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. Envist 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 born. Your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedoms for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you'll 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 torture freedom burning bright as I awoke he vanished in the midst from 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 to 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, to dill the land of the free? one day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters both on and behind the lines in occupied territories west, south, east, and northeast.

We turn back to the east, sweep across the plains, a leap over the burgeoning banks of the Mississippi. and land in the smokies slash the Blue Ridge where the restaurant crews, grandma teams, OK teams, and the mama bell grandma consortium of retired telecommunications workers bring us the Golden Spike. It is a beautiful day, perfect day today for working outside, just a little chilly now, get a little cooler, there's no real cloud cover out there. A little high stuff that may not last. It's not going to keep a whole lot of whatever heat we got in. So if you've got anything still to get pulled in tonight, I've got some paint. It's got to be taken care of, but I'll have enough time after the two-hour block here to get it in. But it is a beautiful, beautiful Friday. It is the 7th of November. It's a six-year of open Fabian socialist and Soviet. socialist occupation of America with K2000 and 14 old earth calendar or Mayan crazy town, crazy town. So anyway, here we are. It is a, oh you just want to beat people, you just want to beat government down. You just want to get rid of all the parasites and the skanks and the nadir wells and the the the nanny state parasites you just want to beat them down to a bloody pulp don't you I do I'm finished with them I really am there's a point where it's like you just won't stop as they the nutcases get more you know arrogant power it just becomes apparent you're gonna have to shoot them but in the meantime beating them down or busting an e-cap on it wouldn't hurt at all you know just two by four times pop there you go why you're gonna stay what now you're probably stupid you're gonna cause more problems anyway Boot to the head. Why, why? Boot to the head. Anyway, so much stuff and now's the time to get it all done. One of the most laughable things here, conservative plan to stop Obama's executive amnesty. Yeah, yeah, yeah, the big plan. You know, the plan's gonna be there. You've seen the plan before. Why stop? Or I'll shout stop again and you know we're all got a big plan. I can picture this coming here. We got a big plan here. It's a really big plan and wait a minute, it's November. In fact, it's the first week of November. We're gonna leave for Christmas break and we just didn't know how we signed those executive orders while we were gone. Yeah, yeah, we're kind of stupid on that. But we'll just get fooled again. We will just get fooled again. Anyway, the first battle over the direction of the GOP, since Tuesday's tidal wave election is quietly building, is conservative race to construct a plan. The plan. It's like you're listening to the Baron Ravein of Harkonnen along with Fade there and don't forget you've got... yeah. Remember the men-tant? The crazy one? Yeah, my plan. The plan! Yeah, or, sorry, the plan. My plan. The plan. Yeah, well, Piter didn't last very long anyway. He sucked in some poisonous gas and he didn't quite make it. But remember that, yeah, when you're talking about the big plan. We've seen the big plans. Remember the spending cap and the big plans there? Why, we could have martial law, don't you really? We could have martial law if they didn't hand all those bucks over to the Senate. So what's the likelihood? In fact, let me start with this. They're going to hold their ground. Their week need is a day long and all they're going to do is bend over and Stick it up your hind end. Oh, you thought they were going to bend over and take it. No, they're part of the scam. So anyway, the Huxters are out there, the fake, you know, Republic rats are out there in place of the Demikins getting ready to shove the illegal alien invasion up everybody's hind end and go, we just didn't know. Let me give you a little hint. Christmas break. all of a sudden there'll be this flurry of paperwork and everybody will say, you know I was so far away from Washington my horse and buggy couldn't get me back there. The Christmas break is a whole month long just about because we don't have any planes or trains. Oh no, we have to go by buggy or ride horse to get back to our constituents. And then we just have no communications. It's really timely in any way shape or form. So we would never, never, never know when Obama does this instantly with instant communication the way it is anywhere on the planet. In fact, even off the planet. You know what I mean? Yeah, but you know it's going to be a mystery. I'm just warning you in advance. Wait a minute. Here, what does this sound like to me? Wah wah, wah wah, wah wah. Really? Wah wah wah wah wah. As Charlie Brown sits there and listens to the wah wah from the hooksters in this case. So anyway. Huddling in Senate Jeff Sessions, Republican of Alabama office Wednesday top conservative aides sketched out a plan to include language. Bad, bad, Barry Satoro, bad, language prohibiting Obama from issuing employment permits to illegal aliens in an upcoming omnibus spending bill and settling for a four-week stopgap bill if Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid baltz in the last days of his rule. Let's see, now hold on, I don't have the whole piece. By the way, this is from the Trench's World Report. This is from Breitbart. So, you know, it's like, okay, this is the play acting out of the district of criminals. Let's see, read baltz, of course. Under the plan, Republicans would come back with reinforcements in January to try again, likely needing six Democrats to join them to send the bill to Obama. If the President vetoed it, the GOP could pass another short-term bill while building momentum for a veto override vote. This is an 80-20 issue. We've just been sent here in an historic sweep. If we don't think we can win a debate with the White House on an 80-20 issue, then exactly what debate do we think we can with, said Senator GOP, said they sent it to GOPA. Well, I don't think they'll win much anything. Even these key characters have no spines and no intestinal fortitude whatsoever. I think they're a bunch of lame. I think it's all fake to begin with. To be quite honest, I think they're a bunch of stumble bombs, and all they do is play in us, and they're trying to buy time for the ring-knocking bank buddies so they can rape us the rest of the way. Plan cuts directly against the wishes of Speaker John Boner and incoming Majority Leader Mitch McConnell to clear the decks of 2013 business to give the 114th Congress a fresh start. McConnell and other Republican senators expressed a desire to pass a number of bipartisan Screw America packages to begin with to get some early victories under their belts before tackling more controversial matters. In other words, they're going to try and ramrod this garbage all through and you know the traders McConnell and Morner are working with the other traders to jam us with the illegal aliens. That's the in reality if you look at the beltway ease slash, you know, commune ease the way it's bring way they play games Let's kind of build on these successes before we get into the budget, which could be a little more contentious, said Senator Ron Johnson, Republican, a Republican rat of Wisconsin, the upcoming chairman of the Senate Homeland, suck, you ready, and government affairs fellow, so he's a prostitute, he's some stinking whore from Wisconsin, dirty piece of trash. Obama's executive amnesty could instantly dismantle the plan on its own and conservatives in the House and Senate are both working to prevent passage of a year's worth of government spending only to see the president flout the law days later. On a close conference call with GOP lawmakers Thursday, for example, Representative Louie Goldmart, Republican of Texas, began the open mic session of the call. by advocating for a short-term continuing resolution CR bill to give the GOP more leverage than an omnibus would. However, the last speaker, Representative Tom Looney, Dooney, Rooney, slash Petuni from Florida. Yeah, expressed trepidation about setting a potential government shutdown in motion. Who cares? You know what? No action with the Fed is as good as anything else. It'd be better. Here's how it works. Don't finance anything. How hard is that to figure out? I agree with an article that was posted here a couple days ago on From the Trenches. You know, what part of just not doing anything do they understand? You know what? Well, he's just going to pass it. We just got to pass it. No, we don't. Block it all shut it all down if that's what it takes. That's what it takes That settles right there. See so the whole thing's BS. You hear all the other qualifiers here Well, you know when they could just go right ahead and they're just so it's all it's a waste of our time It's a lie. We're going to be betrayed by these characters. We need to vote with our wallet and buy more ammo I have complete confidence that they're gonna do to us exactly what the Republic rats have done all along for this last Well, the first two decades of the 21st century. What do you think? Nothing other than screw America. So what do you see with these stuff shirt POSs? No different from the other communist stuff shirt POS. Betray us and hand the country over to foreign nationals. That's what they're here to do. And that's what they're doing. So, just want to bring that up again and emphasize. Now, another thing. It's done here at Eulogy for Carrie's mom, Ann Dale. Note, this is in memoriam of J.D.'s wife's mother who just passed away but was such an extraordinary woman. J.D. has asked if it would be okay to memorialize her here with a short write-up to share with the world the passing of a wonderful soul for which the world is now a lesser place. So that the reference at the end of the eulogy is understood, Mrs. Dale had gradually lost both her eyesight and hearing in her later years, but never once complained, blamed, or displayed any measure of self-fity, nor ever used it as a possible excuse to compromise her dedication of love or loyalty to family, friends, or God. She remained steadfast and wholly, incorruptibly, Incorruptible, forgive me, slap me in the microphone, right up to the moment that life left her body. Now for everybody out there again, that's N-D-E-A-H-L, and that's J.D.'s mother-in-law. Again, let's get this right here, Requiem for Mrs. and Elizabeth Ryan Deal. June 9, 1932 to November 1, 2014, 82 years old. Survived by eight children? Whoa! 19 grandchildren and two great grandchildren. Married February 7, 1959. Death of spouse Garvey Deal November 9, 2012. So he passed before she did. Eulogy by her son-in-law John D. U.S. Marine fighting tyranny. At the funeral I knew the children