Thread Name: Form 696 - Anti music legislation
Subject: Form 696 and Chicago's Promoters' Ordinance
Chicago is also facing a similar ordinance Chicago Promoters Ordinance) that has the potential to destroy the independent music and arts community. For more info there is an excellent video documentary "Chicago's Promoters' Ordinance Kills Independent Music"

Humankind doesn't need nanny state policies to keep us safe, in favor of restrictive laws that replace our right to express ourselves freely. Bottom line is that NOTHING is going to keep you "safe" from anything. You may as well enact a law that prohibits the selling of peanuts because you can possibly choke on them.

We ALL need to stand strong on this garbage.
