"Live free or die" is the motto of the state of New Hampshire. I hope the residents are prepared to die, because living free is not what they do. NH is merely a cog within the Amerikan Stasi State, but I am referring to what goes on within NH itself, not the police state existence imposed by Washington. On May 5, attorney William Baer was arrested at a school board meeting at which he went over a two-minute speaking rule while trying to get some explanation from the Gilford, NH, school board for assigning sexually explicit reading material to his 14-year old daughter's English class. The evasiveness of the school board angered Mr. Baer, and he spoke out again in support of another parent's protests, and was promptly arrested by a goon thug cop.
The school board chairman, Sue Allen, who has no legislative power, nevertheless managed to create a law backed by police violence. After all if Bush and Obama can create laws by edict, why not a school board chairman? Under Allen's edict, if a parent violates the two-minute rule that Allen imposed, she has the parent arrested. The goon thug cop wasn't embarrassed to arrest a parent for making a legitimate complaint during the public comment period of a school board meeting.
Remember, we "freedom and democracy" 'mericans have free speech and protest rights. Actually, don't remember that, because you no longer have any such rights. These rights are dangerous. They enable terrorists and extremists such as those dangerous people who don't believe The Government.
This is Amerika today. Mr Baer offered no resistance, but nevertheless was lucky that the goon thug cop did not taser him, pepper spray him, and call for a backup SWAT team to beat him senseless or even murder him.
Last month wedding guests at at the San Luis Hotel in Galveston, Texas, were set upon without reason by 34 crazed goon thug cops. The guests, including the father of the bride and the bride's brother were brutally beaten and maced along with many guests, including 13 who were arrested for asking, "what is going on?" The brother was so badly injured by the goon thugs that he had to be rushed via helicopter to a hospital.
The mayhem resulted from an off-duty goon thug witnessing a guest walk outside with an alcoholic beverage, thus violating the city's "open container" law. Instead of advising the guest of the open container law and recommending that he step back inside, the goon thug called the cops who arrived on the scene en mass and enjoyed themselves by beating up the wedding party.
No charges have been filed against the goon thugs for gratuitously beating up wedding guests. The right of cops to beat and murder the citizens who pay their salaries is now a perk of the job. It is necessary in order to keep us safe from criminals and terrorists, descriptions that are ever expanding.
Don't expect courts to put any restraint on police and prosecutors. Dave Lindorff and Molly Knefel have given accurate accounts of the frame-up of Cecily McMillan by a corrupt prosecutor and a corrupt goon thug. McMillan was convicted on the false charge of assaulting a police office when the goon thug seized her breasts from behind. The judge, Ronald Zwiebel, enabled the conviction by preventing the defense from showing the evidence. The gullible and very stupid jurors made certain that injustice was perpetrated. Now a young woman who was sexually assaulted faces a seven-year prison sentence for "assaulting" a goon thug.
This is Stasi Amerika today. And it gets worse. In Aliquippa, Pennsylvania, Eileen Battisti, a 53-year old widow, had her $280,000 home seized by Beaver County officials and sold at auction for $116,000 because of an unpaid $6.30 interest fee on the late payment of her school district taxes. A corrupt judge did not insist upon justice for the widow but instead upheld the robbery that benefitted both the county and the purchaser, S.P. Lewis, at the auction of her home. Lewis offered to sell the widow her home back for $250,000.
To see what cops are really like, read this.
Whatever you do, never call the cops. However bad you might think the situation is, it will be much worse once the goon thugs arrive.
And do not show any compassion for animals. Showing compassion for animals is proof that you are an animal-rights extremist which lumps you in with terrorists. In Albion, Michigan, extremists who feed a stray cat are fined and locked away for three months. Mary Musselman, an 81-year old Alzheimer sufferer was locked away for 90 days for feeding stray cats on her own property. When you see a starving animal, turn your back and walk away. Your inhumanity will be rewarded but your humanity will be severely punished.
Just keep in mind that "we have freedom and democracy" and we are "the exceptional and indispensable people." Our president told us so. This designation removes you from any responsibility to other humans, much less animals. Don't lose sight of the fact that Amerikans are so exceptional and indispensable that we have murdered seven entire countries in the new 21st century, and we are just getting started. As it is perfectly acceptable for Amerika to murder countries, how can it possibly matter if a goon thug cop murders you, your pet or your wife or husband or daughter or son?
