Nazi Tactics

"Days after Adam Kokesh staged an open carry protest by loading a shotgun in Washington DC, “storm trooper” police raided the former Marine’s home last night, smashing in his door and deploying a flash bang grenade before arresting Kokesh."

I ask you again, what country are we living in? What has happened to the Constitution?

Dum-Dum knowingly breaks a firearm-related law in Washington D.C. while making some interesting comments about a presumably-armed upcoming revolution. So instead of sending Barney Fife to his front door with his one bullet in his pocket, the police make some crazy assumption that this is the type of whacko who might have an arsenal in his house, and just might try to shoot old Barney's head off. They should have waited until someone was shot, THEN come in hard.

Don't protest traffic laws by deliberately running a red light in front of a cop, then cry when you get a ticket...

Basically, he's being arrested for having weed and guns in the same house. Yet alcohol use provokes much more violence than marijuana, and it's perfectly legal to have a case of beer and a lot of iron in the same house ... makes sense, right?

He may seem like a whacko, but he has a lot of valid points. Wish that more Americans were like him and were willing to stand up for their Constitutional freedoms. He's not only a fan of the 2nd Amendment, as many neocons are:

A trained marine vet. Wonder who they should send in? Your Grandma on her wheelchair? Seriously? Being a Marine vet doesn't entitle you to special privileges.

I wonder if there if a way to stand up for Constitutional freedom without loading a shotgun?

Think the TSA should let him breeze through airport security?

When a city unreasonably and unconstitutionally restricts gun rights, sometimes a point has to be made.

Describes himself as an "anarcho-capitalist", you'd think he'd be a big proponent of local decision making and control.

Local freedom isn't freedom to trample the Constitution.

With all due respect to his service and his views of the 2nd amendment what he did was over the line. I'm hardly interested the views of some kid tossing a tantrum because he can't get his way.

But of course they should. In fact, we should all ask him to drop his pants so we can french kiss his ass.

So if I feel you wronged me and the court doesn't agree but I still feel it, you going to give me a pass when I "make my point"? We going to have a society left when everyone simply says "I'm trying to make a point"?

Good thing is that he's getting a *****-ton of publicity due to the arrests.

They all are until it goes against them. This is no different than us support the SCOTUS when they rule with us against whomever and then call them a bunch of crooks when they go against us. That way, we are being "fair weathered friends". That kind of friendship, as I suspect you know, is meaningless.
