Attorney Haskell responds "I do not recall" being threatened!

As far as attorneys go that is not a "no I wasn't threatened".  So then who threatened you Jennifer?  Either Ex-Chief John Pickering, or perhaps Judge Pamela Albee? I might bet on Kelly Ayotte actually..... I guess we have to wait for depositions......

Keeping an Eye on Central Planners

To the Editor,

Who could imagine being jailed for collecting rainwater on your own property? It happened in Oregon where the state has decided it owns all water, from what comes up through your well, to whatever falls from the sky! 

Some may be unaware that in NH we have 9 unelected boards called "Regional Planning Commissions". There is also a "Water Sustainability Commission", created in 2011 by executive order of the Governor. People that are appointed to these commissions have no authority to impose laws, but are funded by millions of tax dollars to "advise".  Their documents indicate the promotion of the idea that NH has some sort of water emergency, requiring draconian measures to manage it as a "collective" resource — even though they acknowledge that New Hampshire is a "water rich state".

On one commission's list of "legislative policies and priorities" (which they seem reluctant to define) are items such as "storm water management" and "storm water utility legislation".  Statements from their meetings suggest  that all water is to be treated as a  "state" resource whether it is from a public or private source, hinting at the idea that new regulations and taxes would be needed to control all usage "for the common good".

Further, there are activist groups (such as http://www.celdf.org) that are planning to target town meetings in Mass, Maine and NH this spring to promote and propose the passage of ordinances which will satisfy a demand for "collective rights" and the "rights of nature". 

If you value your private property rights, you will want to find out more about these NGOs and when they hold public meetings.

Editors Violate Readers Trust

To censor the facts that a 100% combat related disabled US Marine and his wife put their life savings to help other US Military Veterans come home mentally as well as physically just does not make since.  WE just purchased eleven acres of water front property to build a Veteran Resort-Chapel where free of charge homeless veteran’s will have a cabin of their own to live in and campsites will be set for other Veterans and their families to come and bond.  There will be a lot of open space where one can build on their religious spirits, or just learn how to be a family after coming home from war.  It is hard for those that have never been to accept a Veteran helping other Veterans for to see would mean not just to listen but hear what we are saying also.  Newspapers censoring the words of a US Military Veteran or any person take away the right only God should have the power to do.   Freedom of Speech is not the editor’s choice. 

            I volunteered many years in schools and communities teaching children trash formation art.  I have treasured this art and refused to sell it to this point.  The Veterans Resort-Chapel is worth my selling my 2’x12”x6” hand carved and crafted Concord Stage Coach with driver, passages inside and draft horses in full harness pulling it.  The piece of art will go to the highest bidder and all the money will go to help proceed on the Veteran Resort-Chapel.  I created this art to not only help children but it was my self-imposed way to learn how to come back.  PTSD and TBI two of my four service-connected disabilities took everything away that was here.  The US Military and the VA dropped me into a society that scorned and rejected us.  Citizens back here hated us for what it was the news media’s false or biased reporting that blamed the military not the politicians.  Editors to censor the facts violate the reader’s trust, as it has become the norm more and more over the years.

            The news is so biased that to stop my free speech NH and the VA have stopped my medical care for combat related disabilities.  These government wrongs, which should be front-page in every newspaper across the USA, are censored.  The NH Supreme Court violated the Constitution to protect judge Peter Favuer.  I presented a case to the NH SC and they refused to accept it.  Fauver criminally used the power of the court to help the Madbury NH selectmen use the trust of the citizens to take from local residents for personal gain.  Editors violate the reader’s trust by censoring these facts. 

            Now the editors believe harming US Military Veterans in NH is OK if they are protecting a few elite citizens over the rights of the majority.  It cannot be tolerated editors believing it is their god given right to violate the reader’s trust.  The people have a right to know that a US Military Veteran has come home and wants others to have the same chance.   Our life savings is worth it if just one has the chance to come home.

To censor this opinion letter of editor’s and government wrongs is just wrong.

