Witch's show at Sprague library in question

October 22, 2008 - 9:36am — Blake

A group's idea to invite a witch to explain his craft at Sprague's library on Halloween has prompted toil and trouble in the small eastern Connecticut town.

The Rev. Rapid Cabot Freeman, who hosts a public access television show on witchcraft, says town officials trying to block his appearance are discriminating against him based on his religious beliefs.

Don't Vex the Hexer!

Politicians can vex normal folks with little risk, but they risk having a hex placed on them when they vex a witch. Wait and see how he does in the next election. Maybe there will be a clean sweep with a witch's broom!

"It is not a matter of which witch to vex, but which witch you vex will hex back!"

Lee Hadden (These are my own opinions!)

Room Reservations?

This is a fund-raising activity for the Friends (and we all know who benefits from FOL monies).... Why then is there any problem at all (unless the room has restrictions on political & religious usage)? Why is a performer, who happens to be raising funds for the FOL, even being asked to make the room reservations and pay for the room? Friends groups are not charged to use the library meeting room for raising funds for the library! Or are they?

There is obviously more to this than there appears, seems someone has a hidden objection.

Those people who are not interested in this type of program do not have to attend, but they have no right to keep others who want to attend from attending.

Will the objector attempt to remove the 133's from the collection as well?
