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 vie 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 is 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 will be able to... 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? Oh, 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'd 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 him tremble, too afraid to stand and fight. If he stood by your bedside in 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 and home? Afternoon ladies and gentlemen, this is the first hour of the afternoon intelligence report. I'm Art Krunke. One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters both on and behind the lines in occupied territories west, southwest, east, and north. Well, ladies and gentlemen, you were listening to us on LibertyTreeRadio.4MG.com. We're on AM&FM micro stations, CB base stations, and UltraNet Technologies east and west of the Mississippi along with Alaska. We're on the hallmark network on the Eastern Seaboard from the top of Maine to the bottom of Florida from the bottom of Florida across the arc of the Gulf of Mexico. Headed Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas, Oklahoma, Big Chunk of Nebraska, a whole bunch of Wyoming to include both Pitt 3rd and 5th and our friends in the recall state of Colorado where the buggers have quit because they plan on reassigning the same person or a similar person to the job so I don't think the recall order is stopped you just change the name on the clipboard see how that works kids anyway waving to the left coast where Feinsteinism vomits its wretched filth excrement such slash debris across the landscape along with the stain of diaper brown ooh disgusting there yeah that brown diaper stain Anyway, turning back to the east, leaving the California Soviet Socialist democracy, the beachhead for Chinese foreclosure operations in America. We sweep across the plains, leap over the burgeoning banks of the Mississippi, and land on the Smokies where the restaurant crews, OK teams, the Ma Bell Grammar Consortium, bring us the Golden Spike. Many hands make for light work. A million petticoat junctions, the ability to continue to function, what everything else is offline. It's been a beautiful day today. Bright and sun shiny, just above freezing. Getting work done outside was quite probable today. Hopefully we'll have the same kind of weather tomorrow. We'll see what happens. For all of our friends out there, it is. Well, it's Friday. It's Quartermaster Friday as a matter of fact. Boy, it doesn't seem like it, but it is. And of course, Turkey Bird Day was yesterday, the eviscerated tissue. And the carcasses being boiled even as we speak for every last calorie is chicken turkey soup. Yeah, it is bubbling on this stove. Well, it's also... We don't have about a day or two more to go, and we're going to be done with... November, it's the 29th of November, it's the fifth year of open Fabian Socialist and Soviet Socialist Occupation of America with a K-2013 Old Earth Calendar or Mayan Crazy Town, Crazy Town Calendar as we know. For everybody out there, a couple things going on. Of course, a lot of discussion about the gun grabs in New York. Want to remind everybody people are already getting their notices to hand over their you know evil and vicious 22 bolt-action and some automatic rifles that take a magazine and even if you have or don't have them you're gonna be blamed for having them, okay So that'll tell you something right off the bat about what all is going on there kids Anyway, it is. Oh do we have Dom with us there? I heard background noise I'll wait for just a second And for everybody out there listening, let's see, okay, what else do we have? Well, New York, of course, is one. I haven't looked to see what Centerfire's sale for the weekend is, and after all it is, the holiday weekend and Black Friday! I'm top of everything else, whatever the hell that means anymore. Black Friday, well for the most part it's a Chinese port junk that nobody really wants or needs, but by God if you put a Black Friday banner on it, people will kill for it. And again, and again, and again, and again. And for everybody out there, a reminder too, don't forget the food stores. Ignore the BS with the electronics. Unless it's maybe handheld to a radio or something, you might find something there. I doubt it, but you might. You never know. You might find something there worthwhile. But if you do, let's just remember that pass it on to everybody else so they know where it is, for obvious reasons, because it's kind of handy to have Everybody is swooping in and picking up the stuff that most people aren't thinking about. A lot of people aren't going to be excited about the idea of having a two-way radio that's not in vogue right now, as you and I both know. So stuff like that, if it shows up in the sales category, chances are you'll be able to sweep in and pick up what you need. And that isn't a bad thing. Also, remember, there's a lot of companies that take advantage of the Black Friday motto. In reality, they don't have so much distress merchandise that they've purchased for that purpose. So much the idea that they've got stuff they need to get rid of them. It's been a dog market for them across the board. We'll see what we can do there to get that in motion. Anyway, let's see, what else did we have? Oh, all these before I forget. Well, actually, any box store, I don't care which one it is. If there's a turkey on it and it says Thanksgiving, right now that stuff's all been marked down. Everybody