Bryan Tann worked as a jail guard at the Cheshire “House of Corrections” aka the “Keene Spiritual Retreat” for 3.5 years. He took the job to help feed his family despite it being against his nature.
Byan says, “In that time, I saw the ideals of freedom being crushed…It hurt a piece of me everyday. I finally just couldn’t do it anymore, for many reasons. I would like to share with you these exploits if you will allow me.”
Bryan will be the Keenevention‘s closing speaker on Sunday, November 3rd at 3:30pm. Please come out and hear his unique perspective as someone who has participated in holding various Keene activists in a cage over the years, including Rich Paul, Ian Freeman, and Derrick J Freeman. Afterwards, we will convoy to the Cheshire jail where Rich Paul is still being held against his will for selling flowers and engage in a sign-waving to support Rich and the end of victimless “crimes”.

Many of our panels have expanded in length by 50%, from 50 mins to 75. Why the change? Few things are worse at a convention than when a panel is heating up and has to end for the next panel! See the Schedule page for the current lineup. Please note, the schedule is subject to changes.
Also, the panel to be hosted by two-time NHLA Legislator of the Year and Porcupine Real Estate agent Mark Warden has been renamed from the “Housing Panel” to “Porcupreneurs” and will now have a wider focus on being an entrepreneur in the Shire, which includes housing entrepreneurship.
