A controversial Internet talk show host was arrested at his home in Herndon on Tuesday night after a videotaped July 4 stunt in which he loaded a shotgun in the District’s Freedom Plaza — a violation of the city’s gun laws.

Information about the arrest of Adam Kokesh was posted on his blog late Tuesday night. The Herndon Police Department confirmed Wednesday that Mr. Kokesh was arrested on a federal warrant but could not provide information about the nature of the charges.

Video of the infraction. (Warning some profanity)

are you kidding with that post? How may times do supposed “conservatives” have to be told blatant lies before they finally wise up.

“OH, the proper authorities and the news said he had $#^%#*%$*&, hang him”

Sorry if I’m harsh, but wake up everyone. Don’t be the beaten spouse who always comes back for more.

My point being, if your goal is to get arrested for non-violent resistance, you make sure you are arrested on your terms, in the open, with cameras, in an area that is public. There are reasons people don’t leave notes or videos saying “I broke the law here to make a point, you can find me at this address..”

Isn’t this the guy who wanted to lead an armed march on DC a while back?

Fortunately few if any fell for it.

That would have gone over ever so well, wouldn’t it?

We have had a lot of “TEA Party” pretenders trying to infiltrate and discredit the movement since the git go.
I get the impression that this dude is trying to pull the same tactic with the Second Amendment advocates.

Just stand next to them with signs with arrows pointing to them that say “NOT ONE OF US!”