understand that? Also, turkey itself. Butterball turkeys. What I said before is pretty well confirmed. Drug on the market, so to speak. Lots and lots of butterball turkeys left over. People have steered clear of them this year. They didn't like the way that they were grown as far as what they had in the way of turkey fat. In that respect, if you're going to be processing the bird, well, if you're going to deep fry it anywhere, whatever you're going to do, don't worry, that's going to change real quick. But remember, the cats love that turkey fat. Also, if you're going to be doing soaps, this sort of thing we aren't thinking about right now. In fact, fat is going to be A bit of a commodity real quick because pretty much all your soaps are done with animal fats, different types, and any animal fat will do for the most part. Actually, with different fats, you get different qualities of soap. So one of the things that you have to kind of balance out is a certain amount of fat on the animal, especially if you're starving, is kind of nice because you're putting calories back in the system. On the other hand, if you're balanced out or at least you've got somewhat of a decent food reserve in place, and you've got some kind of economy, animal fats and renderings like that, typically bones, for instance, became a very marketable item with certain industries that developed and perfected consumption of throwaways like this. In fact, typically it didn't become throwaway, it became a market into itself. Once it becomes a thing of interest, it doesn't take long for everybody to want it. So again, the natural animal fats for use with making soaps is something that, again, if you're going to make that, your niche. We've talked about this. Everybody has a niche, something they're good at or something they're going to produce that they can probably market, and especially if they know how to make scents or how to make neutral soaps. This will become more and more valuable. Perfume soaps don't have to be made with parfumes from whale bladder from the middle of the Atlantic. And a combination of that and other exotic materials, just plain old lilac water guys, can be produced. And so for many other plants, can a number of different products be promoted and brought forward so that you can take advantage of them? Something to think about there in the long run, especially with food production the way it is and with overlapping other productions taking place. Piguard, beef fat, other fats are used. Interestingly enough, something that they're trying to push or attack is the natural fats because they want to try and get you into the stuff that will kill you. What's interesting is, again, if you want to raise a pig for lard, if you're trying to actually create a heavy larded pig, and there are people that do that, they actually want the lard for cooking, processing, whatever. Then you pen the pig and you don't let it move and you just feed it whatever you can in the way of sweets or as much in the way of calories as possible. Now that's natural. We're not talking about going out and getting a sweet feed and a special feed. Nowadays that's available too. But remember that if you prioritize all your scrapings and such, and all of your, you know, choppings and whatever else you can scavenge. Example is where we are right now, pumpkins are out in the field big time. And tomorrow, hopefully I'm going to be able to stop by one of the pumpkins farms here and say, hey, I want to grab some for, you know, for goat feed and for feed for the winter. I don't think we'll have any problem with that. We'll find out. I've been wanting to stop by. Actually, it's just the old story. Time is of the essence and we're always tight on our schedule. But there's an example of where you have readily available food stuff. If we get into a serious situation like we're talking about, none of the stuff is going to go to waste in the field in the first place. But anything and everything that you can get like that, where it's the scraps, the cuttings, the trimmings, that goes to the critters. If you are trying to engineer your critters for a particular end product, then you have to prioritize. Some will get maintenance speed, others will get expanded recipes, or in other words more calories from wherever you can find them, to throw into the critter to get them up to weight. That can be a number of different procedures there. Anyway, back to the again, post Thanksgiving sales for the next three or four days, however long they last. Let everybody else fight over the china sport junk down the road over there on the other side of the store. You hear the gunshots and screaming and some people getting stabbed. That's okay. If they're busy over there, you can go over to the food section. Pretty well run through and get what you need. And I highly recommend that you do that. Cheap food for the most, most for the least is what we're looking at. One of the things we had happen here is that a lot of the box stores were pushing stuff that really wasn't in line with the season. So they ended up with a lot of stuff on the shelf being marked down 78 cents, 80 cents, 90 cents a pound, whatever, for meat products, pork, even some other items. So especially in pork ribs, pork roast, et cetera, et cetera, not really into the holiday season with Thanksgiving. And so for that reason, if nothing else, remember that there's a lot of other stuff out there. that can be accessed that is pretty reasonable. Let's keep our minds focused on that too just to be safe. Anyway, let's see other