Liberty-minded people called “Talkback” on WKBK last week to discuss parole, the Free State Project, the federal thugs, drug war, immigration, open container, city ordinances, and drunk drivers.
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.
The video of last night’s arrests is not yet available – stay tuned here to Free Keene for that. However, the Keene Sentinel’s Kyle Jarvis has written up his report:
Two men affiliated with the libertarian Free Keene movement were arrested Thursday night when they refused to dispose of what appeared to be alcoholic beverages during a Keene City Council meeting.
Ian Bernard, 30, of Keene, who goes by the name Ian Freeman, and Sam Miller, 34, of Keene, who goes by Sam Dodson, were arrested by Keene Police Chief Kenneth J. Meola during a recess of the meeting.

About half appeared to be drinking bottled beer, which they’d brought in a small cooler.
About 10 minutes into the meeting, Mayor Philip Dale Pregent announced, “We do not allow alcoholic beverages in council chambers,” and advised the group, “If you don’t dispose of the beverages, you’ll be asked to leave.” (more…)

The donations from signers and money for supplies was ripped off by a US Postal worker who was able to heist 2 rounds of Silver, a 5g & 1g Shire Silver card, and 40 dollars. After cutting it open, they were nice enough to add scotch tape to the empty envelope which was delivered.
Was it some angry keene postal worker? The truth is, we will never know because the US postal bureaucracy pales in comparison to the tracking capabilities of private carriers. This is the second time I’ve had mail stolen. The first time was about 10 years ago when a postal worker stole a box of checks and went on a shopping spree.
For those of you that think the postal service is an independent The total US mail service pay in taxes bill for 2010: $0.
Do you think that gives them an advantage over FedEx, UPS, and DHL?
Pete and Adam from Liberty on Tour present a two-part update on the aggression that was committed against them by the people calling themselves the “Town of Greenfield”:
