Adam Kokesh, Medea Benjamin & Far Left Loons Slammed to Ground & Arrested After Holding Illegal Dance Protest
Posted by Jim Hoft on Sunday, May 29, 2011, 7:04 AM
Far left loons Adam Kokesh and Code Pink commie loons were arrested for holding an illegal dance protest at the Jefferson Memorial in Washington DC.
Several of the far left loons were slammed to the ground during the police action.
This was great.
Via Breitbart TV:
Of course, these far left loons want you to believe that they were the innocent victims. There’s obviously more to this story.

Here is that “more to the story”:

EXCERPT:
“In April 2008, a group of less than 20 young people came to the memorial as part of a flash mob where they would dance to music played through their headphones.
U.S. Park Police then told the dancers to leave, and eventually arrested one woman on misdemeanor charges, Mary Oberwetter.
Oberwetter fought the charges in court, arguing that dancing was protected free speech, and noting that groups of noisy school children are routine at the memorial.
She lost that case, with the courts agreeing that the U.S. Park service has a duty to maintain decorum at the nation’s monuments, and no demonstrations are allowed inside the monuments.
Earlier this month, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia upheld the earlier decision.”

If I was one of those visitors, I would sue code pink for the disruption of money and time they took away from my holiday because of their disgraceful protest. Hit them back in the wallet and they won’t be able to afford all these trips.
That’s my suggestion?

That put a smile on my face.

Medea was in Egypt during the turmoil. she was in a cab and itwas commandeered by the “Democracy” group and she was to be taken somewhere. But some shopkeepers and Egyptian military intervened and sprung her. there were a lot of folks from Us worjing overthere to destabilize Mubarak.It is the great untold story.
this dance thing at the Jefferson is more Alinsky tents, confuse the middle class and use their mores and laws against them
Cat lady commented:
Way to go Park Police. You all handled all of that ridculousness in the proper way. #4. You are right. That is what happened to the KKK. They were sued & soon money was tight
daryl commented:
Go home Medea Benjamin and stop acting like an oversexed poodle on your boy friend’s leg in public.The media doesn’t smile on your antics anymore under obama’s watch, so you have nothing to gain but time in jail.
Let these code pinko sicko freaks get away with this and next thing they will bring hot dog buns, weiners and marshmallows, build campfires and hold an outdoor cookouts there and over at Old Abe’s Memorial too.

Hahaha. KARMA!!!

what a bunch of pampered fools…
Joe Camel commented:
It seems one would weigh “what” they will look like on a video or YouTube site when posted, and is your message being observed as you wish. In this case, it most assuredly did not, and worked against their agenda. Much like shoving a camera in one’s face, then being upset when they react in a negative manner. What has the world come to, when everything done is for “entertainment”?
YeahRight commented:
Sometimes you just loose it Jim…makes me wonder what your thoughts are on the Constitution and Bill of Rights.
Here is a short bio of Adam Kokesh:
ADAM VS THE MAN gives the millennial generation a new voice and a new sense of empowerment. By challenging authority, host Adam Kokesh reveals the reality of a government based not on protecting the freedoms of the American people, but exploiting them for the sake of the real power brokers and banksters who work behind the scenes. But it’s not just about politics, it’s about living like a free, dignified human being, living like government doesn’t exist, and loving it. Adam’s experience as a United States Marine and Republican Congressional candidate make him uniquely qualified to take down the man behind the curtain.
Hey Jim…tell me where he is a left wing loon? Matter of fact please call me one prior to knowing anything about me.
Josh commented:
They remind of a little kid who was told by his mommy not to pull on the tail of the neighbor’s dog. So the little kid says defiantly, “Na Na Na boo boo…. I am gonna grab the dog’s tail because I want to!”
And the dog bit the little kid.
miar commented:
What a disgrace, first off, one of the guys has on a shirt that says “Disobey” – was there any doubt that he was there to cause trouble? And the fool saying “I have a broken shoulder” – give me a break!!!! You sure looked OK as you were taunting the police. Liberals are such a joke, I wish they could see themselves through the eyes of people with common sense, they would be MORTIFIED.

Dinah commented:
It is ironic when they start mouthing off about it being America and free speech, when they are the ones that hate America and free speech. They support all kinds of government where free speech is not allowed, yet they very quickly rememver free speech when it suits them.
Jerry commented:
I’m quite sure the vast majority of Americans would whole-heartedly support the Park Police if they simply beat the dog sh** out of these filthy dirty societal rejects.
They provide no value to society-at-large and should be dealt with like one deals with his garbage after a family meal.
Dewormer commented:
I’m probably against the grain here, but I’d have a whole lot more sympathy and support for these nutbags if they weren’t always disrupting the tea party’s attempts to speak. There probably are quite a few of us that would join the opposition to police thuggery, but they’ve failed to extend the respect to others.
If you’re a lefty reading this, tell your friends to respect the speech you don’t like. You’d be surprised how you’ll find libertarians, anarchists and post-anarchists who would stand by your side and support your speech, even when we completely disagree with it.

Look at the actions of this punk and those of his cohorts….do they jibe with his “words and his mission”???
I hardly think so. he is a street punk, plain and simple.
Joe College commented:
That’s, like, soooo 1968.
an observer commented:
Not enough billy clubs, pepper spray, or taser use. The cops were too gentle. Code Pink gave $600,000 to Al Qaeda during fallujah. While Marines like my son were fighting (and some were dying), these traitors were giving aid and comfort to the enemy.
Guest #7 commented:
What is going on is, your loony commie ideas are epically failing.
dnb commented:
#18: Police thuggery? I would have stood and applauded those officers had I been there.
And Benjamin Medea pleading, “I don’t understand.” Anyone who has “protested” as often as she does should well understand what’s she’s doing, unless she’s just plain stupid.
joscefi commented:
“…THIS IS A POLICE STATE, THIS IS A POLICE STATE….”
In a real Police State, he’d have started his self important chant, then he’d have mumbled the rest of it through broken teeth, before being hauled away, never to be seen again.
Key West Reader commented:
Things are escalating. This is NOT a good sign.
chuck in st paul commented:
Just more infantile ‘me-ism’ in action. The whole flash mob thing is just infantile acting out with a does of ‘look at me’. The cops WERE really cool headed in this. A hat tip to the Park Police.
When are the adults coming home?
donh commented:
No and you can’t have an open air public orogy in the rotunda or use the setting to film a porn flick either. These are the kind of insane lunatics found in Ward 8 of the snake pit…. http://youtu.be/PwmOjhbV2RE

Maybe they should try that dance inside a mosque and see if they’re treater nicer.
sandy commented:
Wonder how this mob of lefty loons would act if The Muslim Brotherhood said no dancing? They don’t give 20 warnings before firing on people. Ain’t it great being American where you can make an utter fool of yourself?
Kevin commented:
Yet deputies in Tucson shoot a guy pointing an AR-15 at them and you are ready to give them all a lethal injection. This would be my confused face.
And yeah, I applaud what the Parks Police did too. In fact a little pain compliance hold would have shut that nut boy up really quick. Oh, for the days of old school policing like I was trained.
Dave-O commented:
In a real police state, little nut boy would have been hauled away in the back of a police van never to be seen or heard from again. His family would have been charged for the bullet used to kill him.
Ashen commented:
Terrible abuse of freedom by the cops, typical. They never question orders. Simple mindless dogs of the state.
Federale commented:
Too bad that loudmouth did not get some pepper spray. That would have shut him up.

The Park and Capital police in DC are very professional and demonstrate it by their calm conduct in this video. Personally, I’d prefer to see these vile vermin in the hands of the Syrian or Iranian paramilitary, however brief the interval between detention and interment.