stuff. Well, we are looking for any special caches of preview partisan ammunition right now. It appears that preview partisan is not coming back into the country. Shall we say that perhaps we're going to see it go the way of Sega? I would not be surprised. We'll see what happens. I don't know if they're prioritizing for war production for other countries, if it's just being held up in the process. Again, if you get a chance, go to aimsurplus.com, jdsales.com, Center Fire Systems. Center Fire doesn't have much in the way of the preview partisan ammunition, but They do have some pretty good stuff available So if you get a chance check them out see what they have that might be useful and then go from there now I would recommend that If you do find something that is useful in that particular category with regard to reloadable ammunition that you definitely invest in it right now guys because we're looking at the inventory disappear in here it's not a surprise exactly what we expected but uh... with the inventory going in the direction that it is uh... and more and more i think because of the amount of purchasing being done combined with the being quieted now they don't want anybody to know what actually is happening across the board with regard to everybody out there and how they're investing Anyway, well here we go. Thanks guys in the chat room there. Whoa well there is something this I don't know we'll find out more about this one. Look like Glock trade-ins for $350 a piece. Without they have any left we're gonna find out in a second here. And it looks like they do. These are Glock 40 caliber model 22 Glocks and excellent condition police trade-ins. I don't know what generation they are, Gen 3, and they're $350 a piece. I'm not raving about the Glock, I'm not excited about the Glock, but if you have Glocks and you need more Glocks, there you go! $350 a piece, and that is on the main page for CenterfireSystems.com. Centerfire Systems, they've also got Glock 17s and 9mm. Apparently they're worth more, I guess, than the third generation 40 Smith & Wesson. These are third generation 9mm for $370 a piece, but they are Glock 17. So if you're looking for a Glock 17, that's your niche, your forte, that's what you are interested in, then there's a direction to go. They've come down again. Interesting, here on this one they haven't been moving. The Hawke 12 gauge with the picatinny rail on the roof or the ghost rings. $160 a piece for the one with the Picatinny rail and $180 for the one with the ghost rings. Now they do have some other drums and such. On sale you have to take a look and see what they have. Oh, give me a break. I am beginning to hate this system. I really am. There we go. Also, they do have stripped lower receivers. Blackforge, lower receivers for $55. Those require an FFL, those are finished receivers. Again, if you are interested, $55 apiece. And those are stripped lowers. You can put the rest of the goodies together on those. There's a number of other items that they have the catamount 12 gauge those are the Chinese communist You know knockoffs they've brought in their AK type to try and catch into the market there I don't know if there's any spare parts for those. I'm not really excited about them And you know normally I would be but I don't trust the stinking Chinese on anything For the most part anymore not anything coming at this point in time the pump guns reasonably priced. Let's put it this way If you were to ask me, well Mark, which way would I go? The $160 hawk 12 gauge pump knockoff of the 870 or $400 for their Catamount Furies. I'd say get three of those, almost three of those hawks for $160. You can at least get two of them in a lot of ammunition. That means two men outfitted and they've got just as much fire power as they need to get the job done. Looking at the with the Skeletize pistol grip stock they want 450. No, I guess I can get three of the pump 12 gauge straight guns for $160 a piece. I'd go that way. Seriously, three for the price of one. If somebody else was carrying that kind of a gun on the other side, three guys gang up on them, they're all finished and you got what they got. In fact, let's all do it from three different directions at once and our mission is we want one of those magazine fed 12 gauges from the other side, whatever they're carrying. You just harvest it accordingly from them. Not a problem. And they do have VEPRA 12 gauges. Those are running anywhere from $850 to $1000. And again, they're cool guns, but that's a chunk of change. Of course, the catabounce are coming down in price, they've actually dropped them by $100. mostly because they're not moving. I don't know that there's any mags available and if there are I'm sure they're just as expensive as pepper mags or whatever. They do come with two mags in theory so this is kind of like what happened with the Turkish guns coming in. The Turkish 12K M16 lookalikes. Notice that those are kind of come and gone. They're out there to a degree but I think they call them remember the 1919s but you're not seeing a whole lot more on them and I do not know that any magazine is interchangeable with the catamounts. If they were, that would be cool. If they were Sega and Pepper interchangeable, that would be one thing. But if they're magazine specific, $400, Chinese made, gas operated, conventional buttstock could be fine. If you were asked me, I'd go just a straight conventional buttstock. Don't worry about the skeleton. Save the $50, $60 and spend it on ammunition or try to find magazines. That's the only thing