Civil Disobedience to Occur in Keene District Court on 9/26

September 15, 2008 by Ian Freeman
Filed under: Announcement, Personal Freedom 

What: Attempted “Illegal camera panning”
Where: Keene District Court, 3 Washington Street, Keene, New Hampshire
When: Friday, Sept. 26, 2008. 7:45 a.m.
How: Videographer will attempt to man, and pan, his video camera during trial of Keene freedom activist. Camera movement is forbidden under
http://www.courts.state.nh.us/rules/dmcr/dmcr-1_4.htm
Judge Edward Burke has said he’ll begin enforcing the ban.

Why: There are two objectives…
1) Document Nick Ryder’s controversial refusal to pay traffic fine (something that can’t be done well without panning the camera)
2) Protest – and draw attention to – an unacceptable, actively enforced court rule that unnecessarily limits freedom of press

Who: Dave Ridley, 42, Manchester videographer

Open letter for Judge Edward Burke
Presiding Justice, Keene District Court:

Dear Judge Burke:

Your restraint and politeness in the handling of David Krouse’s civil disobedience case this spring…turned me into an unlikely fan. It was a reminder to liberty lovers that judges in New Hampshire tend to be less violent than those in other places.

However I’m concerned regarding your stated intent to begin enforcing a bizarre rule against video camera panning. In my fifteen years of service as a TV news videographer, I’ve never seen anything like it. To tell a videographer he can’t pan or tilt his camera…that’s like telling a writer she can’t hold a pen. It violates the spirit of a “speedy and *public* trial.” That’s dangerous.

Apparently this is a district court regulation, but it’s not acceptable and must be openly challenged. Unfortunately, I don’t have the skills, money or time to effectively use ‘the means the state has provided me for changing it’. So I’ll follow Thoreau’s example and undertake constructive disobedience.

Over the next few days, I will go through the usual process that a videographer undertakes to film in your chambers. I’ll seek clearance to record Nick Ryder’s speeding ticket hearing, currently scheduled for 8:30 a.m. September 26th. In the absence of emergencies or illness, I’ll attempt to enter the courtroom with my camera. I’ll try to follow any reasonable rules – and perhaps some unreasonable – that you may wish to impose. I’ll operate as unobtrusively as possible.

But I will not comply with the “pan ban,” or any rule that intolerably restricts a videographer’s ability to document this taxpayer-funded event.

If you forbid me from entering the courtroom with a camera, I’ll ignore the ban and repeatedly attempt peaceable entry. If allowed in, but ordered to cease panning, I’ll respectfully refuse to comply with the command. If ordered to leave the courtroom for any reason that seems unacceptable, I will politely decline. I’m ready to undergo arrest or detention, if that’s what it takes to bring attention to this First Amendment matter.

This is happening, not becuase of your decent treatment of Krouse, nor your allowance of cameras. I respect and appreciate those things; they were almost enough to stop me from bothering you with this. But your court’s unacceptable regulations on videographers, and your statement to Ryder indicating that you will begin enforcing them….makes this act of constructive disobedience imperitive.

You have various courses of action to pick from, but in the end…you will either allow me to aim and operate my camera in the courtroom or use force against a harmless citizen.

Yours,
Dave Ridley

    As a beginner videographer and a pro-liberty advocate, you have my support. I just wish I was already in New Hampshire to actually do something. Soon enough, though.

  2. Curt Springer on Tue, 16th Sep 2008 8:10 pm

    From the rules:
    (i) Restrictions . Unless otherwise ordered by the presiding judge, the following standing orders shall govern.

    . . . .

    (3) No camera movement during court session.

    . . . .

    The key phrase is “unless otherwise ordered by the presiding judge”. That means he could waive the rule. So instead of declaring your intention to flout his authority, why don’t you simply explain why it is important to be able to pan the camera, how it will not be obtrusive, point out to him (he might not be aware) that he has authority to waive the rule, and ask him to waive it for you?

    FWIW the Massachusetts law that permits video cameras at public meetings specifically requires that the camera be in a fixed location. There must be some rationale for this kind of thing, bogus or not.

