In December, the town gang in Newfields, NH passed an unconstitutional ordinance against "picketing" and then ticketed multiple people for a peaceful protest outside New Hampshire tyrant-king Chris Sununu's house. They also arrested YouTuber Savage Truth 603 at the same time for "disorderly conduct".
Subsequent gatherings at Sununu's during January were left alone by police, but then on Sunday the 31st peaceful protestors were once again targeted by a phalanx of state police and local cops.
When we arrived around 2pm, there were already a bunch of police cruisers and probably at least a dozen visible masked cops around Sununu's house. After some speaking and sign-holding, we began to sing COVID Carols. During the second song, several more state police cruisers arrived with a bunch of yellow-jacketed goons complete with zip ties.
They started walking towards us in a line as we continued our songs - the lyrics to which you can download at covid.freekeene.com. The armed thugs then stopped advancing and went back, perhaps aware that arresting people for singing might not look good on video.
After we finished, Nobody and I started to pack up to leave as "Footloose" from Absolute Defiance approached the police again, demanding he be given a ticket for "picketing". The police chief from Newfields indicated that he did indeed have a ticket for Footloose, but no one else. The armed man then threatened Footloose with kidnapping if he raised his voice - something Footloose is known to do as a normal state of talking. Then, they arrested him for asking a masked plainclothes state police agent to identify himself. The charge? Cops' favorite catch-all for peaceful activists they don't like: "Disorderly Conduct". Here's video of the event, which includes the arrest scene:
Footloose was taken to Newmarket PD and released on personal recognizance. His arraignment on the "disorderly" charge is Feb 25th, 8am at Exeter District Court in Brentwood, NH. Sununu continues to hide and run his gang in secret.
