“A D.C. Superior Court judge has ordered a veteran and activist accused of openly carrying a shotgun in D.C.’s Freedom Plaza held without bond. During a preliminary hearing Monday, an attorney representing Adam Kokesh argued that the stunt — filmed and posted on YouTube — was nothing more than political theater. The judge disagreed, ordering that Kokesh be held until his next court appearance. ‘I consider your client to be a very dangerous man,’ the judge said. ‘This is not a political statement.’ Kokesh had been arrested and charged with drug-related offenses in Fairfax County, Va., earlier in July. He is expected back in a D.C. courtroom Aug. 13.”
