Carlos Miller’s Visit to NH was Especially Great, Thanks to Keene

Carlos Miller of Photography is Not a Crime spoke at the 2012 Liberty Forum and shared his thoughts on visiting NH, which include a ringing endorsement for Keene activism, plus his version of Monday morning’s arrests at Superior Court:

If you have an hour to kill and don’t mind spending it hearing me talking about photography rights, you might want to check out my talk at the 2012 New Hampshire Liberty Forum, which was just posted online.

I talk about my experiences running Photography is Not a Crime, including what motivated me to launch it.

The trip was a great experience, especially when I visited Keene Monday morning with some of the activists who had been banned from the Cheshire County Courthouse because they used cameras inside the building.

There is no state law that bans video recording inside courthouses. (more…)

News Piece on the Free State Project from WireNH

With the recent Liberty Forum 2012, the FSP got a nice boost of publicity with the media. Here’s another piece from WireNH’s Samantha Pearson:

Now a decade old, the Free State Project is one of several social movements across the nation seeking to ignite change.

Amid the growing number of new economic and political movements cropping up all over the United States in recent years, the Free State Project claims to have been working for more than a decade to motivate Libertarian-minded individuals to migrate to a central location and “create a freer, better society through the electoral process and cultural change.” (more…)

University System of New Hampshire and Governor John Lynch Rejoice at Ability To Continue Violating the New Hampshire Constitution

I haven’t spoken publicly much about the University System of New Hampshire gun protest that US Army Veteran Tommy Mozingo and I organised back in December as presently I am dedicating a great deal of my time focusing on defending Jason Talley from abuses of the New Hampshire Constitution.  Realizing that I’ve procrastinated long enough, I would like to share with you some thoughts about the Grafton Superior Court’s ruling and the state of firearm rights in New Hampshire.

In the opinion of Judge Vaughn, the University System of New Hampshire (an institution which belongs and is answerable to the people of this state) is NOT a political subdivision for the politically questionable issue of 2nd Amendment freedom, but is a political subdivision (by its own admission) for the politically not-so-questionable issue of being able to recoup damages in federal court.

I’m fairly sure that all of the municipalities in this state which serve as host communities to USNH property lose a great deal of tax revenue, while paying outward to provide services.

Why are they not paying taxes to local municipalities?

They’re a political subdivision, of course.
