His clothes were torn and dirty as he stood there by my bed. He took off his three-cornered hat and speaking low to me, he said, We've fought a revolution to secure our liberty. We wrote the Constitution as a shield from tyranny. For future generations, this legacy we gave. In this, the land of the free and home of the brave. The freedoms we secured for you we hoped you'd always keep. But tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost, you're no more than a slave. In this, the land of the free and home of the brave. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun. Permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying how the money's spent. Your children must attend a school that doesn't educate. And your Christian values can't be taught. according to the state. You read about the current news in a regulated press and you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS. Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold. You trade your wealth for paper so your life can be controlled. You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame. You've taken Satan's number. You've traded in your name. You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seize the family farm and keep our country deep in debt. Put men of God in jail. Harash your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. And your daughters visit doctors so their children won't be born. Your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedoms for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you will fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear and be a slave? O sons of the Republic, arise, take a stand, defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the land, preserve our great Republic and each God given right, and pray to God to keep the torch of freedom burning bright. As I awoke, he vanished in the mist for whence he came. His words were true, we are not free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now as tyrants trample each God given right we only watch in tremble too afraid to stand and fight If he stood by your bedside a dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he'd fought to keep What would be your answer if he called out from the grave is this still the land of the free? Ladies and gentlemen, this is the evening intelligence report I'm rkirky and John Betcher.

Good afternoon evening to the illusions. Switching out, of course, three hours plus behind, actually four hours behind us.

Well, I'll tell you what, it has been cool, clear, we've got a little crescent moon over there sitting right behind the sun, not too far behind it, Don. Bright for what it is. clear otherwise may drop down quite a bit tonight so be careful out there cover up the plants if we got any that need to be we've got pepper plants still producing and a few others plus the eggplants doing very well but you got to keep an eye on that we got frost possibility tonight downwards like in your neck of the woods what's the date today sir? On this day of October year of our Lord 2013 that's a planet for certain Mark you'll see that's gone in about three weeks that it looks like a star just on the horizon just before as the sun sets rather. The other way to make, well, I mean that's a planet, just give it about three weeks and you won't see it. Again, 7 October 2013. We could run in a number of directions. We could talk about, you know, the car zooming around in Washington. We could talk about shooting. It's not a weapons Wednesday, but we'll get to that black car in a little while. Maybe someone will want to talk more about that. Let's talk about, it's not exactly a neighborhood thing Mark, but you know, if you, we've talked about that civilian marksmanship program over the years, and you know how that works, you guys, you fill out the forms, you tell them you've done this and you've done that and you've participated in X amount of gun shoots, contests, and United States government, they'll send you an M-Morton. I don't know how generous they are these days if they'll still send you an M1, but for a long time they did that for free. They would even send you cases of ammunition too, but I don't know how generous they are. I don't know if they'll send you a rifle for free anymore. Even if they were to charge you $400 or $600, Mark, that would seem for what is basically a brand new M1. Kind of a pretty good deal. I'm pretty certain. I think you'd agree too. When you sign your name to the line, in particular when you're dealing with Uncle Sam, it's not like you bought that gun from a guy at a gun show you guys. Because when you buy that gun from Uncle Sam, you're telling him that you're going to do all kinds of things with it like, you know, shoot in contest. Which is the whole premise of you getting the gun right so you become a better marksman in defense of the nation. Mark, I don't know exactly what paragraph and subsection it is where it talks about if you become a standing, card-holding, shooting member of the civilian marksmanship program and the government sends you that semi-automatic .30 caliber weapon. If the government says, well, come on down here, boy, at a time when the government wants you to shoot people in the direction or... just general war on the continent. They expect you to show up with the gun that they're loaning you so that you can become a better marksman in defense of the nation. And if they deem to say, well, you need to come and defend the nation, they can call you up, Mark, much like Winter used to. Did you know that that applies to you guys that got that M1 through the civilian marksmanship program? Now let's ratchet it up a little bit Mark because you know this isn't in my neighborhood. This is across the country. Boy it would be really nice if you know I got somebody to clean my gun all the time and made make sure it was working and you know every once in a while they'd take the gun to a