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 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? 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. O sons of the Republic, arise, take a stand, defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the land, preserve our great Republic and each God given right, and pray to God to keep the torch of freedom burning bright. As I awoke, he'd vanished in the mist 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 in 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 fought to keep What would be your answer if he called out from the grave is this still the land of the free? Okay, while I got you Eddie could we could we spin that ever popular disc from Willie Nelson at the bottom of the hour, angels flying too close to the ground. I'd really like to hear that. If you could do that, please. But hey, you guys. I'm sorry, Don. Can you repeat that? It was the head you turned down a little. The Willie Nelson song, angels flying too close to the ground. I'd really like to hear that. All right. I'll see if I can dig that up. Thank you. Thank you. And I don't mean to be a distraction or diversion. Sometimes it's good just to be something else. Hey, you guys, you're tuned to Liberty Tree Radio, broadcasting to all points of the compass and to each and every one of our brothers and sisters on and behind the lines in occupied territories. We might have Mark. I'm going to read, go out on a limb here and say maybe that was Mark ringing in there. And it is, matter of fact, east, southeast, and west. Ladies and gentlemen, you are listening to us on Liberty Tree Radio, FRMG.com, Indian and Freedom Talk Radio.com, we're on AM and FMI Core Stations, CB Bay Stations, Alternate Technologies East and West of Mississippi along with the Hallmark and the Golden Spike. Well, I'll tell you what, before we go any farther, Don, the date today, sir, is already... Hey, it is the 15th, I haven't done that yet. This worked out great, Mark. It is the 15th day of December. You're of our Lord 2014 and you know there are those that are playing the numbers the other day about 12 13 14 and a whole bunch of people and all of that but for all you number people that you know hey keep keep worshiping your numbers that's what that just keep doing what you're doing and eventually it'll lead you over a cliff or someplace where where your GPS can't figure out where you are at any rate I couldn't help but do that either hey it is the 15th day of December we're just about done with this year aren't we we're a half a month away from 2015 Now, I don't know if you got an agenda mark, but there was a couple of things, subjects that came out this morning I want to elaborate on ever so slightly because someone called and said, Don, would you elaborate on how deep the pool is of slaves in China? What did you mean by that? Well, we had to talk about what is your time worth and we had to talk about what a, oh, we went over to to what is an American Union man's time worth versus what is the guy who doesn't have a union job worth versus what is the guy who's here working illegally, what is his time worth. You take all of those and you just throw them out the door because, well, you can get somebody to work a lot cheaper than an illegal alien in America if you tell them, We have a job here in Chungkang-kingtao in the factory and you can come here and work until we don't like your work anymore or until you're late. But we'll pay you more than you'd make out there in the rice paddy or out there trying to harvest rhinoceros horns. Well, you know they don't do that. I went from a little bit of basic, a little bit of ridiculous there, but now I did that on purpose because, you know, the middle class in China is as big as the population of America. Soak that up for a little while and you wonder why they're buying Buicks and Mercedes Benz and the place just reeks the CO2, be it from a fact that the middle class of China is as big as the population of America. Now bear that in mind when we talk about the coming subject, the horrors that China has been subject to over the last couple of generations from the 50s, from the 30s. Let's go back to the 30s because Mao, we could do that over the last three generations literally because Mao was battling the free Chinese at the same time that the free Chinese were battling the invading Japanese. There is a lot to be learned from that. Talk about history repeating itself. I repeat right now. The Communists were fighting those that were fighting for freedom in China when those that were fighting for freedom in China were fighting off the hordes of Japanese invaders. How does that go, Mark? Never let a good crisis go to waste. That's a perfect example of it, what the Communists did in China. It is the perfect example of it, although those words weren't run into that particular array in English at that time. I'm certain it's an ancient Chinese proverb to waste. Because that's what happened there now understand that the Chinaman that fought for freedom Were being stabbed in the back by the communists they were being attacked on the flanks. They were being denied supplies there It was so Sun So that if you read the little red book Mao is a is a plagiarist of the one of the across great centuries of history Mao was a plagiarist if if if I sit here and read something to you I'll tell you the author Mao will sit there and read some son, Sultuya, and tell