Due to low usage, the Free Keene chat room has been replaced by the chat room for the Liberty Radio Network. You can still get in the chat by visiting Chat.FreeKeene.com, and we still have our weekly scheduled chat Saturday mornings from 11a-12p during WKBK’s Talkback. Hopefully using the LRN chat will increase participation in that particular event, as you can listen to Talkback streamed live on the Liberty Radio Network.
If you’ve been paying attention, you know that for weeks now there have been two Social Sundays gatherings. One was at 3pm a local sports bar and the other starts at 5pm at Abunara, Keene’s Middle Eastern Cultural Club featuring fine food, Turkish coffee, fresh juices and hookah pipes.
The market has spoken. The sports bar was devoid of activists today and Abunara was hopping! The earlier gathering will be dropped in favor of focusing on the 5pm event at Abunara. The owners there welcome liberty activists and have offered us special deals. The food is fantastic and the atmosphere is much brighter and far more comfortable than the bar. We’d love to have you come out and join us every Sunday at 5pm for socializing and now gaming! Many people are bringing their favorite board, party, and strategy games and staying and hanging out for hours. People do tend to arrive earlier than five, but considering 4:20 events will be returning in a few months, it makes the most sense to say it starts at five. Tonight it went well past 10pm with a Monopoly slugfest involving Free Keene bloggers Dale and Richard!
So come on out Sundays starting at 5pm at Abunara in the Center at Keene on the West end of Gilbo Ave., right next to Rick’s Ice Cream! Please be aware that Abunara is a private club. If you don’t know any Free Keeniacs who are members and are brand new (you can always get to know us by posting on the Forum!) you can either buy a year membership for $20 or you can walk in and ask a member get you in free as a guest. Just let it be known you’re there for Free Keene’s Social Sunday. See you there!
Oh, and visit this forum thread for the latest info on the event.
UPDATE- For those with smoke-related concerns, come on by and check this place out. They are VERY well ventilated. No tobacco is smoked in Abunara unless it is in a hookah, and it’s nothing like a cigarette or cigar smell. In fact, unless you are right next to it, it’s difficult to detect.
Michael has recently moved to Keene from Florida. He’s one of the founders of the Monadnock Families for Liberty. Here’s his interview with the Ridley Report.
Welcome to our newest blogger, Brandon. He’ll be heading up the Free Keene food drives and who knows what into the future. Look for his first post here soon. Meantime, here’s his bio from the Bloggers page:
Brandon moved to Keene in June of 2009 from the Detroit, MI area. He had been a believer in small government philosophy before coming to the realization that only through a voluntary society can the rights and liberties of individuals be preserved. After learning of the Free State Project in 2004 Brandon felt that the FSP would provide the best opportunity to reclaim those liberties.
The Free Keene Forum has hit a new milestone! Not only are there over 725 members and 22,000 posts, but now we’ve surpassed the NHFree.com forum in activity! In the month of October, the Free Keene Forum saw 2972 posts, compared to NHFree.com’s 2211 and the Free State Project forum’s 2253. (We’re also winning solidly this month, too.) Both the NHFree and FSP forums had more new users than we did, but our users are far more active. The other forums in the state (NHLiberty.org and NHTeaParty.org) didn’t even come close.
Thanks to everyone who participates at the Free Keene Forum. If the popularity there is any indicator, we have a lot of new people who will be coming to Keene, as they clearly know where the action is in the liberty movement!

For a couple of years now we’ve been offering 1970’s “The Market for Liberty” in audiobook and .PDF forms for download free at Book.FreeKeene.com. Now, we offer a brand new audiobook, published in 2007 by Wes Bertrand, “Complete Liberty: The Demise of the State and the Rise of Voluntary America”. The book is inspired by many other great liberty-minded works in the past (such as The Market for Liberty) and is an excellent modern day look at what liberty is and how we can achieve it in our lifetimes. Complete Liberty is a highly recommended read for those interested in freedom. Wes also does a podcast which you can listen to on his site, CompleteLiberty.com. Visit that page for his introduction. Here are three ways you can download this book:
