The full court video is currently uploading to YouTube, which will take several hours to complete. While you wait, check out Darryl, Mark and I discussing the court hearing in detail on last night’s Free Talk Live:

While Robin Hooders prepare to spend a full day in court, this evening Concord city bureaucrats will hold the public hearing on the now infamous BEARCAT grant sought by the police. At 7pm, the public meeting is slated to begin at the council chambers on Green Street. Check out the informative response from Occupy New Hampshire, reformed following the decision to label them a terrorist group by the local police, who gathered to express their opposition to militarism and corporate protectionism. Additional coverage has recently run in Mother Jones, The Washington Times, Common Dreams, and The Boston Liberal. As posted to the Concord-NH.patch.com:
Participants and sympathizers of what was the Occupy New Hampshire movement are shocked to learn that the city of Concord considers us a potential threat to public safety and that we “present daily challenges.” In fact, the city considers us such a threat that it filed a fraudulent grant request to purchase a quarter of a million dollar armored attack vehicle to protect the community from non violent activists in this state.
Occupy NH established an explicit nonviolent ethic at its onset. No ONH event has ever witnessed a single act of violence. Furthermore, while Chief Duval claims that this is for the protection of the citizens of Concord, and wonders about the concern of citizens outside of Concord, he made this process a statewide issue and invited non-Concord residents to participate in the discussion and decision making process by targeting statewide organizations such as Occupy New Hampshire, and the Free State Project.

The long awaited day will be soon upon us, as Prince John Maclean and his court Jester Tom Mullins take Robin Hood of Keene to court. While the legal wranglers conspired deviously behind the scenes, the Merry women and men prepared for the showdown on the court itself. This morning, the following video was released to AKPF confirming that the resistance is ready to taste victory in the face of the royalty’s bold challenge.

Robin Hooding has been going strong and consistent since around the turn of the new year. In the thousands of collective hours that the Merry people have spent marching the streets of Keene, we’ve seen our share of haters. For every few supporters, there’s usually one detractor, and of the few dozen who will yell out profanities or insults, only a handful have ever gotten physical. There was Bradford Hutchinson, a well known indigent local who often goes under the moniker ‘the King of Keene’ online. He was upset over the Merry people’s nullification of the parking enforcer’s jobs, and expressed himself by waving a can of pepper spray in Garret’s face before trying to grab him around the head. Deflected with minimal resistance, he eventually wandered off on his own.
Then there was Nicholas McCallister, who seemed less concerned about Robin Hooding and more concerned with civilians in possession of cameras. He began threatening me while I was with James and Graham, while none of us were filming, thus resulting in him getting his wish and becoming a video star. For all of his huffing and puffing, he seemed content with punching James in the arm and, like Bradford, wandering off. (more…)
On Monday, August 12, 2013 at 9 AM, the “Evidentiary” hearing for the Robin Hooding lawsuit will commence at:
Court Room 1, Superior Court, 12 Court Street, Keene NH 03431.
The hearing is allotted seven hours and will determine if there is any grounds to continue the lawsuit and if a preliminary injunction should be granted against the respondents placing restrictions on their constitutionally protected rights of freedom of speech, freedom of the press, and freedom of assembly.
As previously mentioned, Jon Meyer is representing five of the robin hooders and Pete Erye is going pro se.
The “city of Keene” has hired a private law firm at an unknown cost to Keene taxpayers to represent “its” interests despite having a city attorney and his own assistants.
It should be interesting to see the supposed evidence that the “city” has regarding all the so-called “harassing” behavior by the robin hooders.
There is a chance that this ridiculous case will be dropped on constitutional issues.
If you can make it, I hope to see you there.
Yours Truly,
-James ‘Robin Hood’ Cleaveland
