As you probably already know, Tommy Chong, the high prince of Nice Dreams Enterprises, Inc., comedian and actor, salsa dancer and father to six, was arrested and imprisoned for selling beautiful art glassware on the Internet (actual charge was "interstate commerce" [note that term because it's all 'they' can regulate!];
specificically 'sales of drug paraphernalia across state lines'. As if throwing this intelligent, mature, responsible, harmless and talented man in prison weren't enough, "the DEA" shut down even the website he was using to display and sell his products! This is a clearly unwarranted violation of Tommy's Constitutional rights and shall not go ignored! It is one thing to prevent him from selling glassware he has allegedly admitted could be used "to smoke marijuana safely" (if in fact he ever even said that!), and quite another to violate his First Amendment Constitutional protections of his freedom of expression....)
So.....
As a remedy to this situation, I have made the entire Chong Glass cached website available at:
http://chongglassDEFUNCTSITE.now.nu
.
{original site was at http://www.chongglass.com}
.
NOTE: The PayPal links appear to work (!) but do not!!
(they disable the actual accounts at PayPal but leave the links up for some reason... probably overwhelmed with too many accounts and too few employees at PayPal to update the links)... at least this makes the site appear 100% authentic, as it originally was.
Check out the awesome selection of fine smoke-able artwork there, and help to raise the consciousness of freedom on the planet. Free Tommy Chong! (see my other post here about Tommy Chong and his religious inclinations... maybe he would make a great cannabis minister! :) )...