and I have not had a chance to really talk around to see if I could find out more about these So again, it's a question mark on them until we see a lot more information There are two five round mags. They only carry a five rounder anyway, so yeah, like I said that model 870 knockoff that's made by the Chinese also would be as good a choice. If you were to ask me looking at this page, here's an example some people have done, they said, well I went to Centerfire and they got such and such. If I were looking to just buy off the shelf and I was going by what, whatever anybody told me in terms of, it's got to be a 40 cal, a 9 mm, a 12 gauge, whatever, off of this rack right here with what they're offering, I would go The Glock in the .40 caliber probably, and although I like 9mm guys, I really do, I don't have a problem with it, I just prefer .45. But if you're looking at this page, okay, I'd go the 981R Hawk for 12 gauge for $160, and I'd go with the Glock in either the 9 or the .40 caliber. Really a matter of personal choice on your part. because it was the same gun. 40 caliber, a Model 22 or a Model 17. They're trade-in guns. They're supposed to be in excellent condition. Somebody got a burr up their saddle. Probably read something about steiers, and so the whole department had to trade in their Glocks for whatever reason. Oh, well. Glock mags are available. It's purely a matter of here's a way to look at it. If the nine mags are cheaper and there's more of them, go the nine. If there's 40 caliber and lots of them out there, go to 40 cal. And if you've got lots of ammunition too, that's the big thing is, well, you have ammo. The 40 cal is going to be out there off the corpses of the bad guys. There'll be stuff in the trunks, stuff in the trucks, stuff in the back fields. So the 40 cal is just as acceptable. Remember, if you're killing occupation troops, 9 millimeters out there just as common, and 9 millimeter NATO is the standard. So it's a toss up there. Otherwise, if you'd say, well, Mark, I also need a rifle. I got a DPMS Panther. If you don't want to build anything for $600 for a carbine, send AR-15 with a flat roof. And it's $600. So for what are we looking at here? Wow, $1,150 or so. Basically, you're able to get into, or you went out for about $1,100. Yeah, I like that. Let's see, you do eight, nine. Now, yeah, a little under $1,100, you could have all three basic weapons. An air 15, a Glock, and a Glock 40, and a 12-gauge shotgun. If I only had a pick between the two, I'd take the 12-gauge, and I'd take the Glock. Seriously. And then spend lots and lots and lots of money on ammunition. And since the shot shells are pretty reasonably priced, I get slug. I get pickup slug, pickup number four buck, double lot buck, whatever I get the most for the least, and a bunch of number six. I love number six. Or BB, take your picks. BB's a good one too. That's a people chewer. Especially if you're in close range. You think the buck works well, I'm going to tell you right now, shredding somebody with BB or with number 6 shot at close, close range, that pretty well puts them off the game. Just something to think about there. So again, it's a personal choice issue, but just that rack. If I said, everybody said, well, I'm going to buy off that rack. What can I do? Let's go to the magazines real quick. The reason I bring this up is it's Quartermaster Friday and a lot of people are trying to get done fast with what they need to do. So let's go to Glock and see what the Centerfire has. If I could go one place, no. Korean Glock mags will be fine. I've got to live with them. They're cheaper by a few dollars anyway. Let's see, yep, I can get for $10 apiece. Glock 22 mags, 15 rounders, there you go. It'll work fine. Don't worry about getting bigger. Don't spend more money on bigger ones. Just get the Glock 15 round, .40 caliber, Smith & Wesson, Korean manufactured, $10 apiece. It used to be $5 apiece. We told you if you had a Glock, buy the snot out of them. Now in reverse order, here's the thing. You spend a little more money on the pistol if you go $9. But you can save $2 per mag if you go with a 9mm. So what you had to spend for a few dollars more initially in the 9mm Glock, you save in magazines right off the bat so it balances out. You know, it really does. Only when you get past the first several purchases, you finally save enough that the 9mm mags would be the way to go. And those are Glock 19, 15 round 9mm magazines, and they're $8 apiece. So that's the solution. And they do have 17 rounders and they've got all kinds of other sizes. But no, I'd stick with standard mags, only standard mag size, 15 rounders, 9 millimeter, 40 Smith and Wesson. Now as far as ammunition goes, I don't know. Let's go this way. In handgun ammunition or whatever ammunition they have available, let's see what we have in brass. If I could do one stop shopping, can I do it here? Yeah, I've done look too pleasant to me so far. Do do do do do. Let's see I don't see any 40 some nine and It's brass case and away. Well hundred rounds for 33 99 blazer You got 20 some dollars box. Well, I guess that would be one direction to go away. It'll hurt Anyway, the other thing is they do have and notice prices guys. Now center fire has been reasonable in the past and 80 rounds of Bulgarian FMJ ammunition, and I don't know if that's corrosive and non-corrosive, 7.62x25 ball Bulgarian for $30. It's like, whoa, dudes, what does that tell you right there? This item is out of stock already. They already got it. They already sold it. I shouldn't even mention