DescriptionTRENTON -- If the phrase "Big Brother is watching," rings true then a pro-marijuana activist running for New Jersey governor can relate to it.

The website of Ed "Weedman" Forchion may be on a list of favorites for state authorities.

Not long after Forchion posted a flyer on his site advertising a rally at the State Capital Building, which is planned for this afternoon, state police requested that he obtain a permit.

In an e-mail sent to the activist, Lt. Brian Crain of the State Police State House Complex Security Unit said troopers found out about Forchion’s plan for today’s march by monitoring his pro-marijuana website.

Crain said all groups of more than 10 "intending to gather/demonstrate at the State House must apply for a permit to gather." Forchion sent picture of his exposed backside in response to the Jersey trooper’s warning.
