JAFFREY – Call them liberty lovers, Libertarians, radicals or rogues — just don’t call them Tea Partiers.
Those are fighting words — metaphorically speaking — for the peace-loving folk who came out to rally for four days in a field at the 5th annual Live Free or Die Rally this weekend.
Rally organizers and the group that helps sponsor the event — The Citizens Alliance Against Creepy Politics — describe themselves as a non-profit, non-aligned, pro-freedom organization that addresses a wide range of political issues.
Those in attendance may not agree on everything, but the one area there’s consensus: They are not the Tea Party. (more…)
Capuzzo has written another letter from the jail in Mass. You can give him something to do in there by sending him (and other NH activists) mail via mail-to-jail! Thanks to Aida for the transcription:
Friends in Liberty,
Some of you know me already, but many of you do not. I thought it would be interesting to write letters to have posted on line and give everyone the chance to hear about life in jail. The difference being, I’m here long term. This idea is from Kurt Hoffman’s letters from jail. He is my inspiration in this and also a big part of me becoming an activist from the same letters.
I have been in the Franklin County Jail in Greenfield, MA for a month and a half, estimated. I don’t know anyone here but they knew me fairly quick with the nickname of “Hippy”, being an activist and because of all the shit they found in my car when I was arrested with fellow activist and great friend, Rich Paul, and my friend Jackie. Luckily, I get along with most everyone pretty well.
Most of my time passed fairly quickly because of letters from friends, mail to jail, watching TV, and reading. The latest books of interest being the biography of Gandhi, Harry Truman, and the essay from Henry David Thoreau titled Civil Disobedience. (more…)
The first of the “Trespassive Twelve” faces trial for the horrible crime of walking on “public” property. Of course, he was found guilty, but is appealing.
Liberty-minded people called “Talkback” on WKBK last week to discuss negativity in politics, fiat currency, world policing, consequences of cracking down on activists, police discretion, insults toward liberty activists, free market schools, and correcting misunderstandings. A local critic calls in about the city council drinking game and a former cop calls in with paranoid and violent statements about activists.
Please join us for our weekly chat and calling sessions on Saturday mornings from 9a-12p. If you’re in the Keene area you can tune in to WKBK 1290 AM or 104.1 FM. The Talkback discussion thread is here on the Free Keene Forum.
