From the park to the police station, here is much better footage of Big Mike, the Keene-inspired activist who made a splash in Manchester this week as he toured around holding a piece of cannabis and asked Manchies how they felt about its illegality:
Here’s the video containing Cassidy’s arrest for being female and topless in public. There are several videos of the scene in addition to this and all of them can be found on Free Keene Live.
“Big Mike” arrived in New Hampshire this week and made good on his promise to bring Keene’s brand of civil disobedience activism to the Manchester area. My understanding of the story is as follows. After calling the police chief to announce his intentions, he walked around a Manchester park for a couple of hours asking people why marijuana is illegal, while holding a bud of it in his hands. No police showed themselves to enforce their statutes, so he proceeded to the police station and had a chat with the secretary, requesting an officer come talk to him about the issue, making it quite clear he was possessing the illicit plant material. After waiting in the lobby for over 30 minutes, he and the other activists decided to call it a day. No officers came over to talk to him, despite the fact that one was in visual range of him, as you can see in this low quality, raw video of the occasion. Hopefully better coverage will be released soon.
Welcome to NH, Big Mike – may civil disobedience begin sprouting up all across the state!
On last week’s “Talkback” on WKBK, liberty activists called to talk about parking, positive reinforcement, “disorderly houses”, and voluntary solutions. The smarmy Dartmouth guy also calls and proves he just hasn’t been paying attention.
