Aaron James Campaign Update.  Aaron was on the [http://www.wemfradio.com/wp-content/uploads/podcasts/youngjurks/8-20-16-YJ.mp3 Young Jurks] this past Saturday.  More canvassing this Saturday. Another campaign event on 8/30 @ Somerville Armory (6p-9:30p)
Aaron James campaign event from Aug 30th.  We have audio, but it's not up yet.  Overall, the event seemed to go well.


Cryptoparty.  Jamie and Ben are doing a cryptoparty at the BPL in Dorchester on Saturday.
BPL cryptoparty went well.  They'd like us to come back again.  We may also get the opportunity to do cryptoparties at other BPL branches.


Ballot Measures.  https://ballotpedia.org/Massachusetts_2016_ballot_measures.  Plan to review the ballot questions during the week.  We'll try to form a party position next week.  A place to draft positions: http://piratepad.net/r7PEC7Winx
Aaron James campaign door-to-door.


CCTV mapping.  FFTF might be interested in collaborating on what we've done with https://cctv.masspirates.org.  Probably best for Jamie and JTIII to discuss collaboration parameters.
If you can table with us at Freedom rally, please [https://masspirates.org/crew/civicrm/event/info?reset=1&id=17 sign up].  Friday night setup should be covered, but we'll need help on Saturday and Sunday.


Pirate podcasts.  Steve had to miss a week; FOIA for fun and Liberation will go up next weekend.  Noe has video, but hasn't had the chance to do any editing.
[http://piratepad.net/r7PEC7Winx Ballot Measures].  Steve will put together a web form with a poll.


Running for local office.  Democracy center reserved for Nov 12, 12:30p - 5:00pm.  Perhaps another one in springfield, and/or Amherst
Rock against the TPP.  4-0 vote in favor of supporting.  Endorsement passes.

        Emailed them out to the cryptoparty list
21:15 < jokeefe> They would like us to come back in the Fall
21:15 < Bluestreak> It is the fall!
21:15 < Bluestreak> October?
21:16 < Bluestreak> Same branch?
21:16 < Bluestreak> (of the BPL)
21:17 < jokeefe> Likely, though they said that they would suggest the
        idea of a cryptoparty to other libraries.
21:18 < Bluestreak> Who is the contact person, you, jokeefe?
21:18 < jokeefe> yes
21:18 < jokeefe> Haven’t heard how the Parts & Crafts cryptoparty went.
        did you get a chance to go, srevilak?
21:19 < srevilak> No, wasn't able to make it.

21:22 < jokeefe> Looks like setup is covered
21:23 < Bluestreak> Jason isn
21:23 < Bluestreak> nt logged on IRC, but I can tell you he is recruiting

21:27 < Bluestreak> Personally I am strongly against charter schools,
        strongly for legal weed, and have no pref on other two
21:29 < jokeefe> My suggestion is to setup a poll so people beyond IRC
        can give their input
21:29 < jokeefe> Though Question 4 agrees with our stated position in
        favor of legalization
21:29 < jokeefe> Other opinions?
21:30 < srevilak> I think a poll makes sense
21:30 < Bluestreak> Agreed
21:31 < srevilak> I can put a web form together tomorrow night
21:32 < Kendra> You might look at some of the tax revenue benefits to
        some states and drop in Medicare claims
21:33 < Kendra> Fewer arrests etc
21:33 < jokeefe> Should we use the statements in the MA voting guide?
21:35 < Kendra> It could be a part of a list of issues or campaigns and
        causes the Pirates support
21:36 < jokeefe> not sure what you mean
21:37 < Kendra> Maybe I don't either,  I was answering about the voter's
        guide which might include many issues
21:39 < Kendra> Also I'm not there so I'lll pipe down
21:39 < jokeefe> Well the secretary of state’s voter guide isn’t up,
        so it is rather moot to include it ;-)
21:39 < Bluestreak> It’s OK to have an opinion from out of state on
        the matter IMO
21:40 < Bluestreak> There certainly is a lot of out of state money coming
        on all matters
21:40 < Bluestreak> So out-of-state opinions matter too
21:41 < Bluestreak> Enough states legalize weed, we could end prohibition
        all together.
21:41 < Kendra> I just see less problems here with the medical marijuana
        legalized and less street crime
21:42 < Kendra> There is no limit on dispesaries though, yet
21:42 < jokeefe> Guess we could just summarize what the measures say
21:43 < jokeefe> anyone up for summarizing any of the questions?
21:46 < jokeefe> Well if you want to, email me, srevilak or the list
21:46 < jokeefe> Rock Against the TPP - Boston
21:46 < jokeefe> Evan contacted me about helping out
21:47 < jokeefe> We oppose the TPP. Suggest we support it
21:47 < jokeefe> Any discussion?
21:47 < Bluestreak> I hope to promote it
21:47 < Bluestreak> Cross-promotion a possibility?
21:47 < srevilak> Agree to supporting
21:48 < Bluestreak> Who will approach Evan?
21:48 < Bluestreak> About cross promotion?
21:49 < jokeefe> Evan emailed me.  I have followed up.
21:49 < Bluestreak> Great!
21:50 < jokeefe> Will say it is 2nded.  All in favor of supporting?
