Look at the great picture from this months cleanup.

Well, let's see who was out there "defaming" the FSP through an adopt-a-highway cleanup:
A candidate for Congress from NH.
A freedom-loving activist who moved across the country, put her livelihood and freedom on the line, was arrested, spent a couple of weeks in jail, and made national news.
Her husband, who was in the news along with her.
A large, shambling, furtive, giggling UFO who made the news (and jail) by standing up for the freedom to travel without government permission.
His wife, who was the "victim" of the Outlaw Manicurist.
A couple I don't recognize, whom I'm sure are perfectly nice people.
And, one crotchety old curmudgeon who suffers the younger generations (and their blasting music) to promote the Free State at every opportunity. And who's been known to drive around with a nine foot joint.

The FSP's goal is to get people to NH to engage in liberty-loving activities however they choose. But the official FSP response to the actions above? "We have no comment. We take no position. They do not speak for the FSP."
Gee, what's wrong with, "While the FSP doesn't endorse any particular cause or action, we cheer freedom-loving activists who choose to get involved and make a difference in their communities."
Would that be so horrible? Would it contaminate the purity of the FSP's official non-involvement?
As for keeping participants informed, I've never received a single email or snail-mail from the organization. Not that I've wanted any, because I'm an active forum participant, checking in daily. Heck, I've never even gotten the FSP vinyl decal I ordered and paid for over two months ago!
I understand what it's like to be an officer in an all-volunteer organization of die-hard individualists (trust me!). Members scream and beg for information. Why is it so difficult to provide?
I used to check the FSP forums every couple of hours; now it's every couple of days. The crap:signal ratio just got unbearable. While the NHunderground forums might seem clicquish, it's a clicque with open membership. C'mon in, the water's fine (and in Keene, it's deep!)
