FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: August 25, 1997
Curfew Protest in the Gas Lamp
San Diego, CA -- The Campaign to Repeal the
Curfew held a protest march in the Gas Lamp
District last Saturday night. More than 70
anti-curfew protesters marched through the popular
night spot chanting slogans such as, "This is
America, where's our freedom?" The chanting and the
sheer size of the march, which stretched for more
than one city block, combined to make a powerful
political statement.
"This was our most successful protest march,"
said Dave Doctor, organizer of the campaign. "We
had more than 70 protesters and everyone remained
peaceful. Our campaign is about giving honest
people, like the ones who were here tonight, the
freedom which they deserve."
Doctor said that protests maintain a free
society. "Without protests, women, Blacks, and
those people who are 18, 19, and 20 years old,
would not be able to vote," said Doctor. "Our
campaign will ensure that people under the age of
18 have the fundamental freedom to peacefully
assemble. In San Diego, hanging out will not be a
crime."
The campaign's next protest is Saturday night,
August 30th, at 10 p.m., in Mission Bay Park,
across from the Belmont Roller Coaster.
