Kokesh’s Virginia conviction

| June 13, 2014

Chief Tango sends us a link to the Washington Post which reports that, in Fairfax County, Virginia yesterday, Adam Kokesh, IVAW member, was convicted of drug and gun charges;

Kokesh, 32, entered an Alford plea in Circuit Court to two felonies related to his possession of hallucinogenic mushrooms while possessing a gun. In an Alford plea, a defendant does not admit guilt but acknowledges that prosecutors have enough evidence to obtain a conviction.

[…]

Prosecutors said Thursday that police found 10 guns and drugs, including LSD, marijuana, cocaine, ecstasy and mushrooms.

So he goes back to court in September for sentencing – he faces 15 years on those charges. He still on probation from his guilty plea in DC for loading a shotgun on the streets of that city for a video. I’ve watched Kokesh get arrested for his various antics no less than five times since he first came on our radar back in 2007. If my memory still serves me, these two arrests are the first time he was actually sentenced to anything. I guess he thought he was bullet proof and he kept upping the ante.

In response to a judge’s questions Thursday, Kokesh said he had “deliberately made an act of civil disobedience” by creating the video. But he said he had not anticipated that it would lead to the raid on his Snowflake Court home.

Yeah, well, his luck had to run out eventually.

DITTO, Ex-344MP, I also hope he and Thor pimp him out to the rest of their cell block every day and night!

He’s gonna learn how to “toss salad”, if you know what I mean…

There’s a saying among Ex-Convicts, and it’s “Only assholes get straightened out in prison.”:twisted:. Kokesh will soon find out how true that statement is, he’ll be *SQUUUUUEEEAAAALING* for Bubba, Thor, & Company in NO TIME.

NNNYYYYAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA…:twisted:

Just testing, :mrgreen: 😈

What bothers me the most is that so few represent so many.

For the Alliance!

Hondo

Am I the only one who sees proof here that the Deity has a sense of humor?

Living on “Snowflake Court” is IMO absolutely, poetically apropos for a special little snowflake like Kokesh who thinks the law doesn’t apply to him.

He’s about to find out the hard way that he really isn’t that special after all.

Madconductor

I was gonna say, “snowflake court?” How appropriate for this guy.

Veritas Omnia Vincit

Short bus special maybe Hondo, if he thought producing a video documenting illegal activity wouldn’t create probable cause he definitely lacks normal cognitive ability.

Guess he missed those anti-drug commercials with the fried eggs…

There is an appropriate forum for civil disobedience, but adding controlled substances and firearms to the mix is a fairly unwise combination under any circumstances.

Snowflake Court is just off Sparkle Pony Drive and across the street from the Skittle Shitting Unicorn Dry Cleaners.

You can’t miss it.

ChipNASA

Came here to say something similar….

BBBWWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAH
*gasp*
BBBWWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAH

/done and done.

Well, if it’s the Snowflake Court in Herndon, VA (which is in Fairfax County) – Google Maps says it’s less than 1/2 mile away from the Herndon Police Station. That might have something to do with why they paid him a visit shortly after his little rant with his shotgun in DC.

ExHack

Took it right out of my mouth, or, er, off my keyboard.

Hondo

I wonder what the chances are he’ll show up for sentencing?

Hayabusa

Based on his comments the other day, hopefully he doesn’t shoot any police officers when they come to take him into custody.

Old Trooper

2 felonies, eh? Now he will never be able to legally buy, or possess, a firearm for the rest of his life. Dumbass.

2/17 Air Cav

He’s 32 and facing sentencing on multiple felonies related to drugs? He’s another example, like that pointy-faced Marine Recon poser in another thread, of life passing by some people. They are, as one judge put it in sentencing a defendant years ago, relegated to the junkheap of humanity. Any story regarding Kotex hereafter should begin thusly: “Convicted felon Adam Kokesh….”

CWORet

Absolutely. Love the Wash-com-Posts headline: “Va. court convicts gun rights activist Adam Kokesh”. So much for that career as a ‘Gun rights activist’. Guns, a wide variety of narcotics, and civil disobedience. Awesome combination there. Guaranteed to get results. Play stupid games…
Then he plays the Blue Falcon card with “He said he had been “singled out for political purposes” by authorities, pointing out that his roommates had not been charged.” I’ll be greatly anticipating his sentencing.

Hondo

Well, CWORet – “Va. court convicts drug-addled idiot Adam Kokesh” just doesn’t have the same resonance with the WaPo’s rapidly shrinking audience. So they kinda need to stick with what sells papers to those few remaining subscribers, accuracy be damned.

NavCWORet

What I hate is the lead in sentence the Post uses:
“Gun rights activist Adam Kok­esh…..”

Now they’ve lumped him in with those who legitimately lobby for the rights of gun owners and he becomes the poster child for gun grabbers everywhere.

Azygos

Well he does have a point. When was David Gregory’s sentencing hearing for his conviction of possessing an illegal 30 round magazine on NBC’s Meet the Depressed?

2/17 Air Cav

That happened the same day Gregory’s home was raided and they pulled all of the CDS from it. Yes, it was technically illegal what Gregory did. I don’t insist that I be issued a ticket when the cop who pulled me over wants to give me a pass.

As we all know the only ting Kokesh really advocates for is Kokesh. Anything to keep his silly mug in the public eye. He’s a first class attention whore. Pretty ironic that he lived in Snowflake Court. I’ll bet the entrance has a unicorn fountain that farts rainbows.

A Proud Infidel®

I wouldn’t be surprised if it had a fountain with a sculpture of a unicorn farting rainbow glitter and shitting Skittles while it’s fucking Smurfette up her ass!

Nicki

Uhhhhh…. I didn’t think my act of provocation would provoke someone to respond!

Sparks

Kokesh is a self promoter. He just self promoted himself into some big times inside. I’m sure the boys in prison with him will leave him alone because he “stood up to the man”. Yea, that will happen…when pigs fly.

Green Thumb

Later, loser.

Word of advice: Keep your pants up.

At this point in time, I shall enjoy telling Adam “The Man” Kokesh, you better get your bedside manners and personal matters in check, pal. *click-click* again, bitch…You live on Snowflake Court? Now that right there is downright funny, don’t care who you are.

jonp

“Adam vs The Man” huh…More like “Adam Does The Man and The Man’s buddy and his buddies friends and the cleaning guy and a couple of guards….”

ExHack

You know, there are gay porn flicks with that exact plot line. Jes’ sayin’.

ByrdMan

Mr. Kokesh loves the freedoms he has to protest, to assemble, to rail against what he beleives to be a flawed system. However, for some reason can’t get it thorough his thick skull that by living in the U.S., he is obliged to abide by its laws, even though he may consider those laws unjust. He should spend more time reading Plato and Locke and less time perusing “Constitutional Law for Dummies”.
