Manchester Cop Attacks Student – Union Leader Reports

Copblock has originated shocking video of a Manchester cop abusing a young man in a school cafeteria:

The Union Leader reports:

MANCHESTER — A video showing a confrontation between a Manchester West High student and the school’s resource officer last week was not a setup, according to the student who filmed it.

But Mike Proulx, 17, says when he saw Detective Darren Murphy approach his friend Frank Harrington in the school cafeteria last Monday, he did think about the two men he and Harrington recently met who call themselves CopBlock and encourage civilians to videotape police officers.

So Proulx pulled out his iPod Touch and hit record.

What happened between Murphy and Harrington led to the student’s arrest and an internal investigation by the Manchester Police Department, expected to be completed early this week.

Adam Mueller and Pete Eyre, the founders of CopBlock.org, said they met Proulx and Harrington by happenstance a few weeks ago at a park on the city’s west side. They told the youths about their crusade to encourage people to film police officers on the job and gave them a DVD featuring videos of their activities in New Hampshire and other states. (more…)

Former Corrections Officer Loses Faith in Justice System After Daughter's Marijuana Conviction

This is money that will go towards the prosecution and caging of peaceful people like Bob Constantine and Patricia Smith who prefer home grown cannabis to state-supplied liquor. Why is the State of New Hampshire in the drug pushing business? Why do they cage their competitors?

Should Weeda Claus be locked in a Cage?

The Portsmouth Herald credits the boost to aggressive out-of-state marketing, new in-store programs and the modernization of the outlets.

If you’re a drug dealer in the black market you’re a pusher. If you’re selling booze on behalf of the state you’re a marketer.

State Liquor Cop Supports the War on Some Drugs

Talley.TV has covered two different protests at New Hampshire Liquor Stores that pointed out this hypocrisy. Since moving to New Hampshire I have met several victims of the “Live Free or Die” State’s War on Drugs. The following episodes of Talley.TV either take place at the liquor stores in New Hampshire or reference them as in the case of the interview with the former corrections officer. This playlist contains four videos that are linked to the thumbnails above:

As the below chart by SAFER illustrates, alcohol is far more harmful than marijuana. So why does the State of New Hampshire cage some people for using one type of drug, like cannabis, while selling a far more harmful drug, like alcohol.