you it's word from him. It's the gift from the Chinese God, the communist God. Well, he can't do that anymore. He's no longer here. He's gone to meet his maker. Let's go back to that time frame because as the communists worked and weaseled into places, they were in such a place at the end of World War II that they watched the Japanese army surrender and pick up their guns. That had never happened in history before. You can see films of the Germans surrendering to the Russians, the Germans surrendering to the Americans, and the stacks of bayonets as tall as a man and 20 strides long, and the stacks of helmets five times bigger, and the stacks of sidearms, much like the stacks of bayonets, not to mention the stacks of Mausers. That was recorded into history. But when the Japanese army left the continent, it basically left its arms there. Communists picked the... Now imagine again, the... were subjected to these people who had just thought, whoa, we won the war, hooray, we'll be free from this oppression and immediately turned around and were attacked again by their own people. Immediately turned around and realized that they were under siege, blood, death from their own people with an external influence from that rat bastard born in Germany. A lot of people think Marx They think, oh he was a Russian, wasn't he? He had to be a Russian. That's where the Communists came in. He was born in Germany. That's why the Germans were fighting the Communists in the streets then. But that fight went across continent, across another continent, down into Asia. Now, the Germans won because, well, the Generalissimo was backstabbed, among other things, as example by the aforementioned surrender of arms. Now, The communist terror grabbed hold of China and beat everybody who didn't swear allegiance to the China, to the, they were taken, they were shot, they were just, they were in any way, shape and form that you can imagine a horrific death. They were exposed to it. If the communist could have killed them two or three times, they would have in order to make example of them. We killed you. Ha ha, we wake you up. We kill you again. Ha ha, we bring you back. We kill you a third time. Too bad we can't wake you up no more. Kill you a fourth time. It's just physically impossible. If they could figure out a way to do it in order to bring example, they would do that today. They would do that today in the arenas where they drag people out and publicly execute them. Ha, your brain's blown out. We give you a new brain. We kill you again because you deserve to be killed again because you talk about freedom because you have part part and you have three pages of a Bible that we found. We kill you three times, but impossible kill you four because we can't bring you back from third time. Darn. If they could do that, they would. And I know I'm being ridiculous there. But that is, if they could do that, they would. Imagine the fear that that would instill in the people, let alone just being dragged out to a public arena and your brain's blown out once. Imagine what that does to a people. People start to think, I don't want that to happen to me. uh... as a real little everybody on national television for a video of dancing this is a fiction guys when the first opened up china and as they were yapping about nap nap nap nap and get live footage of the executions were played here in the united states both the stadium executions and the behind the factory executions and then they were told round i shut up and they did but now understand thank you mark because that only reinforces it thank you But now understand that the people sitting in these stadiums, they're that middle class that we referred to earlier, that middle class of China are the survivors of the Red Terror. They are the sons and daughters of those who lived through the purge of 1968. They are the sons and daughters of those who were not connected with the Gang of Four later. Most every one of them is a survivor because their parents did not oppose because they do not oppose. Now there's great talk about freedom coming to China and we'll see great changes in China because see they don't practice communism like it is on paper and and well there are people that are getting rich in China. Obviously they must be because the middle class is as big as America. We go back to that now. Let's study that for a moment. How big is America? When we first heard that mark, the middle class of China is about as big as America. That came to us when we were about 270 million people. So let's stick with that number. Let's ignore the aliens that they try to count as Americans, be they Mexican or Chinese or Indian or whatever. Let's ignore those. Let's stick with about 270 million. Imagine that's the middle class of China. who drives the Buick has a house and a mortgage and is a good here. Understand this, is a good party member or a family member of a good party member. This is how this has been built. Now you wonder about, let's go to that portion, let's swim out into that deeper portion of the pool. Because if you're not driving that Buick, if you're not part of the middle class of China, you either are one very small class of elitist rulers the great mass of people that they count a billion and three quarters of Chinaman. Now subtract that 270 million and about 50,000 high elite party members and look at the rest and there's that pool of labor. There's that pool that will work for