Ademo and Pete from LibertyonTour.com show how easy it can be to avoid confrontation with the police. Ask, “Am I being detained”, and if not, get the heck out of there. You have no obligation to stop and chat with the cops, and doing so only increases the chance they will kidnap and cage you:

Here are highlights from this morning’s Talkback on WKBK. A lady calls to point out how the city’s corporate buddies get away with things that average folks can’t. Also, there are calls about the jail, potholes, the federal government, currency, TV, imperialism, and democracy and republics.
Please join us for our weekly chat and calling sessions on Saturday mornings from 9a-12p. If you’re in the Keene area you can tune in to WKBK 1290 AM or 104.1 FM. The Talkback discussion thread is here on the Free Keene Forum.
Capuzzo still sits in a MA jail and writes us the following letters. You can send him mail online via mail-to-jail. Here are past Capuzzo posts.
Letter #7 from late February:
The eight month mark is closing in. In some ways, the time has flown by. At the same time, time has seemed to stand at a still. In either case, NH still seems a long ways away. I know the cases here in MA will be done soon, but after eight months of being dicked around by the court system, it just feels endless.
I often wonder if they realize that they are toying with a man’s life. I don’t think they understand just how this kind of shit affects a person mentally, especially after long periods of time. It’s not easy, for me at least, to integrate back into a functioning society after a time. I’ve even been at the point where I didn’t want to go home because it has become natural feeling to be inside the walls.
I won’t let that happen this time, though. I refuse to let them win this time. This is not my nature anymore. I bring this up because I’ve noticed that lately, every time I’m on the edge of giving up, someone pounds it into my head that I can’t give up. Whether it’s a letter from a friend, my mom, or the one person I’ve met here that I call a friend, they always seem to catch me at the right time and not even know it. (more…)
In the Sentinel’s letter section, Tom and Paula Duston, of Chesterfield, argue that they “feel much safer now”:
Wow, now several Republican state representatives want us to have a “permanent state defensive force” (Sentinel, Feb. 22). These guys would help with disaster relief and “defend the state against invasion!”
We live near the Vermont border and lately have had the feeling that a bunch of liberals could mass at any time on the Vermont side of the border and, with few casualties, invade and take over our state. Of course, the last battle of this invasion would be fought at the Statehouse where our concealed weapons force would hold out to the last man (I think most women are smart enough not to carry a concealed weapon!).
And the stuff about “disaster relief” suggests all kinds of cost savings. Just think of how much our taxes would go down if we didn’t have to train firefighters, the police, and emergency response personnel to deal with things like a crashed and leaking chlorine gas truck on Route 9.
And the Red Cross wouldn’t be always begging for money! All we would have to do is call in our gun-totin’ volunteer militia and they could just shoot the gas away. (more…)
FSP member Larken Rose asks some important questions about your obedience to the federal government and their tax demands:

As was reported here last week, Jim Johnson’s jury selection was held as scheduled yesterday morning, but I was under the impression the case would go right to trial, and I apologize for that mistake. Turns out the trial has been scheduled for 3/17 at 9am. The courtroom only holds 63 people including court bureaucrats, so please arrive in good time to get in the room.
Even though the jury selection process is a public event, all activists were prevented from entering the court yesterday morning, including Jim’s wife, Lauren. The excuse for this was the fire code, in that there were already too many people in the room to allow anyone besides potential jurors in there. The bailiff refused to allow any media into the room, including preventing Jim from bringing in a handheld audio recorder. Being as that we had been prepared to do our own recording and had been prevented by court security, I motioned the robed man to waive the $25 fee for the official audio record, which was actually approved. I picked up the audio today and dubbed it from the proprietary court record format to .mp3. Download Jim’s jury selection audio here.
Here’s the trial event for Jim on Facebook.
