The Stanley Milgram experiment gave a scary glimpse into just how far people are willing to go when directed by a so called “authority figure”. Watch what happened when I applied the same principles on Sunday at the Keene Music Festival:
Her’s a friendly discussion Luthor and I had with the group before the bureaucrat’s meeting where they upheld their ban on the freedom to possess an open container of alcohol:
Here’s another perspective, thanks to Free Keene form the Free Keene Stigma‘s Jeff: (more…)
Here’s a more complete picture of the events that occurred both before and after the Keene City Council Drinking Game, Round 2:
James,
I apologize for invading your personal space yesterday outside city hall. I should have worked to deescalate the situation, and instead my actions contributed to exactly the opposite. I certainly could have responded differently, and I have learned from this experience. I apologize for my aggressive behavior towards you.
I do not feel I owe you a new cup, as it was a closed container that was put in my face, and I truly felt threatened. However, I would invite you to sit down and talk about the issues related to Free Keene and the Liberty Activism going on. If you want to do this on camera, I think this would make great footage, and would be happy to film this in front of your coffee shop. Of course your videographer would be welcome to set up as well. This would be great advertising to the people that agree with and support your viewpoint, and I’ll even buy the drinks.
I think this would go a long way to help you understand some of the changes that are happening in Keene and around the state. There is a tremendous amount of mis-information about the liberty activists, our views, and activism. I would like to explain what we are all about, and how the freedom message naturally works to bring people together.
So James if you would like to set that up on camera or off, please let me know with a private message to me in the forum. I’m glad you joined, and look forward to speaking with you about this.

I called into the morning show here in Keene to discuss last nights Keene City Council drinking game and the Anti-Free Keene hecklers that showed up to disrupt filming. Keene City Councilor Pam Slack called in to announce that Heika’s letter would be addressed on Wednesday at 6:30.

I’m currently editing the video for the event. The full footage from this incident is shown in the beginning. This version seems to have cut two previous occasions where he was disrupting my interview by holding the cup in front of the camera. He was repeatedly asked to stop interfering.
