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. 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. 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 get 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 trampled, 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? The home of the free? This room? I can hear you. We've got pads static on the line and I'm still not sure where it's coming from. I thought I fixed it after him. He's programming. It's coming right back. Wait, you want me to hang up? I will hang up and try to reconnect again. You just stay right there, alright? I'm going to try using something other than Skype. This service is provided by free conferencing that... Access code accepted. You are the only participant in this conference.

His clothes were torn and dirty as he stood there by my bed. He took off his three-quarter cat. Mark, do we have you? Dad, can you hear me? Probably not. Don, do we have you? Doesn't look like we're getting any audio at all with the conference lines still, guys. So, uh, please be patient. We're gonna try to reconnect again. Hey, Don, can you hear me? All right, you're coming up clear. How do I sound to you? Okay. All right, that's good. We've got you, but we don't have Mark. We had him for a second, but lost him again. Okay. So you go ahead and run with it. With the noise from him or me? The noise was from... I got me as an echo now. That's because my mic's open, but the noise was coming from the conference line. We had a problem with it in the last hour, and it persisted into the beginning of this hour. I had to reset everything. Okay, I'll get a hold of dad and make sure he gets hooked up properly Okay, cool. Other than that we are up and on the air Don you're wrong All right. Oh wait. I think we've got mark back now I'm back. Actually I fell off it probably was while you were working the controls Yeah, I had to shut everything down and reconnect and then when I came back everything still sounded scratch and I just did a quick reset so Everything sound good now. Very good Thank you. We're on AM and FM microstations, CB base stations, and Ultra Net Technologies east and west of the Mississippi along with Alaska. We're on the homework network 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 the third and fifth pit and our friends in the recall state of Colorado. Waving the left coast where we have the great state of Jefferson, we turn back to the east, sweep across the plains, leap over the burgeoning banks of the Mississippi and land in the Smoky slash the Blue Ridge where the restaurant crew's Grandma Team's OK teams and the Ma Bell Grandma Consortium bringing us the Golden Spike. Now, Don, what's the date today? What is this special date? And real quick, it's gray and cool here today. Not cold, But it's cool. In fact, very comfortable guys. You're going to work outside. If you're going to get any roofing done, provided you work fast just in case there's any rain on the horizon, this would be the day to do it. Even now, you still have a time to do that patchwork job. You thought, well, I don't know. It's not too hot. It's not mushy on the shingles. And it's not going to be beaten down on you. What's happening up in your neck of the woods, sir? Well, on this, the six the 16th day of July, year of our Lord 2014. If you back the clock up about an hour and a half it rained for about an hour. It's drying out now, but the sky looks like it might deliver some more. I hope you got that roof and project done if you're in this neck of the woods. Again, the 16th day of July 2014. That's the strike down in the middle of the week, you guys. 1911 in one hand, full magazine in the other, introduce the magazine to the magazine, well, touch that slide release, now we've got one in the chamber. We can tell everybody it is weapons Wednesday, the perimeter is secure. And you know, there's plenty more where that came from while I top off the magazine. We now have the ability to offer equal opportunity coercive force against the aggressor, and the hand cannon will get it done. Still, the most commonly available in a, well, medium priced, I didn't say low priced, medium priced weapons system, the 1911, is out there in force in a number of different configurations. I recommend nothing fancy, no super trigger jobs or anything like that, it's not needed. Most of the work you're going to do, a standard 1911, as Mr. Browning put together, will get the job done and again is easy for the operator to understand no special tuning you can do it not all your personal choices like race cars well my Mustang needs this my you know that needs that my Camaro need you know going down the road you know line especially the SS Chevelle's come on jacked up in the rear jacked up on all four points oh don't forget the racing foil on the back you know that spoiler just made that car go faster and on top of that don't forget racing stripes hey all those are personal choice things but the basic pistol It's a 1911, that's fine by me. In fact, I don't care what you show up with. Hell, you can show up with a single shot muzzle loading pistol and it's going to be a hoo-hoo. Thank you for being here. Get my drift. But there are nice tools out