Kate Ager was born and raised in Keene, New Hampshire and has questioned ‘authority’ since a young age. Surrounded by people who do not think she is a bad person solely for failing to follow orders or obey certain laws, Kate no longer feels out of place. She is a voluntaryist who is trying to further expand her ideas and learn how to effectively communicate them. Kate believes that it is not what you do in life, but how you do it and it is not what you see, but the way you see it.
Lori Stabile from Masslive.com reports from Palmer, MA, where Josh Noone‘s brother Jay, a fireman, has never paid property tax on his home. Or, what he thought was his home. Now the town government people are preparing to steal it and throw Jay’s family out into the street. Activists drove down from Keene on what was supposed to be the day of eviction in a show of support. The government people did not make a move on Jay yesterday, but it’s probably only a matter of them waiting until the supporters drop off. Unlike the government guys who threaten and steal for a living, we actually have to be productive in the market to succeed. Here’s masslive’s story:
PALMER – As the town prepared to hold a tax-title auction on Tuesday at the Town Building, a group of people gathered at the home of Joseph F. “Jay” Noone at 3157 Main St. in Bondsville to protest his eviction notice over non-payment of $23,000 in taxes.
During the auction, two men from Keene, N.H., videotaped the proceedings; beforehand, they asked questions of Police Chief Robert P. Frydryk about what was happening.
Pete Eyre, wearing a T-shirt that said “I don’t talk to police, I record them,” said they are part of libertyontour.com, which, according to its website, advocates for self-governance, personal responsibility and consensual interactions. They left the auction after the first sale to join the group at Noone’s. (more…)
Local Keene-native liberty activist Kate Ager has written a blog post on her facebook regarding this morning’s kidnapping of Ademo Freeman and Derrick Horton:
I woke up this morning (Tuesday June 28, 2011) to a Keene 411 text message alerting me that, “Ademo Freeman just got arrested at city hall,” so I went down there. When I arrived, I passed Jason Repsher downstairs who was doing Don’t Take the Plea outreach and proceeded to the second floor where the first thing I saw upon opening the door was a Keene Police officer grabbing Derrick Horton’s arm; he was ordered to put his camera on the counter, placed under arrest and taken into a back room. Ademo, who was being held in the conference room, was taken to a room off to the side where I could see him through the window and spoken to by multiple police officers. After their encounter, Ademo was taken to the Keene Police Department. Jason Repsher stayed at the Keene District Court to watch Derrick’s proceedings while Rich Paul and I went to the police department to gain further information about Ademo. At the police department, the woman at the front desk said that she did not know any information and would speak with the arresting officer when he was free for a moment. We checked in with her multiple times, but she did not follow through. About forty-five minutes after arriving, I was standing outside with Rich and Jason, when Officer Short drove into the parking lot and informed us that Derrick had been transported to the police department and would be released shortly, and Ademo was being charged with a Class B Felony, Improper Influence [*].