it, but here's the kicker. $30 for 80 rounds. I read that right. $30 for 80 rounds of surplus ball. So, again, pay attention guys. I know we could probably end up, if we'd have to, you're going to not be able to do one stop shopping. But, you can do most of what you need. The glocks are there, the pump guns are there. Most would be the two focus items. Purely a personal choice in that point forward. You've got more money than I do. You can pick whatever you want off that page. But those would be the two I'd grab quick. That would give me a lot of troops outfitted for a reasonable price. I've got a hand cannon, I've got a shoulder gun. and with the Picatinny rail the next step is get a low power scope mid power scope put that on that weapon remember a little more eye relief you need for the shotgun and you can go with Sabos and you can reach out to 200 yards of that slug and with the Sabos guaranteed I've done it myself using an Ithaca model 37 or an 870 and with a Chinese little 5 power 3 to 5 power scope or one of the set 5 power scopes and she works all day. And we've also used a burris, I've used burris scopes in the same way with the Remington Model 870 with a standard scope mount on the roof and with Sabo slugs 200 yards right down the road here all day. So that means that you've got the, well, what did they say? The maximum range you're going to gauge is 200 yards. Oh, okay, cool. So my shotgun can reach that, right? In my shock it will reach it with a lot more bullet. 500 grains doing almost the same velocity as your .223 gun. I have 500 grains of bullet going down range. Man, no matter where I hit you, you are going to know I hit you. Wow! Yeah, I think that will work out for us. Anyway, who do we have color-wise? Oh, this is Saffy. Hey, Fluffy, jump in there. What do you got? Well, earlier this morning I was at Mickey D's online and the ammunition store had Primers listed as being in stock and some fairly decent prices on .223 and .762 by .39. Where was that again? AmmunitionStore.com. AmmunitionStore.com. They have the Wolf Performance. Large pistol primers, I wrote that down, but they had these small pistol and small rifle. I did not notice if they had large rifle primers too, but $30, $1,000 or $145 for 5,000 primers. They did have it listed. www.ammunitionsstore.com, Shot Show Primers Wolf Performance 1000 Pieces Per Box, Kentucky in the chat room there posted it. and let's see here if they still have them in stock. Because you know how that works from the morning to the afternoon. They show the shot shell $29.99, $30 per box, 1,000 primers. So they have them in stock as far as they claim they do, as far as we know they do. So if you're going to order them, guys, there's a solution. And they had the other primers too, correct? Also had the 760x39, the Wolf Polypharmons. You know, the steel case with the poly coating, a thousand on case for 330 bucks, which, well nowadays that's a decent price. Yeah, and you know what, it's creeping right now again. I'm going to tell you two things like I said. The guys I've been talking to, what we're seeing now are specific people, just like what happened five years ago and just happened when they did the you kill all the gun owners thing on television. Now people are coming in as purchasing agents, they're just saying, I want however much I can get for this dollar amount. Give me a better price. And they're walking out guys with just whole categories. Everybody's getting ready for war now again, so it's like cool. The people all went to Washington all found out they're all being laughed at. And so they left Washington with a mission. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yeah, well, I totally agree, boss. I really agree. The interesting thing about the primers, I don't know what's going on with Wolf or what's going on with previous partisan. Now, previous partisan is a combination of Serbian and Latvian and Russian. It's not just, you know, it's actually Baltic state production, old Yugoslavian production and a few other countries. So how they're tooled up on that I don't know. And whether or not they're, you know, again, they're going to ship stuff over here when they've got a market over there, which is just as heavy as it is here right now, they don't have to go off the continent to sell. You know, that's one of the problems. And they also don't trust our dollar, which is the other problem. Yeah. I wouldn't either. I'd be quite honest if I was outside. I'd be looking at Swiss francs. Seriously, like we always used to. Guys, I'm telling you, when I used to look for armored vehicles outside the country and I used to be shopping around, the conversion to Swiss francs was a really good idea. Seriously. When we bought the Saracens, half the time we paid for them in francs, not in the US dollars. I had to go through the bank, do a wire conversion, and then we'd get two Saracens at a time. $8,000 apiece. That included the delivery. The more you bought, the cheaper they got. That was a cool thing. So, how's that now? So, we're not, yeah, now, yeah, yeah, now I've, well, actually it's full circle. You can buy a Russian fighter, the guys in the chat room, I gotta bring this up again. Guys, you can buy a Czechoslovakian or a Bulgarian or Hungarian fighter that runs right now off the shelf for $8,000 to $11,000 to $12,000. You can have a whole light air force for about, probably about $120,000. Not bad. We're talking a full squadron with a couple of hangar queens back up. They wouldn't be hangar queens. They all would be running. The one aircraft was