of our beloved mother would eulogize her with stories of what she meant to them as their mother. I knew that as their children they may miss some of the more striking aspects of her nature and character. That I, someone who has known her for 30 plus years, could attest to, but saw in a light that someone viewing her as their mother might overlook when calling her mom. It is with this notion in mind that I offer the following considerations for all. Forgive me all, her children and the greater mankind of the world to know of her, as I myself, having always drawn inspiration from the greatest historical figures, noticed triking simulators between mom and some of my heroes, role models, people of admirable character and beliefs. The most common quality in all my heroes is one of incorruptible and indomitable spirit. I witnessed this same exact kind of character in Mom, as they always called her. Mom was a small, unassuming, reserved person, neither physically imposing, nor possessing anything of any animus disposition in conduct, just as Gandhi was. Gandhi once walked into the heart of a British institution of power, a court, and the entire courtroom, including the great and powerful judges, stood for this little brown man. The respect he commanded was the same respect this most humble of women our mom commanded, not through power or fear, but because of her unshakable strength of convictions. Both Gandhi and our mother had that singular bedrock of an incorruptible spirit that gave their frail bodies the strength of Mount Everest. Another historical figure that is a personal hero of mine is of course the highest decorated U.S. Marine this country has ever had, Smedley Butler. He was not one of my greatest heroes for what decorations he had or what he received, but for what he refused. Smedley Butler was once offered the entire United States as a bribe to assist and condone acts contrary to his loyalty and patriotism. but refused it because he was wholly incorruptible, like the gentle soul of our departed mother. I have placed the small, unassuming, reserved, some might say frail of body woman, our mom, in my patheon of heroes, including her with some of the greatest this world has ever known. for her strength of convictions, for her love of God, Jesus, Christianity, family, and loyalty, which was not for sale at any price, even if the universe itself could have been offered to her. Considering the power of her virtues and the legacy it grants us, let us reflect on what that means to us all. Mom was true to that which she loved, God and family. and did not lead by speech or admonition, but led by example to what the highest standards of that faith means. Her loyalty and devotion are what makes her a role model for all. This holy and corruptible spirit has been passed on to her children and the grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and all her future generations, which truly is the greatest gift that can be passed on. Whenever time challenges, whenever a time challenge comes, we know her descendants have this bedrock virtue in them and all others have the gift of knowing how a small, unassuming, little Irish woman could resist and easily ignore the greatest evils that could be brought to bear. As an example for all of mankind to emulate. We, her immediate family, and all mankind can draw on this strength and example of her incorruptibility and make Mom and her departed dad proud and make the world a better place for it. As one of her sons, Ciren was eloquently, so eloquently stated, Mom gave us the gift of sight and hearing, not with our eyes and ears, but with our hearts. God bless you, Mom. We will miss you, the world will miss you, and we thank you for all your love and unselfish giving, as well as the ultimate gift, the gift of demonstrating by example what an incorruptible, family-loving, God-loving person looks like and acts like, and the standards that such role models hold themselves to. Love, John, Kerry, your family, friends, and the world. and And for everybody out there, give that a thumbs up and share. I'll tell you what, that's in Henry's Scroll. Take the time, plug it in, and share. Why not? It's fun. You know what? We need to do this more often. It's what the social media was for so we can remember our friends and family and all the people that we're standing with and in many cases, we're fighting for. What do you say? So again, take the time, give it a thumbs up, go over there, you can tweet it, Google it, you can put it on Facebook, and I suggest you do that because we've got a family here, all of the JD's friends, that's all you people there, the chat room, and all you people there that are listening on Liberty Tree Radio tonight. Now, your perfect timing, like I said, not because we're at the bottom of the hour, so I'll tell you what we're going to do. Night vision technology, guys, look outside. And by the way, since I've been talking, we had clear sky. Boy, that was a mistake to even comment about because from the West, in the time it took for me to start the program, until I finished reading that article, I've watched this front, this line, heading right overhead of us. Now it's all to the south. So the clear sky is way over there on the horizon, guys. Now the only good thing is this might keep some of the heat in, whatever little we got. And so it might not be quite as cold tonight. That's not a bad thing. But we are heading towards Darktown, night-vision technology. We need it. You have it. Guys, it needs to be in your toolbox. What changes do we have coming up? What things have been happening with the