your objection is that officers sworn to uphold the law, do so systematically instead of applying their authority in a totally arbitrary manner?

sorry, but it isn’t possible for you to be more wrong in this particular complaint.

NH Constitution, Part I, Art. 3:
“When men enter into a state of society, they surrender up some of their natural rights to that society, in order to ensure the protection of others; and, without such an equivalent, the surrender is void.”

Seems to me, the government has not not only failed to ensure the protection of Andy’s rights, but have instead actively violated them.

As such, Andy regains in full all of his natural rights. The surrender is void. They have freed him from any obligation to abide by any NH laws.

Paul,

I was speaking in a more generic historical sense which is rife with zealots and powermongers committing atrocities in the name of their deities. From the Crusades to the Inquisitions to the annihilation of the Templar, from the Salem Witch Trials to the plethora of disgraced evangelists of today, wicked men have abused those teachings, perverted them, shat on them and spilled the blood of believers, unbelievers and sinners alike.

The more-or-less peaceful version of Christianity (which is much more in-tune with Christ’s teachings than any version before it) is a recent development in comparison to the last 2000 years of historical events preceding it.

But as you said, perhaps it’s more of a discussion for the forum.

Zeus,

I disagree with your last statement. We really should have continued our earlier discussion — perhaps we can move it to the forum.

I believe many things are sins, including burning sinners.

In other news … go Andrew!!

You’ll find no argument here, Danielle. Each of us should be free to do what we wish with our own bodies and our justly acquired (not necessarily “lawfully acquired”) property so long as you aren’t harming someone else.

And that’s the problem with the drug war. The politicians, lobbyists and bureaucrats in Washington have bought the story that “Marijuana’s bad, mmmkay?” hook, line and sinker and feel they have the right to violently force their version of morality on you and your family regardless of the harm they cause, even if that harm is greater than the harm they perceived you to be causing.

When someone defines something as a “sin”, they have an inherent need to start burning the “sinners”.

“”The judge sentenced Andrew to $350.00 in fines and a 20% “penalty assessment” (a penalty for having been force-fed a penalty?), for a total of $420.00. Andrew politely said he refused to pay, so the judge ordered him to report to jail by June 2 (which was the time limit to apply for an appeal) to “serve” off his sentence in jail at the rate of $50.00 per day.”

This is perhaps the only way in which any positive gain can be derived from the State’s blindness to the laws of economics. If everyone decided to go to jail instead of paying fines for BS charges the state would go broke in only a few months. (assuming it’s a state that isn’t already broke).

You should think about printing up a few copies. Number them and get Andrew to sign them. Then donate them to the FSP Porcfest silent auction ( http://forum.freestateproject.org/index.php?topic=17304.0 ) or something similar.