looking at us down in Florida, $11,000. Everything's sitting there and all checked to give all the facts, to get all the manuals, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Boris even does a last check on the aircraft before it leaves. But these are all American inside the US. These are not stuff that's outside and overseas guys. It's all stuff that's in you in the US. And all these aircraft have hard points on them. In armor, there are still a few buys out there. The biggest problem is the conversion, and again, getting it inside the US. If it's in the US, There's still some stuff there. Ferrets right now are still available for under $10,000. But you've got to remember when we bought our ferrets and the fleets that we have right now, we paid $1,300 to $3,000 per vehicle, guys. So that's the difference in well-evaluation, etc. Now for a while they've gone up and in fact you can find them out there for $20,000, $30,000, $40,000. I wouldn't pay that. And only because they've been heavily purified, they've done everything to make them all spec, and they're all hand painted, and they've got all the little goodies and doodly bobs there for a showpiece or a museum piece. Well we're looking at a working truck. We're working in a working armored car. It's a very different world. Ours have some mishmish on them, cross equipment based upon what we found for the best price works better. The example is British headsets and British intercoms are okay, but American stuff is out there plenty and that's what a lot of our gear is switched over to. I wouldn't want pretty. I want it to work. Yeah, exactly. Well, and again, the thing is a lot of them buy these things as collector. What they're doing is selling them to people as investments. And, me, remember, $1,200 to $1,300 is what they cost coming in. And I said $1,300. For less than the price of a VEPRA rifle, you could have an armored car. OK? And anybody who doesn't remember this, think back when we went down to Knob Creek, guys. It used to be two or three of those things hanging outside the pavilion there, and you could have them for anywhere from $1,800 to $3,000. And they drove them all over the place while you were there. See, so if everybody goes, well that's not possible, ah, BS. Not only that, remember, these are a highly automotive armored car, very lightweight by comparison at most, and a lot of different configurations put together. A couple of them that the guys had down there, remember, had tri-30s. They had 130 in the main cupola, and then they had two 30-caliber's mounted either side externally. So basically it's a three point Browning 1919 mount. And I crossword are driving a presidential limo and are trying to avoid gunfire bullets. Is that presidential limo supposed to be bullet proof? Yeah, they wouldn't worry too much about the ping ping. That is from small arms fire. They're worrying more about something that cuts holes in it. You know, it's using a shape charge and it's armored up enough or should be that it's probably, it probably has ceramic and a couple of other layered armors. I mean after all our tax dollars paid for it. As much as anything, the idea is the driver is supposed to avoid contact if at all possible. That's offensive driving 101. Try not to get hit because damage is, attrition is, you know, is cumulative. You know, damage is cumulative. You're going to progressively e-trip the target. That's why we tell everybody, you fire on everything. You put bullets on, but you aim, you don't just spray and pray. example, everybody goes, what good would it do to fire on the Abrams? Well, here's the thing, guys. Just like in World War II, we're trying to engage accurately. That bread box on top of every tank's turret is the susceptible target. I don't want to punch through the armor and try to get to the infantry or the armor crewmen. What you do is you focus on the breakables. There's a trash can that looks like a little rounded, it's got a little bump on the top of it, it's rounded to the back of the turret. Start smacking rounds into that and chewing it up. That's signal communications and part of their transponder system. Anything that's got an antenna, shoot it. Anything that looks like it's soft, shoot it. Here's a little hint, so you're probably not going to capture it anyway. Shoot the guns on the roof. My 30-06 M2AP round will punch a hole straight through that mag 58 up on the roof. I'll finish her right there. And since it's got the madoose the same way, I dump a couple of rounds into her keep hitting especially if it's fixed. That's mean, that's not fair. You shot the guy with guns. Yeah, that's the whole point. Their coaxial guns are remote fired. The more rounds you put into that area and the more damage you do, the more it's going to go no ticky, no washy. And they probably won't be able to fix it. We're doing that. Yeah, exactly. Hit them, hit them, hit them, hit them, hit them, hit them more. The chicken guns, the .223 rifles, you know, the light rifles, guys, I know, I mean, mean there. But those weapons, no, they're not going to offer as much. That's why when you think about it, you've got all this stuff like when you watch, what was it, Terminator Resurrection, they're all coming in with AR-15s. He's got to stick his boot on the Terminator, the Terminator infantry and dump a magazine into its head to kill it. It's like, yeah, well, he's got the wrong gun, doesn't he? Well, you fight with what you got and you'll fight with what you got. But here's the thing, why under gun when at this point we can have supremacy