ADAM KOKESH UPDATE jan. 13th

[purplechoe]

I wish him luck, he did a lot of good just simply speaking to people, he's a very good communicator...

 

[TomtheTinker]

Men like Adam give me hope.

 

[QuickZ06]

I just texted him. He asks that if you live in the area, please go stand by him. If you know someone who lives in the area, ask them to go.

He's got an important announcement to make on Friday, so stand by.

He was a little surprised to learn he has supporters on this forum.

Well that is a bit collectivists. Has more balls than I do to do what he did, even though it should not even matter. Free country.

Tell him Good luck for me please and stay strong.

As it relates to the instant offense, he does not accept full responsibility because he feels it is his right to protest and he has no remorse, as he has a significant history of engaging in staged political agitation. … A forensic psychiatric evaluation is recommended based on a history and his recent criminal behavior.

So did this legal/medical template come straight from the old Soviet Union? Welcome to the USSA.

The defendant’s criminal history dates back to 2005 and is high in severity, and is a risk factor for the defendant. The fact that the defendant conspired with others to smoke marijuana in front of the White House and travel to load a rifle on Washington, D.C. property knowing that it is illegal and remains loyal to his cause, shows his immaturity and lack of discipline which are severe risk factors. It appears that the defendant goes around callously engaging in staged political agitation without giving it a second thought. And he continues to exhibit this repetitive behavior with minimal consequences. He has shown time and time again that he is a danger and has made a decision not to adhere to a law abiding regimen within society. Since he has actively professed to refuse to obey certain laws, demands, and commands of a government, a split sentence is warranted.


a danger???


So Political Agitation equals DANGER. Lock him up. He refuses to OBEY COMMANDS of the GOVERNMENT. So he needs to be put away...


Can you get anymore clear about how the gov't will treat you if you DO NOT OBEY THEIR COMMANDS? Even if there is no victim, you did NOT OBEY. Therefore, you will be caged as you are a DANGER.



Yet our psychopath heroes in blue can murder rape and steal, but since they do it with a badge approved by the gov't...they may continue.

Holy shit - you know the guy well enough to be able to text him? I envy you. I really admire the guy, and have shown his :24s video to friends, family, and acquaintances since he posted it. I then tell folks what happened because of the stand he took. It really opens eyes and minds. May I ask a favor of you, DebK?

Will you please let him know that my two year old son knows who Adam Kokesh is, and that in our household, Adam is as revered as, say, Benjamin Franklin or the Sons of Liberty? And that this foul-mouthed lapsed Christian knelt with his wife and child tonight, praying to merciful Christ that he might bless Adam with a favorable outcome?

The man is a victim, DebK. I'm pretty sure that many minds here agree. Here's hoping he does not become a martyr as well.

Also, let him know we also prayed that the folks who invaded his home and closed off his neighborhood, as though he was some great threat, be infested with the fleas of 1,000 camels. God was always big on that shit in the Old Testament...

I have been a Kokesh fan and supporter for years now. He is the reason I do not visualize anarchists with bombs or trying to overthrow the govt. Lol!
Seriously, much respect to him and the bestest of luck! He needs to be paid not jailed.

Seriously. Read Rothbard's Conceived in Liberty.
Seems ol' Ben was a wily, two-faced snake on the make.

Collectivist?? Uhh...I think you may be confused about what collectivism is.

I'll let him know your sentiments. I've known him since '08 when he contacted me about Revolution March wanting to speak at it. I also invited him to speak at P.A.U.L. Festival, which sparked a great deal of controversy and apparently really pissed Jesse Benton off (since there is bad blood between them). I consider him a friend and although I don't agree with everything he does, and even get pissed off at him at times, I love Adam and I regard him as the Sam Adams of our time.

That "Presentencing Report" (here is the original - https://www.facebook.com/ADAMVSTHEMAN/posts/10151826998216260) is so telling of a run away government hell bent on conformity, it is scary...

And yes, the last paragraph reveals just how much they are demanding compliance...

… The defendant’s criminal history dates back to 2005 and is high in severity, and is a risk factor for the defendant. The fact that the defendant conspired with others to smoke marijuana in front of the White House and travel to load a rifle on Washington, D.C. property knowing that it is illegal and remains loyal to his cause, shows his immaturity and lack of discipline which are severe risk factors. It appears that the defendant goes around callously engaging in staged political agitation without giving it a second thought. And he continues to exhibit this repetitive behavior with minimal consequences. He has shown time and time again that he is a danger and has made a decision not to adhere to a law abiding regimen within society. Since he has actively professed to refuse to obey certain laws, demands, and commands of a government, a split sentence is warranted.

