Summary
Mark Koernke and caller Mike from Arizona discussed military aircraft operations along the southwestern border, including C-12 surveillance aircraft, Border Patrol operations at Marana Air Park, and intelligence collection capabilities. The conversation shifted to broader critiques of modern vehicle automation and electronic systems, with Mark arguing that human operators are essential for critical decision-making and that over-reliance on wireless technology and Chinese manufacturing creates unacceptable safety risks. The hosts also discussed planned obsolescence in automobiles, the Cash for Clunkers program, and the superiority of mechanical systems over electronic ones for reliability and independence.

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 free and home of the brave. The freedoms we secured for you, we hoped you'd always keep. The tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost, you're no more than a slave. In this, the land of the free, home of the brave. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun. Permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying how the money's spent. Your children must attend a school that doesn't educate. And your Christian values can't be taught. According to the state, you read about the current news in a regulated press and you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS. Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold. You trade your wealth for paper so your life can be controlled. You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame number. You trade it in your name. You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and see farm and keep our country deep and dead. Put men of God in jail. Harash your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. And your daughters visit doctors so their children will be. Your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedoms for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you'll fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear, 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 eat God-given right, and pray to God for freedom, bright as Iowoc he'd vanished in the midst for whence he came. His words were true, not free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now as tyrants trample each god-given right, we only watch and tremble, too afraid to stand and fight. 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, dill the land of the free? Because I had no shoes, and then I met a man. intelligence report. I'm Mark Kurnkey. This is Mike in Arizona. along with Alaska. Good afternoon to our friends in the Aleutians and the Bering Straits. Yes, lots of excitement there. Anyway, it is a beautiful Friday. Mike, what's the day today? And what else is jumping off the wall down there in your neck of the woods, please? I'm pretty sure today is the 17th and the 18th of November 2016. It's a Friday. It is the 18th, as a matter of fact. There we go. And temperatures kind of changed. The night or two ago, or during the day, the clouds came in, blocked out the sun, and then it sunset all the clouds left and were plummeted. Up in the Phoenix area, there were some of the outer lying cities that were just above freezing. I can get out here in the hinterland and work it. The cloud in the sky, the sun warmed up, and then outside just a little while ago, and it must be in the 70s, and it's going to continue to warm up for so it's not 115 120 degrees and barren and dry out here now that because monsoons come in and we've had a tremendous amount of rain since July. A lot of the stock came in the olden days when they would run cattle houses in the arroyo the water would run they're generally drosshes during the build up itself so it's kind of along in the and I'm talking you know these things are some of them the size of an Olympic swim thousands of gallons of water and it was to water the for such a long time. A great big sick raise has grown up around there. Some of them, you know, 20 feet high by the shade. So as the illegals move from the south to the north and hide out in the cover of the trees during the daylight and then they continue there during the daytime. So with the abundance of rain, the drop of the ten us now, I was up in F.W. drive this weekend. And my wife and I had been invited to a wedding, so we had to move on up in the afternoon on Sunday. My wife was out here at our ranch taking care of her. Some of the dogs ran over to the fence and were barking, looking out empty. It's kind of just a free move zone type of a deal. And the dogs were over at the fence barking, and she looks out in the direction of where they were barking. And there was a whole, there are here, they are, and the smugglers moved, the temperatures of US military transport, that's now, that's assigned, do you have a particular post or outpost where they've been operating out of that where they seem to be consistently returning to now or they're still working at two or three different locations? Well, the down at a place called Marana, Pinell County Air Park, we'll say it's just a little bit north on the I-10 corridor. It's on the west side of I-10. It's tucked back