Why can't they just leave this man alone for crying out loud. Seriously what has he done that is so wrong.They are using him as an example because he represents the drug culture some in the government feel.I had a chance to meet Chong with his wife once and I have to say that they where very nice people and he is a very intelligent and well spoken man.

He is nothing like his characters he plays on TV and movies.In my opinion it just shows how out of touch this joke of an administration is.

He and cheech come back here for "hash bash" in ann arbor every year.. So we get to hang out with them and BS at the store he owns here .. Cant believe they mess with the guy so much .. :/

The Federal Government media and thought control campaign lives on.

The documentary details Chong's 2003 federal prosecution and guilty plea for distributing drug paraphernalia.

Here again the Feds are abusing their authority. Enemies of the people and doing all they can to erase what they do, before the people wake up to their lies and bullcrap.

I hope this has the opposite effect and becomes and advertising campaign for Mr. Chong's DVD.

Long live the revolution of the dissemination of knowledge.
