WHAT DID YOU EXPECT FROM SNOOP DOGG?

Editor:

Re: Dec. 15 Roast about Snoop Dogg

First of all, you should have done your homework before attending the show, 
whether you were there to watch it or work it. I couldn't believe in the 
first place that Snoop Dogg was performing a concert in Lethbridge -- in 
the middle of the notorious "Bible Belt."

This is what Snoop Dogg promotes himself to be: he smokes the occasional 
doobie, he likes it and doesn't care what others think. You should have 
known this before attending; then you wouldn't be so upset about it if you 
didn't go. I am not at all surprised a select number of youth in Lethbridge 
attending the show smoked weed at the concert as well. Again, this IS Snoop 
Dogg we're talking about.

I'm sure Ashley Matthews was aware of what Snoop Dogg is all about, so 
don't go start using him as the scapegoat either. The lesson is to be your 
own censor. If you didn't agree with the fact the rapper enjoys smoking 
marijuana and sings about it in his songs, it is YOUR CHOICE as to whether 
you go to the concert or not.