    Also, the rules mention The petition of WMUR et al, which is the basis of the current rules. It’s interesting reading if you haven’t read it. If you don’t know about the “Smart” or “Tulloch” cases, ask any neighbor.

    Quoting from the decision:
    “WMUR Channel 9 and the Court TV Network submitted their own internal guidelines, which are followed by their media representatives covering a case. These internal guidelines are lengthy and detailed, covering everything from manner of dress and presence in the courtroom to types of cameras used and information recorded. Both sets of internal guidelines are not only consistent with, but are even more stringent than the guidelines presently set forth in Rule 78. These guidelines, which are based upon the electronic technology being used by the news media today, present a measured and thoughtful response to judicial concerns. ”

    It would be interesting to know what WMUR’s take is on the camera panning question. Do their own guidelines agree?

    With all due respect I disagree with you Curt and believe that freedom means being free to do whatever you wish so long as you don’t harm anyone.

    Any rule that would infringe on a individual’s right to do that which God has granted him the right to do ought to be challenged, regardless if it is with or without permission.

    Asking permission is only required when you don’t have the right to do something.

    I have to ask your permission before I do anything on your property, because I do not have a right to do anything on your property without your permission else I would violate your rights. With public property, it can be used any way one individual or another sees fit, such is the problem with public property.

    If individuals insist on public property, then they must accept that there will be times when two individuals wish to use the property differently then each other and then, and only then, must solve the dilemma of opposing two equal rights.

    To put in rules that neither party agreed upon and then use force to compel the parties to follow those rules is a crime and the initiator of force is acting as a criminal and while civilized people abhor violence, uncivilized people do not understand any other method.

    This post does not suggest, infer, accept, consent, or otherwise support the use of force against civilized individuals.

    I really wish people didn’t cite laws in defense of the existence of other groundless laws. Nowhere in Curt’s post was there any valid reason given to why panning a camera should be forbidden. The reality is that “legal professionals” are simply the highwaymen of the avenues of justice and the concessions demanded to be involved with the system are simply the fraudulent tolls they demand. For all Curt says about “common law” in other posts, he never concedes the fact that there is nothing “common” about case law. It is nearly inaccessible to the layman, and those who have the knowledge of it have to be inspected, registered, and pay a licensing fee. They have to ask permission to apply their knowledge of this ridiculous injustice system. And as far as not panning the camera, it reeks of favoritism toward networks with connection who get the good roosting spots. Justice should NOT be blind – madly, aimlessly hacking with some sword of truth and using those inflicted wounds as some sort of standard by which to judge all other applications of justice. Justice should be wide-eyed and never blinking – certain of her enemy and precise with her cuts. The camera eye can do that, sealed doors in “hallowed halls” cannot.

  5. Curt Springer on Wed, 17th Sep 2008 5:00 pm

    To be blunt, I think Ridley is tilting at windmills. The term “civil disobedience” evokes images of Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King. But those people fought for real issues, not trivialities. All over the world people are being killed or imprisoned or tortured for speaking their minds or asserting their rights. The fact that you can only come up with panning cameras or walking in public parks after hours as “causes” confirms that we are in the 99.9th percentile in NH as far as freedom goes.

    As for the specific question of camera panning, just because Ridley can’t think of a good reason to ban it doesn’t mean that there isn’t a good reason. Or at least a reason. I don’t see any evidence that he has made any inquiry as to why the rule exists. As for asking permission, the court system gave a thoughtful response to the WMUR petition and changed its rules in light of the arguments that were presented. It seems to me that if this panning thing were really an impediment to journalism, WMUR would have pursued it. How is it that WMUR can see fit to comply (presumably) but Ridley can not?

    What I find scary in NH at this time is the assertion that a fire chief (Allenstown) has authority to order people to leave their homes, that the district court decided he did not, and now the town and the attorney general’s office are working together to assert that he does. I’d like to see you guys work that issue if you are so inclined, although most likely it will be handled by the NHCLU.

