Anti-Prohibition Cop Keeps Job – For Now

Brad Jardis dared speak out about ending prohibition and was targeted by the good-old-boys in the Epping police department for termination. Tonight at the termination hearing he was kept on as a police officer, pending a “psychological evaluation”. Will they determine that believing in liberty is crazy and fire him later? Time will tell. For now, Jardis is still a NH law enforcement officer. Plus, he’s a regular participant of the Free Keene Forum. Here’s his thread about this situation.

Dave Ridley interviews Brad moments after the well-attended hearing in Epping tonight:

4:20 at the State House

Activists from around NH gather at the gang’s headquarters in Concord called the “State House” and smoke cannabis. Security attempts to intervene, believing our group’s structure is the same as theirs, asking, “Who’s in charge here?”. No one and everyone, of course! Though daily 4:20 celebrations are not currently scheduled in Concord they are continuing in Keene and Manchester. That said, I imagine this will not be the last time a 4:20 celebration happens at the state house…
