Adam Kokesh ordered held without bond in D.C.

[mad cow]

I'm not so worried yet, I have things that concern me, but all I really want is to be left alone. Where I am now is fine nobody bothers me and won't for the foreseeable future. I moved to where I am for that reason. If I can no longer live my life the way I want to I'll reevaluate it then. I'm proactive, rather than complain I will take action to remove myself from bad situations.

All I ever wanted was to be left alone.

But the government won't do that,will they?
I am trying to find some balance between supporting liberty and prepping for disaster with my limited funds.

Right now,my balance is swinging more toward guns&ammo,precious metals and prepper supplies.If I could,I would buy me a cabin way back in the woods and move there.

But we shouldn't fault others for where their balance falls at the moment,some favor politics,some favor activism.We are all on the same side and we are all in this together.

Who owns that property? Lol. This get's better and better. Your perceived "safe" situation. Lord it on. Lord it on.

They'll simply evict you and "Agenda 21" your property.

Private foundation. Well funded own many tracts of land in Maine to preserve from development and allow public access. Great people. Apparently the people I bought the place from were slobs. I cleaned up all the trash the previous owners threw in the woods, they were grateful.

So you're stating that you a buffer zone of some type?

Mass murderers aren't held without bond. They may have an un-payable bond set, but generally speaking they aren't held "without bond".

The state considers Kokesh a threat to its existence. What an honor.

I salute you, Mr. Kokesh.

I also salute Adam for having the courage to risk his freedom to make a point that could be historic.

I guess you could say that. It's a nature preserve. Hiking trails etc. It's nice to have all around me. They aren't hippie tree huggers either you can hunt on their land in season and fish in the river.

Yes, he's messed up his future. His prospects for employment are bleak with multiple felonies on his record. He's committed and admitted to a federal offense. He's looking at years in federal prison and severely reduced chances at a future upon release as a con. That's if the Feds even let him go. Any reasonable person can see that.

Any reasonable person can see that your perception is grossly distorted. Who here, besides maybe you, would deny someone a job because he had exercised his constitutional right to bear arms?

If we don't respect the rule of law, our society will break down into anarchy. The goes for government officials AND us as citizens. Nobody is above the law and can take the law into their own hands. If you don't agree with a law, work to change it. If that doesn't work remove yourself from the area with the law you don't like.

And when people believe they are above the law, and they pass unconstitutional legislative acts, we should submit or run away (while petitioning for redress), and if we don't submit or run away, we should to be imprisoned. Is this not your point?

Would it be harmful for people in any manner to lobby in favor of open-carry? Couldn't this upset Democrats, causing harmful backlash?

Also, would it be harmful to support the Second Amendment, as is?

During the 1788 ratification debates, ... It was understood across the political spectrum that the right helped to secure the ideal of a citizen militia, which might be necessary to oppose an oppressive military force if the constitutional order broke down.

Is this Amendment "stupid shit" that could attract unwanted attention from Democrats? Would it be better to support a toned-down Amendment that merely protects our right to keep/bear arms inside our homes?

his methods. ... makes us look very bad

When you write "us" here, it appears you are referring to the people who submit or run away. It's obvious that you're just a guy fighting his demons in a very public way. Why don't you get the psychiatric treatment you need?

He was already screwed, once he got the 70% PTSD classification. Once you get labeled with that type of mental classification, your job opportunities are severely limited.

Legally,your job opportunities are non-existent.

Medical evidence is signs, symptoms and laboratory findings and is required to document the claim. Symptoms, such as pain, are considered but must be reasonably expected to come from a medically determinable impairment which the claimant is diagnosed to have. The decision is based on a sequential evaluation of medical evidence. The sequence for adults is:
1. Is the claimant performing a substantial gainful activity? If yes, deny. If no, continue to next sequence.
2. Is the claimant's impairment severe? If no, deny. If yes, continue to next sequence.
3. Does the impairment meet or equal the severity of impairments in the Listing of Impairments?[8] If yes, allow the claim. If no, continue to next sequence.
4. Is the claimant able to perform past work? If yes, deny. If no continue to next sequence.
5. Is the claimant able to perform any work in the economy? If yes, deny. If no allow the claim.

It makes us look very bad and you are wrong if you think he hasn't badly damaged his future.

Adam Kokesh's actions represent Adam Kokesh. His actions are his own, as are yours. He's aware of what he's doing and his future is his own to shape. Some individuals may choose to identify with him on varying levels. You've already made it clear that you don't want to be associated with Kokesh, and made it apparent that you feel threatened by the mere prospect to the point that you've chosen to take action and relentlessly attack him with even the most flimsiest of evidence or reasoning to back yourself up.

There's one person who makes you look bad and it's not the person you're compulsively striving to make look bad.

Brother, I understand...I'm off by myself up to the hills of New Hampshire. I could, and would love to do nothing more than retreat and live my life comfortably up in the hills of God's Country. I pray for the day.

But I must be "proactive" myself, in my own way.

I have to worry, I have no choice but to do everything I can am brave enough to undertake, and to support, as much as I possibly can, those that are brave enough to risk it all, in any attempt to bring hurt to The System.

I have to worry about what kind of world I am leaving to my children.

I do not want them to live in a prison planet, as I'm sure you don't want yours to.

So I support Adam, even if he may be a little off kilter.

I support Rand, even though he has pissed me off by playing the "political game" closer to the breast than I care for.

I support Alex Jones, even if some find him to be offensive.

I support Glenn Greenwald, even though he may very well be a socialist.

See what I'm getting at?

Ron paul made friends. So should we.

 

[Lucille]

That's because Stefan is our enemy and should be treated accordingly.He opposes

He opposes Ron Paul, he opposes civil disobedience, he gets up in front of a pro-liberty audience and tells them not to vote for people like Ron Paul, exc.

At the best, he's an absolute, total idiot.

Adam sure doesn't think so.
