Corcaigh Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 “We’re fed up with just living on our knees,” Kokesh told WMAL. “We’d rather stand up on our feet and exert this fundamental right.” It's no wonder he does joint protests with Code Pink.

Mad Mike Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 THis is a seriously STUPID idea. A) Anyone who thinks that the Obama administration or the US in general is a tyrannical government is an idiot. All it would take is one nutcase to start shooting and we could have one of america's worst bloodbaths. And if you don't think inviting a bunch of hopped up libertarians eager to refresh the tree of liberty to bring loaded weapons into DC is going to bring a bunch of morons and people with their own agenda, you are the biggest idiot of all. That anyone thinks this is a good idea is mind boggling to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebluefood Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 All it would take is one nutcase to start shooting and we could have one of america's worst bloodbaths. That's what scares me most. This has the potential to be worse than the Chicago and D.C. riots combined. At least the rioters (for the most part) in those weren't armed). This, though, could set off something horrific.

GoSkins0721 Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 This has success written all over it: Loaded guns, angry people, hippies smoking weed, families enjoying the 4th of July festivities on the Mall, Federal cops, DC cops Mix it all up in 100 degree heat & humidity WTF could go wrong?

Larry Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 i was going to say,, usually an armed march on the Capital has a different name. Have fun storming the castle! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RansomthePasserby Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 THis is a seriously STUPID idea. Yeah. Totally cool plan: Hold a demonstration in DC in support of your right to bear arms. Really bad plan: Hold a demonstration in DC with an illegal premise so ONLY the crazies will show up. Sane people, who might have otherwise joined, will know how this movie ends and stay as far away as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan T. Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 If it's a felony to carry a loaded firearm in the District, and these guys get arrested and convicted, they will be felons who can longer legally possess firearms. As a result they'll have to give up their weapons or face Federal charges of Felon in Possession. ...silver lining and all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fewer nutcases with weapons, or on the streets and in the voting booths...maybe not such a bad result...as long no one gets ****ing shot. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bang Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 or conspiracy theory come true.. I wonder,, set up a march with angry people who already feel as if they're being enslaved by the government.. set up a march that could result in all of them being charged with felony and disarmed.. think of the propaganda they can get out of that, and how far it can go? How hard would it be to dupe people who have proven to be extremely gullible into starting an insurrection? ~Bang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 BTW, my opinions: 1) I think the folks doing this are loons. 2) And they should be allowed to demonstrate their lunacy. Just like Code Pink, the Nazis, PETA, and the Westborough Baptist Church. 3) And I think that predicting mass slaughter if they do this, is not quite as loony as predicting Obama confiscating all the guns in the US, but almost.

wysknz1 Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Just remember when the pro-gun crowd advocates they aren't criminals, Once they wander into DC with a firearm, they are then a criminal. And how many illegals are in the country that aren't considered "illegals" but undocumented. Mincing words is always fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. Rather surprised it took until page 3 before a single poster didn't dismiss the whole notion out of hand. The fact that off reading one paragraph everyone is ready for, advocating and expecting the National Guard to shut them down and arrest them all is far more disconcerting to me than the idea of the demonstration.

So...we should break the law and allow them to endanger tons of people just to let them demonstrate their lunacy? Assuming of course they don't get arrested or a good talking to long before then and the disaster in waiting is canceled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can march all they want, but the thing is... “Passing into the District of Columbia with loaded firearms is a violation of the law and we’ll have to treat it as such,” Metropolitan Police Department Chief Cathy Lanier Read more: http://www.politico.com/story/2013/05/armed-protesters-face-arrest-91022.html#ixzz2SeTPEY4Y What sucks now is that the idea is out there and now you know some people are going to be around the mall with loaded guns no matter what.

DC9 Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 http://media.avclub.com/images/393/393891/16x9/627.jpg?5800For the record, I don't usually bring it up, but I think when the new NRA President still references it as the "War of Northern Aggression" it's warranted. http://blog.seattlepi.com/seattlepolitics/2013/05/03/civil-war-war-of-northern-aggression-nra-president/ Is this an NRA event? EDIT: Don't get me wrong... this is beyond stupid. But you are seemingly jumping to a lot of conclusions on this. Pretty reactionary for a normally open-minded poster.
