Greenfield MA jury acquits two Keene men of felony wiretapping charges after they were arrested for filming the police, the dire state of American schools, and 15 states thinking about alternative currencies to compete with the declining dollar.
An update on Ademo Freeman’s arrest and the Keene Courts, Ron Paul to introduce a bill that would allow TSA officials to be charged with sexual assault for groping passengers, CA cops get $5,600 for washing their motorcycles, and the Feds want ISPs to keep internet history for 18 months just in case they want to look at it.
Keene man arrested and faces years in jail for talking to a judge outside of the court room, and an update on the girl who was arrested for filming police from her own yard; this is actually good news.
I know that a lot of the readers of this blog prefer out of the system activism, but there are certain bills that even some of the most diehard voluntaryists can get behind. I believe HB 146 is such a bill. The jury nullification bill has already passed the NH House, but it is having some trouble in the Senate. The Senate Judiciary Committee voted 2-2 on the bill as Inexpedient to Legislate, but that doesn’t mean the bill is dead. The full Senate is scheduled to vote on the bill later this week.
If this bill passes and is signed into law it would mean all the activism being done outside of court houses meant to inform potential jury members of their right to nullify a law would be done inside every court room where a jury is present. “In all court proceedings the court shall instruct the jury of its right to judge the facts and the application of the law in relationship to the facts in controversy.”
If you live in NH, please consider contacting the Senator that is supposed to represent you, or if you have the time, all 24 of them. A list of their contact information can be found here. The NH Liberty Alliance has pointed out that this is part of the official NH GOP platform, so if the Senator you are contacting was elected as a republican it might be helpful to remind them of this.
A frustrated and angry UK virgin is being flown to Amsterdam to hire a prostitute on the tax payers’ dime, raw milk raids increase, mailing tobacco through the US mail just got harder and more expensive, and mattress police; yes they really do exist and yes they really are cracking down on people who remove the ‘do not remove’ tags.
