Just yesterday a new activist website for the Upper Valley region of NH, UpperValleyLiberty.com, made a splash by announcing that next year’s 4:20 events up there will include open containers of alcohol! Of course, that has already happened here in Keene at some of the 4:20 celebrations, but it was never announced publicly. It appears that UVL’s blogger Kevin has upped the ante and has announce that he intends to enjoy an alcoholic beverage in public during next year’s events.
Will Keene’s 4:20 events also expand to include alcohol in 2010? As long as people are drinking responsibly, I think it’d be a fine addition, but it’s not up to me…
On the day of the general election I went to Ward 4’s voting location with the intention of voting for Free Keene’s Nick Ryder. As the city clerk had promised, I had indeed been removed from the voters’ rolls because I’d registered to vote with my “domicile” as my box at the UPS Store. On the day of the general election I was homeless and decided to register to vote as such. As happened during the primary, they did everything they could to prevent me from taking part in their system. (Interestingly, people like me who prefer outside-the-system activism are incessantly told that we should work within the system, but if we try to, this is the kind of crap that happens.)
So I tried to register as a homeless person and despite signing TWO forms under penalty of perjury (the “domicile affidavit” and the “voter challenge affidavit”) they STILL refused to accept my registration! I immediately pulled out my blackberry and QIKked their explanation. Turns out because the “checklist supervisor” didn’t FEEL like I was homeless, that was enough to deny me the right to vote. It didn’t matter one iota that I’d sworn an oath to my claim being true. My supposed right to vote was DENIED. Watch as it happened:
Liberty advocates called “Talkback” on WKBK last week to discuss the right/left paradigm, the federal gang, govt schools, educating the poor, free market education, and the cost of education.
Please join us for our weekly chat and calling sessions on Saturday mornings from 11a-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.
Word has just been posted on the Free Keene Forum that the final 4:20 cannabis celebration for 2009 will be from 3p-5p this Saturday 11/14 at Keene’s Central Square. It’s my understanding that the event originators wanted to go out with a bang rather than have attendance dwindle down as the temperatures drop. I imagine you’ll see the celebrations restart sometime in 2010, maybe around 4/20? Bring your own bud and see you there!