let me see the equivalent of two bowls of rice, a blanket, a half of a fish the promise of two a day Understand that and understand that statement that came earlier in the day about the depth of the slave pool in China now mark you only point out that this is where they're going and These are the reasons why oh it's been pointed out on the hour before but you know It wasn't Don's decision and it wasn't some marks decision and you know we don't even make a stinking good pair of socks and a you know, BVDs or T-shirts. Levi's? Levi's aren't even made in America anymore. You can go and find some upscale something, some Tommy Brob, some Tommy something or other, you know, fickle and shickle group. And oh, they might be made in America, but they're probably farmed out of Guatemala or someplace under another different sweatshop. And there's that word. But again, if you elevate somebody's basic life, they're happy for it. Why I used to live in a mud hut, but now I live in a mud hut with a steel roof and it doesn't leak here anymore and my family is dry at night and my life is so much better. See how the slave pool would appreciate that 50% increase? lifestyle, that hundred or five hundred percent increase in income, when you make about seventeen dollars a year or twenty eight dollars a year, if you start making four hundred dollars a year, man it's like manna from heaven. Think about it. But this is where the people who are selling you out are going. Only because the 21st century is the century of China. How many times have you heard that? While we witness politicians saying this can be America's best time America's best days are ahead of us. Well, Mr. Politician, and we don't have you know that goes across the board many politicians have said that we I don't have to say this guy said it or or Reagan said it or that that guy said it many politicians if they don't say that exactly why they they almost exactly promise it to you don't think so again you guys look at what's going on and Mark, many times you've said, buy tools. Buy tools that allow you to make the tools that, well, most people think are tools, like wrenches and screwdrivers. You need tools to make them. We've told you, well, You know, go down to Walmart if you have a seamstress in the circle, not even in your family, in your group of people. If there's a seamstress that's not working, go down to Walmart and buy her three or four bolts of camouflage material and put her to work for two or three weeks and pay her generously. And she'll still make more than the Chinaman makes and she'll be happy with what she makes per hour and whatnot. And you'll get BDUs, double and triple-seamed. Cheaper than what you'd pay for well retail and they'll be brand new Won't be some Chinaman sweated in them or died in them or was shot dead in them or stood there and held somebody While they were shot dead and now this is this surplus fresh from China you could wear it now So again, you know, it seems sometimes like Don is rambling all of that is connected together Every single portion every word of that can be stitched together and does make an ugly mess, doesn't it? But again, I'll repeat this and then I'll yield to you, sir. The more you can do for yourself, the more you can do for others around you, the more you can do for yourself, the more you can stand alone, but the more you will be needed by others. I yield to you, Mr. Kornke. One of the things to remember, especially about the factory workers in China, as far as what they call a middle class and what you would call a middle class, well, it is a big step for them. But it is nothing like what we perceive the middle class to be here, except that perhaps our middle class has been dragged down or has been dragged down the rest of the way until such time as they cease to exist if they have their way. Just something we need to take into consideration there. So, again, when you're looking at a lot of these statistics, put them into proper perspective with regard to their era. We used to, they've not changed their policy in factories, for instance. You make a goofy, happy meal toy, and the eye is the wrong way every, say, 20 or 50. For some reason, you're not feeling good that day, but you decided to work anyway because you get punished for not working. So you go ahead and do exactly what was recommended because otherwise you die. You know work, you die. And unfortunately you made too many goofy Happy Meal toys wrong and you literally do out behind the factory. Now they may have made a little more kooth by picking spots where everybody has dragged you for the day. But remember that in the police departments in communist China, and I put these in all the videos, all these pictures from the videos that have been done by the Chinese, showing their mat there everybody every cop over there that all these American cops called their brother officers they all participate in executions They all, in fact, even if you pay attention, go to the videos I've done more recently, I've incorporated wherever possible the training classes where one new police, you know, cadet or student is on one side of the victim, the other one on the other, and the other one blows your brains out. And you get when everybody takes turns being the victim, being the executed. for the sake of practice. One would only hope that they'd use a real pistol and have an accident. Lots of accidents, as a matter of fact, that would be preferred. So