Free Keene

Thank you to everyone who contributed to yesterdays first Free State Food Drive.
We collected over 90 items of food for the local community kitchen . That is (Read on …)

I uploaded this live to Free Keene yesterday. Seven camo military humvees with men and women in camo, some of them armed, stopped off at the T-Bird on West St. to grab food and drink, then headed northwest up Route 12. Kind of a scary sight.

I’d like to take a moment to remind our readers that Free Keene is a peaceful movement. I want mankind to evolve naturally and peacefully to the voluntary society. Liberty loving people will never threaten you if you don’t join our way of life. We won’t lower ourselves to the level of the government people. They are the ones willing to hurt peaceful people and aggress against their neighbors. Always remember who resorts to violence to get their way: the men and women calling themselves the state.

Here’s the footage:

Nine liberty activists attended a rally against sweatshop labor and abuse in third-world countries at Keene State College on Saturday, March 28. Many of the activists spoke to the organizer and asked questions during the rally’s Q&A session.

Though the rally seemed to support increased regulation (one speaker advocated forcing factory owners to pay “fair wages” to their workers), the organizer and audience seemed very receptive to the activists’ proposals, including abolishing trade regulations and using voluntary means to improve working conditutions.

The organizer offered us a chance to speak to the crowd of about 40. I talked about how freedom and voluntary action are the best path to improving laborers’ working conditions. Other activists interviewed students and distributed information.

Our participation in the rally helped set a standard that anyone who advocates coercion will soon discover: advocate the initiation of force, and liberty activists will show up to advocate freedom!

There are so many liberty activists working behind the scenes at Free Minds TV that they have launched their own spoof/spin off, “FreeK Minds TV”. Enjoy the inane banter of hosts Tobias and Mocknick as well as phone calls from God:

Copwatch was out today to witness a police cruiser shoot across central square to drive behind a suspect all the way down Main Street. While approaching the roundabout, he pulls her over. She stumbles during the “walk the line” test, and claims that her body size makes it difficult for her to walk a straight line. While being put into the cruiser, she looks over to me, and says “Thank You.”

While I must commend the police for taking dangerous drivers off roads, my question, to anyone who knows: where is the breathalyzer? Is it back at the police station? Some method to determine beyond an officer’s judgment that someone really is driving impaired.

I was just thinking about why I’m so happy here in New Hampshire after moving here as a participant in the Free State Project. I’ve talked about it many times before. There’s something very empowering about taking hold of your own destiny and shaping it into what you want. Most people are simply reactionary. They end up wherever they end up because it’s close to where they grew up or they got a job that required them to move. Not many people make a conscious effort to think about about the kind of people they want to associate with and the kind of place where they want to live.

When asked to describe a good anarchist, Karl Hess said, “Good neighbor, good lover, good friend.”  If Free Staters could regularly display those qualities to the inhabitants of our chosen home, it would go a long way to dispel the image of wild-eyed bomb-throwing conspirators that some probably have.

With that in mind, I’d like to suggest making the first Monday of each month a special Good Neighbor Day.  In addition to the FIJA pamphleteering at the courthouse, there are a variety of possible activities, from (Read on …)