Don’t forget about his court marital for bringing weapons back from his short trip overseas or his various arrests for his anti war activities. As far as him weaseling his way into an election under the Repub banner, how did that work out for him? For those that don’t know he got beat in the primary managing to get slightly more votes then the write in candidate for dog catcher. Kokesh if just fat dope smoking frat boy who didn’t get hugged by his mommy enough and now lashes out in a vain attempt to get attention.
cj_thespook commented:
LMAO this is rich, I loved it hahahhahaha…and these fools go around bashing America, aid our enemy in killing American soldiers, give speeching for enlisted to kill their commanding officers, stand out side of Walter Reed hosiptial and harrass our military members who are recovering from war, and yet they scream this is America, chant about THEIR freedoms but yet they are a bunch of commie bastard war criminals who provoked this arrest. What a bunch of panty waste whinny ass babies. GO TO HELL CODE PINKO!!!! I hope these piece of s**ts waste in jail…

Just because you want all standards of behavior dropped doesn’t mean the rest of the country agrees with you. These publicity-seeking pukes are no different than the Phelps clan protesting funerals and trying to get arrested.

This was likely a stunt in hopes of getting arrested.
Adirondack Patriot commented:
They plan on doing it again on June 4th. Here is their link:

Can we send them the bill for costs of arrests and jail food and transportation costs and processing costs?

Land of opportunity. Land of many ways to got jail by stupid “laws”. Dont bring your laws to rest of the world. Just keep them in to your country and suffer them for yourself!

THAT is Freedom FOR ALL. Not eveyone doing what they want whenever they want regardless of the rights of others.
They are dreaming of anarchy where NO ones rights are protected from others…that is freedom for no one
wanumba commented:
Susan Benjamin is a lying sneak who chose the name of a murderous witch for her nic. She’s got a child’s squeak, a teenager’s wardrobe and an old hag’s body, with a black soul she hides with pink.
The way these guys manipulate every word, every action, TRAINED to set their subversiveness deliberately against the overall civility of our nation, our people , our law enforcement is pure, vile evil.
They try that in any other country and would get beaten, really beaten. They KNOW our society isn’t what they claim, yet they are obsessed with wrecking it anyway. Evil.
Money sources: their groups are getting larger, they show up coast to coast, in other countries, so that means more expenses, more training. WHO’s funding them?
wanumba commented:
For once we can thank Code Pink for being helpful to law enforcement. We all got to see their staged tactics, how they taunt police, how they set up disobeying rules of the venue, and their various techniques in resisting arrest. Very useful insight for the rest of us. Nicely filmed, in focus, clear sound.
The prosecutor should find that helpful even though it seems that Code Pink doesn’t make a single scriptued move without vetting it thru their agitator lawyers.
Joel commented:
Good.
Rebellious Kafir commented:
I dont understand, what was their purpose? Were they testing police responce?
Stacey commented:
Really! Who needs that stupid Constitution thing that allows free speech and expression.
hbooo commented:
maybe we should set up the TSA at the memorial so that they could feel everybody up before they go in. They we would know they werent terrorists.
check out Adam Kokesh in his movie roll. Who knew he had such good dance moves.