contest just to ensure that you know it still shoots real small groups at particular ranges and if it doesn't well they're going to figure out why and they might even put another barrel on it or a trigger group or do something or you know, rebed that gun or figure out why the groups aren't at least the average of everybody else there that is there to make their group smaller. And if need be, I can just call them back up and say, hey, we need to come down here and shoot these people for us because well, we loaned you that gun for a reason. Now, all of you sheriffs that are listening that got your helicopter or your armored vehicle or you know, all of that federal line-up of things that your main lining like Keith Richards and a pound of heroin, guess what? It says, oh you can keep this helicopter for a while and you can maintain it and if you run into any birds or anything, it's your responsibility and if you fall out of the sky, well, the people who you fall on, they can sue you, but if we ever need that helicopter back, thank you for keeping maintenance for us. The beat is letting all the seals dry out, doesn't it? So even the sheriffs are being what one might call, you know, Mark, we've addressed this. Some of them are, yes, sir, Mr. Fed, I'm really happy to have you on my team now. And we're going to be all, everything is just, and they just, you know, smooths right up to them. And they're just happy to get everything and anything they can. And they don't read the fine print. And in fact, they could, you know, give two rats posterior less about the fine print. And then there are those that think that, well, maybe I should read the fine print so they have somebody else read it to them and explain it to them. And probably, well, they explain bunches of stuff to them, but they decide not to. And then there are those that even tell them about it. Well, you know, we're going to, they want their helicopter back at some time. And the sheriff says, well, give it a try. And then there are those that say, oh, we'll be happy. So, you know, there's a across the gradient you're going to see that scale or you could across the scale you're going to see that gradient of how people will respond to what the government says, this is yours and well now we need it back for a while. I just thought I'd mention that Mark and just in case while you've got one of them M1s out there you guys the government might want to call you up to shoot people like one day. That mind that you know if they call you up and tell you well read the about the contract that talks about the insurgency, you might want to stay home, okay? Or you might want to, if there goes that truck full of black uniform moose, you know, bums, well then you might want to employ your M1 on that occasion. And it would be good that you've been working up your accuracy and the government sent you that case of ammunition that you've got to learn how to shoot real small groups with that gun as they before the truck turns the corner, you take care of everything and including the driver. See how that works. And then you say, thank you very much for that gun, Uncle Sam. I'm glad you sent it to exactly where it was needed. Thank you again very much. I thought I'd mention that, Mark. We might have a caller or two. Then we might have a comment on that. The argument is that with the new executive order that they passed with regard to the DCM that you know Department of Civil and Marchmanship Program for acquiring M1s that eventually will you know negate it because the rifles won't be coming back in. There are a certain number that were held in reserve but the numbers have increased and the availability has dropped down. The biggest problem has been spare parts. and also ammunition. Most people don't know that the last batch of OTS-6 that was brought in by the Civilian Marksmanship Program was all purchased from Greece. and they actually figured that they'd purchase enough that it would probably hold up to their, you know, about eight to ten year program and they went through that in a little less than a year, actually about seven to eight months. Everybody, of course, pretty well prepping for the war that's coming and grabbing and buying all of the grand ammo, the 30 out of six they can get their hands on. A lot of people out there are looking at this issue much in the same way and are acquiring whatever they can. The DCM was supposed to have retained or the government, the Fed, although Bill Clinton had most of the grants cut up and destroyed and almost all of the M14s cut up and destroyed. That happening in the middle 90s. The big thing is that a percentage were to be held back for the DCM, whether or not those were authorized for destruction is the next question. How long, you know, whether or not the civilian marksmanship program will have that much more in the way of any kind of lifestyle with the Garand. Now the carbine is another weapon that has been coming in. Now that probably did come in, certain percentage of those have come in from overseas. M1s and there's still a number that were just recently blocked and those were going into the youth program for the M1 carbine instead of the grand was being used by the same shooter group. The cool thing is the carbine ammunition was also available but like the grand ammo the carbine ammo was vacuumed up very very quickly guys and didn't last very long at least each allocation each group of you know batch of ammo they found now in both cases Alternatives are available. Aguila makes a massive amount of carbine ammo because they're still contrary what you might think Whole bunch of carbines in service all over the planet and even in Mexico so Aguila PMC and several of the companies make brand new fresh ammunition for the carbine just as everybody makes brand new 30 out of 6 rounds. You've seen that even come in from preview partisan in the white boxes. Black print, white boxes, preview