Hollywood,
CA - Celebrity cannabis culprit, Ed
Forchion aka NJWeedman is planning to
celebrate freedom and independence as only he can. In

host a special Independence Day celebration in Hollywood
with his Hollywood Hills Hemp Mansion Party.
The spectacular will take off with a bang on Saturday,
July 3 from 8:30 pm to 4:00 am. Fireworks
will certainly explode as live music, dj's, food, dance, libation and
smoke all collide in a revelry of merriment while saluting this
country's basic tenets of liberty and justice for all.
Shuttle service and
parking will be provided at 8560 Sunset Blvd in West
Hollywood, and party revelers will be whisked away to a
private hill top mansion location. Tickets can be purchased at www.GrooveTickets.com,

.
For additional details go to www.njweedmanpromotions.com . Proceeds
from the evening's celebration will go toward the "Free
NJWeedman Legal Defense Fund" to assist with legal experts,
travel and lawyer fees as Forchion is currently engaged in a battle
with the state of New Jersey in his latest court case as he defends his right to
smoke medical marijuana.
A self determined
exile, activist and former political prisoner, Forchion relocated
to sunny California just a few years ago to enjoy the benefits of the
state's more relaxed marijuana laws, per the passage of the Prop.
215 Compassionate Use Act of
1996 and SB420. Popularly recognized as the New Jersey Weedman, Forchion's dual residency between
California
and New Jersey has catapulted his celebrity status. A
devout Rastafarian, Forchion owns and operates the Liberty Bell Temple,
a Rastafarian
religious temple, located at 5642 Hollywood Blvd. in
Hollywood, CA that provides medical marijuana
to congregants
and patients.
He is also fighting a court case in New Jersey after
being arrested for the possession
of marijuana while on a trip to visit his family in New
Jersey on April
Fools Day.
"America has long been
heralded as the land of the free and home of the brave," offers
NJWeedman. "Independence Day holds a special significance for me.
My Temple, the Liberty Bell Temple, was named to represent the basic concepts
of democracy and faith. As I travel between the two coasts from
east to west, I am able to observe the concepts in full contrast.
On the west coast I am able to legally provide
and partake in the practice of indulging medical marijuana. On the
east coast I am fighting for my freedom, with a prison term
hanging over my head. The concept of freedom is in
total contrast from coast to coast. But I am
grateful for the opportunity to explore and exploit the legal dualities
and the Independence Day version of the Hollywood
Hills Hemp party on July 3
will be a ringing celebration of the contradictions I am experiencing!"
