Defend Your Rights!

Anime News Network has published a pair of editorial articles from Veteran manga editors Carl Gustav Horn and Jason Thompson regarding the ongoing trial of Mr. Christopher Handley on obscenity charges over his possession of imported Japanese manga. The points made in these two editorials are rational, and should be already familiar to every manga and anime fan. But reading these points in clear, persuasive statements may serve as a motivating influence.

American consumers have always had a significant impact on the distribution and availability of manga and anime in America, and fans can have another meaningful impact in this case by donating to the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund to help Mr. Handley and all American comic & animation fans.
