Here’s a teaser video featuring lots of activism footage. The full feature will air tonight at 11pm on WMUR TV 9 and will be available online sometime early tomorrow. It will be posted here. Does anyone know how to embed videos from WMUR?
I’m hoping to write an more exhaustive ‘about’ me post but I’m rather busy, like everyone else, so it will have to wait. For now, here is a post I published at CopBlock.org. It’s fitting considering Free Keene activists did most of the leg work which resulted in me being freed from jail. Thanks again.
Three weeks ago yesterday Pete Eyre was assaulted, hand cuffed and dragged from a public building then put in a cage because he wore a hat inside ‘the’ courtroom. The following day, at Pete’s arraignment, I spoke out against Edward Burke’s (the judge) decision to keep him locked up. The judge ordered Pete to remain in jail because he refused to ID himself and shortly after sentenced me to 60 days in jail for my outburst.
So how did I get released early? Well, with so many great activists doing so many different things to free me, it’s impossible to say exactly what it was and a mix of everything is likely the answer. People were calling the jail, writing letters to Burke, protesting, making videos, filing motions, contacting media and much much more. A big thanks is in order for JJ, Andrew “280”, Aubern, Tayna, Carolyn, George, Smeg, Ian, my family and of course my boy – Pete. These guys are one kick ass team (not to undermine those who helped them – everyone did a great job and I’m so grateful to have support from so many) and I really value the support we show one another.

It’s happened again. Last time was in Milford, two years ago. This morning a peaceful activist, Pete, was assaulted and kidnapped by armed men because he was wearing a hat. Copblock.org has a full report. Here’s video, first inside the court:
Then outside as Pete is loaded into the police cruiser:

The cases for both Pete and Adam’s from Liberty on Tour are continued as the state is attempting to join the trials. (More about the Greenfield situation here.) Watch as Pete stands his ground and speaks the truth when they want him to leave, but for some reason are in no way in a hurry to remove him. Very strange:
