NH Libertarian Leader Charged After Alleged Racist Incident

Police were called to the Elm Street Market Basket parking lot around 2 p.m. on April 4 to deal with reports that a man hit another car in the parking lot with his car, fought with several people, and then went inside the store and continued yelling. One witness told police the suspect, later identified as Kauffman, immediately started making racist statements after the fender bender, and tried to fight people. When a bystander, who is Black and from Jamaica, walked by the incident, Kauffman reportedly directed his ire toward that man.

“[He] told him to ‘go back to Africa’ and began spouting racist slang and terms at him,” police report.

Kauffman reportedly continued to scream racist insults at people in the parking lot, according to police. Witnesses told police that Kauffman’s two young sons finally pulled their father away and dragged him inside the store.

Police soon encountered Kauffman inside the store, where he refused to give his name, and tried to pull away from officers when they attempted to detain him, according to the report.

Contacted this week, Kauffman doubled down on the incident.

“Free Staters want to end qualified immunity so that police who perform illegitimare [sic] kidnappings suffer criminal consequences,” Kauffman said via text message.

When asked what led up to the incident, Kauffman used racist logic to blame minorities.

“Low IQ schizophrenic Africans who scream at kids in parking lots should be deported from New Hampshire. We shouldn’t punish decent men who stand up to them,” Kauffman wrote.

Police reports state that the children’s mother was called to the grocery store parking lot to take the boys home. She was also informed that the Division for Children, Youth & Families would be sent a report about the incident.

Kauffman is no stranger to racism and other forms of bigotry. The 2022 Libertarian candidate for Senate was kicked off the Free State Project Board in 2023 after he refused to stop posting racist, anti-Semitic, and anti-LGBTQ content on the FSP social media accounts.

I love this panel. It speaks to me. Loudly.

Fullerton Man Accused of Attacking Neighbors with Axe and Car

A 29-year-old man was behind bars Wednesday on charges of violating a restraining order and attacking a man and woman in Fullerton with a car and an axe.

Jeremy Salvador Castro was accused of attacking the victims about 4 p.m. Saturday at 1672 Shady Brook Drive, near Hillcrest Park and Brea Boulevard, police said.

Castro allegedly hit a woman with a car and crashed into a residence, police said. When he got out of the car the axe-wielding man attacked a man, police alleged.

Castro was ultimately subdued by neighbors and the man and woman sustained non-life-threatening injuries, police said.

In October, a neighbor on Shady Brook Drive sought a restraining order against Castro alleging he had threatened the man’s 13-year-old son and vandalized an electrical panel, according to court records.

The homewoners association had gotten a restraining order against Castro earlier in 2025, the man said.

The neighbor said he got into a fight with Castro on Oct. 14 when he “came to my door armed with a machete” and threatened and spat on the man.

Castro was charged Tuesday with four counts of attempted murder, a count of inflicting injury on an elder adult, and a count of vandalism, all felonies, as well as misdemeanor counts of disobeying a court order and resisting arrest.

He faces sentencing enhancements for inflicting great bodily injury, personal use of a deadly weapon, and attempted premeditated murder.

Castro did not enter a plea at his arraignment Tuesday in the Central Justice Center in Santa Ana and the hearing was rescheduled for May 26 in the North Justice Center in Fullerton.

Castro is also facing charges stemming from June 2022 in which he was accused of drawing or exhibiting a weapon and carrying a concealed gun, all misdemeanors. A landscaper reported in Oct. 21, 2021, he was working at 1720 Shadow Brook Drive when Castro pointed a gun at him, prosecutors said in court papers.

On June 6, 2022, a physician’s assistant was driving to work when he stopped for a short time in front of the defendant’s home to adjust a dashboard setting when an angry Castro told him he was blocking his driveway, prosecutors said.

The victim pulled away a short distance but noticed Castro was armed so he got out of his car with his hands up and explained he was a neighbor, prosecutors said.

The neighbor heard Castro muttering to himself so he got back in his car and drove away, prosecutors said.

On June 10, 2022, a woman walking her dog got into a conflict with the defendant when her pet urinated on a bush in front of his home, prosecutors said. When he confronted her about it she apologized and assured him it wouldn’t happen again, and he indicated he had a weapon and said it better not happen again, prosecutors said.

Pardon me, but what the hell is a piece of dangerous crap like this doing on the streets, while an innocent like me is kidnapped & rendered to a psychiatric jail for a damn wk.? Fucking Orange County sissies. Th' hell are you paying your judges for?
