Lauren Canario arrested and possibly Kat also

[error]

Terrorists, you know, those shadowy guys who want to attack us. Especially federal buildings. And FPS is understaffed. So Col. Therrien has taken it upon himself to protect every federal property in New Hampshire from terrorist attack, without having enough people to do the job.

There being no actual terrorists to hunt today, I guess he had plenty of time to devote to arresting a couple of harmless people.

GJ Ian I'm listening to the archives right now as a matter of fact.

Oh, it was you Therrien was yelling at about being nonobjective.  I couldn't see.  I thought it was Russell he was talking to.

I just remembered one conversation I had with the ICE guys yesterday.  That Mellor guy asked where my daughter was and asked what she thought about all this.  I said she was proud of what we do.  I said yes and he asked if I forced her to believe that and be involved in all this.  I told him that would be very un-libertarian and that she has a choice whether to join in or not and that I was disturbed when she just adopts my point of view cause I'm her mother, and doesn't think it all out herself.

I haven't logged in here in a while but I'm happy that Lauren and Kat were let go after stickin' it to the man. Free Dave Ridley!

They were "let go" with a $125 citation, pretty much what they did to Dave Ridley. I highly doubt either Lauren or Kat will be willing to give them their $125...

[Tom Sawyer]

Kat, Lauren, Russ, Jim....I don't know all of your names...I'm in awe of how awesome and brave you are.

So brave. So right and so nice to these clowns about being right. It takes courage...you guys rock. I absolutely love to death the picture of you all standing together. Can I get a copy of that picture??? I'd like to make it into a poster!

I keep intending to offer the images I've created in one place for folks to enjoy and see what fun is to be had. Make a gallery, I'll put this in my to do list...

Come out and play, I'd love to have you in one of my images...

Welcome to the Underground.

More positive karma for you Kat!  I wish my parents understood that the most important thing you can teach a child is how to think, not what to think.

Lucky for me, at the age of 16 I got my hands on forbidden books that taught me the how, and I quickly abandoned the what that I had been force-fed.

I would like to know, actually, exactly WHY my tax dollars are being wasted on paying a HS Department to stand by, ready at a moments notice, in Keene New Hampshire.

Further underscoring your point, my understanding is that they 'stand by' in Concord, wasting even more taxpayer dollars driving to Keene whenever they smell "trouble" brewing.

This is just ridiculous. Homeland Security = This is our plan for slowly turning your state into a Police State. Why else would they be here?

Good point.  The job description on their SUVs says it remarkably well: Federal Protective Service.  They do just that -- "protect" the Federal gov't from dissenting patriotic Americans.

So what happened?  It looks like the guy took your V mask and a sign and then brought them back?

Therrian brought them back to us.

Agree. 

[Kat Kanning]

Russell called the feds and let them know what we were going to do, but apparently they already knew.  Caleb talked to keene police about it Tuesday night and I assume they called the feds and told them.

[srqrebel]

Any superstitious folks out there?

Kat's karma is 911.

[KBCraig]

Kat's karma is 911.

It's obviously an inside job!

[Kat Kanning]

My vast network of conspirators have been working overtime.

I'm aware of that. I meant that I'm glad they weren't kept in jail.

I highly doubt either Lauren or Kat will be willing to give them their $125...

Bravo to these ladies. I realize they will be jailed for this stand. I salute their courage to do what is right in the face of evil.