partisan, military issue, 20 round square box, not the rectangular box. So it's available. The problem is the differential in cost. The deal that they made with the Greeks was for their surplus 30 at 6 ammunition for their garands built on one of the arsenal production lines that we gave them after World War II where they continued to produce the grand and you know a combination of other weapons and you know in the meantime leading up to modern armament and modern tooling. So they are switching over to the newer weapon systems. Anyway There are still DCM programs out there. The Apple Seed program we've mentioned on the air, which is not DCM, but is something that everybody needs to get into, especially with people that are young new shooters, they're trying to figure out how to get them into a cycle, get them into the program so they understand and are receiving some competent training. The Apple Seed program is definitely worthwhile. Obviously, you have to follow their instructions, deal with the ammunition issues yourself. And it's a good event. Everybody that's experienced it so far has kicked back and said, you know, come back up on here and said, oh yeah, it was definitely worth going to. Definitely worth the program. So... Well the Camp Perry program, which is typically where everybody goes for the qualification and for what is the Infantry Rifle Marksman School, the Infantry Weapons School that takes place, it's usually over a weekend and at the end of that you have one DCM national match. You can pull a grand off the shelf and you can actually shoot and compete. on that Sunday following the instructional course block which I believe is Thursday night for sign in through to Saturday evening. So again it's a worthwhile program, purely a matter of personal choice as we know. But one of the things to remember is there's still a finite number guys. There's only so many grands out there even if they continue to bring them in. little pools and pots here and there, but it's been 60 years since the grand was first produced, plus. And it's not that it's getting along with the tooth, it's just that attrition has its way. These weapons have not just been in museums or in armories, these weapons have been in battle. So with every passing year, a little chop here, a little chunk there, a few explosions at the wrong place. Eventually, of course, they've mostly been shelved in favor of more sophisticated newer weapons. But countries have a tendency, as you've already seen, not to get rid of sophisticated weapon systems or even unsophisticated. Where do you think all those moison naygots are coming from? I mean, wouldn't you think if you were an army, if you could keep grands over nagats, you'd keep them, but because the other side of the Iron Curtain was committed to the 7.62x54R, for them, that's the equivalent to the grand being held in reserve with all of these other countries. Now, progressively they're going to cycle out, then they're really, were pretty well finished because name for me something that they're going to allow you to have with the present rules the way that they are that's new production. One way or another, unless we come up with deciding that we're finished with all the restrictions, which gets me into another thing about who's really going to resist when the time comes. There's a whole bunch of people that have already asked permission of Class III weapons. They've already got massive files with the government. Which way do you think they're going to go when push comes to shove? Now I know how they should go, but I can imagine how a lot of them are going to try to acquiesce to the system to make them feel good. Just something to think about there. So again, as this world changes and as the reserves dry up, be prepared for the change in availability resources and where we're going to have to fill in the blank. This gets back to the whole thing about the 80% receiver program. and why everybody needs to be kind of plugging into that. Something we've talked about quite a bit. Knowing how to build your own and building stuff that's definitely, you know, again within reason and affordability is the key. The Garand, we can't really make any new ones. Well we can, they do. But you're not going to like the price. There are brand new Garands being made right now guys. There's brand new M1A's being made right now. It copies the M14. If you take a look at the price for one that compares to the original manufactured product You'll find that it isn't a $500 rifle It's a lot more. Okay a lot lot lot more Just something to think about there So if you do have them in the inventory don't lose them if you do have them in service You better start acquiring more goodies to go along with them because you're going to need them Anyway, just to be safe. Do we have any colors there? I know we have patient listeners And so do the other the other yeah, okay? I think we're yeah, there's the Jeopardy question or now here comes the pause for effect survey says all right we saw I think we're good I'm good one now which leads me to The talk about small arms you guys mark. I want to jump right in there, please And you you bring up that thought line there's two to mix in there the class three guys you Did you ever read Unintended Consequences? If you ever meet that fellow Ross, he'll tell you, I just wrote a book. To a certain extent that's true, but one might say, well, some books are like blueprints. So did you ever read Unintended Consequences? Mark, on occasion we talk about the canary. and keep an eye on these guys. But you guys, do you think that they would outlaw 22s or do you think that they'd outlaw even bolt-action single-shot .50 calibers before they would outlaw the automatic weapons? And I don't think, this just jumped in my mind, Mark, this is boom, you know, like fireworks going off. I don't think anybody else has brought this measure to the public thought line because