Upset about Ademo’s conviction? Do Something!

Upset about the Ademo decision?
Don’t just cuss and moan, DO something.

Next step, The House Criminal Justice committee is taking is THIS WEDNESDAY.
An Interim Study subcommittee on HB 553 has been scheduled for Wednesday August 15 at 10am in LOB 208 (facebook event)

The subcommittee’s task is to study the bill and recommend to the full committee that it is either Recommended for Future Legislation or Not Recommended for Future Legislation. As the bill makes numerous changes to the wiretapping statute, it may be helpful to consult RSA 570-A for comparison.

Rep. Mark Warden, who attended Ademo’s trial, is the chairman of this subcommittee. He says: “If you come, we’ll hear your testimony. There is some desire within the legislature to clear up this horrible statute, but nobody has found a solid solution in the language. Additionally, many legislators love Big Brother, er, I mean big government, and kowtow to what the Attorney General’s office and other law enforcement types say. And, of course, _they_ want everything to be illegal — it means job security for them.”

This is just another step in the process, but today’s verdict shows reform is needed, not merely theory…

DID I MENTION BE POLITE?

[And if you don’t yet live in NH, why the heck not? Move. (Oh, wait, that was Ademo being told he should move away… ironic, huh?)
Try this Move.  Ah, much better.]

[Thanks to Ian for reposting this, and the offer to blog here at FreeKeene.  I’ll post here occasionally, with insights I’ve gained over the years, or perhaps counterpoints.  I’ve evolved in my view on the Keene methods of activism. And perhaps that’ll be my next post here… — Seth]

There is no right to know

Over the last several days, I have been trying, via Twitter, to get @FreeStateNH to tell me which candidates running for the NH House are members of the Free State Project. They have boasted there are 14 FSP members currently serving in the NH House. But they keep telling me FSP is not political. I keep asking how I will know if a candidate is FSP. I have asked and asked. I have said voters have the right to know. Tonight they told me there is no right to know. (more…)