in, oh, I don't know, a couple, three miles west of the, there's a big, I don't know, several thousand foot, maybe a seven to ten thousand foot runway. Big enough to bring in C-5s, DC-10s, C-130s, everything that. And then up at the end of it, you have a National Guard aviation unit, the first 285th. And they've gotten some new facilities built there. And the old facilities, a big hanger, control tower, and some barracks and things, those facilities have been turned over. They're flying Blackhawks out of there, but I'm not exactly sure if they're from the C-12. Now, there's a slight differentiation. The military C-12 and the Border Patrol, they call it an MEA, a multi-forceman aircraft. It's a 14P pad with an extended nose, extended wings with wings and it's an extreme thing. You've got two systems operating and they can fly day and night, 5,000 feet off the ground. Pretty sure it has a service ceiling of up into the 30,000 feet. So it's a pressurized cabin. And it's all whitish. Now some of the pictures I've seen in the NBA, it shows a great big blue stripe running up above the the wing, but I haven't seen that. And sometimes when it flies over, during the day after it gets 10 miles or so farther away, it's kind of really hard to direction. Generally, they're flying in the east side of Interstate 8. And this is something I have a track down. But watching them when they come in at night, because they have a real distinct sound. It's not like a single engine Cessna that sounds like a chainsaw fly, and it's kind of that turbo prop kind of a sound that when it goes over, fairly quiet because you really hardly ever hear it until it's directly overhead. And then some of the light flashing patterns, it's a little bit more distinct than some of the other aircrafts. and I followed it at night and then it heads towards the city of Casa Grande and then it winged down to the south and it looks like it loops around where in the junction of where I-10 and I-8 runs and heads back nearly on the east side of Interstate 8 and then it banks around and then it loses altitude and loses altitude behind the bushes and the trees. in the city of Casa Grande, they have a single continuous operation that's called Dome Garden. It's forgiven by the federal government. We have full-time people in the National Guard and the Hemet fuel-vivillion train wouldn't surprise me one bit if they're taking the Hemets from down at Marana and driving those up to C-12. up for the refueling operations up in there. But then again, maybe they're just whipping out the government film I, and they could be just utilizing the fuel there. Certainly, if you have any photographic, after night, to the best of my guess, that that, that fueling and possibly changing crews. Now, where they take them to do maintenance, there's several up in the scene of the sensors for these types of aircraft. So they could be flying up there, Douglas, or so they could be actually running them up in the air. I'll talk about that real quick here for everybody. There are a number of different bases. Originally, the way the bases were distributed was to actually protect the American border to secure the southwestern part of the United States. While some of the facilities are still active, others are not, and it's more been oriented towards either the maintenance and support facility or the graveyard facility up there towards Tucson. Or as you just pointed out, we have a big R&D group there all the way from White Sands over to California. And then from the border, which includes Fort We Gotcha. And Fort We Gotcha is US Army Intelligence Center and Headquarters West. It is the Command and Control Signal Communications Global Planetary Signal Command. If you haven't seen that unit batch, guys, they're floating around here and there. That particular command post has now been well secured and expanded upon both underground and above ground. A lot of their research R&D has done with a combination of aircraft, again the newer transport platforms, along with various intelligence collection aircraft. The Mohawk was stationed down there quite heavily. There have been a number of other naval aircraft that have been pressed into service at different times or Even aircraft pulled from the graveyard that served intelligence collection or are set up so that they can quickly be adapted. The aircraft are not constantly committed to the same equipment. In fact, it's a plug and play Lego plane. Even pressing the cargo aircraft into service, the newer planes have a lot of variable geometry potential. and that they were allowed flexibility with additional wiring harnesses, auxiliary hydraulics, a lot of other fixtures externally that could be attached or detached. The Mohawk aircraft reference can go from countermeasures to just simply passive collection. They don't do any significant changes, guys. They just simply have pylons and they detach one module and they will reattach another fixture, a complete different module, and the onboard avionics are altered accordingly or they're adaptable. In many cases, on the dashboard, in other words, a console, They will have everything sitting there necessary. They can simply