Thankfully, Adam Kokesh failed to gather any support for his proposed armed march on Washington DC. Unfortunately, narcissism won over common sense, and he decided to make a one-man video for the true believers.

How many times do you think he practiced that routine in front of a mirror? Part of me expected him to shout “this is Sparta” at the end. He’s not so much a revolutionary as he is a low-rent McBain.
So, he’s committed at least one felony, and I’m sure law enforcement are going to investigate. To be honest, the best way to deal with Kokesh is to do what the gun culture has: ignore him. Sooner or later, he’ll get bored and find a different hobby. As long as anybody humors (or worse, prosecutes) him, he’ll be an icon to the cop baiters, the Free Keane potheads, and whatever other misguided distractions the Millenials are entertaining this week.
There’s a line between civil disobedience and simply being a dink to attract attention, and it’s really not all that fuzzy.