there to put in the toolbox and maybe some people can't all afford SK. But, you know, Stanley tools get the job done. So we'll do the Stanley thing. Contrary to what Ralph Nader would tell you, I've seen a couple of Corvair's with small block Chevy's in the back seat that would just be carourers in a straight line. and around corners. Oh yeah. That would be just like, it's the precursor to the, in fact, you know what, that is when you bring that up. If you think about the engine position, that is what car was made in Pontiac that virtually had that configuration, the Fiero. Wow. Boy, you put some dots together for me there on that one. That car was more aerodynamic in reverse than it was going forward. Hey, don't you want to kill my pinto's? I had a whole fleet of them. Oh no, I'm talking about the Mustang that they hung that Mustang body on. Yeah, once they got done with it. Well, what's interesting is there's two directions that came from. I know this is Weapons Wednesday, but just a point about engineering guys and how things develop. One of the things to remember is that back before they made the Mustang II, which is what that was called, the Mustang II, it was the Pinto with Mustang body parts on it. Well, there was a guy here in Chelsea, Michigan, just my west by, what, six, seven, well, eight miles total, if you drive around a little bit of corners here and there. He looked at the Pinto and he said, man, I can have some fun with this car. He made a cord. He took a Pinto and converted them into mini cords. They were the neatest looking little car. They were two scale, proper scale, approximately because remember wheelbase width to length, wheelbase to wheelbase, etc. Then he made a Model T. The one he had already built as a prototype and didn't put out until last was the Mustang. Oh yeah. And he did all the groundwork for what Ford eventually did. Now the other thing is, where they got the... Now he just left the standard four bangers in all these cars. So the one thing that was the giveaway is when the Model T would go by. Everybody looked at it and the guys that were older go, there's something wrong with that car. It purged too. Yeah. There's no farts. It didn't have the old Ford block sound to it. Everybody's watching them go by and then somebody finds out that's awfully shiny and new. Each of these cars were built custom, but he had made a little production lineup. This is back when America had money, and we really did things, and we built stuff for ourselves in the 70s. What's really cool is that he made these three cars. Now they're all collector's items, by the way. There were only so many thousand of each that he made, and so many thousand, a couple hundred, that he made of each. But that Mustang idea Somebody in Ford saw that, slid it over sideways, and then from the research group, because I know the guys in the research group at Ford Motor Company, they're the ones who gave us a lot of the information on what's going on with the rats in Ford with regard to the UN. They all were the ones who were cutting the wall firewall and putting 351 Cleveland's and 351 Windsor's in Pinto station wagons. So, it looked like an absolute grandma car when it pulled up. Now, everybody goes, well, why did he put it in a station wagon? Why not put it in a runabout? Guys, think about the worst. It's like they did do it. I had a runabout. I had one of the, actually the explode-o-matics as they would call them. You know, the one where you don't hit the back of the other guest and it could explode while touching the bumper. It didn't happen to me, but I did fly that car, I will say that. But, I mean fly as in literally. I flew it just like a speeder in the second movie in Hoth. Remember when the snow speeders are going along and loose crashes? I did that. I know what that's like. I did that. Anyway, they would put them in runabouts, but like you said, the Arsen was just not heavy enough to keep it on the ground easily. And you've got to remember how much torque you're applying when that engine kicks in, especially if you're doing quarter-minals, guys. A couple of times, they ripped everything right out of the frame and right out of the transmission. Just twisted her right inside the engine box. First of all, they realized while they had to beef up the supports, that became obvious. That's what R&D people do when they're at home. They play with cars because they get parts from even Ford. The next thing that they did is they realized they tried to get any power delivered. It was the better choice because it was an old American steel car, guys. built to the old American standards even though those were cheap by you know by 60 years they were still Pinto station wagon is heavier than the average man full midsize or full-sized car today About that, but that was a small car mark. Yeah, I know I know a lot of people today you point at like a Camaro like 70 oh 68 to a you know come out Helen that used to be a pony car oh That used to be a pony car, you know like a pony keg? Yeah, like a tiny. It was on the market when it came out. There are nine participants in this conference. This conference is being recorded. Please announce yourselves. Sales were not going down. Fiera was