DEMONSTRATOR RIGHT TO PUSH FOR FREEDOM

I am writing to express my unequivocal support for the actions of retired
Professor Julian
Heicklen in his efforts to battle the horribly unjust laws against the use
of marijuana.

I hope everyone understands that Heicklen is taking these actions not
because he cares about
marijuana, but rather because he cares about freedom. Not having learned
our lesson from the
tragic results of this nation's first prohibition, we are now repeating
this mistake on an even
grander scale. Thousands of deaths and millions of ruined lives have been
caused by our second
prohibition.

The freedoms and rights of everyone have been greatly diminished through
such new procedures as asset forfeiture (where the police have the right to
legally rob the houses, cars and life savings of people who are not
convicted of any crime) no-knock warrants, roadblocks, wiretaps -- the list
goes on and on and gets longer every day.

Heicklen has offered his reputation to help bring about an end to these
great injustices. Everyone
who cares about freedom should stand in support of him and go to the
rallies to demand his
liberty.
