When we returned, an interesting contrasting couple of panels were presented. First a panel of newbies hosted by Tarrin Lupo shared their experiences being new movers as part of the Free State Project. Then, a panel of some of the original batch of FSP early movers presented by Denis Goddard discussed their perspective on all the changes we’ve seen in over a decade of people moving here for the FSP. There were great audience questions for both afternoon panels.
For the final act on Keenevention’s Saturday, illegal UBER driver Christopher David held a group brainstorming on the topic of abolishing the state in our lifetime! Chris did not take the stage. He stayed floor-level and brought an easel and huge pad of lined paper on to which ideas thrown out by the audience of Keeneventioneers were placed. There was audience participation aplenty in this creative and usual keynote speech!Today, we received an awesome compliment! Cameron, a new mover from Michigan, told me that Keenevention is already a better experience for him than the yearly (much bigger) Liberty Forum! That’s not to say the Liberty Forum is a bad event – it’s also great, and you should attend it. He says he prefer Keenevention because it’s more intimate and easier to connect with the attendees and speakers and he’s enjoying getting out of the hotel and exploring the area. Yay!
All the panels and speakers will be released on youtube over the weeks following Keenevention, so stay tuned to the Keenevention blog for more announcements. You can also follow the new Keenevention Twitter, Keenevention’s facebook page and join the official facebook event here.
he's right about this. But i have one concern about legalizing weed. Wouldn't Big Tobacco compaines take over all the business from small growers and dealers? If they legalize it, they should make a requirement that bans big business from getting into the business
Legalizing Drugs Will Not Stop Robberies, Violence, and Theft in Keene.
Somebody keeps changing their name or using different names, i dont know which, but i garuntee that the second poster is one of these people that always gets on here and defends the cops and the government
@blackie: You're right, because nothing will stop robberies, violence and theft from ever happening. Prohibition and police aggression certainly doesn't work either. The goal is to lessen the occurrences of these violent crimes. The facts are that these crimes will and do diminish when prohibition is ended. Just look to the history of alcohol prohibition in the US.
I choose compassion and not aggression. This article is great!
Or he is a troll?
Dr. Ian Bernard, Criminologist – save proclaimed Messiah of all things Keene has spoken. Gather round everyone, Ian Freeman the jailbird has the answer to solving rape, murder, assaults and drunk driving deaths! All these crimes are a result of drugs being illegal….who da thunk. Legalize crack and sit back and watch pedophilia just magically VANISH.
So when the EMT "stole" Ian's camera a year or so ago he was yelling like a little girl in the street "Help! POLICE!" – it was because of drug prohibition? LOL
*self proclaimed* – for all the wordsmiths out there who can only focus on spelling errors.
@matt
Personal attacks on Ian do no harm to this message. It is correct and the path we should follow.
yea…Ian may say "i wish there were more flowers in the world" and trolls like matt would eviscerate him for it……. thats the hallmark of a TROLL…..
but they aren't smart enough to know that they are making themselves look bad….lol (not making Ian look bad)
80% of the police want money to buy drugs?? Don't they just use the stuff they take from the folks they arrest?? While a lot of crime IS commited by drug users looking for easy money,is there anything that suggests that those people would be clean,sober members of society if drugs were legal? Would they just get jobs to buy drugs,supposedly cheaper? What about addictive personalities,making drugs easier to get would only give one more avenue of abuse that is legal. And as said above,what about the crimes that are in no way related to drugs? We could make them… Read more »
Too much of a comparison. —bil

Mr. Rick Van Wickler is the Superintendent of the Cheshire County House of Corrections. In plain Contemporary Native American English, he's the county jail boss…He's a L.E.A.P. speaker, and recruiter. (Disclaimer: In Oct. 2009, I attended an indoctrination seminar, featuring a propaganda PowerPoint, and speaker. I drank the Kool-Aid. I paid $2. I got the cool little badge-looking lapel pin. It says: "Peace, Honor, Health, Discretion". I am a L.E.A.P. member. I am a plain-clothes, deep-cover, Federal Investigative Agent, employed through Treasury, with a cover as a Social Security Administration and USPS Postal Inspector.

