I was contacted yesterday by a downtown Keene business owner, Nicholas Sansone, owner of Moda Suo Studio Hair Salon on Main St. Apparently certain members of the city council have proposed an protectionist ordinance that will restrict bars from being opened within so many feet of any existing bar in downtown Keene. Nicholas has created a petition to oppose this ordinance and would like to invite you to sign it. I have signed.
Nicholas has told me that he will be attending the next Social Sunday event to meet up with local activists.

Normally I’d advise avoiding politics, but this is a pretty big opportunity to send a message to the Feds and show the strength of the liberty activist community in NH. -Ian

WHAT: Rally in support of HCR6
WHEN: 8:00 AM, Wednesday, March 4th
WHERE: NH State House, 107 N Main St., Concord [ Map ]
WHY: The Federal government has gone far enough. We need to draw a line in the sand. If there is further egregious, serious disrespect of the US Constitution by the Federal government, then New Hampshire must reclaim its sovereignty. See the interview on Glenn Beck here; longer interview here.
WHO: YOU! Not “somebody”. Not “those people”. YOU!!
HCR6 came out of committee with a surprise “Inexpedient to Legislate” recommendation.
For those that remember it, this is a replay of the resistance against the bills to get NH out of Real-ID. This is unacceptable. Fortunately, we have a playbook. We know what it takes to move this forward: MASSIVE PUBLIC SUPPORT!
ACTION ITEMS BEFORE THE RALLY:
1. Email or call your State Reps. Simply, courteously, ask them to support HCR6 when it comes to a vote. Their contact info is here
2. Contact the Speaker of the House, Terie Norelli, terie.norelli@leg.state.nh.us or (603) 271-3661 and ask her to support HCR6 when it comes to the full legislature for a vote
3. Pass this info along to everyone you know

Liberty activists called WKBK’s Talkback this morning and discussed cutting government, market policing, the violence of the state, so-called disorderly houses, and more. Listen as host and city councilor Paula-Ayn Phillips claims that government aggression isn’t violence! Plus, this week’s featured statist callers claim Free Staters shouldn’t be allowed to call Talkback, challenged activists to do mass civil disobedience, and expressed great frustration at our phone call volume compared to that of the “progressives”.
If you are awake on Saturday mornings, we could really use your help! Please join us in calling the program with a pro-liberty viewpoint. Get details on when and how and discuss with other activists on this Free Keene forum thread.

On the ride over to Concord (for the DMV hearing pertaining to Lauran) some fellow liberty activists and I spotted a City of Keene police cruiser speeding along Route 9 in Hillsborough. As you can see in the video, the driver is obviously concerned about the safety of the drivers around him with his excessive speed, tailgating, and swerving. The video is narrated so it’s best you watch it, since I’d just be repeating what’s said.

Later at the DMV hearing, I couldn’t hide the large smirk on my face. The DMV bureaucrat claimed Lauren endangered the safety of other drivers on the roads, because of her disobedience to the law, not because she actually posed a threat or hurt anyone. Double standards? Hypocrisy? I think the answer is quite clear and exposes the state of the current social order.
On a side note, there were no City of Keene police officers present at the hearing for Lauren so the end destination of this cruiser is still unknown.
