Free State Project Calls for Help Against Police Militarization
August 7th, 2013The Free State Project has issued a call for help, as the Concord, NH police department recently ordered a military-style tank, called a Ballistic Engineered Armored Response Counter Attack vehicle, to use against Free Staters and members of the Occupy movement, who were wrongly characterized in the purchase order as domestic terrorists. You can check out the Free State Project’s statement about the problem at this link.
The Free State Project also issued an urgent email stating, “We are hitting back hard. A hearing in Concord is scheduled for August 12, 2013. This means we don’t have much time. Please donate immediately to support our efforts to protest being maligned as a ‘domestic terrorist threat.’ Donations will be used for signage, transportation, publicity, potential legal fees, etc.
Any donations received and not used directly for Monday’s event will go to the FSP general fund for future outreach–things like advertising on The Scott Horton show, or a booth at upcoming events like the 2nd annual Police Accountability Summit in Texas.
We hope to raise between $5,000-$10,000 by Monday, August 12, and will provide daily updates via and our website as to our progress.”
