Subject: Write to me in Jail
Did you know you can write to me in jail without ever having to leave your computer? Mail-to-Jail.com is a website where you can write letters to jailed activists such as drug war victim Beau Davis and me by simply typing a message and hitting send. It is run by activist Jay Denonville and support by donations to cover the costs of paper, stamps, and envelopes.
