In the name of “the children”, Keene’s daily 4:20pm cannabis celebration will move from Central Square across the street to where young, innocent eyes should never be – city hall.
Event promoter Rich Paul, the one man arrested for possession of marijuana since the beginning of the incredibly successful daily celebrations over a month ago, has announced that out of respect for the very small amount of public space available in the park, that the celebration will move to the front of city hall at 3 Washington St. in Keene. The event will return to Central Square as of Sunday.
Paul expects that tomorrow may be the biggest 4:20 celebration ever in Keene. Due to the threatened crackdown from Keene police, it is recommended that those who plan on toking bring joints and plan for a high arrest potential. Peaceful police countermeasures will be in effect. Please bring your recording devices. See you there!

The usual 4:20 celebration is going to be difficult if not impossible with all the Pumpkin Fest activities going on. That is, it will be difficult for people to celebrate, but what about the Jack-O-Lanterns? Why can’t THEY have a 4:20 celebration tomorrow? I’m encouraging people to be creative with their pumpkins. Show them “celebrating” in your own creative fashion! Ideally, try to get them done today so they can be submitted early in the morning tomorrow for a good spot right in Central Square with all the other happy Jack-O-Lanterns.
I’m bringing one that says “4:20 Every Day!” so the others could be placed around it.
4:20 Every Day! Jack-O-Lantern
4:20 Every Day! Jack-O-Lantern
I cut the words in using a cuticle remover from my manicure kit and them scooped them out more thoroughly with another tiny scoopy sort of implement from my manicure kit that I don’t know the name of. Then I scooped out more from the inside behind the letters so the skin is thin enough for light to shine through.

The Union Leader is reporting that in the name of the children, Keene police and prosecutors plan to make arrests in Keene’s Central Square, a piece of “public” property. Will tomorrow’s Pumpkin Fest event be a tragedy of the commons? “Public” property is allegedly owned by everyone, which also means it’s owned by no one. While ideally all property should be owned, as long as the concept of “public” property exists, any peaceful individuals should be allowed there. Because of the children though, Keene’s armed gang has decided that smokers of cannabis will be kidnapped while smokers of tobacco will be left alone. Sure, this is completely arbitrary, but that’s how they roll.
What will happen tomorrow afternoon at 4:20pm is anyone’s guess. Remember, no one is in charge. Will the tokers stay away that one day? Will they show up and be arrested? (If they are arrested, will they take jail time and cost the gang, or will they pay the gang?) Are the cops bluffing? If both sides show up, how many will there be?
“What about the children?”
Why not tell your kids the truth about cannabis? You do know the truth, right? (more…)
