Marc Stevens, host of the No State Project has been busy on the phones in the Antrim speeding case trying to track down someone who can show evidence that the statutes apply to us. He finally gets the Senior Assistant to the NH Attorney General on the phone to hopefully iron out this mystery. Unfortunately she has “no idea” and can only make the vague claim that it’s “commonly known”. Get the full audio of his call on Marc’s site.

An arbitrary, round number was reached today on Facebook where Free Keene‘s like count crossed 5,000! Thank you so much! How exciting that it won’t be long before we catch up to the Keene Sentinel’s 5,565 likes. The Keene Sentinel, the area’s pro-state old media has a 100+ year head start, but the gap is closing!

I’m not sure what a flag-waving republican kid has to do with the Free State Project, but that’s the picture Fox News is running on a feature story about the FSP, currently the number-one story in the politics section on FoxNews.com. They get a major fact wrong, claiming the 2012 jury nullification bill was from 2002 – hopefully that will get corrected, but otherwise the piece is very good, and Keene gets a mention:
Libertarians eager to move beyond mere ideological victories are making progress in a long-term effort to migrate to one state to concentrate efforts and reshape communities based on their ideals of less government and individualism. (more…)

Clayton Holton is at every cannabis hearing at the state house that he can physically bring himself to, which is no easy task. Clayton has muscular dystrophy and lost his ability to walk at age 13. He enters the hearing rooms in his motorized wheelchair and every time tells the politicians the same story. For a decade he has been doing this and this year it finally looked like headway was being made. However, the NH Senate gutted critical provisions that will likely mean imminent death for Clayton. He doesn’t have much longer left. He needs your help by signing this petition asking governor Maggie Hassan to get a clue and let patients grow their own cannabis and have an affirmative medical defense – both things stripped from the bill at the request of the morally-vacant NH law enforcement establishment.
Here’s the petition, and here are Clayton’s own words on why you should sign it:
Because my weight is down to 63 pounds, and there are many other patients like me who can’t afford to wait.
As a 28-year-old battling muscular dystrophy, I’ve been fighting for my life since I lost my ability to walk at age 13.
I know from personal experience that medical marijuana works for me, having spent a summer in California several years ago. In the months that I was able to use it legally, I gained more than 10 pounds and was able to stop taking prescription pain medicines altogether. There is no cure for my condition, but medical marijuana relieves my pain and stimulates my appetite, dramatically improving my quality of life when I’m able to use it. (more…)
