Adam Kokesh: Libertarian Super Genius Extraordinaire
What message should be sent? A registered letter to Obama thanking him for his service, but asking if he would politely leave, taking all his parasitic cohorts with him?
I think a message that doesn’t make libertarians look like stupid, loud, dangerous, and whiny gun nuts would be preferable. The absolute best case scenario is that this does not help the libertarian movement one iota. It’s a retarded idea and is the absolute nail in Kokesh’s intellectual coffin in my book… Also another +10 douchery points have been accumulated
Getting himself arrested again. The majority of people will think he’s insane for doing this. This achieves nothing, and predictably so, except making his own life worse, which means he doesn’t understand individualism.
Don’t follow this loudmouth attention seeker.
There is an intellectual pro gun freedom movement going on, and you can easily find it on Youtube, where gun experts are making their case for it and gaining hundreds of thousands of views often. Kokesh isn’t part of that group with these kind of antics and he is making others look bad.
That’s it? make youtube videos. My, yet another solution that miraculously doesn’t require leaving the house.
I’ve got bad news for you. You aren’t going to win any popularity contests regardles of what someone else does. I shouldn’t follow an anarchist, who is actually doing something, but I should win the favor of a bunch of TV addicts and sports slobs with chicken grease on their fingers? Yeah, that makes sense. For individualism I should appease the collective.
Don’t forget we will have to adjust for his score multiplier for each idiot who marches with him. Bonus points for injuries.
Can we please seriously calculate Kokesh’s douchery multiplier over the course of this event?

You’re making a fool out of yourself. Actually think about what this will accomplish, don’t just say that because you’re ann individualist doing something individualistic will make society more individualistic. Kokesh is leading a large group of people carrying firearms in an area where this is illegal (where isn’t it in a city street?) in front of the f***ing whitehouse. Yeah, this is going to attract a shit ton of people to libertarianism because so many Americans would blame the government for retaliating in this situation. Use your brain.
Reason 1: We appear to be rabid individualist survivalists
Reason 2: We appear to be classless rednecks
Reason 3: We appear to want violence over peace and discourse
Reason 4: It would be really easy to delegitimize the movement if the government or opposition just snuck in ONE person to cause trouble
Reason 5: Even if the govt and opponents are blameless, a criminal could take advantage of this.
We, we, we, we. I stumbled into the Zeitgeist forum again, dammit.
Oh and it’s scary. A big man with a gun is doing what the government doesn’t want him to. If you’re going to attach yourself to someone, choose someone you argee with. Adam Kokesh didn’t pick you as a disciple. Don’t elect him your spokesman.

I’m not sure if anyone here wants to be associated with Kokesh, but whether libertarians like it or not he is associated with them, both directly since he claims he is a “libertarian” and because regardless of this fact he is seen on the radical right. He is hurting himself and every other libertarian by doing what he is doing, and for that he is both immature, stupid, and not a “solution”. I’m not sure if you understand what is going on or if you’re just trying to show off how amazingly individualistic you are
I’d rather that he get arrested for shooting someone in self defense rather than getting arrested for merely violating a statist gun law.
Been on the Ron Paul Forums for the past hour debating people who are actually excited for this, thinking of it as a way for DC politicians to think twice about what they are doing and implement “reforms.” The notion that this would actually accomplish anything of lasting value is so absurd that it ought to be straight from the mind of Salvador Dali. Whatever there is to gain from this, it’s microscopic.
I think this is hilarious.
The libtards I know paint sidewalks, beg people to sign petitions on raw milk, and huddle together trying to build each others resume’s so that they can sell out as soon as they can. A.K.A. they are content with less than one percent of the voting public being on their side as painting sidewalks doesn’t demonstrate the severity of the concerns; it says we “found a fingerpainting activity that we can do together!” What does Mayer say, “Is there anyone who ever remembers changing their mind from the paint on a sign? - It’s not that we don’t care. We just know that the fight ain’t fair. So, we keep on waiting…”
I hope it doesn’t get out of control, but at the same time…Henry David Thoreau, Malcolm X, John Brown, and Thomas Jefferson, etc. (Really great americans, Hannity) would be for this. But, my guess is that it doesn’t even happen. he said he won’t do it without ten thousand people. If people realize the stakes they won’t do it; they’re not ready for it. Alex Jones appears to have reserved support for it as well.
No wonder the Russians had him on their channel, haha!! =P
I understand where you guys are coming from, but to be honest I dont care one way or the other. if somebody is that set on speaking truth to power, or whatever, and doing this, ok, go ahead. its not going to make “us” look like idiots to anyone who doesnt already think so.