and we have penetration, we have range? The big thing is that Desert Dust won. Guys that I trained years ago went into deployment in Desert Dust and one of the jobs of the units that went forward was to shoot artillery tubes with depleted uranium .50 caliber rounds. and there were lots and lots of those made. Now what did that do? Well you put a hole in an artillery tube or a tank gun tube, she's finished. It might be a big 70 ton Abrams or a 50 ton Russian tank but it doesn't make any difference guys. You put a hole laterally through that gun tube, that tank's finished. No, there's no spectacular blow up and there's no flame or whatever but whoever's stupid enough to pull the lock on on the tube there and fire Well, guess what? It's going to be very impressive. That will be impressive when they're stupid enough to do that. See, that's the whole point. And for a lot of the artillery, it can be knocked out. It's not dynamic. It's not exciting. Just reverse. But smaller equipment can be shot. See, that's what gets me about, you know, like, guys, you ever thought about what that small arms fire does? Look at it this way. Hellfire missiles. Has anybody ever gone up and looked at a Hellfire missile? I have. You know there's no armor protecting hellfire missile at all guys. So when you see that stanchion left and right on an Apache, when you look at that and you see how they're free hanging, if you've got the ability time to flight to be zero zero, in other words some hypervelocity ammunition, something really cool and things just sitting there, you dump several rounds into that hellfire. Not of the helicopter, into their missiles. into the equipment on the racks. See, nobody thinks that way because they're not being conditioned that way. All that ordinance is susceptible. It's the throwaway. It's designed to go one way. It's designed to go out and die. So it's not exactly, shall we say, high priority for defense. It does sometimes get a little sheet metal protection for guidance. But that's about it. And any of that, when they cap off something like that, if it's got holes damaged, if it's perforated, and for instance the solid fuel propellant is compromised, guys, she'll fly right there on the launch tube. She'll fly right there on the rack. That'll be all she wrote right there for whoever it is pulls the trigger. That's what they don't want to talk about. That's how I believe a lot of these Apache wrecks that we're seeing looking at and trying to evaluate their damage. That's what's happened. An RPG smacks sideways into something somebody's already carrying is really embarrassing when it does what it's supposed to do. Still on the pylon. Mark, you know the thing is like without... they're still trying to push the fear of the robots that they can give voice commands and basically recognize you and like, you know, why would you find out a way to destroy it? Well, okay, if it can recognize voices, fantastic. Wouldn't it be great? That's what I told you guys. Don't throw away any of your cassette players. Don't throw away any of your junk that makes noise. What do you do? Every time they come up with this garbage, what do you do if you want to pull? If you're hunting something, you take it to where you want to kill it. Remember, I don't care if it's a tank, an APC, a robotoid, a hemorrhoid, or whatever. Infantry. It doesn't make any difference. You take them to where you want to kill them. You choose when you're going to destroy them. You dictate the battlefield. There's nothing significant that I'm seeing here with these robots. In fact, everybody is watching. Look at some of this stuff. How would you kill it? If you look at it, how would you kill it? The walking robots, okay? Well, how would you kill a person? What puts a person out of action? Boy was stinking a leg off. Now let me ask you something. A good old robotoid there might thrash around a bit. He can hop, bounce a little bit maybe, most likely not. So again, look at each item. How would you kill it? What do you do? We're talking about everything up to an Abrams. I'm not going to knock out an Abrams with light infantry fire, but I can do damage to it if I know what I'm doing. I'm not going to stop it, but I can make his life miserable. Now, on the other hand, with enough of the right weapons, there's whole yards full of Abrams tanks sitting down in Georgia and down in Alabama, and they still haven't fixed them after eight years, because we don't have the money to fix them. They don't want to spend the money to fix them. Some of them they can't fix. They're shredded cheese. So they're going to strip parts off them and two tanks makes one. Now that's an Abram. So if that's the case and we can knock those out, please tell me what he thinks could happen to the robotoids. Mark, I have an idea. How to draw the robotoids and so like make them, like I said, with good set players but make them expend their ordnance. How about you just cut faces out of the magazines and make nice little collages that they basically scan and shoot at? Well, there's the one thing first of all that I'd remind everybody is let's ask another question. Anybody ever done maintenance on a car? I did. Okay. Anybody work on a modern car? Yes, unfortunately. Okay. I put a gun under the hood and I put seven rounds of .45 into it. Is it a lot of fun working on that car? I'll randomly just spray the engine compartment. What's it like to work on it then? Just out of gas. Now think about this, number one is everything we're talking about, everything that's mechanical requires