adding this to my “call talk radio about” list…thank you again Mike for taking this risk of involvement with the proposal, though of course we do need to lay out the Independence Case to liberal folks. No more Trumps ruling over NH from DC. Was there something else they needed to know?
Sent to Granite Grok a summary and a link to this thread.
LOL what they’re really saying is more like “The side we’re supporting runs torture chambers, but the other side has a guy that said something we don’t like.”
exactly … the Reasonable Federalism twitter account is really worried about a R takeover in the midterms … and many people probably fear a return of The Donald
so peaceful separation seems like a good plan
We are so lucky to have Mike Sylvia on the side of Liberty.
Thank you Mike for standing up in the face of Tyranny.
any word on whether the HRA did something to him?
The leftists believe free staters have taken over the GOP and that republicans will join the dems against freedom now:
My support for independence is unrelated to my position with the House Republican Alliance. Those who think in collective terms are unable to separate the two. I am also NOT filing legislation as the chairman of the Belknap County Delegation. The Borg do not understand the actions of individuals.
I am still one of the three chairs of the HRA.
posted mike’s 8/30 statement on NE shooters and mastadon
the NH indpendence thread on NH shooters is pretty active
NE Shooters is a closed site. Care to characterize the convo?

No, need to log in.
“News” article that focuses only on comments regarding immigrants, and barely on the independence aspect:
Sorry for the slow response to your request Mike
partial copy paste of my post and what people said afterward. there was not really much direct reaction related to you.
" A left-leaning blog is attacking Rep. Mike Sylvia related to the proposed Independence Amendment. He’s taking the lead on this in the NH House. Another rep has claimed that Sylvia was demoted or something, from the House Republican Alliance.
On the libertarian shire society forum there were more details:

Mike Sylvia is Under Fire Politically - Already!

On 8/30, a few days later, Sylvia posted that he was not aware of such a demontion, saying:
“My support for independence is unrelated to my position with the House Republican Alliance. Those who think in collective terms are unable to separate the two. I am also NOT filing legislation as the chairman of the Belknap County Delegation. The Borg do not understand the actions of individuals.

NH independence update:
I counted 11 people on today’s conference call, which is its largest size to date… it should get posted later. …however only 2 reps this time instead of 3.
Also I’ve set up a thread to which I am inviting activists from U.S. independence movements… It’s an attempt at establishing some sort of public spot for comms among them.
U.S. independence movements - communication thread
Apparently the Baltic republics were able to enhance their independence drives by close coordination. Maybe such movements in U.S. states should do the same. Until we have a better place to do it… I’m dedicating this thread to the purpose. Next I will invite some folks from other…
www.ronpaulforums.com
Apparently close coordination among the Baltic republics was a key factor in their successful independence drives.
If you have a better idea then my head’s covered in ears! But I don’t think it should be shire forums because that is already a potential central point of failure.

Imagine another Trump as president and a strong Republican majority in both houses and the current 6-3 SC slant. . .
And NJ decides to secede.
How many people here are going to call them a bunch of stupid whiny b-words???
Nuffsaid.
EDIT - Didn’t notice this was a DadaO’Reilly thread. LOL

Don’t soft-pedal your scenario.
Pick a dynamic rebel leader; one who’s anti-gun. "
View: NH Independence Amendment...weekly conference call #4 Aug 31 2021
Later people will be complaining that the NH independence movement has too many open borders people like me
Sent this LTE to the Laconia paper and a slightly different version to the Concord paper…as a response to their article about Mike Sylvia’s comments. Can you do something similar?
NH independence vs. Fed rule - We’re not competing with perfect here!
Dear folks at the Sun:
Some thoughts regarding your article about Belmont Rep. Mike Sylvia’s attempt to bring forward the NH Independence Amendment. This is legislation which, if passed, would let New Hampshire voters decide whether they want to continue being governed by Washington. The latter appears to have proven effective only at mistreating immigrants in Texas and running torture chambers in Afghanistan.
You pointed out Sylvia’s comments, in which he paraphrased - then condemned - anti-immigrant sentiment. These comments have “triggered” an attempt by Federal sympathizers to paint Sylvia’s meaning as opposite of what it was. But presumably we are all in agreement that harsh deeds are a much nastier thing than harsh words. As the loudest open-borders, Spanish-speaking voice in New Hampshire’s Independence faction, I’m more enraged over Fed mistreatment of my sisters and brothers from Mexico…than over any “comment” a person could ever make. We’re not competing with perfect here, not even with D-minus. Washington dumps kids into concentration camps for being born the wrong spot and orders you to underwrite the “service.” But folks are more upset about a “comment” by 100-dollar-a-year citizen legislator?
Maybe what the pro-Fed faction fears is not Mike Sylvia’s open-handed brainstorming…but the possibility that NH might someday be independent of DC, of the Feds’ border fascism and their literal million-page list of Forbidden Acts. The chance that eventually…we might be able to exclusively govern our own affairs and welcome our foreign siblings in a dramatically more humane, inexpensive manner than Washington does.

Great letter, Dave!
Thanks; I read the letter aloud on Free Talk Live tonight except the last paragraph
