As I said in the past, Ian makes my head ache. How? By making me think from and in different directions. Now, normally people hate having headaches but this is of a different kind – and trust me, it is good for you to think outside one’s normal patters. And that’s again, what Ian started … Read more

Such is the keen intellect of Democrat Rep. Sherry Frost. In one tweet she unmasks the left’s flawed argument for civilian disarmament. The fantasy about good guys with guns is hers, but they’ll disarm you anyway. And if you complain they’ll take to Twitter to feed tripe to their liberal followers who want citizen-victims dependent on a … Read more

It’s a GrokTALK! Flashback from February, 8th 2014 with (then) Free State President Carla Gericke, Ian Underwood, Mark Warden, and Kevin Bloom. We discuss why it is a waste of time to ban cell phones, the NH Republican Senate’s Great Compromise, free speech, civil asset forfeiture, the Free State Project, Liberty Forum, and more.
Jody and Ian Underwood join us to talk about HB 1637, a school choice bill introduced to make the law clearer. We talk about what happened to it in the legislature and why we now want to see it killed.
Ashley McGuire from The Catholic Association joins us to talk religious liberty, and Jody and Ian Underwood stop in to discuss school choice.
This week our guests are Susan Olsen (2A and Legislative update), Yvonne Dean-Bailey (Special election candidate for the NH House), and Jody Underwood (On school choice, vouchers, and Education in Croydon, NH). We’ve also got Uber, Down-shifting, decentralization, forest management, local control, and more…
It’s always great to have Ian Underwood joins us and this was no exception. We’ve got the Shaolin Rifleworks, the serenity of self-defense, the lefts lack of limiting principles, Senator David Pierce (again) this time encapsulating the violence of progressive government; then a great discussion about principles vs outcome.
