In coordination with fine police departments like the one Nashua New Hampshire, we at Citizens Respecting the Authority of Police have announced our Problem Creation Policing campaign. It’s crazy and coming to a neighborhood near you. Modeled after the NPD’s Problem Oriented Policing.
Details found here:

I’m always just on the verge of posting these points–but it sounds so much better when you sing it!
AT LAST WE SEE THE ERROR OF OUR WAYS
I’ve seen you in the website’s COMMENTS section
Masked with an anonymous facade
Deriding what you paint as my rejection
Of Mom and flag and apple pie and God.
No sense of truth or justice can divert you–
You have none, and it’s really rather sad.
Just paint yourself the soul of mind and virtue,
And those who disagree with you as bad.
And in your mind:
The world exults in wonder at your penchant
To mystify, astonish and amaze!
With insight and analysis so trenchant,
At last we see the error of our ways!
Riiight!

Big Mike’s arrest — and the cowardly conceit of the cop responsible — have provided a wealth of inspiration, in activist ideas, protest techniques, and, but of course, artistic endeavors. In that last category, I submit the following:
There’s no real melody for this piece. It mimics the style popularized on many a decoupaged plaque from roadside boutiques specializing in cheap gimcracks (I can provide a number of Plan 9 from Outer Space – level-quality examples discovered in the course of my research).:
A POLICEMAN’S PRAYER
LORD, when I don the badge and blue,
Make strong my heart to keep
My goal to ever be like You–
In charge of all the sheep.

THIS ORGANIZATION IS IN DISORGANIZATION
COPYRIGHT 2010 by Sam A. Robrin or whoever the hell it is who writes these things. Go ahead and use it, but if you make a little money on it, I want some!
Free State freedom activists look pompously askance
At anyone suggesting planning projects in advance.
Protests limp along not with a bang, but with the whimp’r of
A group of high school kids making impromptu tries at improv.
Headaches, itching, nosebleeds, palpitations, sweats, and trembling
Are side effects of any course of action but assembling
Slapdashedly together at the last remaining minute.
It’s messy, muddled madness with no trace of method in it.
Many activists are known to faint or throw up
At the proffer of polite entreaties to show up.
One fact’s irrefutable from careful observation:
This organization is in disorganization!
Freedom-lovers focus on life’s joys and how to get them —
Not in crafting tactics to persuade the State to let them.
Dealing with the State’s inane — sane folks don’t manage well with it,
The rational reaction is to simply say the hell with it. (more…)
Liberty-minded people called “Talkback” on WKBK last week to discuss taxes, the jail, the misconceptions surrounding people in jail and prohibition.
Please join us for our weekly chat and calling sessions on Saturday mornings from 11a-12p in the Liberty Radio Network Chat room. If you’re online, you can listen to Talkback streamed live via the Liberty Radio Network and if you’re in the Keene area you can tune in to WKBK 1290 AM or 104.1 FM. The Talkback discussion thread is here on the Free Keene Forum.
SING THAT FREEDOM SONG!
To convey our message to the population,
Oftentimes complex ideas take too long.
The news will air some puzzling truncation.
Say it briefly and with beauty in a song!
TV soundbytes are perceived as so much blather,
And will be reacted to dismissively.
The viewers of the nightly news would rather
Absorb new thoughts with rhyme and melody.
We can faintly hear the chimes of freedom ringing
While establishing our frisky form of order,
But if we don’t find our voice and get to singing,
This project won’t project beyond the border.
Shouting vicious insults, making threats, and ranting
Won’t reflect repute as reasoned paragons.
Neither will the weak resort to mindless chanting
Like obsequious tea-party neocons. (more…)
