Posted on December 11, 2017 by Steve Mac Donald

On November 28th the New Hampshire Chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union shared news on Facebook about ACLU Community Organizer Daniel Pontoh’s presentation to Farmington High School students. The subject was social justice activism, and how they can create the change they wish to see in the world and in NH with the passage of the Transgender Bill in the New Hampshire House. The post included two tags. #TransBillNH and Freedom New Hampshire.

UNH Student Admits – Out of State Students Stole Senate Election for Maggie Hassan

Posted on December 10, 2017 by Steve Mac Donald

Yesterday, Ed Mosca beat me to the punch on reporting the latest histrionics from the New Hampshire left. House Bill 372, requires anyone who votes in an election with an out of state ID to obtain an NH ID within 60 days or casting that vote. According to the screeching chorus, that’s a poll tax. But as Ed points out, it isn’t. |Keep Reading at GraniteGrok.com

Gambling and “intoxicating spirits” were two of the vices declared illegal, and yet despite the prohibition they were reportedly partaken in pretty widely, which made outlaws out of a number of otherwise upstanding law-abiding citizens. | Keep Reading at NHBR