just something to take a look at there and we can give you a better feel for what we're talking about with regard to operations and why it is that everybody needs to be heads up and understanding where they want this to go. This is part of the Red Terror program. On your supply and mark, I need to make example of that please because you struck another spark. When that cop holds somebody down for training, he's getting that training. And when he holds somebody down with the other arm, he's getting training, now he can do it ambidextrously. But when he's the person getting held down, that's not training. That is a warning to that cop. That is a psychological blow to him. Just in case you don't know what it feels like, let's put you in the chair. I love you. Mild electricity works fine. Only in this case, everybody, of course, the interesting thing about this is a number of different things that they do to, what's fascinating is the number of training images showing them practicing mass executions and the variations in what they do to include even, you know, wanting to simulate the recoil of a rifle. I don't know about blood splatter or smear or fluids matter. But everything else pretty well is duplicated depending upon who it is that's giving the course. There's something taken into consideration there, especially with these creatures. Let me ask you, would you, even if you were watching your fellow soldiers being trained in this, would you submit yourself to, I'm going to be the victim right now, here and now, and you're going to hold this arm, and you're going to hold this arm, and I'm going to get on my knees, and you're going to pretend to blow my brains out? It's like falling back into your buddy's arm during those special therapy sessions where you gotta build up confidence. It's a trust thing. Only look at the clique that is building trust. Boy, those brothers have to trust each other, don't they? They are all they have. Now I wanted to elaborate on this China thing, Mark, because we talk about the Internet being shut off in China. Well, there are sparks of freedom here and there in China. Freedom is being suppressed. Talk about freedom is being suppressed. There are those who say, what's happening in Hong Kong, Don? We haven't talked about Hong Kong for a number of reasons. I think we're going to go to break. I hear some music coming up. I could be wrong. If we're going to go to break, bring the music up and we'll do that. Hong Kong for a long time was a standalone entity. Hong Kong only recently has been brought back under the sphere of influence of communist China and been allowed to operate under capitalism alone as an experiment. According to the very few elite that run China, Hong Kong as an experiment has failed because you have people in the streets asking for wanting to have say in who are their leaders. You know, like election and proof that the election works and is not rigged. Sound familiar? Sound familiar? But Hong Kong is not an example. You have to understand this. It's not an example of China as a whole. Because Hong Kong was a place that a lot of people fled to when the communists took over. You have to understand, you know, we talk about leaving America. We've talked about that disrespect. But at that time Hong Kong was still part of China. But Hong Kong was under British influence. So Hong Kong did not suffer the communist invasion. Hong Kong was given back to the British at the end of the war. And then Hong Kong was given to China. What Mark? In the late 90s. Remember the pomp and circumstance. But Hong Kong, you cannot look to Hong Kong and say, that is an example of Chinese, the Chinese people rising as a whole and begging or damaging people who are under the other regime who are now under this yes yes thank you which is not well again much of it well it's no improvement wait a minute we all know how the communist chinese work which we warned everybody and they didn't need a warning they were right there i mean like around the corner over the hill past barbed wire past the checkpoints that's where they were it was actually more checkpoints anything not too much barbed wire Well, kind of like aliens. So yeah, as far as the protest there, that's just the people that remember what, well, the British had it. And at least we pretty well were able to do kind of what we wanted. Of course, let's not forget, see Hong Kong, another interesting thing about Hong Kong, Hong Kong before the Chinese communist Chinese got it, already had full car tracking. When you saw these movies where the BS had the high speed chases, we're about to go to Hong Kong. And they're acting like it's in the United States. Guys, in order for you on the car in Hong Kong, you had to submit to having the car lowjacked right from the get-go with official government machinery on top of everything else. Everybody's car is transponder, except, obviously, for the mob bosses. They are their special done, so they don't have to worry about that. Organized crime didn't have to worry about it. They paid the cops. And the cops, they didn't worry about it because they were getting paid. On the other hand, everybody else, 100% tracking 24-7. Now with the cell phones I would assume that you know as much as anything if I'm in part with them is you can even tell everybody We are loosening things up, so we are going to relax the car tracking Why is that well because all you have cell phones now, so we'll