they can't run out that ban on the M1 and go door to door with it without first running a ban on automatic weapons. Think about this. Either that or they do them simultaneously. Now that's another thought line there, but you know that kind of works up their workload, so to speak. But if they can, because see it's a small percentage, if they can demonize and vilify machine guns, automatic weapons, to the extent that As you point out, which one of these guys are worth their salt, so to speak? Are they going to say, no, you won't take my gun? Or, no, you won't take my automatic gun? Depending on whatever the nomenclature, whatever you want to call it. My machine gun, my automatic weapon, my... That is one of the tripwires to bear in mind. They're happy to demonize and vilify 22s when they want to and as of late it's it's a particular style of shotgun, but They can't leave they can't take away your ar-15 and leave leave the m16s out there in civilian hands think about the Effectiveness in a number of different ways gradualism in a number of different ways, okay Now, let's carry that thought line. We might be coming up to a break, but let's carry that thought line even farther because a lot of those guys that own machine guns, you guys, there's a two-word, three-word phrase you can put here, but they're rich fellows. You know what I mean? They're kind of, well, they're rich fellows. They have a lot of money. Again, there's nothing wrong with being rich in America. That is not what I am disparaging, but some of the rich fellows are generally going to run to the defense of freedom, as simply run to the defense of what they've got. And a lot of them, as you point out, Mark, well, if I just give up my machine guns, they'll let me keep my 17 factories that used to pay for my machine guns, but then I won't have any fun in the world. the ones that are thinking like that then I won't have any of their you know what I want to give them my machine guns why should I so again there are certain percentages going to go one way and a certain percentage is going to go the other but now let's go right back you don't have to own automatic weapons we've you've talked about that so many times Mark that you know the one aimed shot versus the one you know spring and prey burst the one well aimed shot is going to get something done They might duck and cover and they might even be running in a number of different directions in response to the burst over their head, but now all you've done is scatter the crowd instead of, as you point out, Mark, working the edges in order to keep them together. This leads over to planning. See the difference between spray and pray and, well, we're going to work the gun on this side and we're going to work the gun on that side. The group doesn't get too far apart, so the group remains manageable. That's planning and it's vicious as it sounds, bloody and monstrous as it sounds if you can work up that momentary, that description delivered in the last few sentences. Well, it doesn't sound like a whole lot of fun for either side, really. Some people will just sit on that trigger and say, I'm having fun today, today. Again, it doesn't sound like fun for either side. With that in mind, a lot of people don't like to get out of their comfort zone. We've talked about this before and we've talked about comfort zones before, but a lot of people don't like to plan things. Because they don't have plans, we could invoke a whole bunch of cliches about it if you don't plan to succeed, your plan to fail, and all kinds of other things like that. But you guys, we've talked about a couple of books here over the years. We've talked about Sun Sules, Art of War. There are those that say, Don, well, that's just so irrelevant. It is so basic that most people overlook great portions thereof, because again, it is so basic. And because people look at the basics like the simple things, and people think that that's simple, I'll just know it, it'll just come to me. It doesn't work like that, does it? It really doesn't work like that. Because if it's so simple that it'll just come to me, where's your freaking flying car? Because if it was so simple, somebody would have invented it by now, and it would be common by now, even to the extent that they told us it was going to be just when I was a child. So I'm expecting it, and it's so simple that somebody, you see where I'm going? I could just f*** up the lack of flying cars until the top of the hour, because that irks me to no end. I really want my flying car, but it's not something simple to arrive at, is it? Neither is sometimes just getting to the end of the day when people are simply trying to kill you. Now, I could use that word a whole bunch more times to the top of the hour, and I know we've got a caller. Maybe that caller wants to come in. I beg your patience for just a few minutes because I want to bang home a point here. I just want to put that hammer on the table, pick up the nail, and make the table so it never moves. because this needs to be addressed. Read that book by Sun Soo called The Art of War. It's so simple that some of the things in there, I never thought of that. And if you never thought of it, well odds are you aren't going to think of it in the middle of a battlefield. Don't think that you're Sun Soo and don't think that Sun Soo just thought of these things. One afternoon he decided he'd write a book. Sometimes Somebody might do something like that. My son Sewell might have actually sat down and in one afternoon wrote that book. After about 35 or 55 years of studying war. So one might say, well how long did it take to write the book? General, well it took me an afternoon, a Saturday afternoon, and a lifetime of experience. So you see, just the actual event short dinky timeline to write the book wasn't nothing. But the time it took to bring all of that experience to the point that I think I'm going to write a book