THE POSTER BOY FOR FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION

Whether you love him or hate him, Tim Felger is a poster boy for
freedom of expression. When just one Canadian is being persecuted
because he expresses controversial opinions, we are all at risk and
our country is going to crap.

The great philosopher Voltaire said, "I disapprove of what you say,
but I will defend with my life your right to say it." Those days are
gone.

Germany persecuted the Jews because they spoke out against Hitler at a
time when the Nazis were popular. History proved the Jews right, but
they paid a heavy price for speaking out.

Abbotsford persecutes Felger because he speaks out against the
Abbotsford Police and outdated marijuana laws that are less popular
than Hitler ever was.

Canada's marijuana laws are a good example of the expression,
"Democracy is 51 per cent of the people taking away the rights of the
other 49 per cent."

I like marijuana and I use it when I feel like it. Marijuana is safe
and harmless when compared with legal alcohol and tobacco. It is by
far the healthier choice, and it is even prescribed as an effective
medicine. Nobody overdoses on this natural herb.

To be honest, the pot I smoked with Tim Felger was organically grown,
and it had a delicious minty flavour. God created the marijuana seed,
and we all have a God-given religious right to enjoy this wonderful
plant.

The 51 per cent will go to hell, and the peaceful marijuana community
will inherit the Earth.
