans and the trans-Caucus regions could also
ignite global conflict.

election with the 1991 redrawn election districts. There's also

Tompkins Square Park, the beating of Mario Rios by 15 police
officers, the Fierce Pussy Festival (that sounds like a Riot

still sorta amazed.
Although the Central Mailer decries Massive Media as bogus
information (yo, read more zines! Get a shortwave! Get a Net

reprints from Massive Media. While some of the contributors have
written long essays on particular subjects, most respond to
