Free Grafton Selects Ambassador to UnFree Grafton

The liberty activism in Grafton, New Hampshire is innovative, entertaining and strikes the root.

Free Grafton has declared its independence. In a tiny corner of northern New Hampshire, the libertarian insurgency advances. Its tools are humor, mockery, art, theater, video cameras and the plain, unadulterated truth. I love what these guys are doing. The idea of appointing an ambassador to UnFree Grafton is so smart.

If I were that ambassador, I would dress the part. I’m thinking of the prime minister in The Mouse that Roared. I would send official letters to governments far and wide requesting appointments and, later, recognition. I’m thinking something like The Yes Men now. I would gather up a list of the products of Free Grafton and show them off at the government meetings, asking for special exemptions and trade agreements. Cardinal Kanning can accompany them. I would offer treaties and nonaggression pacts to state officials. There are a lot of philosophically-rewarding and thought-provoking pranks that complement this meme. Good luck guys!

And an almost fanatical devotion to the pope? :)
