It is illegal to openly carry a firearm, much less a loaded one, in the District of Columbia.
Kokesh initially planned to lead a July 4 march on Washington with loaded firearms to advocate for open carry and to put the government on notice. When he announced the original armed march on Washington, authorities thoroughly warned against it. But he later abandoned those plans in favor of raising an army of secessionist rallies held at state capitols.
Kokesh, who has also compared himself to Gandhi, has even implied violence as the end result. Should one whole year from this July 4th pass while the crimes of this government are allowed to continue, we may have passed the point at which non-violent revolution becomes impossible, he said in a statement.
The July 4 protests inspired by the gun activist were small in number and attendance. At one small protest in Concord, New Hampshire showed a man calling for a revolution with an assault rifle slung over his shoulder.

(3,601 posts)Armed people marching on Washington is NOT Civil Disobedience. It is INSURRECTION. The Army WILL put down Insurrection. Do you gun nuts think your AR-15 assault rifle knockoffs can defeat this?
If you do, you're stupider than I thought.
