Lauren kidnapped roadside by thugs Oct. 2nd

[Kat Kanning]

I've decided to show Jason what it really looks like when we invoke the Free State Project name at every step.  I'm going to identify myself as "Kat Kanning, former Director of the Free State Project" in all my articles for the Keene Free Press, and introduce myself that way to all members of the media I talk to.  If we're going to take the blame for doing this, we might as well actually do it and try and recruit people like us, rather than people like the FSP board wants to recruit.

well russell i like the idea of shire time cause i'm sick of my electonics changing at the wrong goddam time i'm all for one full 24 hour period 365 days a year. There are also other reasons  but thats the one that bugs me the most . Besides getting up in the dark and getting done work at dark. makes a long dark day.

I wonder if there are any laws about carrying burning torches in an urban area?  Somehow, I suspect they'll come up with one.  Torch bearers may wind up getting a ride, as opposed to a walk, to the jail.   

Note to self: put reminder in Outlook calendar: leave work early to engage in acts of angry mobdom.    Bring V Mask to office.  Bite back joke about making fertilizer bomb not look like Aqua Teen Hunger Force character cuz then the coppers will know what it is.  (Homeland Security has made such humor hazardous to one's health.)

they don't need rules ... they just make them up as they go along

[Russell Kanning]

uh oh ... Kat is going hardcore on Jason

[Kat Kanning]

I just sent this LTE to the Telegraph:

Lauren Canario's act of civil disobedience (Protester's actions damage her cause, Oct. 28) draws attention to the issue, and sometimes that is enough to begin the process of change.

In 2005, Michael Fisher performed a manicure without a license in front of the offices of the Board of Barbering, Cosmetology and Esthetics in Concord to draw attention to what he believed were unconstitutional laws. This year, Gov. Lynch signed SB43, which reduces the requirements for obtaining a barber license.

Once, long ago, our government respected our right to travel peaceably. No license was required to ride a horse or drive a stagecoach. Yet 100 years ago, public hysteria over the dangers of horseless carriages led states to begin licensing them and their drivers.

Today our right to travel is under attack from all sides. Now, people must have a license in order to travel by airplane, or even to take the commuter bus to Boston. Lauren's protest draws attention to this critical issue.

Nice letter.    Should I put it up on freelaurencanario.com?

OK... so Lauren said "I don't have any." and the bile and hatred comes raining down.

Some selected quotes that the Law and Order crowd have left as comments on the video.

...why don't you experiment with a road flare vest in a National Guard Armory and see how much freedom they give you there. Idiots. You are the reason that real political change is so impossible. Too many fringe crackpots elbowing the real politicos out of the field.
NuckleDragon

...The crazy bitch needs to follow the rules, simple as that. She could always leave NH or USA if she doe not like the rules, no one asked her to be here. YOU HAVE TO FOLLOW THE RULES, YOU HAVE TO PAY TAXES, YOU HAVE TO OBEY LAWS.

These are the same type of people who bomb federal buildings or shoot federal agents who try to arrest them for stockpiling weapons.

Is NucklesDragon (on the ground) a Free Stater?  I've only ever heard a Free Stater use the term 'politico'.
He sounds like a dyed in the wool Bushy Republican, like Jane.

That Stockholm Syndrome is some powerful stuff.  Not only do these people defend their oppressors, they do so violently.

Nah. Google shows 49.6 million results for the term.

I've used the term polit to refer to politicians before. That's actually a term from Nineteen Eighty-Four for political prisoners, but it has a nicely derisive sound to it that adapts well to speaking of politicians I don't like.

[dalebert]

Such violent fantasies these people have! They're just showing their true colors. I think they are actually helping Lauren's cause.

[David]

I've used the word politicos on occasion.  No I am not that ass. 

I wish I could say I was surprised by the level of ignorance of some people. 

That is not ignorance, that is hatred.  I am very surprised.  It makes me want to go to alaska and live the rest of my life in an igloo, just to get away from people like that.  The violence of mankind never ceases to amaze me.

Our pal spreading joy and cheer and on youtube just the way he does here:
