Concord 1/26 protest against seatbelt law

1/26 WED 12PM I'll be "sign waving" against the proposed seatbelt law.   An hour later the House meets.  I don't know what's on their agenda that day, but they'll be there so I'll be there.

I plan to make a sign and stand at the following location where one can be seen by half the reps as they go in.
To find me and join the fun:

Head to Louden and Main, right in front of the bank....

Most of the legislators will drive by me in the left hand turn lane on Louden.     Unfortunately since they are turning not all of them will see but this still seems to be the best spot and one gets seen by thousands of others besides the reps.    Protesting at the capitol itself a block south can be effective too but I'm no expert on that and I think you need a permit.   I think you can get that in the legislature building.

  Sign will probably say

FIGHT THE
SEATBELT
LAW

See you there...or not!

You could even keep track of how many people drive by without seatbelts on. :)

If we wanted to be a little more edgy...we could set up a seatbelt checkpoint at the entrances to the parking structures near the capital. ;D Give the polititians a little feel for our potential future experiences.

Just making and useing such a sign and making it obvious that the bill number can be changed sort of, makes its own statement.

"Having worked as a police officer in New Hampshire for a quarter century and now as the New Hampton police chief, Sawyer understands the "Live free or die" mentality. But when it comes to passing laws that will help make all people, state residents and visitors safer, Sawyer believes the motto doesn?t really apply.

So how many different kinds of "safety belts" is just enough Big Brother...I wonder ::)
