The Modern Traveler’s Quest for Freedom If there’s one thing Americans value — whether at home or halfway around the world — it’s freedom. Freedom to move, to explore, to stay connected on our own terms. That mindset doesn’t stop when you board a plane. But travel, especially international travel, still comes with its share ...

OROTOLANO: How the Nashua Courthouse Broke My Faith in Justice

Granite Grok - Wed, 2025-10-22 14:00 +0000

Judges are supposed to be fair and impartial. In New Hampshire, they should embody independence, not inheritance. My experience in Hillsborough County South has shown otherwise. The lines between mentorship and favoritism have blurred so deeply that I have lost confidence in the system. When Judge Smith took the bench in Nashua in 2024, she ... Read more

Granite Grok - Wed, 2025-10-22 02:00 +0000

Ticks are one of the approved barometers of the Climate cult. A collection of markers by which people who hate property rights and comfort (Democrats) leverage fear and misinformation to separate you from both. For the record, so is everything else. A barometer, I mean. There is no “thing” that doesn’t buttress the dogma of ... Read more

OPINION: What Concessions Does Kelly Ayotte Want Republicans To Make To Reopen The Government?

Granite Grok - Tue, 2025-10-21 21:00 +0000

New Hampshire Governor Kelly Ayotte has repeatedly placed equal blame on both parties for the federal government shutdown. Examples: Apparently, Ayotte believes that Democrats are NOT to blame for refusing to pass the same type of “clean” continuing resolution (maintaining current spending) that was passed thirteen times under Biden. Apparently, she believes that Republicans should ... Read more

Regarding Proglodyte tantrums over federal agents enforcing federal law. If we follow the modern left-wing definition of ‘militia,’ which ought to apply to left-wing domains in particular, they think it means the National Guard. They can’t shut up about it.

With an important debate just around the corner, New York mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani decided that it was time to breach the lions’ den and appear on FOX News. It was a clever move.

Let’s Enforce a Stupid New Hampshire Law

Free Keene - Tue, 2025-10-21 02:47 +0000

Face it… it’s literally impossible to know every single federal and state law that you’re responsible for adhering to 24/7.

It’s physically and mentally impossible, but that’s what you’re expected to do.

My favorite law that Governor Kelly Ayotte won’t budge on that I support the public simply giving the middle finger to the State is 318-B:2, the so called “Controlled Drug Act,” that prohibits the use of Marijuana.  It pleases me every time I visit my local Marijuana store here in Massachusetts to see so many New Hampshire license plates…  and furthermore, the government elites and connecteds don’t comply with these laws even in jurisdictions where certain drugs are illegal, so why should you have to?

Use all the Marijuana you want, safely, but please don’t drive while doing it.  As a former Drug Recognition Expert who had to do death notifications after investigating a fatal car accident involving the use of Marijuana, I totally have the backs of law enforcement in attacking this particular issue.

In that light, speaking of lights, New Hampshire law enforcement has long disregarded RSA 265:112…  a law requiring they keep parking lights on while on the side of the road or in the median of the highway.

That’s right: at night it is required for law enforcement to keep their parking lights on so long as they are anywhere on the “way.”  That’s roads, shoulders, medians…  they never do this, but they’re going to now.

I must confess, I think this law is stupid as applied to the police, and I don’t blame law enforcement for not knowing about it or not wanting to follow it…  but fair is fair, and there is no exception for law enforcement.  It interestingly is the same level of offense as possessing a small amount of Marijuana in New Hampshire.

If it’s that serious, it needs be enforced. <grin>

If the Governor insists on picking on my friends (and if you’re a Marijuana user who just wants to be left alone and enjoy one of God’s many creations after a long days work, consider yourself my friend) that possess a drug safer than what she slings on the northbound or southbound side of the interstate, then I’m going to occasionally pick on her (many well meaning) enforcement agents who perpetuate her stupidity on the War on Drugs.

Lights on, New Hampshire law enforcement.

UPDATE: My letter to the New Hampshire Attorney General regarding this egregious law violation.