cancelled when their sales were increasing. Do you know that the one single reason that they did away with the Fiero is because, and these are from the guys that are in GM that I know, that really engineering is because it was competing and taking a bite out of the Corvette market? Oh, it had that potential. The problem with the Fiero was its weight. Much like the problem, and again, it's a weapons Wednesday, but you guys, a lot of these guys drive these Mitsubishi 3000s. It's a dynamic looking little car. If you didn't know what it was and you were a little bit confused, you could say, did Enzo draw that up? It's a really nice looking car. Fast for its class. It's over weight. It's four wheel all the time drive. It's over weight. The Fienno you guys, you can take the plastic body off of it and drive it around. Hang headlights and taillights on it and drive it around. It reconfigured however you'd like to. Exactly. Which is what people are also starting to do with kits and that's something that they also didn't like because people were starting to make it look like a car that they want. Like a Ferrari for example. There were kits to make your Fiero look a lot like a Ferrari. And the big boys didn't like that because that means that it's like well you won't envy this car if I can buy a version of this car and how can you envy it when there's others that look like it on the road. Yeah. That was the whole point. The interesting thing is, I guarantee, you just brought that up, and it has been so long with the Corvairs. The early Corvairs had more of a bathtub look, guys, but if you look at the last year's model. It looks so much like the Camaro at that time that you really particular from the front views the gill the drive the windshield shape and everything yeah, look ordering views Yeah, if you were to look at it you would swear You know if you were to glance off guys got a Camaro cool And then as you get just like what's wrong with that car? And then you realize the sound isn't the same because remember that those last year models also had turbos All of the spiders. Yes. See, these are cars that we remember but they've taken and thrown into history because they were evil and bad then because they wanted to sell Volkswagens in America. And how to use the Volkswagens in America when you have a rear-engine mounted Corvair that can do everything the Volkswagen can do? And made in America. And made in America. You won't buy a German Volkswagen. Yeah, and the thing is that you got all the features and you still with the Americana you could take all the American engineered features and put them on the Corvair kind of like we're talking about where people started changing out engines and things like that Then it changes the world Now it doesn't mean the Volkswagen was a neat little vehicle and it's still a very versatile platform for all kinds of work it is In fact, there were several American companies that were building an equivalent. They were put out of business too. They weren't Volkswagens. They had the same idea, but because of the, oh that's right, the federal government, they did everything they could to destroy them to set up, which means it was the Council on Foreign Relations and all the shysters backstabbing us that did this. It wasn't to protect America because, by the way, Volkswagens were burn-o-matics too. I always bring that up for a reason because I can walk you right around this county within 10 miles where I'm sitting where I know of at least 40-some different Volkswagen burns. One of them very horrific because what happened in a high-speed, they start making the Baja's. Remember the Baja, Volkswagens? Well guys, they go fast. There's anything else if you want to, but what did they have in the way of a collision system or a body? Now what would happen because the gas tank was sitting in your lap is they would crush forward like they're supposed to and the doors would jam shut and the people were trapped because the dash would come forward and lock you into the vehicle and then at some point while the gas tank was leaking the electrical system under the dash would have something go wrong or was a little warm in some spot and you sat and barbecuing. It's shake and bake and the collision helps. One of them here on Maston territory road people were sitting right there after the collision and talking to the people, the explode-o-matic. All they could do was stand there and watch them burn. Guys burlier than me were trying to pull the doors open. Volkswagen Metal wasn't all that great. But when you crush metal together guys it creates another variation in geometry. So, just something to think about there. Anyway, cars, we got in there because yes, we are. Yes, we're older guys from that period when, man, you could wrench cars and make whatever you wanted if you wanted. I had a Diplodoba New Yorker. You know, all of the same car underneath, like you said Don, all you had to do was change the sheet metal and changing quarter panels and whole front sections and rear sections. Well, not so much the rear, but rear components and congratulations, you got yourself a totally different car. Three colors if you want, which in some eras become in vogue and then go out