On January 14 at 9:40am a Petition for Redress of Grievances was filed against State Representative Cynthia Chase with the Clerk of the NH State House.
After the Clerk received the petition, she stated that she would have to re-read the rules to know how to proceed. My understanding of the rule is that ALL petitions for redress filed with the Clerk, must be read on the floor of the House before being filed. The next meeting of the State House is Wednesday the January 16; so I guess we shall see what happens next.
In the mean time, I will contact some of the State Rep’s who are friendly towards the cause of liberty to see if they will ensure the petition is read on the floor of the House.
In early October of last year, Chalk the Police Day was celebrated internationally. Readers of this blog may remember the story of a particularly pushy bureaucrat who called the police on chalkers — only to have police join the fun!
I’ve seen Andy a few times since this encounter. He was present at the opening of the pedestrian North Bridge and also at a recent city council committee meeting that I had attended. He’s never taken the opportunity to apologize for his behavior. Even if you accidentally bump someone or their property, the courteous thing to do is to square up on the mistake. So when I heard Andy would be on WKBK’s Talkback this morning, I tuned in.
I listened as a friend call in about the video and asked if Andy had anything to say about it. He chose to say nothing beyond that he had “learned from it” and was moving on. I decided to call in and hold his feet to the fire. The audio will be available once the show’s podcast is posted. After I prompt Andy to reflect on the video and consider apologizing, my call is hung up on. Hearing the radio after the call, the hosts imply that some people ‘harass’ city officials. Derrick J called in soon after that, and asked why the hosts were characterizing others as harassing, when it was the Parks and Recreation director who had engaged in unprivileged physical contact.
Why do you think it’s appropriate to act in an official capacity while intentionally concealing your identity badge?
At that, Cynthia responded, “I don’t want to talk about this”, and he was hung up on. I called in shortly after that, and should have been recording, because my approximately 10-20 second call was not just hung up on, but dumped, meaning it was erased from broadcast. Listening to the radio, you would hear the seconds before my call, and the seconds immediately after.(more…)
Presenting Day Zero of Free Concord’s Occupied Chicagoseries. The series features limited commentary over the raw video taken while traveling to and attending the NATO summit protests last May. This segment takes place in Boston, and begins with the group returning to its starting point eight hours after departure. After finding out that our bus trip would be replaced with a flight from Logan airport, some consumed their goods that were not approved by the TSA. This attracted South Station’s police, who in decriminalized Massachusetts chose not to act against the smokers. Once bus transport for the two or three among us who couldn’t fly is secured, an activist from Acton reads the subway guidelines for the week of the summit in Chicago. The video ends with a preview of Day One’s footage, to be released in the next week.
About five minutes after sending me an email threatening me over my Liberty 94.3 yard sign, Fred Parsells arrives, parks in the street, and appears to steal the same sign from my neighbor Clyde Freeman’s yard. Why didn’t he come steal the one from my yard? He claims in his email it was due to the NO TRESPASS NOTICE I issued to all city employees back in May 2011 – apparently that actually stops him from coming on the property without a court order. Here is surveillance video of Fred committing the act this morning at 11:35-37am:
Will Fred be held accountable for his crime? Doubtful. Remember, it’s not stealing when people calling themselves “the government” take things that don’t belong to them. Stay tuned for updates. I’m not taking the sign down.
Here’s Fred’s email, where he tries to play like he is my buddy. Hey Fred, I don’t know how you were raised, but I was raised to think that friends shouldn’t steal from each other.
RE: 73-75 Leveret Street sign violation
Greetings and Happy New Year Ian:
Recently it has come to the attention of the City of Keene/me via an anonymous complaint made to the Keene Police Department that there is an illegal sign on your property (more…)
Who is the parking meter-lover (and lady friend) haranguing Robin Hooders in this video? He attempts to intimidate Christopher Cantwell by invading his personal space, threatens to engage in disorderly conduct by blocking someone’s path, then actually engages in disorderly conduct by purposefully obstructing traffic (going about 5 MPH) in order to save the meter maid from being followed by liberty activists.
If you thought you’d seen it all when it comes to Robin Hooding, wait until you get a load of this guy and his lady friend. (One local says she used to be a parking enforcer herself, which would explain his behavior.)
