WHEN THE LAW IS BROKEN BY THE MAJORITY, THE LAW MUST BE ABOLISHED

Editor, The News:

The Supreme Court of Canada has spoken, or as the federal prosecutor said,
there is "no free-standing right to get stoned."

I think his comments were captured on the way to the pub to celebrate his
victory over the evil herb marijuana.

While our legislators commonly get drunk and endanger lives, like our own
Hawaiian Punched Premier Gordo or Alberta's Happy Hour Klein, whose idea of
fighting poverty is to throw rocks at it, it is illegal to sit back and
enjoy a non-violent, calming joint in the privacy of your own home.

Given the choice, I'll take the "munchies" over driving around drunk and
looking for fights anytime.

I am to tell my children that their father is a criminal, my friends are
criminals and their friends are criminals.

All because our government is too dumb to see, let alone read, the writing
on the wall.

When a law is ignored or broken by the majority of the people, the law must
go.
