I have no issues with free speech, and no I am not the thought police. However when something is dragged up form 2008 to do nothing but incite people here whats the point?
If he researched the article he would have seen not only how old it is, but the judge had reasons for reacting in the manner he did.
What torques me off are Freeman cherry picking the Constitution while making an argument that it must be followed. Whats the point in calling for that when they dont even bother to follow it themselves?

Under American jurisprudence, acts of contempt are divided into two types.
1.Direct contempt is that which occurs in the presence of the presiding judge (in facie curiae) and may be dealt with summarily: the judge notifies the offending party that he or she has acted in a manner which disrupts the tribunal and prejudices the administration of justice. After giving the person the opportunity to respond, the judge may impose the sanction immediately.
2.Indirect contempt occurs outside the immediate presence of the court and consists of disobedience of a court's prior order. Generally a party will be accused of indirect contempt by the party for whose benefit the order was entered. A person cited for indirect contempt is entitled to notice of the charge and an opportunity for hearing of the evidence of contempt and to present evidence in rebuttal.

You seem to have some issue with me so let it all out. No the arrest on the video happened this month, yes that letter was sent to Burke and has nothing to do with ademo being arrested. Talk about cherry picking stuff. I don't believe in the constitution as anything other then a very expensive piece of toilet paper. Since Ademo is a producer and frequent co-host on a national syndicated radio show he is actually a member of the press.

Part two. The idiot with the camera was stalking and following too close and invading his personal space. Period. When someone takes a job that makes them a known target has their personal space invaded, and we can clearly see there are no metal detectors or security in the building other than the court... That judge has every right to feel threatened and I hope he had a taurus judge strapped on his hip. He is working under crap security to begin with.
These whiny baby granola crunchers need to take a hike.

Messing with a judge and asking him why he arrested someone in his courtroom for wearing a hat? You know this stuff happens all the time right?
Now,there was no threatening going on, just a pissed off judge...But really, all I can think to say is.....Was it worth it to piss off a judge over something that happens all over the place?
Again, this judge does not follow the rules of the courts, it is legal to film in a courtroom in the state of NH yet he has banned cameras from the entire property, even the parking lot. Why would you expect anyone to listen to man makes his own laws for no rhyme or reason. Ah, but he does have a reason, he's been caught disregarding the laws he has SWORN to uphold, that is a big difference between the government and the people, the people have taken no such oath, in fact, its clear that this oath to the constitution is meaningless.

I tell people to stand up and try to get laws changed they have issues with. However, a judge is not part of the legislative branch which means he does not say whats illegal, nor do they set the fine and or penalty (im referring to the inception of a law, why its criminal, what happens if someone violates it etc).
This is the other part where you guys confuse me. You guys speak out against judges who legislate from the bench. In this situation, that position seems to be fluid because it supports your argument. Out of curiosity, which is it?
The purpose of dressing nicely and removing a hat is to show some type of respect to the court itself.
Here is the breakdown -
Opinions and positions on a certain law are fine and I encourage them. As with everything though there is a time and place. As far as the marriage goes, you are missing a key argument, which is the 14th amendment - Full Faith and Credit.
Again the people have sworn no oath to obey any law.
Im not bitter at all man, however I am irritated by not only the hypocrisy exhibted by groups like this, but also their picking and choosing what they will and will not follow. Ironic since this is what they accuse the Government, Police and Judges of doing.
No, its because they break the oath that they have sworn to uphold. plain and simple.
Taking action against the judge also falls into that double standard you guys show. You guys are are upset with this judge because he made a ruling you guys dont like. You guys then dismiss the opposite side of the fence where people are ok with it.
Are those people wrong?
Because they have a differing viewpoint as yours does that make them part of the problem you guys perceive?
If you guys feel that strongly about it, then why not head somewhere else other than the United States. Or would it be more acceptable for everyone to leave the US who dont agree with you and this group? Why should people support and show respect for your beliefs while at the same time you guys ignore / dismiss everyon elses beliefs? Why should we be forced to abide by your laws, while you guys ignore ours?
Why do "we" pull over? its simple, if we don't we will be murdered.
What you guys are doing would be equivelant of French nationals all of a sudden coming out of the woodwork in the US and demanding a change to any and all laws they dont like or agree with.
My response would be to either find your own island and form your own country become legal and try to effect change by using the system. What do you think would be the outcome if an officer stops a person for breaking the law, say speeding, and the driver completely and totally refuses to provide any information to the officer?
Now, if you guys get your way and you are in charge, what would you guys do if a person refuses to recognize your authority for the traffic stop?
If you dont recognize the police as a lawful authority, then why do you guys pull over when one hits his lights and sirens behind you? If he has no legal authority to begin with, then why acknowledge it by pulling over?
The protesters are invoking the NH Constitution not the federal one. And I invoke no such piece of garbage as i know it means absolutly nothing to those who claim to honor it.
Also, circuit judges are not Federal, they are state. You guys continually invoke the US Constitution while completely ignoring the States and their rights under their own constitutions.
Why can you guys not be consistent in your mission and actions? Again, going back to Cherry Picking....

Yes, they wear hats in his court because they do not respect him. Another big difference between those in the government and the activists is that the activists are not in anyway using violence to protest.
Originally posted by NuroSlam
The time and the place is not dependent on the permission of anyone other then those who wish to protest. Its absurd to think that you need to get permission to protest from those you wish to protest. Unless you would like me to think that you would have shot the protesters in Boston having a tea party.

