Leaving personalities aside, is the idea of an armed march on the treasonous capital such a bad idea for a group of people whose rights are daily being stolen?

Yes, I know it's incendiary. Yes, I know it's provocative. Yes, I know it directly challenges the latter-day Gestapo to do something about it.

But maybe that's what it's come to. And maybe this is the last chance we'll get.

I doubt the Minutemen did so much navel-gazing when the British marched on Concord. They grabbed their guns and manned the barricades. It may very well be time we do the same.

If not now, soon ...

The problem is the public just isn't there yet. If something goes wrong, we look like armed crazies. The public doesn't like crazy unless they feel absolutely oppressed - and the bulk of the public most certainly does not feel that way at this time. When what passes for the American public can pry itself away from RealityTV, then maybe something like this could be effective. We're just not at that place yet.

And in this case the whole thing is nonstarter anyway because Adam Kokesh is an anti-war nutter.

The left is drooling over this and are hoping this stunt goes ahead. That alone should be enough to show us what a stupid idea this stunt is.
