Michele Seven’s Peaceful Caging

by | Nov 1, 2011 | 4 comments

It was a brisk and sunny October evening in the Shire. I drove down to the Cheshire County Jail where Freedom Activist Michele Seven would be turning herself over to the House of Corrections and serve time rather than pay the State a fine for driving without a State-approved “Registration” for her vehicle.

Having driven all around the continent without registering her cars with any State Agency for years, it was New Hampshire’s finest who finally put a halt to the Freedom Activist’s years-long crime spree of driving her vehicles without carrying Government-required papers.

When I met up with Michele, she looked composed and focussed. She has a sentence of 2.5 days which she will serve in consecutive Friday-Saturday overnight caging until time is served. She faces 8 more tickets of this kind and could face the same time for all of them. That’s every Friday night in jail for half a year—as punishment for not paying fines and registration fees to the Government.

About 8 Freedom Activists came out to send Michele off with hugs and words of appreciation, and the atmosphere was defined by a lightheartedness tempered by occasional reminders of the heavy-handed State.

I, for one, feel uplifted by Michele’s fortitude when facing the State. She lived her life as a free human until the agents of the State intervened, and now she’s choosing the lesser of two evils by aiding in her own caging rather than paying to perpetuate the State’s bad behavior.

Michele’s story is another powerful reminder of the depth of the saying, “Good people disobey bad laws.”

Free Keene – Blog Comments and a Rant

by | Sep 13, 2010 | 38 comments

FreeKeene.com welcomes all types of relevant discussion when replying to blog posts.  If you disagree with something and wish to make it known, please post a reply.  If you think something could be done better or differently, please let us know.  Just be sure to use your own handle.  Also, please, make your post somehow relevant to the subject being discussed and avoid posting advertisements, random song lyrics or simply random strings of incoherent text.

I have recently deleted several posts for name-stealing and spam, I will continue to do this so long as I have the capability to moderate the comments.  It was amusing how quickly individuals sought to blame and condemn Ian Freeman for the moderation.  As if he is the great boogieman of our time.  This has become typical with recent events, most notably the drinking game, and how people are so quick to generalize.

Sure Ian, Sam, Heika and a few others caused a stir, made some news and quickly became the appointed figureheads of the Free State Project in the eyes of so many.  Indeed, branded the leaders!  How laughable.

Condemning all as you would condemn one, casting all the individuals with all their diversity into one lot and then crucifying the whole.  This is ignorant and foolish.  It is this type of thinking that has helped justify segregation, slavery and genocide.  Are you no better than those of the 19th century?