of vogue. So, oh well. Anyway, it's Weapons Wednesday. Before we get farther, night vision technology, you have it. How can we get hold of it, sir? How can we get a hold of it? Chronologically, the phone number is 231-796-8458. Again, 231-796-58. Goggles are gun sights. Green screens are thermal. I got that first generation gun sight 4 power right in your mailbox for 390 bucks. We still have a number of those. That number is dwindling. $390 right in your mailbox. The 800 number guys, they'll be happy to sell it to you for... $479 and if you call them three or four times you might get them down to $449 and then they're going to get delivery which pushes it back toward that $479. Call me. $390 right in the mailbox. The same part, the same warranties, all of the good stuff and you don't even have to travel to get it. My number is 2317968458. Again, 2317968458. Again, goggles or gun sights, you guys. I've heard a number of things. There's something I want to do here though. If you call in, I'd ask you to be patient. This will take a few minutes and look at the bottom of the hour without a break. So, we go. Now, you all remember about most of two years ago, we pointed out a gas station attendant over here on what would be like the left side of your right hand if you're looking at your map of Michigan Palm up. way over there in Luddington or Muskegon. There was a gas station attendant in the middle of the night. Somebody pulled into the gas station and there was nobody there. Now they never did find that girl. I don't know, 22, 23 year old girl. They never have found her. Now I bring that to the hour for a reason because you look at different examples of things and I want you to tie a rope around that thought there and keep it in your mind. As of late, Mark, you know, the media does everything they can to beat up guns and vilify and demonize and, you know, cajole gun owners and make them out to be bad, bad people every chance they get. And sometimes some thought lines, some things come to a lot of people's attention and the media can't ignore it. You guys might have noticed recently there's been coverage. Mark, did you hear about the restaurant in Colorado? where all of the waitresses are carrying. Me, they're all strapping apart. They've all got, you know, some of them got cowboy guns, some of them got slide guns, some of them got clocks, I guess. I did that on purpose. But they just wander around the restaurant and take that food over there and yes sir, no sir, and they probably get some pretty good tips, I would imagine. Now. Now, when they brought up some of these waitresses, they have gun training and the concealed carry and all of the things that allow them to do this. They'll tell you how to take their gun apart and how much they like shooting their gun and all kinds of things, but they're waitresses and they're armed. This made national news maybe two weeks ago. It came to the surface and then it went back below. We saw the periscope. Y'all, if you were paying attention to the mainstream media, you saw it. I'll remember that poor girl at the gas station. Now, recently I wanted to cover this, I wanted to bring this to the hour last week and I'm glad that I didn't because I wouldn't have been able to, it didn't occur to me to arrange these slot lines in this progression to bring up this as example. The poor girl all alone in the gas station and she's never seen from again. She was abducted from that gas station and God knows, God knows. You don't think that too many people would have a chance of grabbing one of those waitresses by the hair and dragging her out of the restaurant like a caveman, do you? He'd probably be riddled. There wouldn't be a whole lot left of him. They would pick him up with a vacuum cleaner and a scraper. It is loose, don't forget. Then the fire department would come by and wash what was left of the piece of trash down the drain. That's a rather lousy picture to paint, but it's good to be victorious. It's good to defend your coworker in this instance if there would be a need. Now, we'll move on a little bit because late last week, and I wanted to tell you about this right away, you guys. Again, sometimes the universe moves. Late last week, down here, just in the suburbs of Grand Rapids, Mark, A gas station owner looked up and here's the guy holding a gun on him. The guy gets the gas station owner to give him the money out of the register. I don't know if he was an owner. There's a fine question here. I'm overstepping on running conjecture there, so I'll back up a bit. There's a guy working at a gas station. He looks up and here's a guy with a gun. Guy with the gun gets the guy working at the gas station to give him all the money in the register. That ain't enough. So he takes him in a back room and starts loading up cigarettes into a bag. During this action, the guy working at the gas station draws his pistol and starts shooting at the robber. The robber beats feet through the door, gets into the getaway vehicle and leaves. Now there was no evidence of blood at the area of this shooting at the gas station. The gas station didn't burst into flames. One shot ricocheted off the wall and went through 14 gas pumps and little mushroom cloud on