Local activist Rolland Judd writes the following op-ed:
Any case made to legalize now illegal drugs in the U.S. is really a case to repeal acts that made them illegal in the first place, namely the Controlled Substances Act.

Lew Rockwell, the founder of the Mises Institute and the most popular liberty-oriented website in the world, LewRockwell.com, has endorsed Keene’s activism! In an hour-long interview on Keene’s syndicated talk radio show, Free Talk Live, Lew called Keene “The northern capital of libertarianism” and suggested it was the “epicenter” of NH liberty activism. Lew identified himself as an “enthusiastic supporter” of the Free State Project, saying, “I definitely endorse the Free State Project”. About Keene, he said “[i] especially like what you guys are doing in Keene”, adding that activists “do amazing things here”.
Thank you Lew for your visit to Keene, the great interview, and the excellent endorsements. I’m adding them to the top of our Endorsements section of the 130 Reasons to Move to Keene!

Here’s a PDF of a letter that Capuzzo sent me from jail in Massachusetts. I’ve just shipped him a copy of Dr. Mary Ruwart’s “Healing our World” and Lysander Spooner’s “No Treason”. You can give him something to do in there by sending him (and other NH activists like Rich Paul) mail via mail-to-jail!

On WKBK yesterday morning, politician Bob Guida, who is running for “US Representative” was on with Al Kulas. As much as I wanted to ask him about his desire for a police state (“immigration” being his excuse), I decided to go with secession questions. Here’s the archive.
