Free State Project participants Aaron Day and Matt Philips stirred up controversy in their recent run for school board and town council. The election results (here and here) show that despite the opposition spending thousands to send full-color hitpiece propaganda to every household in Bedford, the liberty-oriented candidates received about 25% of the votes. Aaron Day received over 23% and Matt Philips over 27%. Philips also did not come in last in his race. This is a stellar result for first-time candidates!
Unfortunately I did not win the school board race in Bedford (Matt also lost his Town Council race). Congratulations to Bill Foote and Bill Kassler on their victories.
I am grateful for the 1129 people who did vote for me (more…)
Chris Cantwell published a blog post this week in which he made the case that violent revolution is moral, possible, and practical.
To me, Cantwell’s argument comes down to: “Violent revolution is the right thing to do.” Specifically, he advocates for killing in self defense. In other words, killing police that would otherwise be killing you. He argues that peaceful resistance is fruitless because, “ideas require teeth.” He seems to assert, “Why allow our friends to be relegated to the dustbins of history for standing on principle? As long as the State can legitimately kill and cage us, we’ll never have peace or freedom!” (more…)
Robin Hooders visited Laconia, NH’s downtown yesterday. Not a single parking meter in sight, but yet there are plenty of businesses in their bustling downtown.
How can this be? If the city of Keene’s claims are to be believed, parking meters are necessary to help businesses – what a crock!
The city people are lying. Either that or they are seriously misinformed about parking meters. Plenty of towns and cities are doing just fine without them.
This week’s AKPF #1 installment is the second of three parts of Robin Hood’s Direct Action Panel from the 2014 New Hampshire Liberty Forum. This never before seen edit of the panel includes b-roll embedded to better illustrate the scenes as painted by the panel. This footage will air on Cheshire TV at 7:00pm on March 17, as per the usual AKPF #1 timeslot.
You may have noticed that Free Keene has had a much-needed theme change. This new theme is “responsive”, unlike our old one, and should work better on mobile devices, plus it has a fancy menu that stays at the top of the screen as you scroll down. There’s still some tweaking that needs to be done, so bear with us. Please report any issues via the Shire Society forums.
