Here is an important message from our friends at the Marijuana Policy Project:
On Monday, March 12, the House Health, Human Services, and Elderly Affairs Committee heard testimony on HB 774, a bill that would allow sick and dying patients to use medical marijuana if their doctor recommends it. The committee could vote on the bill as early as Tuesday!
Please take a moment now to visit https://ssl.capwiz.com/mpp/issues/alert/?alertid=9505521 and send a brief letter to the members of the committee. It will only take a moment with our automated system. It’s imperative that they hear from Granite Staters in support of HB 774 right away. (more…)

WKBK in Keene reported that Presidential Candidate Barack Obama is scheduled to make an appearance in Keene on Friday (3-16) as part of a New Hampshire campaign visit also including Concord. He’ll be at Keene High School for a 7:00pm event. Obama’s appearance will be covered by Keene’s Cheshire TV on channel 8. FreeKeene’s Free Minds TV will be live at 9:00pm the same night which could be a huge draw for new viewers stuck in the two party political quandary.

Every month, Keene’s very own internationally syndicated pro-Liberty talk radio show competes to be the top podcast in the world according to Podcast Alley. Every month we make it into the top ten, almost always taking the number one slot at one point during the month, but never finishing at #1. Last month we were #2 with a record vote total of over 1,660. With your help we can be number one. All we ask is a quick online vote. It’s fast, free, and only requires your email addresss (which will not be sold or spammed).

Remember, your vote helps promote Free Keene!

Ten people turned out to our first Free Keene meeting this afternoon, including the organizer of The New Hampshire Coalition for Common Sense Marijuana Policy (NH Common Sense for short). As usual, I was impressed with the enthusiasm and creativity the attendees expressed.
The topics of discussion began with the current situation on HB92, a bill designed to eliminate marijuana from the criminal drug laws as I understand it. If you have not done so already, please sign the petition. Also, stay tuned for a monthly newsletter and action alerts coming soon from NH Common Sense.
A brainstorming session for the upcoming 2007 municipal elections in Keene followed, including the discussion of what issues the people of Keene care about the most, and activating and encouraging Keene State students to get out and vote.
I encourage fellow liberty lovers and Keene-iacs in the area to attend in March!

At Free Keene’s first meeting Matthew Simon from NHCommonsense.org will be joining us to discuss the latest on Marijuana decriminalization in NH. We’ll also be discussing the city council’s invocation of “eminent domain”. Free Keene’s 2007 campaign will also be on the table for discussion. That’s this Sunday, details here.

Recently I interviewed John Croteau about this ridiculous, selectively enforced dumpster-fencing rule in Keene. Go to www.wkbkam.com and select “streaming audio”. You’ll find the interview in my archives. Tip: for some unknown reason you can download the interview with Firefox but only stream it in IE unless the station has fixed the problem. If you’d like a download link to the interview email me at ericscottshow AT gmail DOT com.
