Hopefully soon due to a change in both federal and state law, being a resident of New Hampshire alone will make you impervious to the Massachusetts oppressive police-state gun control laws. I think everyone knows the 2nd Amendment doesn’t mean much down there… and most people I know would like to be able to defend themselves against attack without being thrown in prison for a mandatory year.
Gun Owners of America is requesting that everyone contact New Hampshire US Senators Jeanne Shaheen and Kelly Ayotte to support this.
You can do so easily here.

If you live in New Hampshire, Senate Bill 409 will be voted on soon.
If you want to see people who use cannabis for medical reasons go to jail, do nothing.
If you want to extend compassion and legal protection to them, call your State Senator. If you live in a yellow district, urge them to pass. If you live in a green or blue district, thank them for their support. If you live in a red district, let them know why they’re getting voted out next time.
If you are a Keene resident please contact Senator Molly Kelly and thank her for supporting safe access to medical marijuana by people who suffer from horrible illnesses.

Displeasure seems to continue to be growing at my decision to inform government officials about the threats against Judge Edward Burke.
From my response to a critic:
“Don’t forget it was anonymous PUBLIC comments that the University System of New Hampshire used in court to help justify why they needed a temporary restraining order against ME from carrying a firearm on state property (state property I carried firearms on numerous times before as a law enforcement officer).”
Yeah, it feels strange quoting myself like that, but you get the idea.
I know there are lots of people in disagreement with me on this, but, I believe mere threatening violence against another is a violation of the non-aggression principle.
Here is the full response I posted on the NH Underground Forums.

New Hampshire State Representative Kevin Avard (R) (Hills-20) formally invited me yesterday onto his brand new internet and community access television show “Speak Up New Hampshire,” a program that will be filmed weekly in Nashua, NH, Rep. Avard’s district.
Rep. Avard is a sitting member of the newly created “Redress of Grievances Committee” formed during this session of the New Hampshire General Court. Like quite a few other elected officials I have been communicating with recently regarding State v. Jason Talley, Representative Avard is a strong proponent of accountability in the New Hampshire Judicial Branch. The interview should be both podcasted and rebroadcasted on community access stations throughout New Hampshire.
In other news regarding the problems Keene Circuit Court-District Division Presiding Judge Edward Burke has created for the New Hampshire Judicial Branch, popular New Hampshire current events blog NH Insider has picked up the story.

New Hampshire State Representative George Lambert (R) (Hillsboro-27), the elected representative of the people who courageously stood up for Jason Talley’s right to have a fair defense against corrupt charges in Cheshire County Superior Court, told me yesterday that the NH House passed HB 1474, a law that will eliminate the legal representation monopoly the NH Bar Association has here in New Hampshire.
The “roll-call” vote was 199-88 and the bill now moves on to the New Hampshire Senate. If you support lower legal representation fees and more competition in the marketplace, this is a bill you should ask your New Hampshire Senator to support.
Also: Make sure you check out this Concord Monitor article that talks about Rep. Lambert’s impending run for the NH Senate and the authorizing of four subpoenas of four judges who Jason intends to call as witnesses in his defense:
“He’s also a justice of the peace who recently signed off on the subpoenas of four state judges on behalf of Jason Talley, a Free State activist who describes himself as “an advocate for the victims of government violence.” Talley said he was arrested for entering a courthouse with a video camera attached to his belt.
Lambert said he’s not part of the Free State Project, but “I’m associated with people who are.””
