'Idle No More' Activist Busted for Molotov Threat at Wisconsin Capitol
Breitbart ^ | by Brandon Darby 16 Jan 20 | by Brandon Darby

A Wisconsin activist was arrested Tuesday at the state Capitol building just hours before Governor Scott Walker was to deliver his State of the State Address to Wisconsin lawmakers.

The man, Kvon R. Smith, had reportedly used Facebook to threaten to do harm at the Capitol. Law enforcement was ready for him and arrested him as he attempted to enter the building. Smith then reportedly claimed to have a Molotov cocktail in his backpack. Police evacuated portions of the capitol building and a bomb squad reportedly arrived and handled the backpack. Police did not say whether or not the backpack contained the explosive device the man allegedly claimed it did.

A search of the man’s apparent Twitter account reveals deep sympathies for Palestinians, support for other liberal and far-left causes, and claims of previous felony charges. Smith has also expressed support for the newest leftist movement, which previous Occupy supporters are beginning to flock to, named "Idle No More." Less than 24 hours before being arrested, Smith stated on Facebook: "I'm in support of the Idle No More Movement."

Two hours after writing his support for the new activist movement, Smith posted this video on what authorities verify is his Facebook showing the bottles he claims to have intended to take to the Wisconsin Capitol building.

If Obama had a son, he would look like Mr. Smith.

activist = liberal extremist, although he could be a “cracktivist” given his mugshot.....

Seriously? Idle No More Movement? That's just what we need right now. Self described "super intelligent" looking guys like this telling us how to run our country, because they're so much smarter than we are.
Sheesh! They've GOT to be kidding!
It's time to pass open carry laws country wide. These people are mentally ill. We have a right to defend ourselves.

“...Why is it that violent mental cases who push a lefty agenda are called activists but anyone else would be called a terrorist?...”

Ummm...maybe the King has decreed it to be so. He can’t have his supporters running around labeled as “terrorists”...

But it is the TEA Party that gets the rap for violence.

Good point, vigilanteman. Control the lexicon, amplify the agenda, move the masses. If Barack had a son...

Well, peace is violence, and violence is peace. Get it now?

Amazingly enough the story in our local papers doesn’t include the picture of the bomber standing with Tammy Baldwin for a picture.

You mean this one?

I think Baldwin is probably wackier than the would-be bomber. Wait ‘til American gets a load of her in congress.
