Adam Kokesh ordered held without bond in D.C.

[phill4paul]

Bastard. Adam is not a danger to the community.

The Judge was 100% in the prosecutions pocket and wouldn't allow the defense attorney to ask the officer on the stand the simplest of questions. The Federal detention facility where Adam is being held also confiscated all of his legal documents and when the defense attorney brought that up the Judge said, "Well he can pay the court for a copy of today's record."

Glad the judge is non-biased and will allow Adam, along with his attorney, the chance to defend himself.

You see, this monstrous rigged CON game is showing cracks, and that can't happen in the created illusion of freedom in America today. Activists like Kokesh are getting too much attention, exposing too much to the public... they are close to exposing the entire game of lies by the imperial empire. The Plutocracy will not allow such exposure.

PS: The abandonment of the RULE of LAW has brought, which is, how the justice system(JUST-US) treats you, not based on what you have done, as blind justice requires, but based almost entirely on who you are. This is the definition of Washington DC Judge Sullivan's abandonment of the Rule of Law.

I look forward to seeing how your efforts pan out.

So do I.

Absolutely correct. Peoples eyes are starting to be opened. They cannot allow that.

Doherty: Anarcho-Activist Adam Kokesh Held Without Bond for Filming Himself Performing an Utterly Harmless "Crime"
http://reason.com/blog/2013/07/29/anarcho-activist-adam-kokesh-held-withou

Anarcho-activist Adam Kokesh was ordered held without bond on charges of loading a forbidden shotgun in D.C. (an act he filmed as deliberate political theater), reports radio station WTOP in D.C.
[...]
Kokesh next court date is scheduled for Aug. 13.

I see the reasoning---God forbid this man be free to once again commit an act of journalism/activism involving a completely harmless "crime" (loading a banned weapon in a forbidden place--a weapon perfectly legal to use in many other places in the United States with little to no harm to anyone.)

His real crime of course is his claim that he has the right to perform harmless acts the state forbids. That's very difficult for agents of the state to forgive.

Mike Riggs on the pointlessly excessive assault on Kokesh's home for this "crime." Me on the theater of phony consent in his trial.

"I consider your client to be a very dangerous man," the judge said. "This is not a political statement."

Lol. We need Orwell's double-speak translator on that statement!

 

[satchelmcqueen]

can someone pont me to where they proved he loaded live ammo?

 

[Brian4Liberty]

A political prisoner!

Didn't he admit it? I could be wrong.

Unfortunately, I don't think that stunt opened anyone's eyes, but those whose eyes are already opened. Most people are likely going to view Kokesh as a dangerous person. Remember that most don't live to keep up with legislation, or what the government is up to, in general. As long as WalMart is open and QVC is operating, they are all good.

Most people are not awakened by principle. They are awakened when something happens that threatens them directly. That is why the bad guys have done so well focusing on emotion. We need to learn that.

Molyneux thinks it was too early for this, and mostly because the press controls the narrative and like you said, the people aren't awake yet and will buy that he is dangrous.

Didn't he admit it? I could be wrong.

Yes, he admitted to the crime in an interview along with the fact that he is on psychiatric disability from the military and I believe medicated for it as well.

He is held without bond because it is likely that he will continue to commit more crimes given his history and mental state.

Some of you will say the law he broke was unconstitutional and I'll agree, but it's still a law. We have procedures to seek redress for unconstitutional laws but he took it upon himself to break the law instead and is now suffering the consequences.

 

[better-dead-than-fed]

People are held without bail... when they are considered a flight risk...

... or when they are found to be a "danger", which is different from flight-risk. See my previous post; or look directly in 18 USC 3142(e)(1)

 

[John Taylor]

I sense his strength and power growing. Here's hoping he can use it wisely.

Mr. Kokesh is sidelining himself. His efforts are laudable morally, but do little to advance the cause of effectuating limited government tangibly.

Mr. Amash is a far better exemplar of liberty minded professionals impacting the political and legal environments in more than a transitory manner.

You are correct 69360. As a criminal defense attorney, the fact of the matter is, bond/bail is set to ensure that an individual shows up for court, that they have an incentive not to flee, and that they are disabled and deterred from the commission of further crimes. Mr. Kokesh should not be held without bail/bond in my opinion, unless his alleged crime was a violent one, or if he has demonstrated an unwillingness to show up for court, or if he has demonstrated a willingness to continue in breaking the law while out on pre-trial services. Bond/bail is not to be punitive, but neither is its amount determined reasonable based on a defendant's ability (or inability) to pay it.

Kokesh did try to run for office, but got sidelined by the New Mexico GOP. With that said, I kinda agree with you.

I believe he was released on bond or OR from his arrest in Philly last month, not sure how that case ended. I think the court is justified in it's belief he will continue to break the law given his prior actions, total lack of cooperation or participation in prior proceedings and his mental state.

At first I figured he might be cointelpro with all the crazy actions, but it seems like he just need mental health treatment now.
