I'm glad he's not going back but too bad they took his legal gun rights away. (Go bury some in the desert.)
Hopefully never. He stopped calling his show Adam vs The Man. I heard him talk about why and it sounded like he doesn't want to keep being the guy marching on the front line like he had been. I can't blame him for that.

2016 gop est business as usual, rules do not apply.
I am glad he got off, largely because he didn't infringe on anyone's rights during his antics... but he is not very smart about things and he makes himself very unsympathetic due to his actions and rhetoric.... imagine him going before a jury for example.
Also, half the point of civil disobedience is to show how sympathetic your cause is and how ridicules the government is behaving. When one's actions or rhetoric overshadow the point you're making and turn people off of you, then it is kind of self-defeating.

I am glad that Adam does not have to go to prison.
Ah, the hobbit has come out of his hole.
On Trump:
How conservative Republicans can continue to support this arrogant imposter—the man who brags about inflicting the world with the Covid mark of the beast; the man who said, “Take the guns first, go through due process second”; and the man who deliberately played and then set up Stewart Rhodes (of course, Stewart was all too eager to be Trump’s patsy) for an 18-year prison sentence—is truly beyond my comprehension.” Chuck Baldwin
I think that portion of your comment, was actually meant for these threads, and regarding someone else?

I wish I got that lucky.
"The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles." —Jeff Cooper
Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars.
What I find strange about Kokesh is that he goes and does the thing for civil disobedience, and then rather than fighting it out and embarrassing them in court he just rolls over and pleads guilty. Did he not understand what he was getting into, or something?
I wonder why he didn't just shoot a green screen video that made it appear as if he was loading a shotgun in DC while not actually doing so. If he just wanted to troll the authorities that might have been better.
Agreed. If Adam had "stuck to his guns" (pun intended) he could have taken the gun ban to the supreme court, but they got him for the drugs/guns mix (922g). If he had not had drugs in the house, he could have appealed any charge against him for just loading the shotgun in Freedom Plaza... that would have been a badass fight. Not saying that I support drug laws, but Adam could have made a much bigger impact if he had just stuck to the gun issue.

Then there was all the money that was collected for his legal defense, which went in someone's pocket, I guess.
Looks like my post got deleted.
