Well over 100 turned out for a 420 celebration at the Concord state house, now in its third year! The Shire Choir performed several “Chronic Carols” inside the state house, while plenty of cannabis was smoked in front of the building as state police looked on. Thanks to the police for doing the right thing and standing down and allowing peaceful people to be free.
My little radio show, Free Talk Live, based here in Keene at the LRN.FM studio, was just ranked at #52 of 100 (up from #79 last year!) in the TALKERS Magazine “Heavy Hundred” yearly list of the “most influential talk radio hosts”. Thank you to all our listeners and stations and supporters who helped make this possible!
Sadly, it is only heard in Keene on WKBK radio on Saturday nights, and that’s when baseball isn’t on. Perhaps someday Monadnock Radio Group will expand our coverage in Keene, considering we scored better on the list than did Boston conservaclone Howie Carr, who ranks at #56, as well as Wall St. Journal’s Michael Castner who is #61.
There’s a neat new website that is tracking the top “libertarian” websites on a regular basis based on data from Compete. Free Keene scored at #66! Other NH-based liberty sites are also on the list, including Shire Society at #82, LRN.FM at #81, Free Talk Live at #60, Free State Project at #53, Porcfest at #100, Liberty on Tour at #125, and Cop Block at #36!
The costumed men, habitual threats levied, ridiculous formal rituals, and attempts to force me to respect a system I abhor is enough to drive me crazy. It doesn’t because I don’t allow it to, because if it does they are winning and we all know I don’t want that! However, I must admit it is taking up a certain amount of my time and, worse, my energy. Legal land sucks. It truly is the worst part of civil disobedience. Every action has an equal and opposite reaction, and I choose to live free with the knowledge that, in one way or another, I will pay the price.
