OBJECTS TO ARREST
U.S. officials had Canadian officers arrest Internet marijuana seed
dealer Marc Emery. It seems clear that the U.S. thinks Emery and his
seeds are a much bigger threat to the status quo than, say, Osama Bin
Laden.
When they searched the home and business of Mr. Emery, by the way,
they failed to find any weapons of mass destruction, or Osama.
Just how far does their Patriot Act reach, and why do their laws reach
into our country? Should Canadians be more careful what we say on the
phone, over the Internet, or to our friends in public?
Could having anti-U.S. thoughts be considered an "act of
terrorism?"
It looks like the time has finally come where we should just take down
all the Canadian flags from courthouses and Parliament Hill and all
government buildings, and put Old Glory up in its place.
