Eat Your Spinach And Free Joe Gordon

In the words of the great American philosopher, Popeye the Sailor Man, “I've had all I can stand, I can't stands no more!”

That is the gist of an email I received earlier in the week from the president of the organization I am associated with: the Agents of the Free.  The American Orange Shirts are finally doing something as an organization about a tragedy of justice and requested my help in publicizing our latest campaign.

I enthusiastically accept the request.

American citizen Joe Gordon has been in jail four long months since Thailand’s Department of Special Investigations arrested him for the bogus offense of lese majeste. Accused of lese majeste, an offense that is punishable by up to 15 years in prison, Joe has been denied bail on eight different occasions. He maintains his innocence but is unable to help plan a defense because he is in jail.

Joe will be prosecuted as a Thai national although he lived in the United States at the time the police say he, among other things, posted a link on a web log in 2007 to the book “The King Never Smiles.”  

DSI Deputy Director General and jack booted sourpuss thug Yanaphon Youngyuen said that it does not matter which country Gordon lived in.

He also said that the Internet comes into Thailand and can be seen because it is in cyberspace. He says cyberspace has no boundary or country but has an impact on Thailand’s national security. He says it is clearly defined in Thai law.

Boy, what a big steaming pile of crap the DSI comes out with.

Four months in jail for an abominable law is four months too long.  Please join with the American Orange Shirts in their campaign to free Joe Gordon by participating in our “Write A Letter For Joe” campaign.
