On June 25, Gardner Goldsmith lit the airwaves with a controversial discussion of the ethics of not only the death penalty, but armed police altogether. That, plus a look at Hippies, at outsourcing, and at the the impending housing bailout nonsense on its way from DC!

On June 24th, Gardner Goldsmith rolled out salvos of scathing criticism for the US Supreme Court and its attack on private property when the majority ruled that it was hunky-dory to seize private property along the southern US border to build the unconstitutional southern border wall.
Gard has this issue well covered in his book, and the folks on the “conservative” side ought to check out the fact that border control is a STATE issue, as written by the Founders.

On June 21, the TSA regulations regarding civilian freedom to board airplanes without “proper” ID changed. Now you MUST have ID to board a plane, whether the private companies suffering under federal fascism like it or not. The entire paradigm of federal regulation of air travel is clearly unconstitutional. gardner Goldsmith explains as only he seems to be able to do.

On June 19, 2008, word got out that Maxine Waters was intent on nationalizing the refineries for oil in the US. Nothing like freedom, huh?
Gardner Goldsmith discusses this mental poison, and talked about whether or not there might actually be more freedom for oil producers to answer consumer needs. Fascism by the US government has led to lots of disasters, and the oil problem we have today is due to federal regulation of oil and the manipulation of the Dollar by central banks.
That and a discussion of how Gitmo detainees have shown signs of torture. All from www.libertyconspiracy.com

I called WKBK’s Talkback this morning to discuss opting out of property taxes, theft, and why there are no dollar signs on property tax bills in New Hampshire.
An article in the Keene Sentinel on Sunday, 06-08, reports on the recent CopWatch activities and discussions:
See the article online.
Mr. Bantz does a pretty good job at summarizing what’s gone on to this point. It may be hard for people in this community to understand why it’s a “surprise” that the police were welcoming to the cameras. Just this week, news came out of a videographer taking news footage being taken down by an officer that just didn’t want to be recorded.
Copwatch isn’t about being aggressive. Aggression and force starts by the police when the blue lights turn on behind somebody. We just want to be there so that the officer involved knows everything he does must be able to stand up to scrutiny. There are police agencies just states and cities away from us that take questions and cameras as threats and challenges to their authority, and they don’t respond well to them. It’s great that Keene officers are open for the most part, and Copwatch is about making sure we’ll see it if they go down the road toward corruption.
Join the FMTV Crew, get show prep, and discuss the show at the new Free Minds TV Forum!
The rising price of fuel has not only driven up the cost of food, consumer goods, and regular driving, but it is inevitable that tax payers will have to pay more for the gas that goes into the array of vehicles driven by the city and the state.
While some towns in the Monadnock region have curtailed gas prices by implementing policies of no idling, this is only a drop in the bucket when it comes to the thousands and thousands of dollars spent to fuel patrolling police cars and other city and state vehicles. So what can be done about this? While some towns are looking into outfitting some of their vehicles to run on biodiesel, each vehicle will cost thousands of dollars to outfit, at the tax payers expense of course, and each vehicle will still consume costly fuel. Other towns have begun implementing more bike police, but this still does not address the main issue. Services will need to be cut, or the tax payer will continue to take the hit.
Believe it or not, there was a day when you could drive down Main Street in Keene NH without passing a police patrol car. Was it more dangerous to live in Keene before there was a police car around every corner? How about this for an idea - leave the fleet of police cars at the station until someone calls for help. Do fire trucks patrol the streets of Keene in search of fires? Of course not. Why then do we need police cars patrolling the city at all hours of the day and night looking for people rolling through stop signs?
While some towns may be implementing a few measures that will save a few dollars, when push comes to shove, services need to be cut. We can no longer afford to pay for city officials to drive everywhere at the tax payer’s expense, and personally I don’t know why we thought we needed all these patrol cars and other services in the first place. While the Keene Police Department should be looking towards ways to cut back on their patrol cars, they have recently bought some new cars, including a not so gas friendly SUV.
With the rising price of gas it has been hard for many working class people to make ends meet, and unless the city and state cut back on services, come tax season it will become even harder. I know that I have had to change my driving habits, and it’s time for the government to do so as well.

Fred Parsells had me in on this morning’s “Talkback” for the entire two hours on WKBK. In hour two, Lt. Shane Maxfield from the Keene Police Department joined the conversation in-studio. We discussed the Free State Project, Libertarianism, regulations, representation, the pledge of allegiance, government education, Copwatch, monopolies, the roads, gambling civil disobedience, and market protection services.
I’m a bit of a videophile, so when I found out YouTube now supports higher quality videos, I had to re-upload some of my recent productions. Much to my surprise, not only are the videos now in higher resolution and bandwidth, but they are also staying in the widescreen format! (If you watch in full screen mode on a widescreen monitor).
I cannot embed them in high resolution, so please click the links and then watch in full screen to see these more as the director (me) intended:
Thanks for watching!
??????Free Talk Live is now broadcasting on WKBK 104.1 FM in Keene, Saturdays from 7-10pm ET! Plus, you can still tune us in on 1290 AM. Please note, we will be preempted if baseball is on.