Care to pull put the law where it states a persron can record inside a courtroom. Again this is what I am talking about, you guys only see what you want to see. You ignore the fact that a judge, or administrative judge (supervisor so to speak) can prescribe what is and is not allowed in the courtroom.
RULES OF THE SUPERIOR COURT OF THE STATE OF NEW HAMPSHIRE
PHOTOGRAPHING, RECORDING AND BROADCASTING
78. (a) The presiding judge should permit the media to photograph, record and broadcast all courtroom proceedings that are open to the public. The presiding judge may limit electronic media coverage if there is a substantial likelihood of harm to any person or other harmful consequence. Except as specifically provided in this rule, or by order of the presiding judge, no person shall within the courtroom take any photograph, make any recording, or make any broadcast by radio, television or other means in the course of any proceeding.
Please explain to me which violent protest im referring to
A protest that revolves around violence is not a protest - Its a riot. Please learn the difference.
Respect is a 2 way street in this case. Also, again you guys miss the point. You dont have to respect the judge, however you should show some respect for the position / court.
Please stop referring to me with "you guys" and "your group" I am a member of no group or orginization, the only one I have ever been a member of is the United States Army. Period.
Also, its not protesting when its done inside a court thats in session - That is interfering with the administration of justice and is also interfering with the rights of the people who are also going before the judge.
Again, your groups mindset is screw anyone who doesnt see your view points. Apparently you guys did read animal farm. Everyone is equal, but Sovereign citizens / Freeman are more equal than others.
Again just because you and some others dont like it, doesnt make it illegal, nor does it give you the right to refuse to follow directions in that setting. If you ugys would learn the law and the constitution you would already see case law by SCOTUS addressing the areas you say are illegal.
If you think there is a difference, got walk onto a military base and try to protest there.
What you and the others are confusing, as well as ignoring, is your rights come to a schreeching halt when they infringe on the rights of others. Namely, your right to protest is invalid in a court room because its infringing on the rights of the people to a quick and speedy trial.
Or does the constituion only apply to sovereign citizens / Freeman?

No, they are upholding the oath they took. What it boils down to is you and other groups who dont like the way things are, so you go off on this flight of fancy and made ridiculous claims that are not supported by law, but merely your opinion. I am going to point out that you completely ignored the question about citizens who dont share your view point. I guess they are bad americans for disagreeing with you guys?

Here's a very relevant and recent video of how cameras catch corruption of judges too:
Now check out the response of the court:
1. No cameras or audio equipment may be used at any time in the court's lobby or anywhere in the public area of the court's leased premises;
So you catch a corrupt judge in the act on video and the response is not to punish the judge but to blanket ban all photo / video in the area? Btw. That order doesn't have exemption for their own security cameras so better go in there and do an citizens arrest on the building manager!

Also the same guys, same courthouse and another illegal detention of a photographer. He asks to see the law and their response is to detain him.

This "Group" has at no time committed any act of violence. There was no threat in that letter, that letter was informing him that people will continue to move there and protest, it was a statement of fact, people are moving there almost daily as part of the free state project. How you come to the conclusion that protesting is threatening you really must explain. I know that as a LEO you would prefer them to be violent so that you can justify their arrest, kidnapping and murder.

There are some facts missing. When you recevie letters that do threaten your life it changes the story and viewpoint. This judge had recevied letters essentially telling him to quit presiding over "consenual" cases. In the letter, the author told the judge that he cannot control the members in his group and is not responsible for their actions.
This group has a history with this particular judge.
Anyone else find it humerous this group demands the judge follow the law, yet its perfectly acceptable for this group to ignore the law?
Mr. Burke,
Earlier today, I had intended to tell you of my appreciation for some of the decisions you have made recently. I will do so now, as I have the opportunity. I’d like to thank you for your recent “not guilty” decision in Nick Ryder’s “speeding” case, your sensible decision to allow multiple recording devices into your “court”, allowing camera panning, and the reasonable ways you handled Russell Kanning and David Krouse’s “driving without registration” cases. Also, a while back I was pleased with how you handled David Manning’s “illegal U-turn” situation. You appear to be a reasonable man and I hope this letter finds you and approachable mood.
Before I continue, I’d like to apologize for the rather unusual situation you have been put in. I do not know you, but I would like to imagine that in your private life you are very nice man who is appreciated by your many friends and family. The situation I refer to is one you’re probably already aware of. I imagine you’ve been advised on the fact that liberty activists have been moving to town here in Keene. You’ve no doubt noticed us in your courtroom as most of us remain seated when you enter. I hope you understand, we are just doing our jobs. One of our jobs is to stand up, or in this case sit, in support of others who are being targeted for “consensual crimes”. Unfortunately, we do not have enough numbers to operate regular sittings in your “court”, otherwise you would see us outside the occasion when your “business associates” decide to do their “business” with one of our friends or associates.
Please stop hearing cases that do not involve a victim. If you would do this, you would likely never see another liberty activist in your courtroom again. Plus, you’d be saving a lot of people a significant amount of money and time. I understand that part of your job is probably to raise revenue for the “City of Keene”. However, I would rather your job be arbitrating disputes involving allegedly damaged parties, and awarding restitution, or in extreme cases, incarcerating. If that described the job you were doing, people would likely be singing your praises rather than protesting.
If you choose continue to hear cases involving “consensual crimes”, prepare yourself for more activists paying more attention to the job you do. The liberty movement in New Hampshire is decentralized. I cannot control nor predict the actions of those activists who choose to focus their efforts in Keene. You can expect all kinds of peaceful outreach and protest. We are changing hearts and minds. Perhaps yours will be included. Many of us have a vision for a 100% consensual society. I invite you to learn more about how we can get from here to there.
