Libertarians denied Canada entry, laptops seized for ‘propaganda’ search
Written by Joe O'Donnell on July 28, 2009 – 6:25 pm -7-23 mhd site:
Jason and Pete from Motorhome Diaries have been detained at the Canadian border leaving Vermont on I-91. They have been there for the last 4 hours, MARV has been searched by both state agents and the K-9 patrol. The MHD Guys were filming as the neared the check point, but the video was deleted and they were informed if they continued to film, record, or take pictures they would be arrested.
A box of literature from the Alliance of the Libertarian Left was taken, and a copy of Crispin Sartwell’s “Against the State” was left out on the counter. The RV was ransacked but thankfully not to the point it was in Jones County, Mississippi. Their laptops are now in the possession of the state agents, and those agents are reading about fr33 Agents, The Free State Project, and Jason & Pete’s former employer. One agent has accused them of ’spreading misinformation.’
The guys have been told that the state agents are looking for “Pornography or Heinous Propaganda.”

Another black mark against Canada, another aging politically correct welfare state with a bleak future and shitty health care system.

I can’t drink Molson anymore, just Utica’s Saranac.

Spreading misinformation…oh no…what will the citizenry do? Thank goodness for the truth police. That was close.

Ya, we wouldn’t want Canadian boobus to find out through “misinformation” that their government sucks.
