Kokesh Arrested

[PatriotOne]

Wait, when did he ask for it? Is standing up and telling people to stand up for their freedom considered asking for arrest? Do you wish imprisonment on everyone who is actually willing to stand up against the oppressive state?

They were committing an illegal act by smoking weed (whether you agree with the law or not doesn't matter). I don't know if Kokesh was smoking at the time but he seemed to be one who was leading the activities since he had the microphone.

So yeah. Wouldn't you expect to get arrested if you lit up a joint in front of the police where it is illegal? I would. Unless Kokesh is retarded, he expected it also.

[TheTexan]

What makes you think he's Cointel?

Because he disagrees with Adam's methods and therefore he must be cointel

They weren't arrested.
And "they" have been having "Smoke downs" regularly.

And by the accounts of several witnesses Adam was not smoking.

he was targeted and dragged out of the crowd.

Anyone with a microphone is COINTEL and should be seized by the government? Just to make sure I understand your reasoning?

[Keith and stuff]

If he smoked weed in front of a cop then he is a known drug user and federally banned from having a gun.

[JK/SEA]

he'll be kept in custody till 7/6.

Another angle



Looks like they targeted him specifically. A preemptive arrest perhaps.

I'm sure this is about march on washington not weed. They know arresting him on the march would get much bigger headlines and automatic conservative support from huge factions, even those who are law and order types, typically. Weed is less sympathetic.

Of course he was. He had JUST walked off stage. He was up on stage next to the speaker inciting the dumbasses to light up joints illegally seconds before he was arrested. He made a target of himself. Can't believe people are shocked about Kokesh being arrested....lol.

someone posted on facebook that as a fact he hadn't smoked that day. Obviously, not having been there myself....

[WhistlinDave]

On his Fedbook page:

Adam has been arrested and is in jail in Philly... I can personally testify that he hadn't even smoked yet... everyone please phone bomb the philly police and jail phone lines and demand adam be released amd able to make contact with us... other protesters were actually smoking and released after arrest but adam was taken away in a white chevy suburban... phone bomb them now!!! --- Brother Lucas

And then about a hundred comments asking for the phone number. (Duh, Lucas! LOL) Here are some of the phone #s given by others:

215-686-8686
215-686-3280 Non-emergency
215-686-3007 9th district (?)
215-686-1234 "Rotary"

being arrested for standing on stage next to someone is a new criminal charge I hadn't seen on the books before.

[Aratus]

they are on the verge of saying it was some high quality hashish
he was "bogarting" rather than the local marijuana that has only
a bit more THC than wild hemp plants? he just might have to be
moneybomb liberated by us on France's Bastille Day at this rate!

Yeah...that's exactly what I said. You win a prize. Here's your T-shirt.

No one is shocked that he is arrested. People, well most of us, are not happy because he is arrested. Another human being that didnt hurt anyone or anything is thrown in cage and people (at least few of us) are shocked that you "are ok with that."...yes you are ok with that with a smiley.

So standing next to someone "inciting" people to smoke weed makes him COINTEL and should be seized by the gov. Alrighty then.

Yeah...that's what happened. You win a prize also.

Looks like someone is trying to make Kokesh a martyr. Works for me.

Damn..i live in the Pacific Northwest. Its a long way to DC via car. Thats the only reason i haven't committed to going to the gun rally....i got one foot inside the car door now...

[better-dead-than-fed]

Might want to put the videos on P2P before police come to your homes and confiscate your copies.

I'm not okay with people who smoke pot being thrown in jail unless they are a bunch of dumbasses being useful idiots for cointel pro. Kokesh is cointel pro and not a dumbass so I hope he gets the book thrown at him.

Unfortunately it is on the wrong issue. Which is why they didn't want to make him a martyr on what I am sure is the real reason they were stalking him, the DC march.

Alex Jones said he was going on that. That would have been highly publicized. Wonder if AJ is still going?

[pcosmar]

This was the rally last month,



Wasn't arrested then.
In fact from what I can find,, this was the Fifth one in Philly. And a good crowd of folks.
Police were not targeting the crowd of smokers.

problem is, this 'arrest' is transparent. It will only serve to inflame sympathizers.

You really need a new shirt.

i thought stupid was spelled with 2 'O's'...?

It will not serve to wake up those concerned with the 2d amendment and govt tyranny as an arrest on the DC march might have done, however.

hard to say at this point. Keep an eye on the attendee count on facebook.

it usually is, and sometimes there is the words I'M WITH preceding it...
