I'm sure Alex Jones has been arrested lots of times for disturbing the peace or similar offenses, it's no big deal. If he just stood on the sidewalk shouting at people he would have been fine, but he chose to disturb traffic and force his own arrest to appear as a victim of the police state and military industrial complex.
The History Channel had a show about the Troofers and they interviewed Alex Jones. He compared himself to Galileo who got in trouble for "proving that the earth is not flat." Oh but wait, Galileo actually got in trouble for saying the earth is not the center of the universe. OOOOOOOOooops. Maybe he needs to demand a reinvestigation of Galileo since the Chuch apparently arrested him on false charges. Because you know Alex Jones is freakin genious and if he says it was over the earth being a ball then that is what Galileo was working to prove. NOT that the sun is the center of the universe as the Catholic Church falsely alledged.
Of course they are going to try and arrest him. This is a guy the government doesn't want walking the streets. Why you ask? Because he brings out the truth!...It's funny how some of you say he suckers people out of money or whatever...That's why he puts his videos out free of charge, and backs up everything he says with good solid proof...hmm, kind of like Ron Paul which the republican party wouldn't even invite to a debate!....See a trend here?
It's a good excuse but if you break the law by annoying people or causing a disturbance then you can't really complain about it nor should his fans.
I'm sure the government is quaking in their boots because of this guy. Paranoia....now where could all this paranoia come from... Well I don't know but I'll take 5 ounces of what he's having.
