Obscured Truth Network’s coverage of the mass arrests that took place at the Nashua 420 celebration over Liberty Forum Weekend.

During a peaceful 420 celebration in Nashua, a young local man was targeted for arrest by undercover police. This was followed by the arrests of two activists who fell victim to a gross overreaction on behalf of the Nashua Police. All three were released a few hours later, and arraignment dates have been posted on the Free Keene Forum. Curtis, who attended the Nashua 420 on Saturday, despite a recent back injury which had restricted him to a wheelchair, was arrested on Tuesday during another Nashua 420 celebration. He is currently still being held in jail. Check back to FreeKeene for updates on Curtis’ status.

Damn! That video is a beautiful piece of work.
Good job also to the folks there that tried to have a fun day in the park until the king’s men arrived to shut it down.

so odd that you would mention the kingsmen (the singers of louie, louie)…

i was just telling someone earlier today about how mike mitchell, guitarist from the kingsmen, lived next door to me when i was younger… i babysat his kids.

anywho, yeah, i love this video. i cried making it. nashua pd are not going to be happy if they continue to enforce these bs laws to the fullest.

Exactly what the movement needs – production value! Great work Sam and Meg.

Let it be noted, that Nausea’s (“nashua”) “police reaction” to the later 420 protests was much more low-key than the first one, video-taped & digitalized so well here. We must maintain the integrity of video evidence for use in Federal Civil Rights Violation cases against these GOON SQUAD tactics…That Nausea PD was turned from raging LEO’S run amok, into little pussy cats & kittens, is largely thanks to the efforts of ALL OF US!!!…Go stand in front of your mirror, and look at the more free future we are all creating. May God Bless you all, and may Karma rain down kindness upon you. Blessed be, my children!…I SUPPORT THE ONGOING MILITARY COUP. WE’VE BEEN SEEN. WE’RE GREEN. GET USED TO IT! (Besides, we make great childcare workers, and art teachers…..