  6. Curt Springer on Wed, 17th Sep 2008 8:40 pm

    PS:
    Some time after posting the above, I recalled that Ridley did ask the judge why he could not pan in one of the videos posted here. I don’t think the judge had an answer other than the rules are the rules. But I don’t think he was asking the right guy. It should be noted that he was only allowed to bring the camera into the courtroom at all because WMUR et al had ***asked*** the court system to change the rules. I think he would do well to try to talk to somebody at WMUR who was involved in the court petition and get their take on the camera movement thing before going confrontational.

  7. The Central Scrutinizer on Wed, 17th Sep 2008 10:57 pm

    reply to Curt.

    The case you mentioned in Allenstown is unbeknown to me and I will definitely look into it. The thing about our circle is that we’re ready and willing to support whatever avenue of activism our friends and allies decide to take. The couch enforcement was thrust upon Ian, he didn’t seek it out and we will support his disobedience to that. Russell is trying the avenue of non-compliance with drivers license and registration; we will support him in that. Dave Ridley does park walks to show how asinine some laws really are and how civil rational people are. He is also demonstrating the hypocrisy of government officials and claims to fair use of private land, as in the case of the Post Office Standoff. Another Dave decided to set up a pirate hot dog stand; we supported his efforts to display the irrationality of the enforcement of victimless crime laws. I am planning an illegal hiking sojourn through the area mountains for the very same reason. We’re not trying to cause trouble, we’re not being obnoxious and childish or poking at the hornets’ nest. A fully liberated man walks tall and proud with confident and powerful steps and the small steps we’re taking now are to make it so we will not have to walk alone any longer.

  8. The Central Scrutinizer on Wed, 17th Sep 2008 11:07 pm

    correction: fair use of PUBLIC land. gotta learn to proofread.

  9. FormerSpook on Thu, 18th Sep 2008 11:14 am

    Dave, Here’s another idea that you might consider employing to overcome the Judge’s objection.

    If he states that the “no pan” rule is enforced because the Judge believes the motion of the camera will cause distractions in the courtroom, consider using technology to overcome the objection. There are cameras available that pan/tilt/zoom without any moving parts or externally visible motion. Here is an example:

    http://www.axis.com/products/cam_212/show.htm#ptz

    You could either propose using this technology to the Judge or just go ahead and use it without notifying the court that you are panning via software…He’ll never know because the camera doesn’t move…Use technology to beat the system lol

  10. Elkheart179 on Mon, 22nd Sep 2008 9:55 am

    I sort of agree with all of you. The whole “no camera movement” rule in Jumanjiville/Kangaroo/Keene District, & the Cheshire County Circus Superior Court, etc., is to prevent, say, a “steady-cam” operator from walking around trying to get close-ups…I really respect & appreciate you guys & the great work you do, but really, you’re all so ideologically indoctrinated (Whether “Federalist”, or “anarchist”…), that you qualify as *BONEHEADS*! Hey, Judge Burke, just how much $$$ was in that envelope I gave you in Toadstool Bookshop here in Keene? You opened it in my presence. Gee, maybe your staff should have opened it, after all…Remember when the Legal Club of America assigned me as my personal attorney, *PETER HEED*???…or how I called John Byrnes in response to his Sentinel Letter, & had a PETER HEED campaign lawn sign the next morning? Any legal scholars out there? Look up N.H.Supreme Court docket #97-537. Whaddya find??? Hmmm….Ve-eery interseting! (…but stupid…)…*(*grin*)*…Elkheart…

