But aren’t you a little bit techno ?

Some senators think techno music is a synonym for ‘exploitation of the american youth’. Or that any young person dancing to ‘loud, pounding dance music’ is inclined to purchase drugs.
And that, of course, these shortcut-thoughts make it worth proposing a bill, the RAVE Act (’Reducing Americans’ Vulnerability to Ecstacy’). Said bill would put you in jail just because you organised an event that features people dancing on loud, pounding dance music, whether it’s proven anyone actually dealt drugs during the event, or not.

This is making an interesting equality: techno=drugs.

I’m eagerly waiting for the next bills: country=beer, reggae=marijuana, linkinpark=scatology, and so on !

  1. Oh good grief. Just another way the government wants to control us yet again. I think that raves could more likely be linked to sexual perversion than use of drugs.