Tommy commented:
So y’all agree that our monuments should be First Amendment Free zones? I don’t care what you think about the protesters’ behavior or their psychological makeup, that’s what you must be agreeing with.
DG commented:
It requires incredible selfishness and naiveté to believe that one’s constitutionally protected freedoms give one license to exercise them without regard for the rights of others. The inside of the Jefferson Memorial and other such places have long been designated as off-limits to organized protests or demonstrations.
Really?? commented:
Wow. You guys like free speech only when you like the message. What part of the constitution are you ready to tear up when you don’t like the people that are being arrested for dancing? I guess you are showing your true tea party colors. It shows how much you really believe in rights. NOT!
Kevin W. Clark commented:
You lot would make Thomas Jefferson *sick*. You police-loving sycophantic cowards wouldn’t know bravery and having the courage of your convictions if it reached up and bit you. Swaying, kissing, bouncing? YOU PANTY-WAISTS ARE AFRAID OF THIS KIND OF “PROTEST”? I would have liked to have seen that crowd rise up and teach those cops a lesson that they would never forget. Choke them a little. Taze them a little. Slam them around and break their arms. All I hear conservatives whine about is how “Obama is a fascist” wuh wuh wuh…but then something like this happens, where anyone with an ounce of intellectual curiosity can see the police were being thugs and fascists, and suddenly THAT’S OK. Thomas Jefferson HATES you.
Rhinestone Suderman commented:
Because, of course, it’s just so thuggish, and facistic, for the police to try and keep order in a public place.
I’d like to take my glockenspiel to the Lincoln monument, and play it 24/7, while emitting loud, piercing screams from time to time, to protest something or other! It’s free speech! If anyone complains, or if security hauls me away, it’s just mean ol’ facism, because my right to make a spectacle of myself trumps everybody else’s right to enjoy a public place!
/Sarc. off.
Rhinestone Suderman commented:
Because public places should be co-opted by protesters, and those who want to show off their good dance moves! It’s not like they’re places where the public can gather, to honor great men, or to think about the past! Nope, they’ve got to be little theaters where protesters can protest all day long if they like, driving everybody away, and where we can all be wowed by their dance moves, giant puppets and drum playing—kind’ve a leftwing version of “American Idol.”
/Sarc. off again.
JG commented:
AK is not a ‘lefty’ and most of the people posting here are the loons. Ever heard of Civil Disobedience? I guess you’d shout at Rosa Parks too. OK, the ’cause’ is not as important, but the SPIRIT is.
I don’t personally have a problem with the rule against dancing in the memorial – to me it is like a museum and I don’t want a flashmob disrupting me in a museum.
BUT
We don’t get to decide for one another what constitutes an unjust law. You are free to protest yours, I am free to protest mine, and so forth.
Rhinestone Suderman commented:
So let’s just barge in to all public places, and protest there! Let’s start with public libraries. It really isn’t fair that they don’t let people dance on the tables there, and sing, and play tubas, without some mean old librarian telling us to stop, so let’s all march in there and dance, and blat away on tubas, and disrupt the place! It’s our right to protest—never mind the fact that others are being harassed, and forced to leave a library their tax dollars helped pay for! WE don’t like that rule, so WE have the right to take the place over! Because it’s just not FAAAIIRRRRRRRR if we can’t!
/Sarc. Again.
Also, I happen to believe that slavery is a good thing, and how dare the laws of the United States decide for me that I can’t own slaves? How dare a lot of people I don’t even know decide it’s unjust?
/Do I really need one?
Rhinestone Suderman commented:
Also, Wanumba in Post #49 makes some very good points: Code Pink’s protests are never really about “civil disobedience”, “freedom of speech”, or any of that whitewash; they’re Marxists, they’re always pushing their own agenda—and it has nothing to do with freedom, or saving us from the big bad bankers, or the eeeevil Zionists—don’t fall for their hype.
And who is funding them, and providing their lawyers, and their training?
Rhinestone Suderman commented:
I suppose we should just be glad they didn’t bring along patch Adams, and his giant BVD’s: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YaAlQ6ZMGHI
AnnS commented:
Doesn’t Rand and Ron Paul support Adam Kokesh? Just asking
Rhinestone Suderman commented:
Like we’re really supposed to believe these guys were suffering horribly, because they couldn’t dance at the Jefferson Memorial? Like, they had no other places to dance, and protest?
Who’se paying for them? Who’se training them?
bob commented:
I find it remarkably interesting that all comments condone not only what the police did but also the way it was done. Pardon me, there are a few dissenters who disagree for the sole reason of not enough force being used.
Either this site and comment section is moderated or I have wandered into a strange abyss of common sense.
Adam Ro commented:
These guy give liberals a bad name. I’m liberal and I think their behavior was disgraceful. The video shows them resisting arrest so they got muscled some. The cops did what they needed to to subdue these fools.