  11. elkheart on Mon, 22nd Sep 2008 10:45 pm

    Here’s some more on our local Kangaroo Court, & why you guys are so, so so, BONEHEADED! You wanna challenge the cameras-n-courts rule. OK. Fine. You’re free to waste your time….Try doing something *(*REAL*)* for a change. Don’t you know about the “Mental Health Court Project”???….How about our Hispino/Latanic Police Persecuter??? Um, I mean “police prosecuter”??? Look in the book “In Pursuit of Justice”, which is the history of the KPD. In it, Eliezer Rivera is identified as *HISPANIC*. But, a couple years ago, he was identified in the Sentinel as “Latino”. Are they really the same thing? Wanna hear about a bully w/a badge? Read about Eli. He was in my class @ Franklin Pierce/Keene Campus, in 1996. Abused his authority to conspire to have me kicked off campus. Threatened to arrest me. I walked home crying. Hey, Eli, did you forget about the file I supposedly “stole”?…never even thought to ask about it, didja’???…How about a totally fraudulent arrest on Christmas Eve, 2005. The year my Dad died. The year Eli, in uniform, w/a couple other punks in tow, served a totally fraudulent “tresspass notice” to me. In my home. Based on the word of a guy w/no, repeat *NO* legal basis to even *BE* there? Eli & Randy Tefft(Tefft left – finally retired, thank GOD!…)both conspired to effect a fraudulent arrest of myself at the Cherry Garden Restaurant. The employees there said we “didn’t know each other”…whatever…Mervyn Frink stole my $30 bail money. It’s legal. He’s allowed to steal $$$ fraudulently, because the COPS SAID IT’S OK!…Guess ole’ Eli couldn’t *PROSECUTE*, & *TESTIFY* that he was a “VICTIM” in the *SAME* case. I guess some things are just too crooked even for a Kangaroo Court! And Howard B. Lane Jr.???…The “special justice” of Kangaroo Dist. Court??? Just what *IS* a “special justice”???…After my arraignment, I made it very clear to Lt. Peter Thomas that I was *NOT* interested in “mental health court”…It’s blatantly *UNCONSTITUTIONAL*! Uh, 5th Amendment??? Equal Protection Clause??? Prohibitions against discrimination based on disability???…Gee, guess “mental illness” isn’t a disability in Kangaroo Court…more later….

  12. Elkheart on Tue, 23rd Sep 2008 8:33 am

    “20 YEARS of OFFICIAL OPPRESSION: My time in the *(*GULAG*)* of : Jumanjiville/Kangaroo/Keene District Court & Cheshire County Circus Superior Court Games, w/a round or 2 of NH Supreme Court, & the system as a whole. Part 3. Today, I’m going to write a brief history of my experiences w/the cops-n-courts game here in Keene. Because my Court Record is, or at least should be, an open, Public Record, I’m going to give my real name here, so anybody interested enough can see it for themselves. What can they do??? Make my “Criminal Record” dissappear??? Alter it more than they have??? There’s so much crap in there…Bradford Hutchinson. After 1996, the spelling changed to “Hutchingson”. Either spelling is correct. Also, maybe some of you can take a little Native American English lesson. Much of what I do read on here, & in the Keene Free Press, makes me wonder which language you people spoke at home, before you learned American English. Anyway, after I got kicked out of the State Mental Hospital in June, 1987, I returned to Keene. The “plan” that MFS – Monadnock Family Services – had for me was simplicity itself. “Stay in the homeless shelter until I get an apartment & job”. Gee. thanks guys. …I’m still recovering from a near-fatal toxic prescription drug withdrawal, I can hardly move, & thinking is worse…I did finally get a bed in “Emerald House”, @32 Emerald St., here in Keene. It’s still there. &Mfs “drug zombies” still wander aimlessly & harmlessly around Keene…Sandy Chase, Maryann Gallagher, & Jean Andrews, a trio of *(*MAN-HATING DYKES*)*, kicked me out on the street w/no, *NO* notice, because I insisted on protecting another resident. Sadly, I watched “DB” die a slow death from Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome. (Ironically, her sister was later killed in a head-on car crash in Dublin, caused by the Lesbian president of KSC, who steadfastly refused to accept *ANY* personal responsibility, despite blowing a .09 Blood Alcohol Content. She hid out w/her lesbian lover in Walpole…at least that “crowd” didn’t succeed in getting sports eliminated @ KSC, which they tried hard to do. GO OWLS! KSC Sports RULES!..)After getting kicked out of Emerald House, I held on 2 or 3 months, then I found myself drunk, & drinking daily & heavily, after 5 years of sobriety. I got sober in 1991, & I remain a recovered alcoholic today, one day at a time, thanks, God. The next 4 years were on-again-off-again drinking & dysfunction. MFS was pumping the “meds” into me…& playing “musical meds”, & “musical doctors”…God only knows how many different drugs & head-shrinkers I saw in those years. My story w/MFS is, sadly, typical for them. I’ll show how they fit in later. The “Mental Health Court” is largely a creation of MFS, & “N.A.M.I”, the *National Alliance of the Mentally Ill*, & the local Republican cabal…Has Mr. Joseph Manning of Jaffrey finally gotten his *FASCIST* mitts out of Concord???… My first round of cops-n-courts games came in 1989/1990. After I lost my job driving a Keene Sentinel van, due mainly to my alcoholism,..(btw: Yes, I drove that van drunk. Many times. The cops would just look the other way. They knew…), I had to move out of the room I was renting from a really very nice “little old lady” here in Keene. She’ll remain anonymous here, because she was a victim of Kangaroo Justice, just as much as I. She sued me for the rent I owed when I moved out. OK. Fine. But she sued for much, much more $$$ than I owed her. At the “hearing”, presided over by Howard B. Lane, Jr., himself an active drunk, at least then, (yes, *I* smelled the booze on him! In *COURT*!!!), he ruled 100% in her favor, despite my showing him a photocopy of the actual cashed check from “Keene City Welfare”, to this woman, paying her, in my behalf, for some of the rent I owed her. Your tax dollars at waste…Later, she brought me back to Court to force me to pay. There’s an bogus arrrest in there, somewhere, but remember, I was still a drunk, & memories from that time are cloudy… NH Legal Assistance, in the form of Ms. Sophie Sparrow, later used both me, & my case, to help write new case law. Made me a pseudonym in the citation, too! I’d gotten my Social Security Disability Insurance by then, & that was my sole source of income. That’s why, right or wrong, I do indeed thank, & am grateful to, the *FEDERAL GOV’T*. Call me a Neo-Federalist, I don’t care. Ms. Sparrow’s assertion(correct, btw…) to Kangaroo Court was, that they can’t touch my Federal Disability in *ANY* civil tort claim…pissed ‘em off, it did. Made me look bad, & gave “them” all the more reason to persecute me. The only relevant issue was simply, how much had I paid, how much did I owe???…Again, remember, the Plaintiff was “double-dipping”, trying to get the same $$$ from 2 different sources. Only the intervention of the Hon. Richard J. Talbot(ret.) saved that debacle. Richard Talbot is another old drunk like me, & despite his entanglement in the cops-n-courts game, he’s a decent guy at heart. I sincerely wish him well. So that episode passed…more later…

  13. Elkheart on Tue, 23rd Sep 2008 9:05 am

    Jumanjiville/Kangaroo/Keene Cops-n-Courts games, Part 4: In 1991, I finally got a housing voucher from KHA – Keene Housing Authority – which got me a small apartment here in Keene. NH Supreme Court docket# 97-537 arose from there, but that’s later…I had a neighborly dispute with my downstairs neighbor. I knew him from his job at the local loony bin. “4 South”, or MHU (Mental Health Unit), part of Cheshire Medical Center, now “dba” Dartmouth/Hitchcock, whatever name they’re using now…the cops were called 2 or 3 times. I was drunk. I was wrong. My neighbor & I worked it out, & never had any trouble afterwards. *BUT*, a few weeks later, I was walking home, drunk, after dumpster diving some bicycle parts. Mr Norm Sweeney ran Norms’ Bike Shop for years. He gave me, after I aske him, permission to salvage used bicycle parts from his dumpster. I had some old bicycle wheels. I saw a cop stopping a DUI suspect downtown. Suddenly, a cop ran up & grabbed me. I had no idea why. He threw me in the back of the cruiser, along w/the drunk driver…So at 1:30AM, down at KPD, “Sturdy” Thomas calls Norm, wakes him up, pisses him off, & confirms my story. I told him so….but, he wouldn’t listen…that’s a theme here…these people, they only hear what they want to hear, & disregard the rest. I was denied bail, because I “hadn’t lived in my apartment long enough”, according to Tina Carbonaro, bailbonds person. I later lived there almost 7 years, until NH Sup. CT. docket #97-537. Later on that…Maybe it’s the same “Sturdy” Thomas who is now Keene Police Prosecuter(only sometimes…other times it’s Eli..), but I think that was his Dad. I could be wrong. Whatever. I also had a small marijauna pipe in my pocket. Too bad. If I’d had any marijauna at the time, I’d been home in bed, not out wandering around drunk! So it goes…KPD tried(successfully???…) to “piggy-back” a posession of marijauna charge onto the “paraphrenalia” rap…So whatever you think of the current ~$40million County Jail Complex, at least the jail head, Mr. Van Wickler(sp?…)is a member of “LEAP” – Law Enforcement Against Prohibition. That was just the beginning. If I knew then what I know now, & knowing now what I know now, I’m going for a coffee. Part 5 later…