So if you want to "remain loyal to your cause", which in fact takes discipline and maturity, they say you "are immature and lack discipline" - to conform to their pretense.

"staged political AGITATION" is wrong... and it is assumed to be knee jerk because you are crazy for not conforming when you don't "give it a second thought." No agitators / non conformists are allowed in a "free" society.

"minimal consequences" for repetitive behaviors are not enough..... Animals need reinforcement in their training and more severe correction if the current training is not enough.

"he is a danger"

In Summary:

Repetitive staged political agitation is a danger to the law abiding regimen within society. He will not be broken to the demands and commands of a government as the minimal consequences are not enough. We must increase the punishment to obtain complete servitude in our "free" society.

You are as free as we tell you you are....

This is the Adam I know and love!

Ok, thanks, I will. One of the reasons I love it here so much is that folks like you help me to become more educated. College isn't going to teach me this stuff. I'd like to think that I've studied Franklin - read his letters, several biographies, source documents - but saying I can't learn more is, well, ignorant. So, genuinely, thank you. I will look that up. I have come to view Franklin as a very flawed man to say the least, but one who was always open to new ideas and interpretations of old ones. In those regards, I can see parallels between Kokesh and Franklin.

But come to think of it, lumping Kokesh, Franklin, and the Sons of Liberty together might not have been the brightest thought I had yesterday. I can't see Franklin donning a costume and chucking tea into the harbor, but I do know that he sanctioned piracy against the British in the course of the Revolution, as we had no navy to speak of. He was always willing to bend, or ignore outright, accepted social mores and conventions. Ah...maybe all this talk belongs in a different thread - after I've brought myself up to speed!

I wasn't going to say a thing in this thread, Deb, but that wasn't when it started and you know it. Adam blamed losing his internet TV show with RT on Benton; instead of holding his own butt accountable. Then, he proceeded to start attacking everyone in Ron's campaign and in the end, participated in attacking Ron himself. I will stop there.

That said, I do hope he gets out of this mess he is in. He certainly doesn't deserve to be in prison.

Doesn't he have an account here? Why would he be surprised?

 

[Adam Kokesh]

Thanks for all the support, everyone! The Independence Day action was successful beyond my wildest dreams and we were able to reach millions through the mainstream media coverage on Fox, CNN, and an absurd amount of coverage on local TV. Every time I went to court (at least a dozen times) while I was locked up, they played the original video and lots of inmates saw it. I did, however, naively underestimate the potential costs to myself, but I'm happy to pay the price for such powerful outreach. The greatest cost was not going to jail (it was far easier than combat in Fallujah in 2004) but being abandoned and betrayed by those who I thought had my back. I was openly attacked by many self-proclaimed liberty enthusiasts and my team stole my legal defense fund, (about $25k in donations) lied to the public in my name, stole all the money from my personal bank account, (a few $k) got me evicted from my home and caused damages for which I owed my landlord $24k, then stole most of my valuable personal possessions including paintings, tapestries, and a rug from Iraq, irreplaceable family heirlooms, and computers and other studio equipment. Since my TV show was cancelled, I've never taken a salary from AVTM because everything possible was reinvested into the business, in many ways poorly due to the problems with my business plan which have been addressed in my plans for relaunch. Forgive me for collectivizing the members of RPF, but I've never been so slandered and consistently demeaned by any other part of the movement and haven't checked in here for a long time. (Even now, LibertyEagle has to jump in and lie about what I've said. I would think such an esteemed member of this community would have a little more commitment to the truth, especially repping "Paleoconservative.") I only saw this thread because Deborah K asked me to read it. If you want to support me, please get people to come out Friday, and if you can't be there, be ready to share an announcement about relaunching AVTM or donate today at adamvstheman.com.

Stay strong man, I can't be there this week.


THANK YOU

I never even implied, that it started then. Sorry you took it that way.

 

[LibertyEagle]

Hello Adam. There were no lies in what I said. I remembering being very sad that you would stoop so low. I had admired you at one point.

I wish you well.

You really have to ask that? Haven't you ever noticed how viciously he gets attacked here, at times?
