Is anyone else tired of the labeling? Both sides of the political aisle label the other to varying degrees. John Robinson, candidate for NH State Senate, clearly is not. If you choose not to support Robinson are you one of the ‘Crazies’? Are the ‘Crazies’ a problem in Londonderry or another parts of the sate? Has Robinson ever ‘stood up’ at a Londonderry Town Council or School Board meeting to address these individuals ? Robinson has disabled commenting for some of his Facebook posts. While labeling people as ‘Crazy’ he also deletes comments that respond to his posts. Robinson insist that we exercise reason, RESPECT, and sanity. Where is the respect by labeling residents as ‘crazies’ and not allowing anyone to respond?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The response below was posted to the John Robinson for State Representative page on 10\/20\/2022 and submitted for print in the Londonderry Times on 10\/27\/2022. If elected Robinson would represent Hudson, Londonderry and Auburn as a NH State Senator.

The Londonderry Times asks, \u201cHow will I represent the residents of Londonderry in Concord and in town?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019ll be the person who stands up to the crazies. Lately there are lots of them, in town and statewide. They\u2019re in school board meetings, legislative chambers, letters to editors, political campaigns\u2013 Qanoners, Oathkeepers, ultra-MAGAs, rights-revokers, \u201cfree staters,\u201d friends of Brandon, plandemicists, anti-vaxers, anti-maskers, gaslighters, election deniers, police defunders, Tucker lovers, Tonka truck-driving flag defilers, and \u201cvery fine people on both sides.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019m running because our current representatives have sat silent as the crazy swelled, and that\u2019s the worst thing they could have done. Free speech doesn\u2019t mean leaving lies unchallenged. Leaders who try to befriend the crazies only make the crazy bolder, and that\u2019s what our representatives\u2019 silence has done. We hoped the madness would burn itself out after the last election, but it rages on. Now our rights and freedoms are on the ballot, so we need to stand up on November 8.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s time to elect servant leaders up and down the ballot who honor their offices by speaking truth to the crazies \u2013 even those ventriloquist\u2019s puppets who tarnish their own party\u2019s ticket. I will do that because I don\u2019t fear losing support from the fringes or climbing political ladders. I don\u2019t pander to Washington party bosses or some defeated former guy\u2019s cult. I\u2019ll defend a woman\u2019s right to choose. I\u2019ll defend public education. I\u2019ll defend free and fair elections. I\u2019ll defend all forms of diversity. I\u2019ll work to expand affordable health care. I\u2019ll fight for tax fairness. And I\u2019ll stand up for all our rights \u2013 free speech, religious freedom, responsible gun ownership, and the rest \u2013 like true Republicans used to do! – by insisting that we exercise each with reason, respect, and sanity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