  14. Elkheart on Tue, 23rd Sep 2008 12:39 pm

    Jumanji-ville/Kangaroo/Keene GULAG, Part 5: Any serious discussion of the local courts must include some discussion of the local community which allows these abuses to occur. A local community which perpetuates these abuses to their own ends. Keene is overwhelmingly “Democrat” in population, but the “Republicrats” hold key positions of power. Think of Keene, & Cheshire County as being the “California of NH”…Overwhelmingly “Liberal/Democratic” populations, w/”Conservative/Republican” Gov’ts. Plus, Keene & the Monadnock region have grown increasingly “Yuppie” – flatlanders & other people w/far more $$$ than sense! They will bend whichever way the political wind blows. No backbone, doncha’ know???…And, yes, rather than a tool for justice, the courts have too often allowed themselves to be used as **WEAPONS** against various persons & groups. Lots of folks shirking their responsibility there…I know, because people have used the courts as a weapon against *ME*! (Did you see in the Sentinel recently, that Ruth Ewing got her very own plaque put up at 17 93rd St., the local Nazi Party/Monadnock Family Services office??? I’ll show later how **exactly** alike are the methods of the Nazis, & MFS. Ms Ewing looks like another perfectly nice “little old lady”, but I’m sure that she has only been fed what “they” want her to hear. If she knew the **whole** MFS story, I’m sure she’d sing a different tune. A eulogy, or elegy, perhaps a dirge…) So let’s look at Howard B.”the Duck” Lane, jr.: When my parents sold the family home at 61 Park Ave., here in Keene, it was bought by Lane, jr., where he lived for 25 or 30 years of drunken, unfaithful marriage. Wanna hear about the time a KPD officer found an unlocked back door on a local business, and, being the good cop he was/is, went to investigate a possible burglary, went inside, & found Howard B. Lane Jr. screwing the owners’ wife??? What a way to get a judge “in your pocket”!…or the drunk driving incident involving Howard & his partner-in-crime Douglas “KKK” Watson??? I met Dougs’ father, Bill, before he died a few years ago. Great man. Greeter at his Church. The Keene “UU” Church…((The shenanigans of the Keene Unitarian Universalist Church would itself make a book!…& I joined twice! Yes, I’m a member of that church. Not proud of the fact, tho…You’ve heard the old line, “Church is a hospital for sinners, not a museum for saints”??? Too bad they don’t have an ICU or Trauma Center! I’ll mention the **FASCIST/REPUBLICAN** in disguise, Mr. Tim Robertson, yes, *THAT* Tim Robertson, only in passing, here. His name pops up later. He’s a “family friend” from childhood, who took me out in the first Datsun 240Z to come to Keene. 120 MPH out on Rt. 9! WOO-HOO!…)…The Robertsons, & the Watsons, among many others, are multi-generational local families. Their ties to the local community are vast & intricate…))…So Dougie Watson was the “Lawyer” for an older couple who were evicting me, in re: NH Sup Ct. 97-537. I did **my** homework! At the “hearing on the merits”, as it’s called, I was introducing exhibits & evidence on *MY* behalf, that Dougie **should** have been introducing on *HIS* clients’ behalf! I did *MY* job, & *MOST* of his, too! At one point in the official recording, Howard Lane actually says to Dougie: “Doug, w/his(meaning my…)appellate rights, we could still be here 2 years from now!”…Another way of saying “Doug, get your head out of your butt, & help me out here! I’m only the Judge! I can only manipulate outcomes just so far…” I really feel bad, that the older couple wasted so much $$$ on Dougie Watson…But, getting back in history, Doug & his father William(Bill)Watson, were in practice together as attorneys. Maybe dad was covering for his son, or they were in on the scam together, or whatever. But, basically, Dad spent 2 years in jail for his son Dougs’ crimes. How can the Cheshire Co. Bar Association let these guys continue to practice??? **GOOD OLE’ BOY NETWORK** See, you Freestaters don’t know all the local history! How could you??? It’s all white-washed & covered up! Scape-goated. Denied. And, you people, all of you, me included, allow this to happen…I know what I’m doing about it. What are you doing about it? Oh, yeah, cameras in the courtroom…go team, go…duh……………………………….More Public Disclosure: At the recent Primary, I voted @ Wheelock school here in Keene. (Ironic, &just a coincidence, I’m sure, yeah, right, that KPD officer Brian Costa was there to speak w/me, & confirm that it was indeed my brother Steve, *not* my mother, who took out the 2nd bogus “no trespassing” notice against me…N E weigh…)…On a blue ballot, I wrote in three “pink ballot names”, under their correct, respective races: Thomas Eaton, Peter Heed, Richard Foote. For Geriatric Daycare in Concord, County Attorney, & Sheriff, I think they do a fine job. A “Foote” is no “Fish”, true, but…times change. I assume Sheriff Foote is still a McCain supporter, as am I. Too bad about Nancy Palin, huh? Guess the Republi-crats wanted to ensure their loss this time. As for County attorney, anybody else notice how quickly Billy “the Kid” Albrecht disappeared???…On the ballot for re-election, then, too late for name removal, an announcement: “I’m not running for re-election, after all”…Exactly 2 weeks later(can you say “2 weeks notice”???…)he announces he’sa not even finishing out his term! Sold his house & left town! What’d he do to me? How about stalling & footdragging an appeal from Kangaroo Court for 18+ months! (Read the Courts’ own rules on appeals. After …”…6 months,a hearing **SHALL BE** held, to determine whether the defendents’ speedy trial rights are being violated.” William Albrecht stalled that case 1 1/2 *YEARS*!!!…&”Judge” John-boy Arnold accused me of firing 4 lawyers! **SCREW YOU, JUDGE ARNOLD, & YOUR WHOLE @!%*((#!%&*)@$% (inferior)SUPERIOR CIRCUS COURT!!!…(did you or your bailliff get the photo I handed her, of the mother who committed suicide, while at Cheshire Hospital, under the “care” of Dr. Roger Siouffey of MFS, to her son???…) “They” probably sealed *THAT* case, too!…So it goes…next, Part 6…

