Let me set the stage: Public schools are Government schools – a near-monopoly in the K-12 education space and one can see, by the actions of Selfish Socialist (and bigot) Andru Volinsky, Government and its supporters on the Left (like teachers unions) aren’t about to give that up without a fight.

NH Senators Shaheen and Hassan Vote to Protect “Warrantless” Online Surveillance
Democrats talk a lot about the right to privacy. New Hampshire’s Democrat Senators, Jeanne Shaheen, and Maggie Hassan have, though that is code for “abortions.” When it comes to your actual privacy, they’d rather government can spy on you (and not just the Feds.)
Let FISA Rest In Peace
The FISA courts were made to track down bad guys in the wake of 9/11. They were then and they are now, good intentions run amuck. How have they been used in the last few years? As expected, not all that well.

Manchester Man Arrested for 4th Time for Peeping on Women in Public Restrooms
Travis Demers has been busy. Since July 27th, he has been detained or arrested on four separate occasions. What for, you ask. Walking into a women’s public restroom (no one can stop him) and recording women who were unaware of his presence.

I’ve been searching for information on the mental health data collected and shared on students in the Laconia School District. Accessing this information has become challenging, given the responses by the current Superintendent in the district, Brendan Minnihan.

Manchester Democrat(s) Using a Student for a Political Smear is the Scandal
In the wake of David Scannell’s admission that he violated a student’s privacy (and probably several laws), we should consider how we arrived at this act of lawlessness. It began when someone leaked an email Mr. Girard’s sent to a voter/constituent. From all the statements and reporting I can find, Rich Girard only sent the email … Read more
Manchester Democrat David Scannell Violates Student Privacy (and the law?) for Political Hit
Manchester Democrat David Scannell has admitted to leaking a letter from a lawyer to the Manchester Board of School Committee about a student. Scannell is claiming the public had a right to know.

An overwhelming majority of New Hampshire voters supported question 2, an amendment to the State Constitution enshrining privacy rights. “An individual’s right to live free from governmental intrusion in private or personal information is natural, essential, and inherent.” Another proposed constitutional amendment that did not survive legisaltive scrutiny, thanks to an all-out blitz by activists and the … Read more
