I should never get into political discussions with co-workers, but…We started by discussing the communicability of the COVID-19 virus and whether masks were effective (he believes everyone should wear one – I believe that only those who are sick should wear a mask at all).

Is Someone in Nashua Next? – “Woman Tasered For Not Wearing A Mask At An Outdoor Middle-School Football Game”
The policies of Maskholes in elected government are getting way out of hand. Stories are emerging all over regarding the tyranny of public health Maskstapo arresting people outdoors for not wearing a mask. This one goes one step further. A Woman gets tasered so that she can be arrested.
Mask Math is Hard – It’s Harder for Sheep
Facebook loves us when we talk about this. Masking. Wearing a medical face mask. We think you should be free to choose what to believe and if and when to wear a mask in public. Like a seatbelt. That also presumes the right not to wear one. But as we all know, rights are frequently infringed.
In the Name of Public Health NH Will Search Private Property Without a Warrant
Chris Sununu’s very real Emergency Order 65 (not to be confused with Order 66 – Kill all the Jedi) fulfills the promise of allowing public health to trump all else. EO 65 permits a search of (public or) private property without a warrant.
July 1st Vermont Law Makes New Hampshire Unique in all of New England (Again!)
Reusable Grocery bags have a larger carbon footprint than thin-film plastic bags, but Greens demand we switch. They also spread deadly diseases and bacteria from food (outside the current hysteria I’ve dubbed virus-socialism). All of which Vermont has decided to ignore.
Democrat Jan Schmidt is a Bigger Threat to You Than this Virus (And she’s not Alone)
I’m confident when I say, there must be an email that went out to Democrats quoting the State Constitution. Years ago. Use “this” to justify your creeping tyranny. Or, in the case of Alderman (and NH House Rep) Jan Schmidt, it may be the only part of the document she needs to know.
New Zealand No Longer Requires a Warrant to Enter Any Building or Vehicle ‘cuz Public Safety
A little over a year ago, a pro-China eco-fascist went on a killing spree in New Zealand. His manifesto states clearly that one of his goals is to advance anti-gun laws. It worked. The other lunatics, the ones in government, immediately began banning guns, and what did we say back then?
New Hampshire’s Coronovirus Road to Hell is Paved with Sununu’s “Good Intentions”
The road to Hell is Paved with Good Intentions was never truer than it is today. We are trying to control a virus at the expense of everything else. Let’s look at what we are doing to folks. First and foremost we have instilled FEAR into the population.
Save Our Restaurants
I was reading how California has lifted restrictions on food trucks selling food at rest areas. That is common sense. And that got me thinking that we could be doing some common sense things to help our food establishments here in New Hampshire during the COVID-19 shutdowns.
Court Upholds New Hampshire Ban on Gatherings of 50 People or More
Earlier in the week, the Governor’s Office announced a ban on gathering in groups of 50 or more people. This limitation was immediately challenged in court, and a judge has ruled in favor of the state.
40,000 American’s Lost Their Lives to This in August – Democrats Focus on 53 Killed by Guns
Environmentalists complain about the American diet. Left-Wing politicians pander to their narratives. But they also both see population control as necessary for “saving the world.” Is that why they are ignoring the 40,000 deaths last month linked to obesity?
Again, N.H. House says No to abortion statistics
Cross-posted from Leaven for the Loaf: Naysayers gonna Nay. Given an opportunity to include abortion statistics in a bill regarding collection of health care data, the New Hampshire House ran in the other direction this week. Left unaddressed was the question of why so many representatives who think abortion is health care don’t want to … Read more
Heartless Maggie Hassan Has No Moral Authority on Health Care
The Democrat junior Senator from New Hampshire, Sen. Jeanne Shaheen’s mini-me, is parroting the party talking points on health care as instructed.
Abhor-Shun Clinic to Close
An abhor-shun (Abortion) clinic in Virigina Beach will be closing after 40 years of performing the Democrat parties master-race “eugenics as rights” policies. The Virginian-Pilot reports that the abortion clinic’s closure comes about a week after Virginia’s Board of health voted to implement a law requiring abortion facilities “to meet strict, hospital-style building codes.” It … Read more
The NH Tobacco Tax Increase is Not About Youth Smoking or Public Health…it is a Transfer of Wealth
The Tobacco tax war is underway again, this time in the New Hampshire State Senate, as both sides debate the House passed 0.20 cent per pack tax hike before the Senate Ways and Means Committee. Supporters of the tax point to potential health benefits and a reduction in youth smoking. The Union Leader Article I draw this from is actually titled “Cigarette Tax Increase Seen as Deterrent to Youth Smoking,” but we already know that to be false.
According to the American Lung Associations own publications there has been absolutely no change in the middle-school smoking rate in New Hampshire since at least 2006, despite Democrats more than doubling the cigarette tax, taking it from 0.80/pack to 1.78/pack (plus a 65% wholesale price increase passed by Democrats in 2010).
The Lung Association’s reports for New Hampshire High School age smokers document the rate in 2006 at 20.5% (rising and falling) to settle in at 20.8% for 2010.
We also know that New Hampshire is consistently one of the healthiest states in the nation.
