This is ridiculous. Have they never heard of The Anarchist's Cookbook? I've seen it on the shelf of the local large bookstore, though now I'm not sure whether I want to admit to buying a copy.
A friend of a friend has it on the kitchen shelf along with her other cookbooks :-) Unfortunately, cops don't seem to have figured out that Anarchy isn't against the law, it's just opposed to it.
Have they not yet discovered rec.pyrotechnics? (Shhhh! They've only discovered child-porn and rec.humor so far; next they'll figure out the pyros and pagans are there, and then they'll decide some nonsense about talk.religion violating separation of church and state and go after Phil Karn for creating it :-)

A few years back a freind of mine was busted for putting up anarchistic grafiti on some public buildings. He told the judge he was voicing his political opionions which was protected by the 1st amendment. Rather than retort with "then keep it to newspapers and kiosks", the judge actually told him that he was free to advocate any government system he wanted, but advocating no government was not protected. Granted, boulder county's is not nessesarily the most authoritive court in the country, but it is interesting that a judge would actually say this. brad
