As he promised on a recent episode of Free Talk Live, a talk-radio program based here in Keene (and as of May 22nd, is syndicated on 79 radio stations across the radio/geographical territory controlled by the organization widely known as the Federal Communication Commission), famed pundit Alex Jones featured the hosts thereof on June 11th, on his own PrisonPlanet.tv program: for a debate regarding immigration as it pertains to strategies for, and philosophies of, liberty. That represents a turn-around of five days—an excellent speed in this commentator’s opinion.
Here is one of several uploads available; this one inclusive of Alex Jones’ preface:
…on which they played the pivotal line from a video of the man currently widely known as President of the United States of America, speaking on “private contractors.” Here is a quick link to the video from the point at which they began playing it on the show, and here is the video in its entirety:
I co-host Free Talk Live every Thursday night from 7pm to 10pm, a nationally syndicated talk radio show. Last Thursday, an anarchist called in to talk about how he attended a meeting about a local smoking ban to speak out against it. There was some discussion about whether such an act is part of working within their system and I’m known for not being a big fan of that game, to put it lightly. Mark is equating this act with voting based on the notion that you’re just voting by proxy, i.e. trying to persuade council members to vote a certain way. I’ve given some more thought to this and wanted to expound.
I wouldn’t go in there telling them to vote a certain way. I would simply use the platform of the meeting to talk about why they have no right to control the behavior or property of others. I wouldn’t give any moral support to the idea of the vote. I realize they are going to vote on it, but that’s their game. What it comes down to is I’m not going to go through the motions and essentially act out what is to me a big lie. It’s the same reason I don’t rise for a judge. They are hoping I’ll go through the motions and act publicly in accordance with their lies, reinforcing them, and in complete contradiction to my deeply held beliefs. It’s disgusting and offensive to me. On the other hand, simply taking the opportunity of the meeting and telling them they have no right to control others is as honest as I could be.
On yesterday morning’s “Talkback” on WKBK, Free Minds Media’s Toby and Nick, Free Talk Live’s Ian and Mark, and The Obscured Truth Network’s Sam called the show and discussed freedom of the press in the city building, enforcing the law on bureaucrats, and tax rates. Then statist city councilor Chuck Redfern calls and accuses liberty activists of making “trivial” points and and “taking city resources”. The smarmy Dartmouth guy also calls to make his usual ad hominems that liberty activists are childish attention seekers and are “compromised psychologically and mentally”. A few friendly voices from the local area also called to support liberty activists.
Please join us for our weekly listening, chat, and calling sessions on Saturday mornings from 9a-12p in the Free Keene Chat room. If you’re online, you can listen to Talkback streamed live via the Liberty Radio Network and if you’re in the Keene area you can tune in to WKBK 1290 AM or 104.1 FM. The Talkback discussion thread is here on the Free Keene Forum.

Nationally syndicated radio talk show host Ian Freeman will spend 100 days in jail because he questioned the legitimacy of a system which would penalize him for having a couch in his yard and conduct his trial in secret.