NH and the Veteran Resort-Chapel

  It has started the long road to helping A 100% disabled US Military Veteran helping other US Military Veterans come home mentally as well as physically.   I cannot believe the few that give derogatory remarks to what I say in my letters.  To accept what so few say makes so many others stay away in fear.  I am nobody that volunteers every day to help other individuals.  There is nothing special about me as my act is selfish for I came back alive when so many better than I gave their lives to keep what we have here in the USA strong and free.  I am asking nothing for it is my obligation to see what so many US Military gave over the history of the USA is not and will never be in VAIN.  There is no selfish motive as my life since coming back in 74 has been to volunteer to help others every chance possible.  I do this Veteran Resort-Chapel because I came back with no memory from TBI of ever being in the USA.  I came back with three other combat related disabilities to a nation that spit one me with scorn and rejection.  We come back different even if many forges a normal life back here in the world say it had no effect on them.  Some veterans are lucky as I feel that I have been.  I struggle ever day with suicide and other mental and physical disabilities that others never see.  The Veteran Resort-Chapel is a place for all veterans to go with or without family to try to come back in there own way. I accept the comments good or bad for it is individuals freely expressing their own ideas and that is what we fought to protect and defend. 

            My wife is a great woman.  She and I are putting our life savings into this because we are lucky.  It is our way of saying that to US Military Veterans that a silent hand with no obligations for staying or using the Veteran Resort-Chapel will be there for you.  Coming home for some US Military is difficult as the roads we took and the trauma we faced along with the disabilities that we incurred changed the way we think and react.  My wife and I know to make this successful helping the US Military Veteran it will have to be a self-sustaining business.  We want to place an out side bar and grill on the property with a chapel to bring the public to help support the US Military Veteran come home and enjoy it along the way. 

            I ask those that want an idea what it will be; to go over to the “Rough” in Yorke Maine on Rt. 1 behind the Barn Restaurant.   This property (eleven acres) we bought in Lee NH is so unique that with the Chapel, bar and grill about 200 feet in the woods from the road will leave an area thousands of feet away near the water for the campsites and cabins for the Veterans to come home mentally and physically. 

            It is my belief that the people of NH have the right to know these facts.  The newspapers and news media censor my words.  NH and the VA stopped my medical care for combat related disabilities to stop my opinion of government wrongs.  To keep the public ignorant of any person trying to help US Military Veterans come home mentally and physically is the greatest crime of all time. 

            Tell the editors and news media just what and injustices they are!

Are you going to help?

As an American citizen who can vote and pays taxes and was born here in 1964. I am the person who worked all my adult life to earn a nice house and a car and family. I was the one who put my time in with my employers and saved money just like you told us to so we had something for retirement, I am the one who raised my kids and stayed with them and am getting them through high  school. I am the one who is responsible and paid my debts and was able to support my family.

     This all changed 5 years ago when my bank {Ameriquest} went under and when my payment for my mortgage was going to Mexico and not being applied to my mortgage. I fought with the bank all the way to Federal Bankruptcy Court to try and save my house, only to be taken from me because Deuatch Bank and Ameirquest broke the law and forged all the documents to not be criminally prosecuted.

     Next in May of 2010 I lost my job with Unifirst Corp. because of corporate downsizing after 4 years of service. The idea that corporate America was downsizing because they could.  Now the government in its wisdom told me to go get my college education. Now in 2.5 years I have my Associates Degree in Criminal Justice, my Paralegal Certificate and in June of 2013 I will have my Bachelor’s Degree in Criminal Justice, and all I have to show for my college degree is 30,000 more in debt and no job.

     I have spent all my saving to live and now I am like the Senior citizens who retire and have to sell everything just to go into the county nursing home to die. I am 48 years old with no direction and NO HOPE FOR GAINFULL EMPLOYMENT. The numbers that came out today 7-27-2012 show we have no chance to find any work not even part time work. I get maybe 1 or 2 days from a temp agency and I drive for a courier service on Saturdays. I have depleted all my unemployment and I am looking at cutting my loses and moving to Canada and giving up my US citizen because it is hopeless to watch the corporate greed and the government doing nothing to help me but you keep bailing out the banks. They need another 2 TRILLILON DOLLARS in their wallets. Pretty soon the banks will have more money than the US government has.

     You want me to pay my taxes and support myself but you keep doing the job you are doing in Washington, Concord, NH and pretty soon there won’t be any money to pay you.  Pretty soon we will be like Russia more people collecting government aid than people paying into support them.

     This is coming from a voter who is underemployed and frustrated with how America is going. We keep it up and you to will be looking for jobs. By the way my 150 thousand dollars I had in retirement is gone so now I get to work until the day I die. Thanks for all the hard work you are not doing. Keep up the good work and I will see you on the welfare and bread line very soon.

Unemployed broke voter who has no idea what to do:
