Pardon John Brown
May 9th 2009

Abolitionist John Brown was born 209 years ago today.

Brown was hanged for treason December 2, 1859.
If freeing slaves is treason, we should all be guilty.

Now - 209 years after this good man's birth, it's time we insist he be posthumously pardoned.

"He did not recognize unjust human laws, but resisted them."
"No man in America has ever stood up so persistently and effectively for the dignity of human nature."

Henry David Thoreau
