NHexit, the group that put New Hampshire independence legislation in front of the full state house, will be taking to the skies the weekend of May 27. But instead of carrying a weapon suite, their one-plane air wing will be towing a pro-independence banner around the state.

NHEXIT- The NH Independence Drive Is Back in Motion…
The New Hampshire secession movement is not new. As far back as 2008, when I first started blogging, I came across folks whose goal for a Free State was an independent New Hampshire.
Our Long and Mutually Beneficial Detente Ended on 3/16/2021
Attn: Juan Cruz, U.S. General Services Administration, New England: In March of 1930, Mohandas Gandhi sent a letter to the British viceroy of India, listing a series of grievances, advocating for Indian secession, and essentially promising to march across much of the continent in defiance of a hated salt tax.
Op-Ed – Lockdown Civil Disobedience Notice for Governor Sununu
Governor: Should you issue a lockdown order similar to the one in New Jersey amounting to a ban on one-man protests, I will (if able and well) exit my home, walk to a nearby intersection and “illegally” demonstrate alone.
Don’t pay your taxes – you can’t be part of Our Collective
If it was only that easy to get around these Freedom crushers! Once in a while, I am directed to a site that is definitely NOT Right-of-Center and this time the tipster sent me to Miscellany: Blue, a rather progressive site. The occasion was an interview done by Dave Ridley with Progressive NH State House Rep Raymond Gagnon who made a statement that enforces a stereotype of Progressives that Progressives themselves have given to the Right:
Ridley: Any vote for a government program is a vote for violence against your neighbor because you’re going to force them to pay for it through threat of violence.
Gagnon: Forcing people to pay for things is not aggression…. [But] if you continually choose to not pay your taxes, year after year after year, there will be a consequence to that action. Yes, that’s true.
Ridley: They will drag you out of your house. They will kill you if you fight back.
Gagnon: That’s because you’ve chosen not to pay your taxes…. You’ve chosen not to be part of the team, the collective.
Now, Dave is more the Libertarian and certainly makes sure that the Progressive he is interviewing know that his main stance is that Government IS Force. I agree in principle but not in the intensity that Dave employs; it is not how I would put it. However, Dave IS right in that at the end of the day, aggression will be used if payment to the Government is not made – no one can deny that either either one’s property is taken or one’s Liberty is taken (er, jail).
However, my eyes did a double take – Gagnon falls right into the moral pit.
