A few parts of the article. Click on the link ^ to read the whole thing.
We have just learned that Concord School Board will hold a meeting on Wednesday night to discuss an endorsement of the BearCat. Apparently, Concord’s Chief of Police, and author of the grant application, is trying to rally support for the BearCat by arguing it could be used in school crisis situations.
Only residents of Concord will be able to testify at the school board meeting, but you can expect activists rallying outside with signs that read,
Textbooks Not Tanks
Let [Police Chief] Duval Hold a Bake Sale
It’s not “For the Children”
In the meantime, we’re contacting the members of the Concord School Board and ask that they oppose the BearCAT. If activists are City taxpayers or past, present, or future parents of a child in the school district they are sure to mention that specifically. We are also continuing to contact the City Councilors and write letters to the editor. Here is an excerpt of one letter to the school board:We have also organized a petition drive for this weekend with donated prizes for the people with the most signatures: two tickets to the Free State Project’s annual Liberty Forum (over $200 value), OUNCES of silver, bitcoin, books, etc. We will provide the materials and help organize the teams. Volunteers just need to show up. This Saturday, August 24, breakfast meeting to start at 8am at Tandy’s Top Shelf (1 Eagle Square, Concord, NH) and we will be hitting the streets at 8:30am, visiting places like the Farmers Market, Post Offices, Libraries, and even going door-to-door.
The final City Council vote is scheduled for September 9.
