Were the Smashing Pumpkins playing there getting the crowd riled up?
Obola’s Amish cousins?
I’ll take Amish hooligans for 200$ Alex
So.... there was an argument over the pumpkins ?
How white can you get.

The New England Puritans used to know how to take care of Satanist savages like this.
Social Justice is all about free pumpkins for EVERYONE..as Obama has said, if you like your pumpkin you can keep your pumpkin
“White Riot....I wanna Riot...White Riot....a riot of my own....”
The facts about the mayhem at the Pumpkin festival have been intentionally skewed to blame the mayhem on over indulgence of alcohol. While the alcohol played a role in the mayhem, the real blame rests with organizers of drug legalization protest that sent out the word to supporters from other colleges in New England to come to Keene for a raucous and destructive good time. The point of which was to get some people arrested for smoking marijuana, not for mayhem and destruction. There is video of the two middle aged men doing just that, while organizing the protest with a bull horn and handing out lit marijuana jonts. The video shows the organizer being handcuffed.
Excellent...
Take chaos, ruin and unrest to the heart of New England...
Lib policy chickens come home to roost.
Cracker school.
Those liberals could use a little diversification. I say we busload a bunch up there.
These clown in New England schools know all about racial issues and diversity but they’re all crackers. They don’t have a clue about reality.
Obama’s white children
Shoot the rioters and be done with it.
piecing this together. What happened in Keene?
WTNH News 8 blames it on alcohol:

but was alcohol the only reason? was it, in fact, linked to this? was the disruption planned?

Most people would view having Homeland Security at such a mega-event as a plus. Our protection is in place, those who’s job it is to protect us are watching over us, and we can blissfully pretend that terrorism doesn’t exist in our part of the world. But some who tend to anarchy and who tend to be know-it-alls at 20 might view that as provocation - or, to be more truthful, just another reason to become provokers themselves and act like precocious 4yo’ds.
As to the “riot” itself and how it’s different from Ferguson is that while the police response was the same, the crowd response was much different. As the videos below show, the crowd was not ‘white people’ as some are quick to focus, but a mix of races, from asian to black to hispanic to white to middle-eastern.
Yes, an automobile was beat to death, several signs were murdered, 30 people were injured by thrown objects, a nursing home had to lock it’s doors and 14 to 50, depending on the source, were arrested, but no buildings burned or were looted. When the final order to return to their homes was issued, the crowd complied. The acting out never spilled over to the festival itself.
A party on Wilcox, one of many advertised on social media, grew too large. Those who couldn’t get in threw beer bottles at the attendees in the back yard. A beer and ball tossing fight broke out on Winchester Court (warning: nekked fool at 3:30 mark).

The bottle-throwing escallated, two sides formed, some misthrows striking spectators. 911 was called multiple times. The local police and firemen/medics arrive to assist the injured at the party house and elsewhere, to clear the street and wait for backup.

meanwhile, on Winchester, a brainless wonder takes out a street sign and at 2:03 mark another brainchild slings a waterbottle towards the police:

Riot-equipped police arrive. They form a line (dog(s) present), order people off the street and deploy pepperspray and pepperballs to clear the street. People start posing for selfies with the police line in the background and the house parties go back to partying. Nobody’s complaining about excessive force. Beginning at 3:38 mark, one idiot is arrested for trying to walk past the police line. A trooper explains at 7:10 that pepper balls don’t hurt. By the 7:20 mark everybody is back to happy drunk.

Twilight falls and our video-challenged instigating streamer hits the streets: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/liberty-patrol
‘Riot’ and ‘round 2’ of his videos don’t show much except the peaceful aftermath and relatively clear streets as twilight falls. The clip ‘Round 4’ gets interesting at the 28 minute mark, in that it shows a group of at least four, that take off in tandem to flip a car (but can’t flip the SUV they choose first). Five minutes later a car is successfully flipped, followed by someone damaging another car, to the anger of the crowd, some of whom photo the guilty and speak out angrily. Vandalism of cars can be heard but not seen.

‘car dance’ captured by skynews. The overturned donation bins shown below are likely the noise heard in the previous video:

An hour later, the streets are clear, the crowd heeding the warning to return to their homes.
meanwhile, AT the pumpkin festival, life is normal:

Alcohol and pumpkins don’t mix.
I remember when NH was a bastion of sanity.
