If the fringe dwellers can't tell that he staged this and wanted to go to jail to rile up his fanatic supporters they need to get their heads checked. There was no injustice here he new exactly what he was doing and got the result he wanted.
Extremists are always willing to will do anything for their cause even if it means jail time getting beaten up or even their life (suicide bombers for example)
If he really believed he was not doing wrong he would not plead guilty and would fight it, he very much wanted to go to jail, look what it has done for his cause.
I had never even hear of this fanatic until his stunt, and he had all the avenues to get his message across with out breaking the law it's just not as many people would have listened, now the whole world knows about him. His opinions an antics will make news for years to come now, this is exactly what he wants, even a blind man could see that..
