People camp in tents in New Hampshire throughout the winter.

Things should turn around next week with colder temperatures settling in. Garbage today but they might get some snow Friday, plus some snow making so could be ok.

How many convicted criminals have you allowed to live in your house for free? You can be part of the solution.

Al gore said we’d be under water years ago… this thing is a bubble waiting to pop any second now. Too bad, blueberries are my favorite.

But that still doesn't explain why taxpayers should pay cops to be trained (edit: and equipped) to treat them as militant enemy combatants.

Possibly. But it may be due more to freshness. Often fruit crops are picked before they're ripe so they'll ship better and then artificially ripened with ethylene gas and the like.

Eating NH fruit in NH means they were likely allowed to ripen naturally, hence the better flavor. When I travelled to Georgia and had a peach from a road-side farm stand I couldn't buy peaches from the grocery store any longer; only tree-ripened peaches for me from then on.

But it’s a different variety. NH and ME blueberries and strawberries are best in my subjective opinion. It’s partially the rocky soil but I suspect it’s also the cold snaps and variety’s grown.

You picked up on that, too?

Good riddance

That is literally what a preconceived notion is. You don't need proof, your feelings are enough. I have no doubt you mean it, but you can't extrapolate your single opinion as the stance of an entire state.

speak English, what are you trying to say. you are attempting to be clever with a ‘fill in the blank’ and field trip. I said what I mean, plain and simple. I do know my towns historic voting and I have all the information that I personally need.

This is a great opportunity to remind people of the new 988 number that connects folks in mental health crises to mental health services. I’m not sure with the presence of a knife if the police presence could have been entirely avoidable, but at least looping in crisis services may have offered a less lethal response.

Yeah, it was out throughout southern NH from what I understand. I ran an errand yesterday and they couldn't accept credit cards because they were down as well.

The initial text I got said it would be restored at 1:40PM, the most recent text I got said service was restored at 3:22AM.

Pedo alert

All good points.

I don’t think I said anything about the job being easy. Just that if you look at it from a distance, the majority of police work done in our society serves the purpose of creating criminals out of harmless people more so than it does to deal with situations like this one. And when these things happen, there’s training issues.

I’m also not saying it’s the fault of the actual officers, themselves. More so that the justice system and the laws it enforces exists primarily to fill the State’s coffers, rather than represent the interests of the People it “serves.”

I expect they'll vote themselves a big pay raise that costs you and me millions of dollars, which they will pocket, and do nothing in return.

Mud

Don’t call the police! Flat out murderers.

So no cities that defunded the police? Atlest you admit it just a fairytail.

Imagine the help that could be provided to NH citizens with state funds vs. letting them vote themselves a pay raise to do nothing.

No thanks!

I didn't base anything on the headline. The body of the article clearly states that the individual was armed with a knife according to the authorities. Could the reporter have gotten that wrong? Possible, but unlikely.

> You’re really going hard for the cops here

I'm going hard for not sentencing the cops based on what sounds like a justified use of force situation. So far, there aren't any red flags.

Based on what exactly?

So next person up, bring a new guest book!