track you that way though because they already have the monitoring system in place and the mapping system guys We had a good music was back trying to keep your spirits up and your feet put down. I do someday, the greatest healer. Sound like Willie Nelson to me. Pretty sure it was. A quick reminder here guys, we haven't touched on this yet for this hour. The new drawing for this week is coming up and we have more goodies in the goodie box. In fact, we got a nice little vehicle support or backpack support package with a number of different utility items that are going to be in the single kit. For all to start out with, we have another bowie knife. Actually, we have the last bowie knife. There aren't any more of this model. We picked up what we could. We have another folding set of knives. We have two more packs of soap, and I'll have to double check that, I'm pretty sure we do. And we have two more of the baseball hats, and of course we have the utility cargo slash either for vehicle ops or for your backpack for putting support tech together, especially if you're doing a cargo ruck. In addition to that, we have a number of other items to include a cartridge holder for your, it's actually a cartridge holder. all you know come on guys we will recall you so it's not a it's a stock bra is what it is it's about it's a but stock stock bra for holding cartridges for your uh... bolt guns we'll look into three when they were cited from the use of the heavy gun typically with the out six a prime in a quick placement shooting i got five rounds but i wanted little extra am on the rifle uh... the ones i have worked and these are going to get fine were black and that's okay effect was some of the last but uh... again these are nice item to have uh... where again you can start store a certain of ammunition on the rifle in a ready station think about it for reloading quickly right from the stock right to the weapon some people policy is that you fire will fire off of your battle gear but if you get into a bad situation where you get separated because you do nothing but grab your weapon you've got five or seven or nine rounds in the magazine putting out if it's an infield or not some of the ends up to ten As far as the 1917s and you carry five more rounds to make sure you got a little more firepower. First of all, your accuracy, not volume fire. Aim. Hit them once, hurt them hard, put them down. Just that simple. So we got a bunch of stuff going on. $10 to get your name in the hat five times. and you go to w w w dot liberty tree radio dot for m g dot com w w w dot liberty tree radio dot for m g dot com and i want to go there go to the donate keys uh... don't eat any amount of the category put in ten dollars or twelve or fear or well even numbers ten twelve sixteen twenty thirty dollars for every ten dollars you put your name in the head or every two dollars in other words uh... it is five names that happens to have been and increments accordingly from there and that's go to liberty three radio dot four m g dot com that emma machine gun m g machine gun dot com and then once you get to go to the door eight keys and we got that a whole lot more rich we're gonna have a number of different things in this drawing uh... so that we're gonna add a little bit to it each time and bigger items to the third drawing is going to be uh... actually this time we will have one of the larger items in it Each one is going to have some really cool stuff, including some unique things we just can't get anymore. Let's see, everything went out except for one item that has to go north. A, for our friends, north. There's one package, we'll have to wait until tomorrow, but it would have been gone today, but they were really late into the program here by the minute, they just closed the post office. Unfortunately, the markers they had wouldn't deal with the way I package it. Just to make one little correction. It wasn't even a correction, it was just an addition. That will be fixed and that will be gone. Everybody else, watch your mailbox. We will of course get down the address for the fork, knife and spoon set. Who won that? You don't have to come up with a name. You don't have to come up with a name. I don't have to come up with a name. But somebody won it. Hooray! Yes. And so again, actually those are, I would have to double check to see what those are going for, but a lot of the stuff like that guys, they aren't going for pennies anymore. In fact, the teens, the 20s and the 30s are more what to expect than a lot of the exotic guys because it's been a while since the Afghan War. It's like Vietnam. It's been a while since the Vietnam War. I can just go out and get him 14 mag pouches all day. Yeah, you can, but you're not gonna pay a dollar apiece for him anymore. We did. We paid 40 cents, 60 cents, and I thought it was, you know, they're getting to a dollar a piece. My goodness. Well, now, dude, it's Vietnam stuff, man. I gotta have a bunny tail hat out of the back of my piss pot. And then, you know, born to kill dudes, born to kill. Everybody had that on their hat. No, everybody had different things on their hat. And not everybody wore a bunny tail. You know, a raccoon tail, okay? Dude, is everybody had a bunny in their outfit? No, no they didn't, as a matter of fact. We were from Platoon, we know bunny. Yeah. Yeah, he didn't know. Well, I don't know, it looked like the guy was standing over here with his rifle and kind of let