inventory? And how can we get a hold of you, sir? Go ahead, please. Well, something to point out, you guys. When the clouds roll in, it's really hard to navigate by the stars, isn't it? Now I can't help but ask that question, Mark. You know what's coming next. Do you have a compass? Does everybody in your team at least have a crackerjack compass? Wow, it's dark. I think I'm going north. Let me check my crackerjack compass. Sometimes you don't have to cut it right down to the tenth of the degree, you know? The reason you cut such fine lines is, a draftsman knows what a, and a shooter knows what, you know, you know what a minute is, a minute of angle, 1 60th of 1 degree, and if you're only off by a minute, let me see, that's a quarter inch and a hundred yards. That's two inches and a thousand yards. How much would it be if you were going across the sea from San Francisco to Hawaii, that quarter minute off? You'd never make the islands. You would be, how does that go? But in shorter situations, just knowing north in the middle of the night, like that crackerjack compass might really come in handy. And you know, you've got a couple people in your team that are really good at navigating. Those are the ones that have the lens attic compasses. and the ones that have those little blue lights, they're almost pink-purple that just don't get read by any of the night vision. And you can turn that light on and the guy over there with the night vision won't even see it. It just doesn't have any light in his frequency of sensitivity. And he'll read that cover. But we got to go this way. We got to go toward that tree there instead of the other tree on just the other side of the other side of that hill. We got to go. See that hill there on the horizon? That's where we got to go. So again, a compass. for just general direction in a compass, very fine navigation. And you should have, everybody should have a crackerjack compass at least. A couple people should really know how to work them. And they should at the same time, when you're sitting around with nothing to do, be teaching everybody else what that compass and what that map and what the land, they all have a relationship to each other, don't they? No. There are some pieces of night vision like you can get option for a PVS-7 or a NV or a PVS-14. It's a single tube that hangs from your helmet or your goggle or on top of your M16 pattern type gun behind your gun sight, generally like a Trigicon or an ACOG. Well, sometimes with option you can get a compass right in those. I just thought I'd mention that and use that compass. We're not lost, are we? It's dark. Lost in the dark is worse than just being lost, isn't it? It's a double whammy. But when we talk about night vision, we won't dwell on this for a long time, but you guys, there are particular pieces of night vision that a navigator would be good to have like that aforementioned PBS 7 with the optional I mean the compass is where you just you know you look and the compass just Indexes right in front of your eye. That's a pretty good thing at any rate you guys if you want to talk about night vision I've never brought that to the hour before mix those two thought lines But someone did and brought it right to production to thought line if you're looking for night vision you guys I've got that first generation gun sight for power $390 right in your mailbox. There's not a great big pile of them left Again, $390 right in your mailbox. A first-generation gun sight that is .308 capable. My phone number is 231-796-58. Again, 231-7945-8. Goggles or gun sights, green screens, or... And I've been around since, you know, the conditions and they're gonna do this and they're gonna do that. And you know, there is a... nature... Sometimes the scales need to be tipped over for a minute until they can be repaired. Let's just look at it like we've got a job to do. It might make the overall font line a little easier. Mark, I yield to you, sir. We need your help to make sure that we put the tools in the toolbox where they belong, but let's do it with a friend. So again, get hold of Don after the program or when you can. If you have any questions, ask him. If you want to, you can ask questions right here. Give us a call, 712-432-0900. And then the room number is 957-464-0.957-464. pound sign for everybody out there. It is a very busy week. Here it is Friday already. Even as I speak down the last of the blue clear sky where there's light is way over on the southern horizon like a sliver. So guys, the weekend is changing yet again. All you guys that are up north, some of you are listening as you're driving to Naga-Hitcham or New Camp Stasa. It's going to be getting colder and you better have taken everything with you in the wet weather, cold weather gear anyway because you're supposed to be deploying as you will fight. We train as we will fight for. We will fight as we have trained. Our friends up there on the big range, let's see what time is it? That's what's weird. Now we've got the new clock difference here. Don and it's 534 and it's dark and everybody used to shooting to like seven or eight o'clock. So everybody's gonna be I mean the big range is still open the 1600 yard range has got to still be open but boy you're getting a chance to practice the squinty shots right now guys. Hey Mark. You know what I mean? Think about that. Go ahead, caller. Jump in there. Yeah. Hi Mark. Hi Don. I got a question for Don. This is Mark. Don, you got that's a really cool scope. I I was looking on the internet on Henry's site today and there was this article about this new Zoom feature. It was pretty