LOT: Just Another Weekend in Keene

Liberty On Tour‘s Pete Eyre reports in from Keene:

KEENE, NH – Ademo and I have been in Keene now for a couple of months. Among other things, we’ve made some changes to LibertyOnTour.com & CopBlock.org (and have more planned), done a lot of brainstorming and strategic thinking, Ademo is now blogging on FreeKeene.com, I helped start PrisonersForLiberty.com, we do “Don’t Take the Plea” outreach every Tuesday morning (other activists have Mon, Wed. and soon Thur. covered) and Free Keene TV is getting off the ground (props to JJ!).