Sorry, the first one is for you, king.
Yes, "david-keene", "reality*checkers" is the screen name I used last week, when last I logged on to this computer. It was "saved" here, when I logged on today, despite said computer having been run through several "shut down" and "restart" cycles, and having been hand-deleted by me, several times. I even hacked into the boot registry, and got fire-walled by some cool script that looks Czech or Ukranian, so I don't think it's "our side" doing it, but, NSA & NRO(Naval Reconnaisance Office) does sometimes use East European or Chinese -looking script as *DOMESTIC*COVER*…(International borders ceased to be relevant to… Read more »
Thank-you, "David"…~tKoK.
one thing i hope id never do is scream for the cops like a girl. I guess Ian screamed for the cops when the EMT stole his camera. He said, "that EMT stole my private property. Id like to file a complaint because he violated my right to my property." Property is theft – Proudhon
We may both be assholes, king, but only good assholes know Zappa(smiley face flipping off the freekeeners).
"video reinaction"???…they mean "re-enactment"???…MLK sure is hot property. I bet MLK still makes $millions$ / year in royalties…Thank-you, "bil", for the link to MLK's "Letter From Birmingham Jail"…No, "4:20" in the Common, or the "right" to drink beer openly, and display naked female breasts in public, is *NOT* anywhere near as "important" as CIVIL*RIGHTS…Ian is *NOT*, and never will be, "EQUAL" to MLK in importance, but still, the parallels are there. The parallels are there. I wonder what Church "David", and "matt" preach at? As stupid as I think it was, for Ian to stand in front of a cop… Read more »

Seriously, dude, i just clicked on your first of those 3 links above, *AFTER* I posted the post right before this one!…"Great minds think alike…???…WTF…???…~tKoK.
Who'd x-pect a friggin' EMT to snatch a cell fone? Course Ian squealed, smashcap. He's sure cowboyed up now. Thanks, Judge Arnold, for giving Ian the best *FREE* Vacation, and *FREE*STAY* at the new Cheshire County *FREEDOM*TRAINING*CAMP*. Ian will be out soon, bigger, better, badder than ever!…
In a previous post, Lpviper suggested that, if "FreeKeeners" are not being good neighbors, I should "call them out as hypocrites. FreeKeeners, I am calling you out as hypocrites! We were born with TWO ears and only ONE mouth. That means we were meant to LISTEN twice as much as we talk. What has been experienced during all of this is “sealed ears and flapping lips”. Unfortunately, attempts at civil discussion with you are met with shouting down, subject changing, name calling (“Statist”, “Sheep”, "Troll" etc…). I understand that the members of this movement are passionate in your beliefs, but… Read more »
tKoK-you have been 'incountry' too long,gone native.Why do you think I was sent,man-it was to watch over you! They are starting to get suspicious back at the Agency-I covered for you,said it was all part of an extremely cunning plan.They went for it,but be careful-there are Feds in town! —bil
Of *COURSE* there are "Feds" in town, "bil", who the fuck do you think works at the post office, and the military recruiters, for instance???…And, there's always an "AIP", (Agent In Place) for the Secret Service, in case O'Dumbo flaps his ears into Dillant-Hopkins…What, me worry? Relax, I'm writing a book, OK???…sheesh, you're as bad as that "keene-david" character!!!…~tKoK.
I told people i was the commander of an anarchist militia and was fighting a group called the triple six crew. They said "somebody left the computer at the psych ward unattended again."
They always leave that thing logged in-I don't know why.Anyone could use it! —bil
🙂 i have a picture now peace
good riddance to kok
that's not me……… it's the wrong end of the cow!!!
the ones without the cow picture are that mental patient kok………..GOOD RIDDANCE
I realize some people hide their names from their words:I attach my name to my words unlike those people and I own every word I say..Unlike those people.
one other quick note before he gets ZERO mention from me: I see kok/impersonater/brad around town for years ..and he has never ever said anything like the trash talk he does in here for zero reason…
EVER and I have seen him for YEARS …and all this non sense is unprovoked..well I will cross the street when I see him now
