So who in the Windham Police Department Said “We don’t have time for that”

September 17, 2019September 16, 2019 Skip

It’s a phrase right out of a “The things Parents tell their kids” show, but this was no show. A drug deal was going on right before their eyes on a smartphone. In a police station. Windham’s, to be precise. As in “Hey, y’all, I got it – you want it?”

September 13, 2019September 13, 2019 Skip

Communities often wish to sweep bad things under the rug. The Elites want to have others outside of their town or city to believe that things are all sunshine and candy bars. All the kids are above normal, the schools are great, crime is all but non-existent, taxes are low, their economy is booming – life is grand.

Windham – What was the response to this?

September 13, 2019September 13, 2019 Skip

“We don’t have time for that”. The above image is a screenshot by a second camera of a cellphone receiving notification by what appears to be a drug dealer in Windham, NH where the “clientele” are students in the Windham School District (with others, presumably). Read this as: Hey, taking orders – get them in … Read more

NH Rep Tim Soucy: small biz merely revenue sources

September 12, 2019September 12, 2019 Skip

“I rob banks because that’s where the money is,” – Willie Sutton. Apparently that’s what NH State Rep Tim Soucy (D-Concord) believes except that small businesses ARE banks to him.

So, Democrats Silenced Josh Moore and his Patriot Initiative Site?

September 11, 2019September 10, 2019 Skip

With regard to GraniteGrok and various Facebook pages, and groups the Democrats have made it clear. Say things we don’t like and we will try to shout or shut you down. And they’d prefer the latter. Speak against their agenda and they will destroy you if they can.

Right – Democrats promising the future but can’t deliver in the present, can they?

Gilford School Board: when a Transgender policy has violations but no penalties? Use an RSA 91:A Demand

September 10, 2019 Skip

The entire policy is here. Yes, this is going to be a thing for a while – yet another attempt of mandating another left leaning policy in which we Normals are supposed to tolerate, accept, affirm, and believe in what is a mental disorder (last I knew, sexual dysphoria is still in the book as … Read more

So, Beto O’Rourke is expecting all AR-15 owners will simply give their guns to him?

Mandatory paid confiscation (that’s the “buy back” – like I really bought it from you in the first place?)??? Full voluntary compliance??? Is he that clueless that he isn’t aware of how “compliance” has been going in States like NY, CT, et al on these mandatory bans? Beto is both delusional and desperate at this … Read more

Can the Gilford School Board (SAU73) get any more tone deaf over their new Transgender policy?

September 9, 2019September 9, 2019 Skip

So, one of the complaints that was issued by a parent at the last School Board Meeting was that this new transgender policy was just SPRUNG on parents; noticed during the last week of August when many could have been out of town and little time to get the word out.
