The document mentions civil disobedience, but really focuses on the political successes that FSP participants have had – a real testament to the success of that style of activism.
Clearly working within the system is working here, unlike everywhere else. The politicos have been vindicated, but this document is also proof that there is no safe road. There’s no way to make everyone happy if what you want is to change the status quo.
Looks like we are well on our way on the path Gandhi made famous:
“First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.”
Wondering what’s going on with Manchester West High School’s MaryEllen McGorry? You know, the bureaucrat that testified against Ademo and supported the police officer who slamed a teen’s head against a lunchroom table? She was suspended recently pending an investigation. What has become of that?
Well, it’s a “personnel issue”, so you don’t get to know anything about it, despite being forced to pay for their monopoly on education. Dave Ridley gets the story:
The Union Leader is reporting that the race in Hillsboro district 12 is a republican Free Stater vs a democrat Free Stater. Look for more of this in the future as more activists move here and take over the Republican and Democrat parties.
If you’ve been following the United States presidential race, there’s a chance you’ve seen the viral video of an Obama supporter explaining that she supports her candidate because of a free Obama-phone. While telecommunications is an important issue to many Americans, Free Concord presents an alternative spin on the monologue from a foreign policy perspective.

In addition to previous Free Concord coverage of Barack Obama’s recent campaign stop in Manchester, Dave Ridley has posted four videos so far from his eye on the ground. Rather than playing it normal and objectively recording the event, as I tried, Dave walked along the periphery of the security perimeter, and interacted with police and secret service along the way. He asked poignant questions of the secret service, Obama staffers, and event attendees. Some of his questions pertained to Obama’s treatment of Bradley Manning, and there is one encounter early on with USSS in which it is insisted that he not film, though no action is taken. In the fourth video, a Manchester officer tells him that he is required to answer questions and are seen clearing the sidewalk of all people before the president’s entourage passes through. You can see the one brief encounter I had with a suited USSS agent when I tried to film from inside the secured area here. Ridley’s four videos are embedded below. Additional newsprint coverage is available from the Union Leader and the Concord Monitor.
New Hampshire Republican Liberty Caucus Chairman Carolyn McKinney has penned an excellent article explaining why it is important to vote in support of Question #2 on November 6th.
Question #2 is a proposed amendment to Part II, Article 73-a of the New Hampshire Constitution that will allow greater public oversight of those who have the power to make rules that literally have the force of law.
Chairman McKinney’s article mentions judicial abuses suffered by Keene, NH based judicial monitoring activists and journalists as examples of the abuses that justify greater oversight of judicial authority.
