Cantwell kicked out of Free State Project for ‘aggressive’ speech

Every group has drama. It’s gonna happen.

For the past several days, there has been tension brewing in New Hampshire (and across the “liberty movement”) for the Free State Project board’s decision to excommunicate activist Chris Cantwell. The board has removed him from the “list of participants” and he is not welcome at any future FSP-sponsored events, including PorcFest.



The controversy stems from an op-ed piece Cantwell wrote concerning the acquisition of a Bearcat assault vehicle by the Concord, NH police to combat, among other groups, Free Staters.

In part, Cantwell wrote:

They see this injustice, they want it to stop, and so they are coming together to make a stand against it. The only problem is, now that they have come together, they have absolutely no idea what to do, because their vision of a peaceful evolution to a voluntary society is being shattered on an almost daily basis by government violence. That violence is all too sure to escalate, as the government agents of New Hampshire and elsewhere acquire more advanced and sophisticated technology to oppress these peaceful activists, and the population in general.

So what to do? It’s a terribly unpopular thing to say, but the answer, at some point, is to kill government agents. The government agents know that, and that’s why they want a tank.
