Adam Kokesh and friends ridicule Washington.

Text from Youtube page:

In response to a recent wave of lemonade stand shut downs and harassment of children over such petty regulations as are used to shut them down, several activista gathered at the west lawn of the capitol in Washington, DC to sell lemonade and were arrested.  While the officers were technically on solid "legal" ground in shutting down the stand, they behaved inappropriately by any standard, using intimidation tactics on protestors and observers, and harassing members of the professional media.  The willingness with which children and tourists participated by purchasing lemonade in disobedience of the police instructions is an indicator of how little respect the general public has for government in general, and specifically police when enforcing unjust laws.
