Freedom to Travel Event, Part 3

[JonM]

If we were not meddling in the affairs of other countries, we would have very little threat from terrorism.  As Thomas Jefferson put it, we should have,  "Peace, commerce, and honest friendship with all nations ? entangling alliances with none."  Ceasing to be the world's bully is the answer to our terrorist problem, not more and more invasive security.

That might cause distraction from your overall point.  The line about Jesus might really tweak some people, but that may be what you want.  Some people are overly sensitive after all.

[Lloyd Danforth]

I'm a little sensitive about invoking Thoreau, a New Englander, but, I'll get over it

[Kat Kanning]

I'm going to be on WRKO in Boston either at 7:05 or 7:35.  It looks like there's an internet feed.  http://www.wrko.com/

[John]

WRKO is 680 AM on the radio.

[John]

They just mentiond that this is coming up . . . sounded like soon, then they said  "later on in the program" so they are starting to warm the topic up.

[Kat Kanning]

Thanks John, they were beatin me up!

[John]

Great job Kat.
Thank you!

[Kat Kanning]

Whew, the guy who called me didn't warn me it was going to be such a hostile interview.

[John]

You expected something different?   
What did the interviewer say he was "a former big L libertarian"?

They were missing the larger point.   

The other call was prety bright too, huh?   

[JonM]

WRKO will better at 9am.  "The Independent Man" should be nicer to you.

The US has not been, and should not become a country where men with guns demand, "Your papers please," at every street corner. For this, Kanning was arrested.


At this point, I know that I am in far greater danger from my own government than I am from any terrorist.

That was very well written!!

"When the government fears the People, that is Liberty. When the People fear the Government, that is tyranny." ~ Thomas Jefferson

DadaOrwell just called me and asked me to post this...

Kat was supposed to meet Mike Fisher at the courthouse this morning, but she didn't turn up, and Mike can't reach her and is worried.

Has anyone seen Kat since about 7:30 this morning, around the time when she left home?

I just forwarded your post to the liberty ladies to see if any of them have heard from her.  If I get a response I will post it right away.  I hope she is ok, has anyone spoken to Russell, has he been released yet??

[ravelkinbow]

Ok Kat's found...and Russell is out of jail.  Early word is he was charged with criminal trespass, and fined $1000.  with $800 suspended.  Expect they will have more details when they get home.

[John]

I was at the court all day, and just got back after waiting until 2:35 to possiblely drive Russell back to Keene if needed.? I'll spare you all the details for now..

If I am still needed I can still do that,? but better to know ASAP!
