95%+ of the FreeStateBlogs traffic is "really" directed from Digg.com -- I blogged about the video and Dugg it, and that lead to thousands of people discovering the NH freedom movement.

It is cited regularly on opencarry.org. Even in the non-NH state forums, I see it pop up as a reference, and there is always at least a reply or two: "Wow! Another Ridley fan!" "Yeah, I love the Ridley Report!"

I was just finding out how corrupt our system is, and was nervous...
Dave and this forum have made me feel better once I am in the loop personally I will feel mucho bettero

AnCapMan

Wow. Just went thru this whole thread.

True Story.

THIS video is what got me turned on to the FSP. I had heard of it before way back on lewrockwell.com but dave ridley and his ridley reports and specifically this video got my wife and I on the road to the FSP.

dada Orwell I will be in NH in 5/4 - 5/6. I would really like to buy you a drink, shake your hand and thank you for leading me to this group of fellow liberty lovers.

The video wasn't a Ridley Report. Although Dave handled himself very well and promoted it extensively. :)
I produced it and TackleTheWorld put it up on YouTube.

Russell was like the Rodeo Clown, drawing the "bulls" attention. ;D

113,456 views so far.  8)

Russell Kanning

have to check in every once in a while to see if people are still calling us names

AnCapMan

Well Tom,

I would like to buy you a drink and shake your hand and thank you as well. I suppose I would have to include the crazy guy in the striped shirt as well. I wouldn't want to leave Russell out as he might get upset and say "I'm a real person!" until he gets one too. LOL

Seriously this video changed my life.
It led me to researching my beliefs. Which led me to freekeene.com after seeing it advertised on the ridley report which led me to the audio book which led me to the FSP which led me to consider the move which led me to the SOI which led me to NHFree which lead me to make plans to move this year. Amazing what one video can do.

Kat Kanning

That's really cool  :D

What's the audio book you refer to?

AnCapMan

The market for liberty. Ian reads it and it's also availabe in PDF format at book.freekeene.com. I have sent many people to that link over many months.

Engage in activism that inspires others along the same path... That was my goal.  :) 8)

I also neglected to credit error for creating and maintaining the Porc 411 system, quite a powerful service.

yes, the most popular "ridley video" by a factor of five...

and it's not a ridley video
but a polticalgraffiti.com video

AnCapMan

Right I got the source of the video wrong. I originally saw it on YouTube.com doing searches for open carry incidents. Which eventually led me to your ridleyreport site. And the rest I stated above.

Either way I am thankful that I found this video back then. At that time I was just an open carry advocate. It would be fair to say had I not seen the video I would still be just a Libertarian Party guy. Instead I am a libertarian(notice the lower case). And a free market anarcho capitalist. Before a pawn of the state. After a liberty activist.

Regardless would still like to meet you, Tom, Ian, Russell, Kat, Error and anyone else I accidently am leaving out, and give my thanks. You all made a huge change in me and in turn I have made changes in others. I have turned a card carrying socialist into an anarcho capitalist. And turned many much easier converts as well. All because I stumbled on 1 video.