cool if you watched the video. Do you think one day that your scope will ever have a Zoom feature? The replacement for, this is probably what you're looking at because to have that zoom is digital. And is that an ATM product? And I answer a question with a question that's kind of rude to do, I apologize. But ATN's replacement, my biggest source, you guys, for green screen, I've been with them since like 1995. They are replacing the first generation with digital. When you do that, they bragged about digital with the green screen, but it was digital power control. They had automatic brightness control and bright source protection, all of us done digital. They bragged about that. To take out the image intensifier tube and go with digital image intensifying, like from a video camera, and to take off as many filters as possible so that It works real well in the low light. The company compares it to second generation, but here's the caveat. I really hate to do this because again, I've sourced from this company for almost 20 years. They say, oh, it compares to generation two with the illuminator on. So generation two with the illuminator on is as good as first generation with the illuminator on, third generation two with the illuminator on. And that's kind of a broad because we brag about wings per millimeter. But higher end stuff, the company is coming, I'm talking like almost $800 worth for retail. Let's see what we can do about that in the not too distant future. How does that go? Nudge nudge wink wink. But they're going to want almost $800 for something that is a digital replacement. And here comes the cool thing about it because I've been harping on it since January when we first heard that they were going to lose the green screen. With this piece you can touch a button and it'll go from black and white to pink and purple to a now get this because their Biggest promotion on this device is it can be used in the daytime so you don't have to change from other to go from light to dark one of the You know you guys I'm not trying to I'm not real happy with white light And this is what we've come to feel happy with a digital image intensifier right now But you can touch a button and turn the light green. And they call that the night vision mode. Now, I've taken a couple of devices and played with them in the dark. And in low light, it works like first generation. And I've described it right on the air here. Standing here in the dark, and one particular groovy line, like 65 yards, 60 to 65 because it's irregular. away, and they're pines, and they're like some of them are 40 feet tall, so they offer a good shade. With the moon behind them, so I'm looking at like a wall, you don't get any image in there. Now, with the moon behind them and just crepping the, you might get a little bit of image in there with second and a little more in there with third because it's a little more digitally controlled, but say that it's equivalent to second generation, with the illuminator on, we've talked about the caveats of turning on the illuminator. So let's give this, let's see what comes from this, how far they develop this. You know, it's like some people want the new car as soon as it comes out the first year edition, man, that new Corvette or that new Mustang, the new Mustang right now and people would be lining up to buy it. But in five years, people will say, man, the second year of that body style, and I'm not trying to say that this is what going to happen is what, but I expect a little bit more. to the extent that it is truly like second generation without the illuminator. Then I'll get on that bandwagon and say, boy, this is what you need. I'm a little bit leery of this product right now, but you can change colors with it. You'll have green, which is, I don't know if it's patchwork. They've listened to me on ... Again, I've been dealing with this company next summer. It will be 20 years. And they've listened to some of my suggestions and hopefully just pushing the button and turning it green. Well, they were listening to Don and perhaps some other people were saying, we can't get rid of green screen entry level. But now that entry level is over $700 for a gun. I was just thinking, I take these damn glasses that I have to wear off and put my eye right to that scope and just zoom in and zoom out. These glasses, they're a pain in the ass when you're shooting with a rifle. I just want to have all that optics right there built into the... I'm sorry. When you take your glasses off, then you adjust your diopter on the rear of the scope, the adjustment between your eye and the main body until it adjusts to your eye. We've talked about that on the air. The boots that are being supplied. Now, you guys, let's offer up this thought line. If you've ever seen a PVS2 or a PVS4, they have like a little eyelid at the aperture, at the boot. And it's hard to describe in the audio world. But literally, it's like a little mechanical eyelid. When you press your eye to the boot, the two halves of that rubber eyelid open up and now you're looking into the device. And when you move your head away, they clamp closed. And that's how much the United States military thinks about light discipline for their shooters. Now they've gotten a little more lax with some of the stuff. It's just a simple tube boot, you know, like the stuff we offer. That's how much they think of light discipline. If you can work to the light discipline, and again, I'm not sold on performance in low light yet. There's more to be learned there. But if you can work on light discipline, like bring the gun sight, shoulder