maintenance. Helicopters, here's the best example, helicopters for one hour of flying time, seven hours of maintenance. Right? for jet fighters. One hour of flying time, seven, eight, nine, ten and up to eleven hours of maintenance depending upon the plane. Now that's a big ticket item that has a lot of great delivery. Let me ask you something. Who's going to do all this wrenching on the robotoids? Who's going to do the... I've been in maintenance operations and we've all worked on cars and we've all worked on things. Guys, do you realize what kind of a nightmare they're talking about just in trying to keep this garbage running? Well, yeah, I mean think about it. It's like, you know, do you realize the piles of junk? I mean granted they can make China sport garbage all day, but China sport garbage all day, a 20% of it doesn't get to where it's going. And the rest of it is pretty, you know, again, it's going to die. Most important is, you know, like, we made some stupid comment, what was it the other day, that by the year 2023 or 2024, what is it, only 90% of what we feel are going to be the robots and 10% are going to be the operators, blah, blah, blah, blah. And my attitude is, well, great, they only have to kill 10% of the fighting force to destroy 100% of its potential to fight. I'm going to kill the operators. That's the first mission. Go find the operators. Well, everybody goes, well, they're behind this or they're over there. They've got to go to the bathroom. They're going to go. Eventually, you're going to go to the restaurant. You're going to hunt them. If everybody argues unconventional warfare, they're going to walk out and they're going to die. You're going to hunt them. But if you kill Timbren, let's say that they're in a battlefield. Guys, in all the MOs, the modus operandi for all of every war we described, you identify the priority targets and then you hunt the priority targets. Let me give you an example. How did we defeat? I'm going to ask you guys who are sitting here right now. How did we defeat the U-boats? What was the first thing we did to defeat the U-boats? Do you know? I think you said it the other day with the vessel with a bunch of logs in it. No, no, that's a Q-boat, the Q-ship. That was designed to protect our shipping. How did we disable and destroy the U-boat fleet? What was the first thing that we did? Catatonicma. We went after their fueling submarines. They were called Milch cows. There were only 12 to 15 of them. We hunted them with vengeance. The idea was that if you could destroy their fuelers, you could destroy their range. So rather than hunting the hundreds of U-boats, which by the way if we ran into them, we did hunt them anyway, but the first priority was by paying attention to radio trafficking, they identified the milch cows and they hunted them down and destroyed every one of them. This alleviated their ability, this destroyed their ability to reach the southern Atlantic or the far Atlantic easily and limited dramatically the performance and range. In other words, their maneuvering range. Remember guys, they could still straight line if they were shut up and they maintained radio silence. They could achieve great distance. But the Milsh cows allowed them to hunt. So you see, like I said before, let me give another example. The German Tiger tank. How did we defeat the Tiger tanks? Our tanks were inferior. Let's remember that. Our tanks were inferior. So we can't go heads up against the Tiger. So what did we go after? That's right, we went after their fueling, their fuel support vehicles. And here's the other thing, the Tigers had weak flanks or at least had to have maneuver flanks so that they could be protected because they were an open road tank. So typically, Panzerkaufwagen III's in the M model, the last model was most common was the M model, was the flanker tank for the Tiger. The flanker tanks in open and heavier tank battles what happened is the panzer 3 was actually a lighter tank than the Sherman So what they did is they decided okay? Here's how this works We take out the support and then we go after the sides of the thing it had the other works Yeah, go ahead. We are close to the top of the hour. I got a song. I want to play for you It's one of weird hours. I hadn't heard it before until Yesterday while I was looking at other holiday music I could pick up to play It's not a holiday song, but it is kind of funny. It's a song about the CIA. Oh, okay. Well, I'll tell you what. Again, we're gonna... Well, how much time we got? We're gonna do it right now? Yeah, we better do it right now. We're going to break. We'll do that and go to break. Guys, God bless the Republic. That's a new world order. We shall prevail, ladies and gentlemen. The Empire's on the run. And we are on a march. Day and night. We'll be back. Alright, we're down. And hobbled hair, richer mansions who faced it. Everything's gonna need to know racist. That's why I got a vision for the mission. Step on the alert, came on the road, I get my hat. Crazy things that have almost gotten me dismissed. Black term hates some head of state who wasn't even on my list. Microfilm buddy, will you? I tell you why but that ain't key confession. We'll start a waterboarding session. No hurry up, it's off American dictator. I'll assassinate him later.

I had a dream the other night that, well, I didn't understand. A figure walked in through the mist with a flintlock in his hand. 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. The 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 vie permits to travel and
