Marijuana Civil Disobedience

Hundreds of people have participated and have so far been free from arrest by police and gained much press attention. To follow this story, visit FreeKeene.com.

Free State Project Covered in the Boston Phoenix

The Boston Phoenix has published a lengthy article about the Free State Project. While good on the whole, some important corrections/clarifications are that the FSP is not a Libertarian (Party) organization, we do not intend to "colonize" New Hampshire, movers can live anywhere in the state and there are several popular areas, not just Keene, and four movers have been elected to the NH State House, not just one.

Mark Edge: Activism in the Free State

FSP Participant and mover Mark Edge, co-host of the syndicated radio show Free Talk Live discusses with the The Tenth Amendment Center his take on the Free State Project in New Hampshire as decentralization in practice, moving towards smaller government on a state level, spreading liberty around the country by example, the insanity of violent response to activists by the federal government, the people of New Hampshire as having a streak of individualism and resistance to government encroachments, the state legislature in New Hampshire, liberty-loving lobbyists, the New Hampshire Liberty Alliance, Free Talk Live’s growing syndication, and more.
