After some discussion it has been decided to repurpose the nearly-defunct Monadnock Porcupines yahoo group to be more of a forum for liberty people in the area. (It used to be for facilitating welcoming new Free State Project movers – something that is now done on Facebook.) – so feel free to use the invite button and invite the people that you know love liberty and live in the Monadnock region.
Maybe it won’t pan out into anything since people love Facebook so much, but I wanted to have a way to connect with liberty-oriented people who don’t want to use the facebook or Shire Society forum.
We’ll see how it goes. You can join the yahoo group here.
As you may know, NH is the only state with a law affirming the right of a jury to nullify bad laws (thanks to Free State Project liberty legislators). Now the NH Bar Association’s Mark Sisti and Jared Bedrick weigh in with an opinion piece about the issue:
This past September, Judge James D. O’Neill, III of the Belknap County Superior Court instructed jurors that they could find the defendant not guilty, despite proof of guilt beyond a reasonable doubt, if they had “a conscientious feeling that a not-guilty verdict would be a fair result in [the] case.”
In that case, Barnstead resident and Rastafari practitioner Doug Darrell had taken the stand and admitted to each and every element of an indictment alleging that he knowingly manufactured marijuana at his home. The judge was essentially allowing the jury to base its decision on something other than law or logic – its concept of justice. This is known as “jury nullification,” and it’s the subject of a recent law and heated debate. (more…)
A very revealing video from Dave Ridley where various Manchester city alderman as well as the mayor express that they don’t care about the first amendment:

Ridley catches the man in a lie as he claims that he has never reported his students for victimless crimes then moments later admits to having reported them to police for drugs:
