Kokesh served
According to WTTG, Fox5DC, the Park Police and Herndon, VA police served a search warrant at Adam Kokesh’s residence last night;
FOX 5 has confirmed that U.S. Park Police along with Herndon Police are serving a search warrant at the home of Adam Kokesh, a pro-gun activist who was seen on a YouTube video posted on July 4th loading a shotgun in Freedom Plaza.
Roads have been blocked off in the area of the 1500 block of Snow Flake Court in Herndon and residents have been told to stay indoors while police serve the warrant.

D.C. Police Chief Lanier told us on July 4th, “You’re allowed to have a rifle [or] shotgun registered for your home, if you’re a D.C. resident and it’s registered for the protection of your home. You can transport it through the District of Columbia as well. But there are rules for that transport. What [Kokesh] did [Thursday] morning, if in fact that was a real firearm [with] real ammunition, would be a violation of the law.”

DC’s NBC4 is reporting that Kokesh was arrested last night and that he’s cooling his heels in jail;
A gun rights activist who loaded a shotgun in downtown D.C. was arrested in fairfax County.
The home of Adam Kokesh was searched by police late Tuesday evening.
Fairfax County police say Kokesh is being held at the Fairfax County Detention Center. There’s no word on what charges he faces.
According to their broadcast news show, Kokesh was arrested on drug charges as well as gun charges. This is my surprised face.
Not supporting Kokesh or anything, but I wonder if anyone searched David Gregory’s residence after he broke DC gun laws.

Seems to me that Kokesh will have ample grounds for appeal over the Gregory non-arrest.
The equal protection clause, et al.
I wonder if Kokesh is still working for Obama?
My level of caring about this guy is somewhere between nil and non-existent.
It does not matter that the weapon or ammo may not be real or live. I am sure that they can make a brandishing or menacing charge apply. Whatever the charge, I would consider a suspended sentence with a stipulation banning firearm ownership to be “Justice”.
You need a search warrant for a refrigerator box?
Sorry, sorry…couldn’t resist.
Couldn’t happen to a nicer idiot . . . .
Don’t think there’s anyone on the political spectrum, right or left, that this man hasn’t ticked-off…
Douche. Bag.
THIS makes me smile.
Poke the Bear.
Duh.
“Not supporting Kokesh or anything, but I wonder if anyone searched David Gregory’s residence after he broke DC gun laws.”
That’s the first thing I thought of, too.
Hypocrites
Adam “Bong Hit” Kokesh.
How does this guy make his money for bail?
@10 Hopefully the shitbag doesn’t make bail.
His fellow travelers will post his bail, E8Ret.
I hope David Gregory is covering this….
Losers.
What a dumbass. Couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy. Burn in Hell you twit, good job poking the Bear.
Reading the article linked at Drudge from the WaPo, I find it hilariously appropriate that Kokesh lives on “Snow Flake Court.”
Oh yeah, and the drugs in question? ‘Shrooms…imagine that.
Hey, Country! I think you just gave Kokesh a brand, spanking new nickname! “Snow Flake”! Ehehehehehehehe……..
@17 “Snow Flake Kokehead”… Works for me.