select which platform, which system they're going to use for jamming, collection, a combination of the above. It can be any number of different missions. Surveillance, for instance ground surveillance and or thermal surveillance, which typically they have multiple missions simultaneously. It's why they have multiple pylons. With the transport aircraft, it's even more flexible. They have all the pylon capability and stations under the wings, but remember the whole body of the aircraft can be modified. That's one of the other reasons. Or they just open the back door and tow. Remember, you can drag things behind planes. You don't have to have it hooked up to the aircraft. You can wheel it out during flight, let it operate, and then wheel it back in. Very common trick that's been going on for years. We used to do target drones the same way. So there are a number of different techniques just because the aircraft is a particular type like Mike is saying, it can be performing a lot of other missions and unless you have the ability to monitor frequencies, And also observe, based upon, again, what are the patterns for performance when in flight? Certain ways or certain flight configurations with regard to operations in the air can give you an idea about what they may be up to. If they're in orbit, non-standby, if they're lingering in an area, or if they pass through an area but do a pattern, those are some of the other indicators that you're watching for. It was a military operation. Absolutely. I know that the Air Force has been using the C-12 up at Nellis Air Force Base for what is it called, red flag as an AWACS aircraft. So it's got the capability to, you know, in the olden days we had the great big 707 AWACS aircraft, but this day and age that somebody with a lap computing power, that a computer back in the 1950s would have, but it weighed 20. and had to have a lot of air conditioning with it. So nowadays, you don't have to have an aircraft as big as a 707 and a computer as big as a house. You can have it in a very small... As you upgrade or change, you can retire a module and build a whole new one. If you create the ability to engage and disengage with the package itself, then you also need to change maybe the the monitoring technology, but that's not that complicated a process. Aircraft are already modular to begin with. You pull one system out, you upgrade, make the other one smaller, you can add more to the dash and do more work at the same time. And that's one of the reasons they'll use the transport aircraft first, to see what they can come up with or develop, and then compress the package down from its research package to a tighter performance package. There's a lot of unique stuff hanging out there and a lot of things that are added into conventional combat aircraft for any number of purposes. Remember, you had the wild weasels during Vietnam. They had a very specific mission separate from everybody else, keeping the bad guys busy. And countermeasures was their mission. They were monitoring a lot of other technology, though, in the process. And a lot of it, they didn't really want anybody to know completely about until Well, even then, after the war, a lot of it has been kept quiet because it's not all been retired. The only thing that's happened, like you said, it's gotten smaller and easier to manage. It's still out there. It's just now, it's even easier than before to be able to deploy. So although it's susceptible, if it's microcircuitry, to more EMP issues and things like that. But that's, say, that's considered acceptable in light of what they get in the way of benefit. Now, Mark. Go ahead. I wouldn't be surprised if they start using drones for that stuff. They already have. The problem with drones is sensitivity and monitoring and time on target. Remember that typically intelligence aircraft, although they certainly are linked to the ground, that's why the command and control and signal communications people do what they do. The problem is, if while you're in the process of deploying something for either countermeasures or let's say you're collecting and monitoring, an operator right there on time that's a human can make specific, very quick decisions and shorten the time and performance, the time on target, time in sight. Remember that the problem with being a radar operator or being a surveillance aircraft or whatever, is you're actually a very high, juicy, priority target for shoot their ass. And everybody forgets that. It's like, well, since we know what you can do, the first time I see this frequency, there's a basic rule, SOP, fire, no matter what. Everybody, fire on this. It's like we've said, if you see it, hit it. And so there are advantages to using the drones, because you don't necessarily lose a skilled labor. But the disadvantages with drones, if you become fully committed to them, is the delay in operations and mistakes that can be made because you don't have a pilot and an operator there to adjust or compensate accordingly. The advantage, you're not risking them. The disadvantage in situations where you need the human element close, you have that delay and that can cost time, which can cost lives by