BIZARRE ‘DANCE PARTY’ PROTEST AT JEFFERSON MEMORIAL ENDS WITH VIOLENT ARRESTS

Adam Kokesh is the man that Michelle Malkin called “an anti-war smear merchant in GOP clothing.”
He now hosts a “libertarian” TV show for Russia Today called “Adam vs. the Man.”
Nothing like a high-profile stunt to boost viewership.
Adam and company have professed outrage over the 2008 police action after a group of Libertarians stae a flash-mob dance event at the Jefferson Memorial. A later court ruling upheld police action:
In the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit’s opinion on the matter, Judge Thomas B. Griffith wrote that dancing in the memorial is “prohibited because it stands out as a type of performance, creating its own center of attention and distracting from the atmosphere of solemn commemoration that the Regulations are designed to preserve.”
“Outside the Jefferson Memorial, of course, Oberwetter and her friends have always been free to dance to their hearts’ content,” Griffith writes.
