Chalkupy Success

by | Mar 26, 2012 | 50 comments

This Friday a group of 25-30 activists (including 6 children) gathered across the street from the Richmond Police Department armed with several boxes on non-toxic chalk.  We were there to protest the $325 ticket issued to a mother, along with a ban from all city parks, for her child’s use of chalk on some rocks at Belle Isle.  After hearing this story on the news, I started a Facebook event to “chalk the police” in Richmond, VA.  The response was amazing, and we were able to gather a wonderful group of peaceful activists, along with every major news network in Richmond!  The event was a huge success, with no arrests, no tickets, and lots of pretty pictures.

Here is video from the event:

Kelly’s Chalking Trial

by | Mar 24, 2012 | 17 comments

On January 9, 2011, Kelly Voluntaryist chalked the side of the Manchester Courthouse with the words “Free Ademo” and a peace sign. This past Thursday, she defended herself against Agents of the State who seek to extract money from her for actions which hurt no one. It was decided that Kelly and the persecutor would have 10 days to write to the judge their most convincing cases, and his final decision would be made that way. Here is the video of the trial.