itself. So that's why there's always that human element, or they try to incorporate the human element especially when it comes to interpretation. The computer, the artificial intelligence can't do that. And remember it can be that one little tweak, that one little tip, that one little, it's also the nuances that the human mind registers that artificial intelligence can try to but typically doesn't do that well at. And that's why the manpower in certain tasks like this is a preferred. Now, it's also cheaper. Remember, the more remote technology and the more robotic technology you apply, the more you start ringing up the price tag. And people are typically cheaper, and our organic brains do pretty much everything that's necessary to get the job done. Yeah, 17 kilo radar operators said about 11 minute life expectancy on the battlefield. Anybody lighting up any technology years ago when we had IR, if you had to illuminate the area, you preferred not to be near what you were using to illuminate the battlefield with if it was an IR power source, narrow light source, forgive me, that's changed with starlight, but there's still illumination technology in play that, again, there are tricks of the trade that you use so that you're not on target because as soon as somebody sees something or they register something electronically, Remember, you are a priority for destruction. That's the way everybody's taught. You know, fire on target. Put bullets on target. Fire that up. Find out what it is. Or if we already know what it is, let's see if we can knock it out or at least keep it busy so it's not doing its job. Typically the priority is kill. Go ahead, go ahead, Jeff, over there. No, I was just going to say, speaking of drones, as far as I know, they've been operating a couple out. It's the Israeli. Know that at least one of them is crash. And we're not buying them, we're renting them. and for the price that caused cheaper to go buy these other aircraft. The Border Patrol over the years has been trying to use a number of different aircrafts, turning into real types of aircraft. They decided to stick hand in all the other options to buy a total much more of a target lot. Maybe you'll have to pay somebody wages and somebody retirement and stuff, but as my dad told me many, many years ago when talking about satellites and space lab and all those things, He said, son, you'll never replace a human up there. Exactly. One of the other things, one of the most important things is again, it's the time between reception and interpretation. Remember that even when you have robotics and or other technologies, it still comes down to have to have a human brain. It has to have value to humanity, so to speak. Think of it that way. You have to have a human mind that can look at it, take and, you know, discern specific nuances and that's a combination of training and experience. training to understand how the equipment works, experiencing being able to look at the register, whatever it is, it can be electronic signals, it can be actual visual observation, example, satellite mid-altitude or high altitude aircraft, low altitude aircraft too. And remember, it's the human element. You've got that intuition thing going. In reality, although they call it intuition, my argument has always been it's the subconscious mind. It's usually two steps ahead of the conscious brain. It's not distracted by as much. And so what happens is you've registered it. You understand. You know what's going on. And what happens is your conscious mind It has to catch up with what's happening in the subconscious realm. Both of them have the same database. Both of them know what's going on. One is a little faster than the other. But what happens, you realize, hey, there's something that doesn't look quite right. It's that color blip. It's that little edge of something. It's that triangle or that rectangle or that angle that's very sharp that isn't supposed to be in a, should be in a, shall we say, rounded environment. There are all kinds of things that we register subconsciously that are so critical, especially when it comes to a process of life and death decisions, both short-term and long-term. That's what I keep trying to tell everybody about trucking. There's no way in God's green earth you're going to ever be able to have a completely autonomous truck. Just for the reasons you just mentioned, Mark. Too many other things, too. Well, again, an accident still happened. Nancy just had this happen in front of her. It's kind of interesting. Well, it's not good. We've had some weird accidents around us. Fortunately, we don't have anything bad. She was watching a car in front of her. started to veer off into the middle lane. School had just got out, all the buses were just loaded up, the bus was coming down the road towards her. And everybody's thinking, well, the person must be turning off into the church. Nope, he was just whatever, passed out, knocked out, not paying attention. Car problem smacks a square out into the bus. Yeah, I mean, how many times have you looked out of the corner of your eye on the interstate and seen I've seen some clown do something stupid. I understand the