Mass Marijuana Protest in Keene, NH

The idea is being tossed out to have one of these events outside of the state capitol :)
 
Of course, what people are doing at these Rallies is in no way extreme. Smoking weed is a long and proud American tradition. While it may not be as common as drinking beer, it is certainly well known and hundreds of millions of people have done it throughout American history.

As for yesterday's Rally, it was another great Rally. No cops again. I look forward to seeing all of you there today.
 
Today's Rally was kind of small. Less than 70 people. However, no cops again, which is fantastic. It did last quite a while though. At 5:10 pm there were still three girls with pro-freedom signs standing near the road. Lots of parks were honking.
 
i wish people would do something like that down here. that sounds great; just hang out listen to music in the open with a group of people smoking herb & eating food. brings back memories of my youth; now i sit inside on my laptop & burn while posting & surfing.

This is something that can be easily replicated around the country. However, I don't see it happening anywhere but New Hampshire because of the Free State Project presence. I'd love to be proven wrong though.
 
I'm sorry but politics is not the way to liberty. It hasn't worked in the past and will not work in the future. Civil disobedience has been shown to be effective. The state will wither away if people just stop obeying their unjust laws. We got to this point because not enough people have peacefully stood up and said no.

And there were people open carrying :D

qft! freedom FTW! :cool::)
 
If I were to attend one of these 420 events, I'd be open carrying but not blazing. I just can't put my career on the line for this kind of civil disobedience. To those that can, rock on!

This is FL. the rules are different here. beautiful beaches, beautiful weather, disney, etc... but remember
this is the state where you come down on vacation,
go home on probation,
come back on violation! :p

they'd have the jackboots all over us and there'd probably end up with violence & arrests in this state. wish we could get away with it. :(
 
So it rained a little during today's Rally. There were still 50 or so people, though. There were even a few protesters. One family, they also protested last Saturday. At least one of them seemed to be against all smoke :( Another one had a hugs not drugs sign, so the of the Rally goers hugged a couple of the protesters.

The audio from the NPR interviews was posted to FreeKeene.com. There were a few errors, in that the event is a Rally and around 130 people attended that day.

The Rally was great today. The weather was perfect at around 65 and sunny. Around 40 people showed up but some interesting things happened.

1. A guy was handing out Flex Your Rights DVD and flyers.
2. The was a canned food drive, the FreeKeene.com Food Drive, which was continued at Social Sundays.
3. A guy (who had been there most of the last 10 days) was selling homemade brownies again. Of course, he didn't have a permit :)
4. A bunch of people wrote post cards to an area activist that is in jail.
5. Several folks that have never been to Social Sundays before followed activists from the Central Square to Social Sunday.
 
Another great Rally. Around 35 folks showed up. Legal and illegal stuff was sold at the Rally. Also, a new Free Stater was there.
