do the 2 friends we have incarcerated have canteen accounts and are they funded?

probably not at this time
I don't think Lauren will get an account.

Is Burke really stupid enough to think he can stop resistance with a little bit heavier hand?

At any rate, my thoughts and prayers are with Ian.

Ian apparently had the address.  They said he sent a letter there.

I think this happened to Ian because he talked about protesting outside a judge's home.  They slapped him down.

Yes, this is exactly why.

[lastlady]

From the video footage is is obvious they were planning to arrest him. That footage is very powerful this is going to create a lot of attention.

I think they are in the trap where letting Ian do what he wants will encourage Ian to tell others that he is able to get away with what he did.  And if they act as they did today, they will encourage others to help support him after seeing them for what they are.

That's right. Either way, the thugs lose.

I like the "Freeman Fridays" idea.

Yeah though.. I'm not sure which way is better. A lot of people, me included, are still more encouraged if they see you actually can do or not do something and get away with it because we look forward to civil disobedience that doesn't result in months of jail time... So it may encourage people to speak up, rant on, sign up for this and that, go to this or that event.. but will it make them stop complying? Not so sure about that.

Not to mention that as a foreigner NH almost seems like a scary place.. At the same time you have the most liberty activists and so the most people who are actually like me and I could really hang out with, but also the most people getting arrested and tyrannized like this. It's supposed to be a "Free State".. But I guess it's a process.. and maybe the arrests here are just more visible.. in any case if I had a chance to move next year I probably would (I signed the pledge, but it's VERY hard to immigrate nowadays so it might not happen in years)..

Everyone chooses their comfort level. None of these folks came here this radical. Supporting the people that are taking the risks is an important role.