it up, address it, the gun, the boot is on your eye, and then you reach up and turn the device on. Now that's going to be the best way to deal with something that emits black and white, or something that you're looking at a black and white screen that leaves white light on your face. And we've addressed this since January. You know, I hate that issue thing because when you say it's an issue, it's like, what is it, the next magazine? Is it issue number 1742-13? You know, that problem of losing green screen. You guys have, you know, every one of you that could has made the best of that ability to get one. We've talked about it in Plain and Simple when they're gone, they're gone. I can't tell you how well the entry level replacement is going to be a true replacement for first generation unless you turn the illuminator on. We've talked about illuminators. If you're not familiar with that phrase and night vision, let's touch on that for a moment. It seems redundant and there are a whole lot of people out there that are saying, here he goes again. If you're walking around or if you're nested into some place, and you're looking at something with your night vision. Now this also works for viewers, let alone gun sights. And if you're overlooking an area and you wonder what that is, and, man, I thought I saw it moving, I just need to know what it is before I shoot it, and you reach up there real, real. and you just know you're in the right place and you touch that button and the illuminator comes on and everything in your field of vision right in the center of your gun sight gets a lot more plain to see and you see that that was a raccoon and it sure looked like a helmet to me for the longest time and I wish he would have chattered but that guy over there on the hill looking down into that area that you're sitting at he might be at your flank he might be at your rear. and he's looking with a piece of night vision, he might be a mile away. He sees that illuminator come on, and that's akin to motion, to human perception. We've addressed this before, you know, color, shape, motion, the color, the light in the screen, the motion in the same, they mix together, color and motion in low light like that. It just draws your mind to it, not to mention his gun sight. And I hate to do it so dramatic, but you know, if it's not done that way, well gee, we could be all casual about it like, hey, you turn your illuminator on at night, it might kill you. And we've addressed that from the get go since we brought night vision to the hour. But I would tell you that there are illuminators big as trash can lids and even bigger in the fronts of tanks. And tanks don't move fast and they kind of lumber. Granted, they move a lot faster than they used to. like zombies. We've addressed this before. You'll see lasers, you'll see illuminators, you'll see all kinds of things you ain't never seen before on upcoming battlefields. We've addressed that before, haven't we? Sometimes I strive to practice prop, but you'll see all kinds of things you ain't never seen before. It'd be good to see them in the dark. That four-power gun sight, you guys, that's my entry-level green screen. Real true night vision. in a gun site. That's all we've got left is gun sites. If you're looking, my phone number is 2317968458. I had, let me see this past Tuesday, Mark, not to be redundant, and Mark, one of the white screen gun sites in my hand, and I had one of the big end four in my hand, like the $12,000 Thor, and was rather impressed with the, when you look because the Thor you're getting a true standing there in the daylight because the Thor it was a you can use a thermal device day or night you guys it doesn't matter the light level but to use the white screen device that again the upcoming entry-level gun sight in the daytime you guys if you've got a first-generation device take it outside and you know make certain your pinhole covers on and turn the device on and man you can see a mile away in the daylight can't you? You can see that car moving way over there. It might be a dot, but you can see that far away. And then as soon as the light gets low enough that you pop that cap off and look at the same area, it is a quarter, man. You can't see that mile away very well, can you? So again, to try to read how this stuff would, in particular the gunsights aforementioned in the daylight, is a next one possible. And that's a cautionary. I don't think I've ever brought that to the to the floor before, but a lot of people will stand out in the daylight. I'll do this in a room when there's lower light level. I'll do this even inside like an auditorium, like a gun show. But if someone does that to you outside, they show, oh, this is what you need. And they've got the pinhole cap on and they get you to look down a road. Well, that's more a salesman. You need this. That's more a salesman than someone who's trying to put something in your hand that is going to be useful to you. He's OV-pressing you because you will not get the same performance after dark. Mind, you know, there's just another third generation. And third generation is even more notorious. Second generation cuts like at 32 lines per millimeter to 35. That was entry-level second generation a long time ago, and you might find some tubes out there. in that category. Most of your second generation is going to be entry level like 45 to 52 lines per millimeter now. And that's the generation if you can find it. We want to look for at least that and it goes up from there. Third generation is going to start at 45 and up to 52. That's old third generation because that's in the time frame that they put a different film in the front end and it allowed a lot of more light in but it stops off that was bad for the tube to a great extent. They, oh look what we can do with this. And they did and this is what we got. So you've got greater than second generation, not by a whole lot, but enough to say there's greater low light performance. But again, I remind you, the biggest step up is from first to second generation. It's not that great an improvement from second to third, but what you also gain there is lifetime. And by the time they started building third generation for a while, man, they were stretching those glasses pretty thin to the extent third generation tube these days goes 68 to 74 lines per millimeter. Now that builds such a picture on that dinky little television screen that you're looking at that it almost looks like you can stick your finger in it. It almost looks like you could just pick up a rock. If you're laying over your gun you just pick up a rock and throw it into the picture. When you're talking 68 to 74 lines per millimeter but that's top-end third generation. But if you get somebody on the phone and you say, man, how much is third generation cost? And he gives you a top-end price and sells you a third generation that's maybe 45 to 52 lines per millimeter. He really made out that day and you were kind of bamboozled. And we've addressed this before too. So again, one of the reasons why I'm cautionary about the, you guys, there are people who are saying, oh, these are some good things. And oh, man, the white screen gun replacement, You can change colors with it. We'll see how it works in low light. You can change the color to green and that's the biggest bane that we've talked about. But let's see how it works in low light. I haven't had it out in low light. I can't promote it until then. There are some cool things that the high end stuff will do in this entry level stuff. If you want to, you can record your kill. You can record your shooting. Even if you're just shooting tin cans. I've always wondered why, you go out and you buy, when the small Canon video cameras first came out, the digital ones, they could fit in the palm of your hand. How they would digitally zoom in, zoom out 10 times power and all that, they made a real big deal about it. Now it's 20, there's some now they're 20 and 30 times power. But I always wondered why they couldn't do that with a regular scope. I mean, just, you know, just push a button, ee, ee, ee, you know, zoom in and zoom out. Most of your daylight scopes for traditionally, one of the bragging rights until you needed a lit reticle and it seems everybody needs a lit reticle now is here comes that phrase, no batteries required. Right, simple low tech technology. Yes. Once you start adding more bells and whistles, remember that that's more things that can go wrong. The only reason that it's affordable right now is because of the slave China tech. If it weren't for the slave China tech, you would see it. You would still see the technology appear, but it would be a more realistic price based upon skilled labor and the quality and standard would have been very different. See, I'm not really... It's an interesting idea and because it can make it so cheap, we're now used to junk being put into our hands and it only running for so long and then breaking. I think that's the one thing everybody doesn't think about. I'm using equipment that's 40 years old and it's not super high-tech, but you know what? It still works after 40 years. We don't expect to see any of this stuff lasting for very long that they've created, mostly because they're willing to sacrifice quality for production, obviously for production costs. and the hopes that, well, initially they captured the market, they control the market. They're not even allowing anybody else into the market. The Chinese know what they're doing now. They've eliminated all of the quality products. They now are the product line. And so whenever they introduce, they can first do the intro themselves where in the past they had to usually compete with somebody who might actually build a better product. And then they would crank out their version of it and swamp the market with it and take a bite, take a hit. In other words, we'll sell it for half what it costs to make it for a little while. We saw this in every industry. Now they don't do it quite that way. They will give you an introductory price. But since they completely command the production market now, that's why people were starting to complain, why is it things aren't as cheap as they were? Because the Chinese got what they wanted. This Chinese pair of pliers that used to cost 89 cents cost $3.29 now. Yes, it cost just as much as the pair that used to be made in the US because that was the plan. You mean that we are made by those people who don't have a job anymore? Yes, their manufacturing is gone. In fact, progressively in the last what, two years, we haven't really talked, well we talked a little bit about what we did. But the control media No discussion about the hits on the American tool industry what was left in Pennsylvania because Pennsylvania was the big steel You know the steel mills were gone first the steel still kept coming in in one form or another or from one source or another But progressively, the American manufacturers have fallen one after another. They're not all gone. We can still find some American tooling here and there, but it's few and far between from what we have that used to be multiples on the shelf. I think it'll be nice. I'm amazed that she