the horizon or anything. No one was hit by the 10 bullets that were loosed by this gas station attendant. Apparently he emptied a mag at this guy ten rounds. Sounds like he dumped one. I don't know. He might have had one of those plastic guns that had 16 and he had six left when he didn't have a target and he had enough sense to stop shooting. You're probably right. Ten is one mag if you think about it with one of the restricted mags. A lot of guys still have them because I'm not going to throw a Glock mag away. But apparently he emptied the magazine at this would-be Oh, well, you guys are still a villain. He had gotten a getaway car and left. Now, I bring these three examples and we throw them all in the blender here. You ponder on these things for a little while. One could well understand or might see that had that girl at the gas station gone through a concealed carry here in Michigan and bumped through all the hoops and loops and paid the proper fees, she might have had her own gun in her pocket or on her person that very night that she was abducted again, never to be heard from again, unto today. Now this brings a fine point because a lot of employers will tell you, Well, I know Mr. Johnson. I know Mr. Jones. I know Mr. Schmidlapp that all three of you took the concealed carry course at the same time and all three of you have been avid gun owners for years and every one of you knows what you're doing and Mr. Schmidlapp, I sat at your house one night and watched you blindfolded take apart three guns and then start to put the first one back together. Now that's a little astonishment by itself you guys. You think you can take your gun apart by it, you know, blindfolded? take three different guns apart, blindfolded, and then start to put the first one back together, and then you can really brag. But Mr. Schmidlap and Mr. Jones and Mr. Smith, I can see no reason why you would need to bring a gun to the workplace. Now, this is the next thing. We bring many arguments. We talk about the government is this and the government is that. While we're doing that, there are other things that we can bring up and bring as issue. Not only the gun right, I have a right to own a gun. How about I have a right to carry my gun, a law abiding citizen, anywhere I want? Now, with that in mind, But when the concealed carry was drawn here in Michigan to not just, well, you're a friend of the police and we'll let you have a, we'll let you concealed carry because, well, you grease the right wheels. A concealed carry on demand. They cannot refuse if the citizen is not a felon. When that happened in Michigan, they drew a number of laws that were inside the, you know, to establish boundaries. Like, well, you can't take it into a government office. You can't take it into a bank. Now boy oh boy, it sure seems to me like if I'm going into a bank and I want to go into a place where they keep my money, you know, why is it that the guy says they rob banks? Because that's where the money is. So if I'm going to go get some money, I want to be armed so the guy that wants to rob the bank doesn't take my money. Makes sense to me. There's one argument right there. that, well, we should be able to take our guns wherever we want. Now, here in Michigan, you still can't take your gun into a bank. That's a federal thing, the feds step on the state law there. We have brought to your attention, as of late, that the Michigan law says that, well, you can't carry your gun onto a school grounds. If you're concealed carry, you can't go into the school without letting first someone know. They do have the right to refuse you and that's where the probably comes from. So if you're there to pick up your child and you pull up to the curb in your car and you do not leave your car with your concealed carry, your gun in your car or on your person, you're legal. But don't step out of the car. Now that's the way it was for a good long time here in Michigan but I'm certain it's still that way in Wayne County. downstate Michigan is what the rest of the state refers to as the Detroit area. We brought to your attention lately that the prosecutor in Traverse City has chosen not to enforce that law. If you've got a concealed carry, you can stand on the grounds of a Traverse City school now. I don't know who pressed that forward. Mark, at the time you pointed out that Traverse City is one of the mystical places of the world, much like Denver. You stand there long enough, you start singing songs like Dead in Denver from Warren's Yvonne. You do that when you're a Mason and you look at that type of symbolism. But who brought this to the extent or who pushed this because they wanted to carry their gun on school property is unknown. But we've gained there. Now, the law when it was drawn in Michigan, you cannot carry your gun into a church unless the people running the church agree to your bringing the gun in. Now we point out a while back, remember someone went into a church somewhere and started shooting and a number of people shot the person? Now, apparently that was a church. I'll have to go back on my notes. They had a number of people who were cops or whatever and or had worked other jobs that were designated to carry guns and those