FK’s Derrick Makes National News for Illegal Haircuts

Free Keene blogger Derrick J Freeman makes national news with an AP article on his illegal haircutting. Multiple disobedience arrests, his own youtube channel, and now national news – Derrick J is in my opinion the activist of the year. He arrived in Keene in 2011, hit the ground running, and hasn’t stopped. Thank you Derrick for all you do for liberty. Here’s the AP piece:

CONCORD, N.H.—Anyone handy with scissors and a blow-dryer could set up shop in New Hampshire without the state’s formal blessing if an effort to eliminate education and licensing requirements for a host of occupations is successful.

Cosmetologists, barbers and a handful of others in state-licensed occupations would no longer need to go to school or get a license to work under the bill facing a vote in the House early next year that makes the licenses voluntary.

Derrick Freeman, a 22-year-old unlicensed hairdresser from Keene, said his customers’ satisfaction should determine if he can work, not a state license. (more…)

Outrageous Bailiff Screams and Stares Activists Down

Several NH activists attend a NH Supreme Court public hearing on cameras In NH courthouses.  The recording took place in the court lobby prior to the hearing.  There was a Bailiff who’s actions were a little bizarre to say the least.  So bizarre that it necessitated an entire video of just his actions.  Two activists describe an incident where this man intentionally nudged past them.  The man then has stare downs with four different activists and a scream of rage directed at Kate Ager.

Ademo’s Arraignment on Wiretapping Charges

Yesterday I was arraigned on three counts of felony wiretapping – click here to read about Pete’s and my year long fight on MA wiretapping charges. If convicted I face anywhere from 11.5 to 21 years in prison and up to $12,000 in fines. I say IF because the only way I’ll be convicted is if the state (the system itself) protects it’s own. The three people claiming that I wire tapped them are public officials, whom I recorded while acting in their “public” capacities, but we’ll get more into that as we approach trial. (more…)

Lone City Councilor Votes Against the Militarization of KPD

Thank you Terry Clark. No thanks to the rest of the council, who just voted to accept federal money for a “BearCat”. It’s that scary looking Armored Personnel Carrier behind these scary guys pictured below. The cops sure have come a long way since Andy Griffith, huh? This thing is not something that peace officers need to have. Of course, they aren’t peace officers, are they? Otherwise they would be focusing on keeping the peace instead of aggressing against the peaceful.