you know right, you know, face first, so he didn't know. Well, you brought up another thing that comes to mind. Somebody left a patch at Debbie's work on the counter. Oops, must have forgot it. But you know, it was a military patch. And you know it was attached by Velcro. Now if I had a patch on my uniform that said, we kill for peace, I don't think I'd want that sewed on my uniform. I think I'd want to take that off sometimes. Perhaps if I was surrounded and just about to be captured by the general population, I might want to take that one off. And can you imagine? It's on Velcro for a reason. Honest to God, Mark, someone left this patch or forgot this patch on the counter where Debbie works. When she brought it home. On that note, I want to bring something up again that we've been talking about with Haroldry. And I know guys, his skulls are out there and all of that. And that's a motif that's been out for as long as warriors have gone to battle. And the SS tattoo, the Nazi ruins SS tattoo is still frowned upon in the Marines, even if you are a scout sniper. Right, exactly. Oh, you can't do that! Well, the interesting thing though is you've got, you know, like the blue... I was in our company at Lost in Woods with the Blue Devils. Okay, well, that's for the, you know, Blue Devils. Yeah, with pitchforks and all that, dudes. You know, the traditional World War II unit crest and the unit patch were actually quite collectible now. I should have kicked myself. I should have grabbed piles of them. At that point in time, back when I was in service, the unit patches and crest were pennies. It was original World War II stock. They still didn't run out of the stuff they had done in World War II or the middle of Vietnam. The stuff was very high quality. In many cases, like with the World War II, it was gold. If you see gold on a World War II insignia, it ain't brass. It's gold. If it's brass, you'll know it's brass. That's the enlisted insignia. But officers insignia, where it's supposed to be gold, it's gold. That's why you don't have to polish it. You might have to wipe off the mud and the blood and body parts, but you don't have to polish it. Okay? And then just clean the gun about it. So the thing about it is, and I'll give you an example. If you go, what we need is positive and again, high ground imagery. Terrible Swift Sword is the logo for one of the colonial marina units. Terrible Swift Sword. Now when you hear that, you think about, I know the guys that are listening from the south are going, ah, Civil War, man! Oh, Battle Hymn of the Republic! But you see the term Terrible Swift Sword comes from the Bible. It's much older than that conflict. Yeah, and the idea is that it was a sword of vengeance or a sword of justice. And so it is again, when wielded by an avenging angel. Avenge me! Remember Red Dawn? Avenge me! Now my only problem with that is if you had the ability to scream, shout, or do anything, you don't surrender, you keep fighting. Because if you're in that situation, you don't go to the theater, you can see the end result in the next scene when you're standing next to the ditch, away from the theater, from the drive-in movie, remember? that they could get it again to get it again to get it again to get it again to get it all of the issue for the market but not sure that So, the point here is there's some excellent, I mean, especially some of these guys that do graphic artwork and are prisoners. I know a couple of guys, actually more than a couple, they were doing portfolios all the while they were behind the wire. Every, as soon as they finished one they were right into another, but every week they'd have several done. And these guys truly, truly, if they focused on what they were doing and applied it, which I'm sure they did, Guys, they had virtually hundreds of thousands, if not millions of dollars worth of art produced. They took their time and it was 100% focused positive. They would get so much of a portfolio done and they would send it out to their parents. Send it out to the next again, wife, parents, whoever. This work puts some of the stuff there. It's comparable to anything you'll find. For instance, as graphic logos. for movie covers, book covers, or album covers, which is the big thing, which is what it was going to reference. If you go to YouTube and punch in Archangel, two steps from hell, there is an excellent example there of a warrior angel. And it's not even a full body shot or thing like that. It is an upper torso shot with a silhouette. and the straight blade hull brids are left and right and it's done in that blue, in like the blue, hollific, blue base color, blue, gray base color range and I'll tell you what, that image is the kind of thing we need to be thinking about with unit heraldry. Even, in fact, the purpose behind wings weren't, you know, bats out of hell, although you do see that with combat operations, and more and more we've leaned towards the occult side. And it used to be it was tongue in cheek, and that it was like, you know, the Looney Tunes, you know, little red devils or the Pixies or the Gremlins. But that's not what we're doing now. And I would challenge anybody, you know what, in the light of day, terrible swift sword wielded by an avenging angel. Think about all the different things that could be done with that, even in heraldry. Even the symbol itself of the battle sword. It doesn't matter if it's a sword in general. Typically it