are the ones that returned fire. Of course if you were smart, anybody who had a gun anyway wouldn't tell anyone. That goes over to my point. Thank you, Mark. Because if I was a person who went into a place where money changes hands and they tell you the economy is getting better and more people have jobs and all kinds of lies like that. But if I was that person and I had a concealed carry, I don't know. That's a question right now that I would have to ask myself because no matter my employer says he doesn't want to see the gun there or not, if the gun was involved in saving someone's life, I think that the employer might not be so hasty to fire the person who brought that to defense. Why wasn't there a school principal or was it a college dean that didn't park his car on school property so he could have a shotgun in the trunk. When a shooting started in the school, he calmly got up. seated to his car at a rather brisk pace, retrieved his shotgun, went back to the area where the problem was and quenched that problem. Remember? Now this, while we push for other things and while we push for the die-bulb machines to be taken away so they do not steal our vote, there are a number of actions that we take, no doubt. A number of us have decided we're simply just going to prepare and we're going to quit listening to what Boehner says or what the bad-eared guy says. We're just going to be ready for what they do. But in the interim, there are a number of areas where we can make progress, as example by the Traverse City persecutors' decision not to take people to... Now this gets into a fine point unto itself because when a prosecutor says, I won't move in that direction. Much like the federal prosecutor said under, and I'll go into this area, because just to use as example, the fearless leader said he won't have his prosecutor, the federal prosecutor, come down on states that are brought in medical marijuana. But still they do it anyway. Now this goes back over. I use that as example because if a prosecutor in a county says, well I'm not going to prosecute guns on school property. If it's a losto in the books, he can at his whim, at his pick and choose. What is that phrase? Arbitrarily and capriciously, prosecute anybody he wants and let anybody else he wants walk away. It's a kind of hollow victory, isn't it? We can carry a gun onto school grounds in Trevor City now. There are a bunch of big battles. There is one huge battle. We need to win back the country our freedom. We need to get it back onto a constitutional progress and a constitutional government. We know that. But this falls under that umbrella of fight, doesn't it? It seems to me here in Michigan, if I have a concealed carry, my employer shouldn't have anything to say about it if I've got a gun in my pocket. The state has already proclaimed that Carl Schmidlap Joe Smith and Frank Jones are capable of having a gun in their pocket and that they are sane enough to have a gun in their pocket any time they choose. So again, there are some places where we need to push this. And if I was working at a Sanoco or a Phillips 76 and I was the only person there, boy or girl, and I had a concealed carry, you'd bet I'd go to work every night if I worked that night shift. Every night I'd go to work with my gun in my pocket. Mark, I yield to you, sir. One of the interesting things is a lot of places, actually where I worked, we had a gun shop that you know, obviously we were running guys. The way the store was set up, we had an overhead office. In one time we had an attempted robbery in the middle of summer. This was back when the great coat and dusters weren't even in or anything like that. The characters from above I was looking down and I was just watching because they had me up there dropping some cash off for one of the clerks. I'm looking down and I'm watching these characters do a figure eight circle through the aisles. They're not looking at anything, they're just moving through biding time at about four minutes before the close of the store. And keeping their hands in their pockets, you're the one's wearing a coat, the other one's wearing a full length raincoat. And so I told all the cashiers and everybody else in the store as opposed to closing for all the kids, I said, okay, you guys go back to the fire door. They're, what? Go back to the fire door. And you know where the fire alarm is in the back office area? You know, in the back storage area? Stand by it. You're going to be the one to pull that. And the girls run through the door, slap that fire alarm, and you know where to go. Because there are other businesses in there. Again, people you could get to. Meanwhile, one of my friends just happened to be stopping in because he was going to take me home that night. So I loaded up two .357s, a 12 gauge shotgun while I was at the desk. Told one of the other clerks, I said, hey, come here, you know what you're doing. There's another 12 gauge right there. And then I went around and walked back upstairs where I had two of the, they were new at the time, the Marlin 500s. Well, forgive me, the Mosberg 500s with the eight round trench tube, right? I just made a point of, and they walked up to the cashier, the doors were