concept, the idea, the argument is sound, you need a man there, a person there, but I would also go to the next step, you can't really let the machine run because the human gets lazy. Unless that person is given some motivation, they have a tendency to get into a comfort mode. I mean, we have music on board. Look what cell phones are doing already. I mean, for all the discussion about safety, what have, and you've all watched this, I've watched this every time we've traveled, it's like, why is this person doing 35 and a 65? Oh, look, their hand is up next to their head, and then they keep looking at the screen, and the other hand is tied up trying to text, and take your pick, or type whatever, you know, punch, whatever, who knows. The problem is that that's happening with vehicles and it's happening with everything right now. But once you have a situation where the machine is running the system and the argument is that the human being will just instantly grab and take over, it sounds good, but it usually doesn't work that way. It happens on the space station. They get bored up there. Well, they have a mistake. It's the end of the world as we know it for them anyway. I'll tell you one thing and I'll get off. Money, Mark. Money is the motive issue. You pay me. I'll keep my damn hands on my lap. I won't put a phone to my ear. You show me the green and I'll do the job correctly. Well it's still, yeah but even if you're doing, see that's the thing, the problem is time and delay because of comfort. Despite what we think, if you have to actually interact, if you mechanically have to interact and you have to maintain control, your attention span is much higher, well it's longer and it's deeper, okay it's just that simple. You're interacting and you're already in alpha mode. But if you go to Bravo, on standby, Beta mode, what happens is it's the time to delay, it's the time and turnaround to reinstituting an active control of a system where before it was being automatically run or mechanically run by something else. That delay is where you're going to lose. I've watched this with machinery for years. People argue about the idea of robotics. It's not that they're really getting rid of the people, but the robots are going to be doing it and then you're standing there watching. Well, if you were operating it and you have the interactive process, you have to go step A, step B, step C, step D. Because of that, you're in a mental connection with what you're doing. But if you're just monitoring it, and the machine has to worry about all the detail or the minuta, what happens is you get into a very different monitoring mode. And you'll watch the crash and the disaster, so to speak, with your machine. I mean, I'm talking about a car. I'm talking about with production. Where the machine's doing it, the machine's doing it to me. She goes, oh god, oh, I got 567 bad. Oh, and it busted the tooling. Oh, well, I got to stop it. Hit the slaps, hit the paddles. That's how it works in real production right now. If you're lucky, the person is still somewhat attentive, but there's a problem with, kachunka-chunka-chunka-chunka-chunka, it's rather hypnotic. And when you're not really participating in it, although certainly you'll get motivated depending upon what kind of threats they can offer about taking your job, that's the most important thing is the threat that you might lose the job that'll make you stay attentive, but still a combination of fatigue, could be illness, whatever, If you're interactive, there's a different mental process going on. If you're monitoring, it is a retarded process. And with production you have to constantly interact and if you don't, you're going to have a mistake that's made. Your materials, whatever it is you're handling is where you're going to have problems. In the driving sense, the idea is it's very comfortable, it's very comfortable. Look, there's a semi right in your lane. The vehicle may adjust to a degree, but if it's something where again, Well, we've already seen this. Remember, the one accident where the vehicle was run over is because all the sensors were messed up because of reflection. Well, why does that surprise me? Okay, it doesn't. It's what we talked about before. There are so many interactive components. The machine registers within whatever its degree, but our intuitive second brain, that subconscious component, is constantly rising to the surface into something that the machines, though they've tried to mimic it, don't do a very good job of adapting. That intuitive process. That particular incident you're talking about, the idiot that was in the vehicle, had his hands in his lap and he was, he saw the truck, he wasn't even looking, you know, he thought that the vehicle was going to completely dodge that truck. I mean, the idiot didn't even lift his hands up to his steering wheel. He just... Right, because he's, but yeah, but it's propaganda. It's what you think about it. It would get worse as people become more complacent. Complacent. Then you're just going to drive the plane to the crash site. You know what I mean? That's what's going to happen. But the technology is so flawless until the mistake takes