will be done in herald in a straight, traditional Roman or in the medieval knight motif. It's a straight blade, double edged. It was intentionally designed to duplicate the symbol of the cross. That wasn't an accident that was very much intentional in heraldry that was put there for a reason You see it over and over again the traditional a knight errant and what of course if he was you know Take you would take his sword drop it into the gilbert strike it in the ground before him and He would pray and the cross is what he was bearing at that point See, that kind of symbolism is what we need to be thinking about. It doesn't mean that we can't have other mixed motifs or concepts, but I challenge everybody because there's some really good work that can be done, and there's some really neat stuff that's already been done, and there's no sense in dragging it over and applying it. Look, if you watch the Colonial Marine Militia site, you might notice that the title blocks and everything change, and change probably above every three, four days, every couple of days, or at least every couple of weeks, depending on how busy everybody is. Pay attention, because the unit mottos, what it is is everybody takes turns, it's kind of like a roll of the dice, but unit logos, unit mottos, and other instruments are posted there. That's the way we need to be thinking. There's plenty of broad access and broadsword imagery to pull from the Bible. It's one of the greatest topics ever written, dudes. As far as having everything in it, you'd want a drama and a whole lot more. Let's use it. It's just that simple. Use it. In fact, I'll challenge you if you're one of the best books I have that is it's old now. In fact, now it's like 67 years old, but it's well, 60 years old. I got this back in the early 70s. It's a U.S. Army Herald rebook that was done by the actually it was done by a commission originally was commissioned and it's it's nothing more than a unit by unit history of the development of the army. and first army, second army, third division, second division, third division. Well, even in the divisions, remember most people realize you might, most people realize you have a unit patch. What they don't realize is that you have a unit banner and you also had a unit crest. You've heard me mention that many times. Don't confuse the crest with the unit patch. and each one is a different element of our traditional heraldry. This is where we get back to the whole thing. Let me give you an example. Semper Fi, guys! What's that the motto of? Is that a Marine Corps thing? Why, yes it was. But it was also the Army's motto. The Marines took it! Well, they came out with about the same time, always faithful, was if you go into the 1st Division, 2nd Division and 3rd Division, take a look at their Unit Crest Unit Flags and take a look at their traditional Unit Heraldry. And when you do, you're going to scratch your head because you'll notice that the dates put the original inception of these units parallel with the Marine Corps. So the fight would be, well we got it, you didn't, and of course everybody pumped the Marines up with Semper Fidelis. Oh it was faithful, it's Semper Fi! Or not, it's me if you're in the Marine Corps. Semper Fi is the Marines man, that's the Marines! Yes it is, unless you're in First Division, First Battalion. And it's right there on the crest, Semper Fidelis. It has also the heraldry dates because, remember these units when they first came up? These were the only army units we had. The Continental's weren't the most common guys, but everybody incorporated their, typically back then, incorporated their inception date, their year. Take them pay attention to this. Take a look at this. Do a little history scrounging. You'll find out, wow, that's kind of different from all the garbage they've pumped into us in the past. And by the way, it works both ways. There are mottos that you would relate to the army that in reality were originally Marine Corps. No! That couldn't be... Oh no! Marine Corps that were army... Wait a minute. It went back and forth. In the depths of time, when you start looking at centuries... And by the way, I might remind you that we already went through the bicentennial back in 75, guys. There's a lot of history that people try to avoid if they can or they don't want to because they want you to think about to the end of your nose. Well, if you go through this, then you realize more how more integrated and cooperative, but also how common their ground was originally. Think about that. I mean, because again, they were fighting what some people argued was a losing cause from the first bullet at Lexington. Yeah, okay, whatever, but I'm going to kill a whole lot of them regulars before I go. The Marines at sea did the same thing but remember Marines also operated on the ground in many places and they're not the most notable because as we know the Marines got dropped off in places you never heard of. During the Continental War you got to remember guys we had a big long coastline and the British were constantly probing to try and visit. In many cases and purely because of propaganda who writes the books determines how you're going to direct your eyes. If you go into a lot of the histories of your respective state, if you're on the coast of the United States, if you're even in the Carolina, oh, the Carolinas actually did a better job, they got more notoriety because it overlaps also to