about this stuff and finally getting to the point that I think I'd better write and I think I'm going to do it this Saturday afternoon. See how that works? If you've never read Sun Soo's book, The Art of War, read it. And again, it's so simple that, man, I never thought of this and I never thought of that. And you hope your enemy never thinks of some of those things that are so simple. Now, let's continue this thought line and let's just all go to something so deep and so full of references for a while. If you've never read that book, you should probably read that book once, maybe two or three times. Much like Sunsool's Art of War, Every Persian general has read it for a good long time. Most every Russian general has read it for a while. Any officer in any army in any nation of the world, if he's worth his pay, has it in his library or his friend's library and has read it once. I'll tell you about things like when you move into an area, take everything from the civilian. Leave them with nothing but their tears. leave them with nothing but their tears. Now that might seem, that's so basic and others are saying why that's so abstract but it is so real in Klaus Witz's world. Leave them with nothing but their tears and people will talk around that Mark. That's so basic it's just make them cry but it's so overwhelming in that same thought that they have nothing. You've taken their pigs, their cows, their land, their wives, their mothers, their fathers, their daughters. You've left them with nothing but their tears. That's ethereal in its thought. Oh no, I'm sorry. It's not heavenly. It's hellish, isn't it? And because of that it's so simple that it's simply hellish and people don't want to address that. And people say that, well, that's like standing up. I don't want to read these things, Don, because I'm just, if they find out where I'm at, they'll just drop a 500 pounder on me. Or if I'm in the city, they'll just fry the city. You know, they'll just drop it, you know, they'll do the atomic thing on the city. Well, again, these are parts of warfare that, you know, we don't have control over. But if you're walking down the road and someone brings the rifle up and puts it on his shoulder, and he's trained for a good long time, and he's so far away that you never hear that bolt close, and he knows it so he's not even very... he doesn't even bother to be quiet about it. And he's so far away that he knows that after he pulls the trigger that, well, he can almost put the rifle down and light a cigarette. We've exaggerated this thought line and light a cigarette and bring his eye back to the, and watch you fall. And that is totally out of your control, isn't it? But wait a minute, that atomic bomb was totally out of your control. That was your excuse for not, and we can't deal with that. Many times we've asked you to compare an inch to a mile and there is one of the greatest comparisons, an inch to a mile, you'll hear and we will beg on this hour. But simply to say that something is not out of my control, I have no control over that and it will totally overwhelm me. Now that's like saying I was shot with a 22 dead or I was shot with a 50 caliber dead. Dead is dead. If the synapse aren't making anything move because the soul is moved on, that corpse, that thing that you used to occupy that shell is dead. Dead is dead. It matters not how you got there, under the A-bomb or by that 22, or as described by my friend's father moving along after they'd gone ashore. I've told this story on the year before. This is witnessed to me. by the man who saw this happen. A guy is holding on. Here is this GI mark. He got this Frenchman's bicycle. Well, it might have been a Frenchman's bicycle, but he didn't want to walk along next to that. three, that deuce and a quarter with the rest of his company. So he grabbed onto that bicycle and he's sitting on that bicycle and he's holding onto the side of that truck and they're going down this French road. And they did that for most of the morning and they did that for most of the afternoon until they hit a bump. You know that thing about down the alley, the ice wagon flew, hit a bump. Well, they hit a bump and this guy that was holding onto the truck, the bike went one way and he went straight down and when his butt hit the floor his head went over there and the truck kept going and it went right over his head and my friend's father describes hearing that guy's skull come apart with a smack of a drum and hearing the wet like a kiss punch because that had squeezed top that guy's head in such a way that It just launched his brain over there and his brain smacked up against the curb and came to a sudden stop over there. Now again, where was that atomic bomb? And that was just something that is totally beyond his control and hit a bump and maybe he should have been walking. And there's something to be said to conserving energy and all of those things and the arguments that run either way, but it's like, oops. and nothing you can do about it. So while you've still got that gun in your hand, young soldier, you better learn to aim better. And not to be redundant with the use of the word, but it would be better to learn to aim better. And you had better do that while you still have that gun on your shoulder, young soldier. Because, you know, somebody once said, who knows what tomorrow brings? And that was a love song. And we ain't been talking about very lovely things for the last little while. But you know what, if you're in it, well, if you stick your head up, you might not bring nothing back. But the object is to stick your head up, and you're so familiar with your gun that when that gopher over there sticks his head up, you whack it like a mole. That was the word I was looking for. That mole over there sticks his head up, and it gets whacked. And hey, you learn to do that day after day after day. Right? And we make them pay for their mistakes and