Out in front of the “town hall” with Kelly Ayotte yesterday in Fitzwilliam, I had the chance to interview Tracy who was there holding a #shameonyou sign with her wife and some friends who were holding “Stop Gun Violence Now” signs. We discussed Gay Marriage, Secession, and Bitcoin!
Out in front of the “town hall” with Kelly Ayotte yesterday in Fitzwilliam, I had the chance to interview a group of people with signs referencing “Don’t Tread on Me” and the constitution and such. I wanted to know what they thought of secession. I got some mixed answers, a lot of collectivist-speak, and ended up talking about Islam with one of them. Enjoy!
At her “town hall” meeting in Fitzwilliam, NH yesterday, I encountered Kelly Ayotte, former NH Attorney General and now US Senator outside before she entered the building with her security.

Now he plans to fight the accusation that he violated a municipal ordinance before the event.
A hearing will be held May 22 in Palmer District Court on a motion to dismiss the ordinance violation of being disorderly before the public auction. Freeman is being represented by William C. Newman, Western Massachusetts director of the American Civil Liberties Union.
“I didn’t do anything wrong . . . It shouldn’t be a crime to record video in a public place,” Freeman, 32, said Wednesday. “I’m willing to go all the way to help protect people in a similar situation.” (more…)
