*** About the Walk For Liberty

What are you willing to do for freedom?

Vote? Protest? Participate in a rally? Walk all the way across the country?

We are.

This summer, a group of activists will be walking across America to achieve more freedom and liberty.

Our pioneer forefathers trekked across the continent from the east to the west to find a better life for themselves. This time, we're doing it in reverse.

I am walking coast-to-coast across the country, from Oregon to New Hampshire. I am joined by my immediate family as well. We're on a quest to gain more freedom for ourselves and for our country by spreading the message of freedom and liberty along the way.

Why are we doing this?

We see the gradual chipping away at freedoms in America, and want to do our part to stop it. My wife and I are moving to New Hampshire as part of the Free State Project. New Hampshire is already the freest state in the country, which is why we are moving there. But we also want to help bring more freedom to as many other people as possible.

Therefore we are walking across America to get to New Hampshire. We are walking all the way there to bring as much media attention and publicity as possible to two liberty-oriented causes: the Free State Project, which is working to make New Hampshire even more free, and Ron Paul's message of freedom for everyone.

  • I am bummed that I found out about this AFTER you completed your journey, but I love the idea

  • I loved watching the snow drifts.

  • Looks like it... I've always said if you want to know what people are like just interact with their dog(s).

  • And maybe speed up a little in curves... But that's a function of the way driving laws are written there.

  • those were freedom dogs for sure.....

  • Have you noticed Will that as the temperature approaches zero the snow gets louder as you walk? ;o) sounded like about -10.

  • We have to be, you folks from away provide us with our livelihood through tourism. Mostly the mass-hole thing comes from your driving habits, you need to slow down and enjoy your vacations more ;o) a mainah

  • why do you think we're called mass-holes?