for their laziness and for their not wanting to be here. So again, there are a whole bunch of different ways to look at it. But you know what? If you're thinking about being in it, you better think that, well, it doesn't matter if my end comes by an A-bomb or my end comes from a truck running me over or I stick my head up and I get whacked like a mole. Until that time comes, I'm going to make the op force. I'm going to be a dread to them. I'm going to bring as many of them to their knees and to their end as God will allow me to do. Think about it like that. You know, you won't have so many dreary, dreadful, and bummed out days. That's one way to think about it because you won't be sitting around waiting thinking, man, today might be my end. Because you're thinking about how many of them can we make die. That's the thought line. Because when you're thinking about that, it's not like that stumble-bum thought line that today's my day. And, you know, again, there's nothing wrong with that because sometimes you're right. And that today's my day. That's what makes you be cautious when you stick your head up, isn't it, Mark? Today was Joe's day watching that happen to someone, and we talk about mistakes. We've addressed that before, but you know what? That not wanting to just, you know, so to speak, sell yourself cheap. Again, it goes back over to, if today is my day, well, it's going to be 70 of theirs first, at least maybe 700, if I can make it to the end of the day. See how that works? Just let me make it to the end of the day in a good multiple of seven, okay? At any rate, Donnie has said before, I could go on and on, but you get my point, right? Don't you? If you're going to say that you are in it, You'd better learn of ways that people are going to take you out of it. People who have trained to lay you to waste by the side of the road as they march across the continent. If you don't start thinking like they do, like the people that they have studied have done, you're not going to have a leg up. And again, Sun Soo's book the art of war that they you could write i've read it on the air and you know what to read something out loud market takes well for me it takes about twice as long three times about three times as long depending on how slow or depending on cadence in particular places sometimes even i might even you've heard me read things on the air and go back and read a sentence or two or even a whole paragraph again but it takes me about an hour and a quarter hour and a half to read Sun's tools depending on who's now that's I think is is Claritins or beartins the guy who did Shogun Translation actually the art of war is the people who translate it. They talk a lot around it. They tend to be kind of like Don because None of them seem marked to translate it and not say anything and they make any commentary on it But I think it's clove l James clove l is was the author I'm talking about who's he I have a copy of his translation of the Art of War. Read it. It's the basics from a general who did rather well defending his country, his city state, and his lifetime. They followed his tenants for a while after he died, and when they abandoned his way of war, they were overrun in a short time. Now, again, Klauswitz, if you think that Oh, these are such high forms of thought and I can't afford to think like that. Well, you need to know that there are monsters in the world, Mark. We've addressed this in a number of different ways, but that goes over to study not too closely the ways of your enemy. Least you become like them. But if you know how the yacht force will think, if you know how rude and ruthless and bloodthirsty they can be, Sometimes in the middle of a fight, shock can be a thing that makes you stop for an instant. We've addressed this in a number of ways. You show your opponent something he's never seen before, and in that instant, in that moment, minute or hour, you have the advantage. You have the ability to take that awe that you are witnessing from him and use it against him, because he won't know what to do for the next, again, instant, moment, minute or hour. So that depends on how much you're overwhelming them with, gee, I've never seen that before, size and scale. If you're prepared for the blood thirstiness that the yacht force will bring, if you have been, even, if you have, oh, I read about this, even Sun Soo will offer the way that, the inhumanities. how people will treat people on a battlefield, how people will use civilians on a battlefield, even how people will use dead people on a battlefield. Well, there's three different ways that just jump off the pages of Sun's Souls Art of War into my head, but I'm not going to describe them to you because I want you to read the book. If you pick up the book and read it, don't read it out loud, it should take you about maybe 40 minutes. They're at least really really quick maybe 15 or 20 there are at least three Translations that are out there that are the dominant ones and there's five total that I know of that are in out there printed in force each one has additional commentary by the particular author that was you know hired to evaluate or to Hire to translate translate it. Yeah, basically when it comes down to is you know, there's different factions about the discussion of what was being said no real recommendation the basic basic rules are there the only thing is the addendums or the uh... uh... additional subjects in each paragraph you know I should say forgive me in each chapter covering the uh... interpretation of what was being discussed so you know being stated by the author the original author so just remember that when you're looking at books especially in this day and age political correctness being part of it and The other consideration is that, you know, again the author, the, I should say, the translator, in this case, the translator of thought. The translation is pretty well consistent. The