Tuesday, October 20, Day 19
Today, I’m a bit irked; why do I never cease to be amazed? SO, here is how I’m starting to see why they are so incentivized to cage people for whatever they want here in NH.… This facility is quite literally giving slave labor to the COuntry Nursing Home just across the street so they can say to the tax payers “look what wonderful things we are doing for you!” The salves… ahhh, ahem! I mean “inmates (wink) are punished for rotten and awful things such as “not asking permission to drive to work to feed their family” or “self medicating” by inhaling the smoke of a burning plant. If you think the Military Industrial COmplex has a good gig then this stuff happening in your backyard really takes the cake… and we all know what happens if you say that you disagree with it… you soon are framed in some bologna conspiracy to be shamed into slavehood, never to make a peep against the establishment gang of things again… “Use the system!” they exclaim or “you’re not going about it the right way!” Well, I now see it this way: imagine for a moment that you are on the Peaceful Pirates baseball team and you are scheduled to play a game against Beelzebub’s Braves. As you are warming up, the umpire arrives, stumbling over home base carrying a white cane and wearing a pennant reading “Go Braves Go!” The umpire shouts “PLAY BALL!” What are you going to do? The ump is obviously blind and favors the opposing team. If you move into position to play and do not object to the umpire, you’ve accepted him and the decisions he makes. If you object to the blind umpire, you expose his deficiencies… thank you Paul [Roane?] and Deb Kalinowski for leading me through this so far. (more…)

Monday, October 19, 2009, Day 17
Not being on death row is exciting! Okay, I can hardly contain my excitement, even through day 17 of head and neck wrenching pain. The word from some of the guys (and the guards asked me not to share their names 🙂 ) I have been reported to about Yadra, Yahoo (or “Hey You”) and “Maddox.” I know Yadra, but I’m not yet sure who the others the government educated guards are calling “Free Staters.” The word is that they are not “giving out their real names”… Um, why on earth do that and who are you to demand it or lock a human in a cage until they say uncle? Yes folks, they are being tenacious in their quest to expose yet more awful deficiencies (do they do ANYTHING good? (or well)) of the system of top down thuggery.
One thing I want you all to know is that even the warden came and saw me early on. It was the following Monday when according to Van Wickler, the Sentinel was on the way. Well, I couldn’t then (and still can hardly walk more than 6 feet without excruciating back/neck/head pain) walk and because the left side of my face was still all bruised and I would be requiring the ONE filthy wheel-chair they had, they called it off… I would have preferred any of the following superior publications/media sources, FreeKeene.com staff, Keene/NH Free Press, Obscured Truth Network, or Free Talk Live folks, but Ian has kindly informed me that the jail folks say that the bias publication is “not biased”… huh? Yeah, the “main stream” paper. Sorry if I may sound “biased” in my philosophy (by the way, Yadra is telling them he’s a philosopher, as his occupation, and the idiots laugh… oh how I’m enjoying this) but they sure are late bloomers now, aren’t they?
One more quick update; there are four or five protesters outside as I write this and I’m on cloud nine… Oh, and none of the “inmates” told anyone outside I was still in a wheelchair. Wink wink! Think and be peace.
I wasn’t actually thrilled with the idea of having the rally during the Pumpkin Fest. I suggested we carve some creative Jack-O-Lanterns having a 420 rally and place them in the square as a quiet alternative. Well, others chose to continue, which is their right, so I did what I could to support them and at least make sure as many people as possible can witness police victimizing innocent people who own their own bodies with the tired excuse of “just doing my job”. If my job required me to victimize innocents, I would quit. I’d sooner flip burgers or sweep streets or something.
UPDATE: I took out the two-bit whore comment. It was a bit over the top as well as just not a very nice thing to say. I apologize to any prostitutes I may have offended.

Day 16. Sunday, October 18, 2009
Last night at around 10:00 PM or so, I finally received stamps and other mailing supplies that I requested at the first given opportunity on Monday.
It is so hard for me to comprehend the vast amount of support I’ve had. Mail has come in not only from all over the geographical XXX often named as “The United States of America” but also from over seas as well.
As I ought to have expected I just heard word that the gang calling themselves “government” again is not applying their own rules and truths to themselves, but aggressing further still, violently and deceitfully against any and all who challenge them.
Now I have a deeper appreciation of what the Browns were up against when the Feds and their local groupies (small brained cops) relentlessly and vigilantly pursued their quest to create the enemy they needed to have to justify their existence to a scared people. It is with lament I look back now and question what else could I and others have done to more help the Brown family…and we all know how they made that turn out. (more…)
With 4 Keene area activists in jail and the Fall Free Keene planned for tomorrow, why not take the show on the road and stop by the Cheshire County Department of Corrections located in Westmoreland, NH?