  15. Elkheart on Tue, 23rd Sep 2008 12:47 pm

    Jumanjiville GULAG, Part 6: Bradford goes for a nice walk & bicycle ride on this fine day…Why’d the cops do *THAT* to him???….Why couldn’t they just leave him alone??? He wasn’t bothering anybody…Welcome to AmeriKKKa, children. (In the mid 1930’s, the KKK held a charity baseball game out at Alumni Field. The Historical Society has a poster from the event…See what I mean about *HISTORY*???…Are you aware that the KKK was/is virulently *anti-Roman Catholic*??? That cult in Richmond isn’t even Roman Catholic, which really bugs my old atty, Ted “Theodore” Parent. SCREW YOU TOO, TED!!!…) Shouting in all caps does make me feel better, but it’s not very productive…So…next, PART 7!…

    To allay all your petty little fears, I have no intention of being at JUMANJIVILLE/KANGAROO/KEENE District Court this Friday morning, or ever again. Sure, you *COULD* send out the Goon Squad, & bring me in bloody, battered & shackled, but really, I don’t think that that is what any of us really want. I want to never have to deal with your fucking cops-n-court bullshit, ever again. NEVER! But, ah, you’re not GOD, either…so, GOD Bless America, & GODDAMN the BUSHPUPPET REGIME!~elkheart~…

Tell me what you're thinking...