idea is that, well, what he meant was this. And remember that sometimes that's designed to misdirect, allowing the other person to take and absorb the words of the author from the beginning, the original author, and see if you can work it out for yourself. Chances are you'll come out with an interpretation that pretty well makes sense. The authors typically were trying to be very concise, they were trying to get the message across. They were trying to teach a number of people in a consistent way because they were building armies. Just keep that in mind. And the idea is that allies too. So there's a number of different considerations that are tied into why the book was written in the first place or why the guideline was written as an annal as something that would be a benchmark for all of that society. within his own sphere. We have our Western variations, the Western variation of this. Again, the Art of War, we have our own version of that. We also have, of course, Machiavelli as I mentioned this morning, the Prince, but Machiavelli wrote many other texts and treaties on war. He's not the only one, but let's understand that he had a significant control over the mindset of the later authors that came after him. They built on what he had proposed, and he himself built on the annals the limited libraries that exist in the day that the chosen were allowed to read or that they were selectively able to access. Not just the Vatican library, but there are others. So this allowed them to survey or purview what other people had come up with. The Prince by Machiavelli talks about everything from the militia, the disarmament of the population, the attempting to do so, and what the final outcome will be, or how it is that you'll be destroying yourself from within, etc., etc. So all of these issues are addressed. And it's interesting that no matter how you look at it, times haven't really changed. Yeah, the toys have changed a little bit. But the basic idea that tyrants or petty tyrants especially can't handle the population managing itself, well, there ain't nothing new there. We're seeing it right now again with the petty tyrants we've got in Washington. The big thing here, again, is the overviews that are being offered allow you to build a strategic view, not just a tactical view. an overview, a strategic view, the high r echelon, the management of armies, moving them into the field, which still comes down to that guy at the front, the very tip of the spear that really gets everything done, which is where we get to the tactical result. The better you are communicating how to get that mission done, the greater the ripple effect. On the other end is, you know, remember you've heard this before, but it's an old lay, For the lack of a nail, a shoe was lost. For the lack of a shoe, a horse was lost. For the lack of a horse, a rider was lost. For the lack of a rider, a battle was lost. You know, going up through the progressively just one simple little action and how it pebbles into an avalanche. That's one of the reasons that we have to have a good grasp and we need to develop. This is what the theme has been kind of today. We need to develop in several areas and become much more multi-dimensional. We need to be three-dimensional and include the fourth, which is time. Because there are factors that are tied in, as you build and you think your numbers are fixed, they're not. Remember there's that sugar cube moving through fluid. And a dense fluid. It may be more viscous so it may not be as corrosive initially, but it still commutes the moisture which breaks down the sugar cube. That's how strength is moving through time. That's the only way I can explain it best. It's like when people describe the power pyramids that make up these different factions, it works the same way. The time factor creates an ebb and flow, a rise and a fall, a build up and a failure that pulsates depending upon the life cycle and where each of these groups are in the life cycle. When I say life cycle, I'm talking about human beings, people. We are in a situation where right now we need the next generation to kind of step in, but to really go through the basics again. This is really, this is especially critical in all categories. There is a lot of stuff that needs to be done. No single person can do this. In the last 25 to 30 years there were a whole bunch of people that picked up a lot of weight. and ran with a lot of, you know, did a lot of effort, performed very very well and everybody expected them to keep right on doing that. Well, time doesn't wait for anyone. And so we're now at the point where the tools have changed, they've improved in many ways to create much more dynamic imagery. If we seriously, if we look and take seriously the materials at our disposal, we have the opportunity to capture a lot of minds here at a very short period of time, but we have to be expeditious in how we operate. We need to move now. Our economic issues, stuff we were talking about, we've been talking about for most of the day, are things that need to be addressed. We need to sit down until 2 or 3 in the morning, yeah, at the kitchen table. And we need to lay down and at least plant seeds of a process. We may not be able to move on everything at this moment in time, but once the disaster, the shipwreck takes place, then you'll have no choice. It's either sink or swim, kids. It's either make it or break it. And I don't plan on breaking it and I'm not going to drown. And I don't think a lot of other people are going to allow that either from their end. So now that we have a mutual understanding and a mutual liberty interest in this situation, how about we get the program plugged in the rest of the way? Re-broadcasting. Not just what we're doing now, but prepared to take over with the micro FMs and the micro AMs and alternate systems, CB transmissions, whatever. What's going to happen if the major money goes down? The