Granite State Bullies in Rindge

As we posted, over 150 people attended a meeting last week in Rindge, NH. There is now a large group of folks working to oppose Granite State Future planning in that town.

We have learned that some people supporting the plans visited some businesses in town and demanded that the promotional flyers for the opposition be removed from the stores’ windows and bulletin boards or they would be boycotted. The business owners complied.

Here is a blog from one of the supporters of the agenda:

While admitting she is a fan of grant money, she apparently does not understand that RGGI is a scam that redirects money to special interests and does NOTHING to make us more ‘sustainable’.

“I wish I could get more grant money for other projects. I understand that RGGI funds will become available soon for municipal projects. I’d like to apply for some of that funding to move us along a more sustainable path. What do I mean by sustainable? I mean that it takes less resources and that we may even provide some of the power for our buildings, so that it becomes less costly to “sustain” them.”

Further she asks “After all, what is the biggest penalty HUD could impose if you violated their rules? You guessed it: You would have to return the money.”

Not so… Apparently she has never seen the video by Rob Astorino in which Astorino talks about how his county went along with HUD’s requirements and yet, that wasn’t enough. HUD ended up suing them because they wanted even more control over zoning, more section 8 housing, and more forced economic and racial integration, as HUD views local zoning as ‘racist’.

Her anger and emotions got the best of her and she also exposed her agenda for Rindge (money from RGGI) and let us know that one of her allies is head of the town’s public works department.

This person and her story demonstrates the bullying tactics being used against anyone who dares to question Granite State Future and the HUD grants thereof.

Don’t let it happen in your town.
