Adam Vs The Man | With Your Host, Adam Kokesh | M-F 7pm E.T on RT America

On May28, 2011 Television host Adam Kokesh and several other activists participating in a flash-mob were arrested at the publicly-funded Thomas Jefferson Memorial. Their crime? Silently dancing, in celebration of the first amendment's champion; a clear violation of their right to free-expression. In an excessive use of force, video was captured of Adam being body slammed and placed in a choke for his non-crime.

U.S. District Judge John D. Bates ruled in a 26-page opinion this past Monday, based on a lawsuit stemming from the arrest of Mary Oberwetter who was silently dancing with a group of friends at the Memorial in celebration of TJ’s birthday in 2008, that the interior of the Memorial is not a public forum where people may dance, even if they are silently boogeying to music on headphones.

“The purpose of the memorial is to publicize Thomas Jefferson’s legacy, so that critics and supporters alike may contemplate his place in history,” Bates wrote. “The Park Service prohibits all demonstrations in the interior of the memorial, in order to maintain ‘an atmosphere of calm, tranquility, and reverence… Prohibiting demonstrations is a reasonable means of ensuring a tranquil and contemplative mood at the Jefferson Memorial,” the judge added.

This is an infringement on our right to express ourselves under the 1st Amendment. Bring your IPods! Remember, we want to be respectful of others who want to silently contemplate this great Founder who arguably best embodied the values and ideas of this country! Free your mind and your ass will follow!

One last thing, just to make everyone aware of the nature of these actions. It is an act of civil disobedience and could result in arrest. We hope this doesn’t happen, and are taking every possible action to avoid this, if possible, while exercising our Constitutionally guaranteed rights.

Wow. Do you guys seriously need any more proof that there's a global conspiracy and an attempt to transform this country into Nazi Germany?

This incident is unacceptable and should make people realize that this is not freedom.

Just boggles the mind

As does the countless other harmless acts that Big Government has banned. And you wonder why we don't wanna vote for MORE Big Government? I wonder why you still support it.

Meanwhile, the Democrat led and liberal government of Sullivan's Island, SC, have recently passed a law that bans singing. Yes, literally "singing", as in a song. Apparantly, residents got tired of hearing happy college girls from local College of Charleston jogging and walking to the beach, singing to their Ipods. So, the town was lobbied, and the left wing town council actually passed a ban on singing. Seriously.

And we're about to vote in more of this mindset in 2012.
 
Nobody wants to go to the Thomas Jefferson Memorial to watch a bunch of smelly hippies dance around.
 
  • Thanks

Do you have evidence that the people dancing quietly were smelly hippies? Anything to say about the police brutality? Body slamming then choking a man who was not resisting arrest in any way shape or form? Nothing?

Also, if you're in the area, get your dancing shoes on next week for an encore.

The way they dance stunk, and that guy was totally resisting.

There will be a encore body slam again too.

Who cares if the way they dance "stunk?" Where was he resisting? The part where he allowed himself to be slammed by that taxfeeder by keeping his hands in the air? Or when he sat there and allowed the brave thug to choke him?

The unanswered question by the uniformed police, was what law was being violated. Apparently none, so they were falsely arrested, not that I am surprised.

You just saw a demonstration of how some Americans with power will treat other Americans, in what is observed here as a police state.