power grid's not going to be sticking with us for very long. It'll be haphazard at best. If you're blessed, you might have hydroelectric in the area. Maybe old nuclear, who knows. But how long will it last if the operators don't show up? The hydro is actually the most forgiving. Coal and oil being the least nuclear, well, as long as you can keep people away from the fuel rods, and be the thieves, and other fools Nuclear could be good with whatever you do. Don't let them steal the water pumps or the handles We needed a water pump. It's getting a little hot in here We're gonna go to China work cuz the vandal took the handle. That's right. So So again, the technology, in reality if we had a charged reactor, it would be good for about 20 years. Usually reactors aren't running by themselves guys, there's two in a pod. In some cases more. If you have two reactors, you'd idle one down. and run the other for a period of time then idle the first one down and bring the other one back up and they'd be good for probably almost 40 years worth of operation. Now for everybody who goes well that's not that much power I think the emphasis should be ask yourself how much electricity was generated at the peak of what became the industrial age. Now the reason I bring it up is because steam overlapped with that guys. and the majority of the beginning of the industrial age had nothing to do with electricity at all. In fact, there's arguments that if electricity hadn't shown up, the mechanical world was actually functioning quite well and would have gone probably to a, you know, the nth degree would have been perfected just like anything else once the technology is focused on. And to a degree it was, but it was overcast by the electric motor. steam was overcast by the electric motor and then the internal combustion engine which was as much as anything simply the rock fellers wanting to sell oils not that steam was more effective or gave more energy or forgive me the gasoline did and it didn't it did not offer more energy it did not offer more torque it did not offer more offer more horsepower it was simply cheap That in and of itself was a driving factor, but if you had steam you only had to worry about the mechanical parts and whatever you could burn meant you had power. So that was better still than, shall we say, Mr. Rockefeller's petroleum oil products, you know, oil and lubricant products. Still needed oil to run the machinery, but that was, you know, again, once you had it, pretty much if you knew how to recycle and reprocess it, and most everybody did, on old oil systems or oil lubricant systems, guys, you might recall, you had catcher points for leaks, where there were leak or automatic drip points where it actually would pass through the machinery, and you would actually recycle the oil and drive it through the machine again. Most people don't know that. drip reservoirs and things of that nature were designed. I've used several machines I ran that were antique when I ran them. And the first thing you did at the beginning of the shift is you oiled everything. You know where you got the oil from? The catch where the oil reservoir caught everything that ran through the machine, dropped it to a point, you know, turned on the spigot. poured the oil into the oiler, went through and oiled everything, about 50, 60 oil points. And then, well of course while the machine was in startup phase, then you ran the machine for six, eight hours a day. And then when you were done, the second shift came in. By the time you ran the machine through, all that oil that you put in the machine, it didn't get pushed out. It dropped through the system, went back to the reservoir. And guess what? You probably had a little bit of loss. Eventually you would. But you know what? You use it again. So we have the ability, provided we keep our wits. There's a term nobody's used for quite some time. The nutcases, the sycophants, the kleptomaniacs, they're not going to keep their wits. They're going to become vicious. They're going to become crazy. Rabbit dogs will have to be put down. The filth that are causing all the problems in the first place and caused all of these problems will be put out of our misery. And once that is done, well, congratulations. Now you got what you wanted. What are you going to do with it? And we are at the top. Yes, we are. So guys, again, the ability to defend ourselves is a militia issue. Not a professional army issue. It's a militia issue. You better keep thinking that way or it'll be right back in the same boat we're in right now. and we need to resist the idea of some pro-professional doing that job. Or you know, again, because what happens goes right back full circle. Women being shot in a car by a firing squad of people, well, with nothing else to do but test their weapons. You saw that if we argue about it back and forth bottom lines what they showed us in Washington We got to go we're at the top got done your number for night vision first, please. Hey that number is 231-796-8458 God bless the Republic death to the new world order we shall prevail ladies and gentlemen the Empire's on the run But we are on a march both day and night. Oh, we'll be back in just a little bit only gonna be about 10 hours or so we'll be up in the morning dining number for night vision and closes, please That number is 231-796-8458. Thank you Mark. God bless you. God bless you America. This next announcement is serious news, and you won't hear it in the mainstream media. We are living in an age full of catastrophic events, and it's getting worse. But before we go on, remember this website. Highgrounds.us. In the past two decades, natural disasters have increased by 800% within the US alone. Cataclysms like Hurricane Katrina killed and displaced thousands because they were not prepared. And the 2008 economic collapse could happen again, but be much, much worse. So type this into your web browser.
