Anarchist activist Adam Kokesh is being sought by Washington D.C. police after uploading a video that appears to show him open carrying a weapon in Freedom Plaza on the 4th of July. Appearing disturbed and threatening violent revolution as he loaded a shotgun (with what appeared to be birdshot), Kokesh seems to have crossed the line between peaceful activist and domestic terrorist.
Kokesh had originally planned to lead a march of up to 10,000 persons, openly carrying firearms as they crossed into the District of Columbia from Virginia; but Kokesh abandoned that plan after intense pressure from both supporters and opponents.

Oh puhhleeease!! Stop with the melodrama, OP. Does anyone see the hypocrisy and double standard that one set of humans puts on a uniform and calls themselves government and is then exempt from DC gun laws? Ah, so I can put on a badge, carry a gun around DC and point it at other humans and tell them they can't have one? NIce, very nice.
If only more people had courage and balls like Kokesh, we wouldn't be sitting around drooling watching football and Kim Kardashian.
Keep doing what you do, Adam.

Ive seen him speak already, years ago at a Ron Paul event in DC.
The man is a patroit and stout American in my op.
Sorry to hear he may have crossed the line and found a way to get arrested.(is that the plan?)
Mandella dosent work in America.
Sad but true.
Maybe if ya got time listen to one of his speaches on youtube.
At least video dosent prove the rounds were real. could have been blanks.
Powerful Speaker. Cause he's been there.

While I might not agree with all of his methods or ideas, I can't hate on the guy for wanting to throw a wrench into the works.
I wish him the best of luck in pissing off the "authorities" and hope he doesn't get himself shot to death in the process.edit on 8-7-2013 by watchitburn because: (no reason given)
At Ron Paul's last even before the Republican Convention there was a flyer circulating that was put out by Ron Paul's people. It was a wanted poster featuring Kokesh's face with big block letters saying "DO NOT ADMIT."

Kill thousands of innocent people overseas and you are a nobel peace prize winner, load a shotgun in "freedom plaza" and you are a domestic terrorist. Makes sense.. I don't think loading a shotgun does anything for the cause, but I also don't think he is a terrorist.edit on 8-7-2013 by Freezer because: (no reason given)

Kokesh has proven that he will attach himself to anyone's coattails if it gives him more exposure, only he inevitably ends up betraying that person.

Your comment is off-topic and quite frankly you're trolling. This thread isn't about your perceived weakness of gun owners.