closed, the guy had to walk there and lock the door. That's the one who told him where the other shotgun was. I said, here's what I'm going to do and you watch body language. They came up, they had nothing in their hands, they were walking up to the cashier. About the time they hit the very head of the cash register line there, just right next to the cash register, I racked 12 gauge from above and I made sure you couldn't see it but I'm standing there and I made the noise and looking straight down at him and the moment I did that, both sets eyes looked straight at me, then they looked straight at the guy at the door. Then they looked straight at the guy over at the other gentleman who was standing there checking the .357 out with the 12 gauge sitting in his arms on the counter. And they had nothing to buy and they really, really, really wanted to leave. Now, I don't know what their intentions were, but it's obvious that, well, for a moment they seem to be wanting to have a very special conversation with the cashier. Needless to say, the conversation was over. and very quickly they really really really really slash really really really really really wanted to leave now. Now nobody said anything, nobody barked anything, nobody threatened anybody. But there is that sound of that 12 gauge when it's actually taking around, we've always talked about this, you want a bar closer, you want to make a bar sound like EF Hutton, like an EF Hutton ad, you know go from ruckus to barkin' to whatever to Dead silent everybody love games. Yeah, close to 12 gauge with two real shells in it when it goes thud and or pump a 12-gauge shotgun with a live round and I'm not talking about ejecting I'm talking about loading guys, and I don't care who the hell you are Everybody's got everybody's attention now In other words, we're all looking to see where that came from who was that who was it who was it? Oh, maybe I better think for a minute here Basically, that gun just created a very large crowd equalizer across the board because nobody knows for sure where it is and nobody really wants to be the first to find out. There are tools without even the actual visualization. It's like we've talked about, psychological warfare operations. Going back earlier still to the story you were talking about with the girls at the restaurant. I started opening during maybe a month after we opened just because I am a woman in business and I was there early hours and late nights. Remember that? Think about it. This is a person who values her life. There was a man beaten to death in an alley behind my restaurant last year. It was very unfortunate. Now, of course, that guy might have been showing up to get an envelope from her. When I read that, I'm thinking, oh, local mob stop by to shape down restaurant owner. And that's when the girls only had those pieces of those small baseball bat billy clubs. Oh, oh, did I say that? You see? So it's like, well, looks like we got an upgrade. And they didn't get the message. So everybody's carrying a gun. And the thing is, I would say this though, because the girls all have, have you seen the pictures of what they're carrying? Oh no, it's like in the summer cowboy holster some of the plastics. Yeah, the cowboy holster is a, she's carrying a hogleg 357 Black Hawk. Yeah. Okay, we're talking. I'm not a fan of her. She gets that out God help your hind end. You know what I mean? Because she's carrying. I don't want to touch nothing from that. Yeah, you're pretty well finished. But you know the one thing I would point out is this. And I mean no matter what they're carrying, like I said, you show up for the day of festivities, I don't care what gun you're carrying. Congratulations, you're better than the cowards that didn't show up. Okay? But the one thing to remember, and this is through, we've talked about ergonomics, construction of the weapon, fitting the job. women have smaller hands. This is why for years the Smith & Wesson's small J frames have stayed in business for so long. because the K frame is a little big, the N frame is a dirty hairy gun and that Black Hawk by the way is a really nice firearm. If you got one you don't need to change out just learn to use it well and you can use it as a light rifle when the time comes to. Know what I mean? Seriously. They kill bear with those guys you know what I mean? Oh yeah. I've sold a lot of Ruger Black Hawks in .44 .357 Magnum and those guys were going out to hunt deer with them. Hey, you hit them right in the chicken plate, they fall down. That's right. And so again, I'm not complaining about the weapons, but remember, for instance, you know, the same picture, there's a picture down of the girls in front of the restaurant, like by one of the windows where they have the logo. It's six girls and three are facing one way and three are facing the other towards the center. It reminds me of a picture of the Apache Scouts back in the Indian wars. The reason I bring that up is because while the Apache Scouts loved hand cannons, anything they get their hands on, you'll notice, and this was something we used to talk about in gun circles, the Indian population of the Apache were smaller. They were more in the Asian line. They were smaller