What is so discouraging is that this article could be hundreds of thousands of pages long. I could sit here writing this article for the rest of my life, adding one incident after another, and not get beyond the tip of the iceberg.
The inhumanity of which Americans are capable and indulge in every day must scare Satan himself.
Parents arrested for protesting the assignment of pornographic reading material to 14-year olds by school boards, elderly and ill people imprisoned for feeding starving animals, pets murdered by police who are supposed to protect the citizens but instead mace them, beat them, body slam them, and shoot them and their pets gratuitously for the thrill of committing violence against life are the reason the public sector is in disrepute.
The worst people in the country are in our public institutions. This is why there is so little sympathy for the public sector unions now under attack by the Republicans. Americans look at their county commissions, their city councils, their criminal justice (sic) system, their governors, state legislatures, Congress, and the White House, and all that they see is evil and corruption.
There is nothing else there.
Americans who trust the criminal justice (sic) system are completely stupid. A case of mass wrongful conviction that I wrote about years ago finally came to trial last November. Annie Dookham, a Massachusetts state chemist who falsified drug tests, thus sentencing thousands of innocent people to years in prison, destroying their lives and the lives of their families, was sentenced to three to five years in prison. Dookhan sent thousands of innocents to prison in order to aid prosecutors in attaining high conviction rates and in order to achieve her own rise as a highly productive state employee. The judge noted that Dookham had cost the state millions of dollars in settling wrongful convictions and had shaken to the core the integrity of the criminal justice (sic) system.
State officials say that Dookhan's fake evidence could have tainted 40,000 cases. Ask yourself, what kind of person would destroy so many people in order to advance herself? And progressives think that the public sector is the answer.
You can ask the same question about the New York State Police and the Texas police who dropped little bags of ground up wallboard in cars stopped at random, conducted illegal searches, and arrested the occupants for drugs. Hundreds of innocents were convicted until finally one brave public defender demanded presentation of the alleged drugs and had the evidence tested. It came back: wallboard. All other public defenders had accommodated the conviction scheme and arranged plea bargains for their clients. You can read about these and other atrocities in my book, coauthored with Larry Stratton: The Tyranny of Good Intentions.
It only gets worse.

Re. William Baer, this is not what I see in the video. No goon thug cop, in fact the cop was very polite and even patient, taking into account how many times he had to repeat his request to stand up and be arrested, only met with "really?". The arrest was fully justified, in my view, because Mr Baer very obviously decided to block the meeting from going forward by immediately interrupting every word said by the chair, by his own. After multiple requests to stop, yes, it looks like the arrest was the only way to silence him. He definitely was not arrested for speaking his mind, but for trying to block others from speaking theirs. Watch the video, it's all there.
Very good observation about "The worst people in the country are in our public institutions." however. Indeed, recently it came to that pretty much anything that comes from any government, is yet another assault on the citizens.
Re.It doesn't matter if he was being an obstinate pain in the butt or if he was monopolizing the meeting...last I checked neither of those things is an arrest-able offence. I can think of about half dozen ways offhand to have handled this situation without having to resort to the unreasonable use of making police force. That was ludicrous! Its irrelevant even had the cop been sweet as punch. You forget that these people work for us and we have a duty and a right to take them to task. As an attorney I hope he tears them a new one. You are nothing but a cop communist sympathizer 75145. > last I checked neither of those things is an arrest-able offencehttp://www.gencourt.state.nh.us/rsa/html/lxii/644/644-2.htm
CHAPTER 644

644:2 Disorderly Conduct. ? A person is guilty of disorderly conduct if:
(...)
He purposely causes a breach of the peace, public inconvenience, annoyance or alarm, or recklessly creates a risk thereof, by:
(...)
(c) Disrupting any lawful assembly or meeting of persons without lawful authority.
==========
re. dozen ways to handle the situation - yes, it's about how may times he was asked to stop. Didn't work.
its an open board meeting..... 2 minutes don't mean shit....the meeting is FOR THE PARENTS to participate in their childs
education. Shutting people up is NOT freedom of speech, OR an open meeting for parents to participate.
when you want to prevent people from speaking their minds, just cut them short....stop the release of information and speech by stopping the people from talking, participating, making their point.
calling a cop over this should put HER in jail for wasting the officers time!!
He should be out catching criminals, not sitting around schools
AND PARENTS HAVE THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE WHERE THEIR CHILDREN ARE CONCERNED BE IT 2 minutes or
TWENTY MINUTES!!!!!
