Another one of the epic moments from a historic day.
Another outrageous example of our living in a police state. As a photographer I feel so strongly that citizens should be free to document our police force. I’ve been arrested for “shooting” cops in action. ~ Lo
I don’t have anything to say here. I hope the video says it all.

On Nov. 3, 2007, Adam Kokesh shared his views on the Iraq War, his strategies for ending the conflict, and his pro-Peace activism, at an event held at St. Philip’s Episcopal Church, in Annapolis, MD. Mr. Kokesh is the co-chair of the Iraq Veterans Against the War, See, IVAW.org. During the Q&A period that followed his talk, he told the audience that he was, on a personal level, “a Ron Paul supporter!” Rep. Paul is the Republican congressman from Texas, who is an candidate for president on the GOP side. Mr. Kokesh, a former U.S. Marine Sergeant, added that he was also “a big fan of [Rep. Dennis J.] Kucinich,” the congressman from Ohio. Rep. Kucinich is running for president, too, under the banner of the Democratic Party. Mr. Kokesh’s talk was cosponsored by the Student Peace Action Network (SPAN) and the Anne Arundel Peace Action, See, http://www.studentPeaceAction.org and http://www.Peace-Action.org, with the support of activist Kevin Zeese of DemocracyRising.US.