people, number one. That's why people confuse us when they talk about the Indians of the East and Indians of the West. The Indians of the West were a different population group. If you look in the pictures, you'll notice they're all carrying handguns. You'll notice they are all carrying rifles, but look at the scale of the weapons. Very popular with them were the small Navy and Sheriff Model 36 caliber guns because it fit them. In other words, they wanted something that ergonomically fit, they could handle comfortably and they understood hit over, again, maybe hit. The other thing is the rifles, all light saddle carbine lever actions. Now one or two cavalry 45-70s and even there, shorter weapons because of the size and stature of the shooter. Look at the average length of the weapon they were carrying. Take a look at the pistols they were holding. What they actually either held or they had in their holsters. You'll see consistently there. People go, those are tiny guns. Well, they're just as lethal as anything else when you put the bullet where it's supposed to go and I guarantee those guys standing there, they've seen a hell of a lot more fighting than the average bear in both sides. Either in the native wars against the natives or in the US government versus the Indian population. Take your pick. Don't think that they were just coming out of Eden when we weren't around. They weren't fighting each other. Yeah, that's why they had a warrior cast because they never fought each other when we weren't around. And Geronimo was never in a battle before he met a blue coat. That's why he was an experienced warrior before we got there. Yep, he was fighting to keep the Mexicans out of his land. That's right. Back then he called them Spaniards, by the way. Remember? Now, here's the thing, again, cool idea, but the other thing to remember, like they mentioned here, Don, and I know we're almost at the top, can you stick around for a little bit after you've already got to go? I've got to go, Mark. One of the things about this is the cooks, he doesn't carry a gun. Well, that's probably true because the cooks, you know, got done the way, but what they probably didn't mention, there's a 12 gauge here, there's a 12 gauge here. I would do. There's three gallons of boiling water. Yeah, exactly. I mean, think about it, but the idea behind it is what's the big deal. In fact, if I were telling the restaurateur what to do, I'm talking to you the same way. If you have certain applications, like if you're in a situation where you have moist environment, I eat outfit boats all the time. For the Gulf of Mexico, I used to have boats that went down into the At that time the stainless steel mini 14 came out. The AMT backup and the AMT 45 hardballer came into play and Mossberg made a stainless shotgun. Now those were the perfect combination and I would recommend any stainless guns would be the priority for this type of environment for the cooks area. Why? It's a steamy environment. It's wet. And again, when it's hanging around, the last thing you want is for him to try and work in action and for it to resist. Well, stainless illuminates most of that. Then the other issue is ammunition. So you've got to be careful and select your ammo. Let me point something out. If you've got a wheel gun and you're going to be carrying it all the time, you notice I mentioned those, like that .357 Blackhawk. Notice I mentioned those nickel cased .357 rounds that UN ammo has. Guys, no matter how long you carry, that .357 nickel case is not going to oxidize in the wheel. In other words from body moisture carrying just natural moisture in the air look how it done It's been pretty damp in Michigan last couple of days hasn't oh yeah humidity's been way up You guys all better be checking your weapons if you're carrying them What you want to do is dump your ammo clean out the inside of your mags do a quick brushing through those wheel gun chambers and Lubricate them lightly and then what white rag them out again and then check your ammunition and I would not carry the ammo you carried yesterday or the day before. I would set that aside, reach into your box, pull out six more or five more rounds, load up the cylinder again. Just case in point, see how these things all attach? And by the way, the girls do look pretty cool because some of them are carrying 12 gauges, some of them have, I mean, guys, there's a pretty good potpourri of I'm going to shoot you ours if you get in trouble at a restaurant, which is cool. And that's why they have standing room only for the restaurant, Don. Oh, I bet. Everybody wants to be there, because everybody knows they got back up at some stupid place. The plan shows up. Try a good meal. Yeah, I can- Look at that gun. Yeah, I'm relaxed. I got my back covered, right? Yeah. Sheila there will shoot him first, and then the girl over there and the barkeep will get the rest. Don your number for night vision, please. Hey, that number is 231-796-8458. God bless the republic.

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 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 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 brought. 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?