had eight children, did she? Eight children, 19 grandchildren, two great grand- In fact, that's her immediate family. Yeah, and guys, she was not a very big lady. She was a very big lady. No, no, I clung to the idea, not knowing at the time. I go to reading through history books. Who's the kind of people I wanted to emulate? When you read, when you look into what characteristic was, he was quiet. Most of the time it was because they were incorruptible. There was no price they could be- focused. Again, like you said, it's a sad loss, but we always remember with pride and we should always remember with honor. That's a hell of a life to have. Boy, 95-pound woman and eight children, pretty darn good. If you said about someone's passing, that's a blessing because this means it was someone that you felt was worthy of knowing, someone you enjoyed being in your life. compared to when someone you dislike and you say, oh, that guy's an S-bag. I'm glad he's dead. The person brought nothing to your life. Exactly. It was a very good eulogy that was written there, sir. Thank you. Thank you, J.T. Yes. Yes. And just touching on that subject you're talking about, people are aware of that 95% of our 1960s industrial base. No, it's vaporized. I'm walking through the ruins. And all the equipment is gone. Well, the latest factory to fall here, like I said, the Chinese came in and in one night, between 9 o'clock at night and 2 o'clock in the morning, they cleared an area out that was a factory that originally was one of the Bendix factories that did the Nordenbaum site, by the way. Well, actually that's the building, the Bendix Corp here at the indexter. Argus Optics, the Argus C3. The factory that they cleared out is where the Argus factory was. They came in with cut-off saws and in the past the Chinese would leave the little stuff. Guys, their rule now is leave nothing for America. And they came in right to the power supply, shut the power supply off, everything came off the walls from there and they didn't undo it. They walked right in with cut off saws and they had a whole system for clearing out the factory. There wasn't even dust bunnies left. No furniture, nothing. The semi-trucks came in one after another and boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. Other than the damage cement where they brought in the high lows to move the machinery, the last big machines, and they crushed the cement out, so the asphalt outside. The tracks are still in the parking lot. I just saw them yesterday. That plant is sucking vapors now, kids. Well, you mentioned the tooling and dying. People don't realize that's the backbone of industry. You lose your tooling and die, you ain't going to rebuild your industry in any reasonable amount of time. It's a tool on that trade set. The tool and die and broaching. Most people don't realize how important broaching is. Yes, it is. And there's really only a handful of companies in this country that do broaching. If you were attacking America and you were to target us for manufacturing for destruction, there are key points. Broaching is on the one hand vitally important, but there are only a handful of companies that actually do it now. They can actually produce all the tooling and machinery and everything necessary. If they were gone, it would literally drive the industry to a halt. Well, especially where you've got any of these fixtures or fittings where you have to do final trim and fit work, wherever you have a bearing surface to bearing surface. Broaching fixtures, it's the broaching process that completes and brings everything to bear so that you at least can match tolerances. If you don't have that ability, then you can build, you know, the whole idea of multi manufacturing points is a wonderful idea. But if you don't have the ability to be able to bring those components to proper tolerance and spec, you know, no matter where they are, the machinery and the effect, even the equipment is fairly small. by comparison to a lot of the other industrial processes. Final broaching and the tools that are used to do any of the broaching work or fixture and fitting or pressing work that can be done after that, without that we're finished. The thing is that it's one of those jobs again where it also is very labor intensive in terms of the skilled labor that's involved. Without that, everything, everything. Every internal combustion engine ever let me see it's not as simple as every yo-yo But somewhere in between there everything becomes a one-off piece Yeah, I know Go ahead Colin we're almost at the top. Yeah, I just wanted to mention back to like and pumpkin steel if you could go back to that history in regard to the production lines and control of those production lines at the specific supply delivery for the building projects in New York. They have an astounding considering as they move the rest of the evidence. I'll tell you what, we're all, we're just a little past the top. We're gonna close here and then we'll go into the next one. We'll get into that a little bit. With regard to working their way from the east coast, there's two waves of destruction here. We can't blame the Chinese for everything. Belgium has done everything it can. That tip-sweet, rotten country in the middle of Europe has done more damage to this country in the last as much damage as the Chinese have from the West, the Belgians have from the East with regard to their attack on America's East Coast Industries. And they started right from the docks and worked their way in, especially our steel manufacturing. So there's something that we do need to touch on again.
