Palmer Trespass Arrest – Pretrial Motions Filed

As you know I was recently arrested in Palmer, MA for recording video in town hall. The pretrial hearing is on 12/10 at 9am in Palmer district court, however I hope to bypass that, as typically pretrials are a waste of everyone’s time. I’m filing a motion to do that as well is filing for discovery, a jury trial, recording, and to dismiss/strike the case. For those of you that enjoy the legal end of things, here’s what I’m mailing out today:

Concord Monitor Reports on New NH Secession Group

It’s about time people started promoting this issue. Thanks to Neal Connor and the activists behind the Foundation for New Hampshire Independence, a brand new group created to advocate for NH secession. Ben Leubsdorf at the Concord Monitor reports:

Comparing the United States to the Roman Empire in decline, five New Hampshire residents have established a nonprofit group to advocate for the Granite State’s secession and independence.

The foundation was established as a nonprofit corporation Sept. 14, with an office in Manchester and the goal of educating residents “on the benefits of the state of New Hampshire peacefully declaring its independence and separating from the United States,” according to a filing with the secretary of state’s office.

He occupies a maximum security prison in Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, where he awaits trial for exposing a naked emperor. Thank you, Bradley Manning, for your loyalty to a higher authority than the gang you were pledged to serve.