their history of the Civil War with Fort Sumter. Hey, it was a coastal battle that started all this. But back in the day, guys, the Marines would be pulled in and the militia, 500,000, 600,000 strong, anywhere from 200 to 300 gun artillery, would be holding off a landing force or at least putting at bay the reconnaissance group and its pickets that were coming out to try and find out if maybe that was a good harbor. Maybe we could take that one. The Marines fought dozens and dozens and dozens and dozens of battles all up and down the coast in conjunction with militia. The Marines typically being the minority, obviously, because they were never in great strength to begin with. The militia, of course, everybody working hand in hand. Think about the little piece you've seen with Remember the old movie with Charlton Heston? This is the one where everybody usually uses for historical reference. Look at the hodgepodge of troops that fought there. What you saw at New Orleans in the Battle of New Orleans is in reality how most of the American war for independence was fought all up and down the east coast. Over and over again. Over and over again. Just think about that. Oh, it's why Washington was always lamenting about why he couldn't get supply or why can't I get more troops. Well, the official army looked so big, but the overall military strength of the colonies, slash the states, eventually, was much greater. It's just they had to take care of their harbors, they had to take care of their shipping, they had to address and have so many men on the ground because of the naval threat. Which was, let's put this in perspective, it's kind of like today where you have air defense because you've got a lot of air to cover. and the threat from the air can be quite decisive if you're, again, or you have to be prepared to hide yourself from it. Either hide from it or fight it. To do that, it takes manpower. If you're worried about clandestine warfare operations, you've got to put more troops on the ground to cover more real estate. And you will never have enough to properly do that, no matter which side you are. So all kinds of fighting and excitement take place because somebody gets bold on both sides. Something to think about there. Anyway, We're looking at some excitement coming up. We need to be better organized. Down your number for night vision before we go any farther, please. Hey, that number is 2317968458. And you have a sad announcement for everybody, too, about the green screen. You'll let everybody know again what transpired there. Yeah, I don't have any first-generation green screen anymore. That's gone. It's sold out. A number of dealers picked up the last little quantity of the gun sights. realizing those are the only ones that they could get in first-gen and anything. So they're gone you guys, I don't have that. That well has dried up, that's another way to put it. You guys got them, hooray for you. Because it's a tactical advantage over white light on your face. You've probably handed that to your buddy and you might have noticed that green light on your face. Think of it if it was white. How much more attention that would grab to the naked eye or to another piece of night vision. So we kind of brought that to a close. That chapter's closed and you guys have got them hooray for you. My entry-level piece in real green screen now is like $980 and that's a viewer and that's a step up you guys but it's second generation. It's a longer life. It's lower light performance and the piece I'm talking about is very consistent in its performance and clarity. My phone number is 231-796-8458. If you're looking for a gun site, I've got a second generation gun site, it's 2POWER. It'll live on top of your AR-10, your M1. Write your mailbox for $1245. My phone number is 231-796-8458. Thank you, Mark. Very good. Again, a reminder, guys, one of the reasons a lot of stuff is getting eaten up and sent overseas, and I believe that even though there's restrictions in this way and that, people are figuring out ways to get around it, or they're buying from any source they can. So, first gen is being pulled for a number of different activities. Protection, operational security, traveling and escape and evasion, slash over DDing and AO here in the US, and direct military application overseas. If you have a first gen and you already picked it up from Don, congratulations. You're a step ahead of everybody else and for the time being there isn't any more available other than what's out there retail. And as that dries up, which I've already seen and I've been watching, I've been careful to watch, as it dries up you're not seeing it replaced with anything. Of course, why did we need to address which one of the next models? I hear the music. We are at the top. Don, you're number for night vision again, please. Hey, that number is 231796. 8458. Goggles are gone. Sights 231796. 8458. Very good. And again, guys, pay attention, Don. If you have questions, talk to Don. God bless the Republic. Just the New World Order. We shall prevail, ladies and gentlemen. The Empire is on the run. But we are on the march, both day and night. Hey you guys goggles are concise my phone number is two three one seven nine six eight four five eight Thank you God bless you God bless America Next thing you know, the facts might tax. It's just the taking all I got. The clock's ticking on me. If you're in the wind, we'd have a portion of tea party.
