The Cheshire County Courthouse was chalked with FIJA messages last night by freekeene.com bloggers.

FIJA is the Fully Informed Jury Association, which seeks to tell jurors that they have a right to not only judge the facts of the case, but the law itself. Messages read "FIJA.org", "You can change the law", "Your conscience is above the law", "Juries can overrule judges", "Stand down, your honor. Citizens outrank you.", "Vote YOUR conscience, not THEIRS" "The more corrupt the state, the more numerous the laws."

The chalk was removed, presumably by government workers before juror arrival time at 8 am this morning.

Dave Ridley

Dave Ridley of Manchester has now performed three illegal puppet shows. Ridley calls himself the “outlaw puppeteer” to highlight the fact that his performances are done without a license. State law requires that puppet shows for profit be licensed. Dave informed us that the state legislature had the opportunity earlier this year to remove outdated, useless laws, but did not do so.

Congratulations to Garret Ean of Concord on his first prize winning essay of the 2008 NH Liberty Essay Contest! For his winning essay, Garret has been awarded $150. Garret’s essay is reproduced in full below:

Liberty: The Balance of Peace and Justice

In working with government and public service organizations, I consider no greater task one can undertake than the spread and promotion of individual liberty. As humans, we grow up naturally believing that we are the center of the universe, since perception dictates that only what we see, feel, and experience are conditions of the world around us. To begin thinking philosophically, one can break away from this inherent egoism and acknowledge the aspirations and dreams of others. Taking these factors into consideration, we can realize that the only just way managing society is to allow individuals to manage themselves.

Congratulations to Elizabeth Rogers of Bow on her first prize winning essay of the 2008 NH Liberty Essay Contest! For her winning essay, Elizabeth has been awarded $75. Elizabeth’s essay is reproduced in full below:

Liberty and Individual Freedom

If the world had no individuality, where would civilization be? Even more so, what about individual freedoms? Without individual freedom, the fundamental, unspoken aspects of human life do not exist. The want to succeed, speak one’s mind, and help in the proceedings and particulars of projects and other endeavors, are all part of human nature. These are all hinged on individual liberties, which are indispensable.

Will Provide Self-Defense and Safety Training to LGBT Community

New Hampshire Pink Pistols will hold its first monthly range day Sunday, May 25 2008, 11:00am to 3:00pm in Deerfield, NH.

The Pink Pistols will meet the last Sunday of every month to practice shooting, and to acquaint people new to firearms with them. We will help participants select a firearm, acquire a concealed carry license if they choose to get one, and receive proper training in its safe and legal use for self-defense. The more people know that members of our community may be adequately equipped for self-defense, the less likely they will be to single out members of the LGBT community for attack.

Guests are encouraged to bring their own firearms and hearing protection, but these will be provided for those who do not own them.

Dave Ridley of Manchester performed his version of The Night Thoreau Spent in Jail to an audience of about 30 today. Ridley calls himself the “outlaw puppeteer” to highlight the fact that his performances are done without a license. State law requires that puppet shows for profit be licensed. Dave informed us before the show that the state legislature had the opportunity earlier this year to remove outdated, useless laws, but did not do so.