place. The protest was peaceful until gunfire rang. Well, and again, we can argue back and forth. Bottom line is I'd rather have people under control, controlling the technology, forced to pay attention and to interact. to robotic or synthetic technology running the operation. By the way, I would point something out. The one factor that's missing and is not acceptable is that originally when this was all proposed, the idea was not to count on wireless. Wireless is guaranteed to have malfunctions because it is radio. You can call it whatever you want, ultra high, it's radio. Signals can be interrupted by so much. Sensor technology, which is radar, is another radio. When it is pinging or observing or when it's sending a pulse out and getting a pulse back, there are so many variables in the environment that can distract or disrupt that you cannot have full confidence nor should you have full confidence in it. See, that's the part that gets me. Back in 1964, I can remember this language yesterday, yes, they were talking about auto drive vehicles, but what were they proposing? Well, you'd have that other lane, and if you were headed for Bratislava, Illinois, and you were in Schmitzburg, New York, the Interstate Defense Highway Network, there would be that outer express section, which really could be built easily today, and you would latch onto that. And for all of that cruising distance, as far as you wanted to go, unless you wanted to get off for some other purpose, you'd lock onto that and it would mechanically keep you on track. It was mechanically connected. Not just electronically, you know, you monitored everything, you set the, you had cruise control, and it would also inter-cooperate and monitor the other vehicles that you were working with. Of course, there were a couple different ideas. One was the train concept where, well, if you're all going to Bratislava and you've already programmed in that you're going to go to Bratislava, progressively vehicles would line up that were headed for the same destination and they would work together. They would actually be kept in service together. But they would be mechanically guided, not electronically guided. And that's the biggest problem as far as I'm concerned. That's why I don't trust this garbage at all. First of all, if it was based upon, and this is one of the big problems, on the one hand, the reason we can do this, it's like military equipment, is because we cranked more out. Well, when we crank more out, and we can make it cheaper now because we found slave labor in China, which is not as cheap as it used to be, and eventually we'll be doing more Indonesian slave labor again, and now we've got South Vietnamese slave labor, but that won't last. But right now, we can find enough slaves that will do it cheap that we can crank it out for a pretty reasonable price. However, the problem with it is those slave labor people that we have, even when they're running robotics, do not necessarily have the wherewithal to necessarily work at the same level of proficiency that we do, for whatever reason, because of lack of breaks, running too many hours, penny pinching, starvation. Take your pick. But because of this, the failure rate is higher. So the problem is, do you want to take that 10% China Sport failure rate and apply that to something that your life is going to depend on, literally moment by moment? I don't want that. Look at all the crap they've produced. Look at what just happened. OK, think about this. Well, Mark, they'll perfect it. Don't we have a whole series of computer phones right now that were, no, they charge them up and they burn a house down. Charge them up, they'll burn your car down. But shouldn't they have figured that all out, what was going to happen with that before it got into the field? You would think that with R&D they would do that. Think so. You would think so. You assumed so, but it didn't happen so, did it? No. What was that they had to pull that? Wasn't that like the Galaxy 7 just recently that no one, everybody, to send them back? Please send them back before you have any more lawsuits. Oh, you're going to plug yours in and have a lawsuit, which is what some people I'm sure did. Oh, really? get a fireproof bag that you have to mail it back in to. But the problem is that's just something like a phone. Just imagine where every system gets more complicated like that. Like Scotty said, the more complicated the plumbing, the easier it is to stop up the drain. And that's what you're looking at with the technology here. To me, it's like, no, there's a good blend with human, mechanical, and electronic. Now, right now we've got overboard with the electronic purely for the sake of doing it so that by cranking out more they can buy more and by buying more they can do more and then they can fiddle with more toys. But 90% of what we have electronic is purely for the police state. It has nothing to do with nor does it benefit us. Electronic locks on the cars, which fail whenever you have a car accident. Everybody does understand that, right? Every time you have a car accident, all of these inter-electric controlled systems fail in the negative. Always. That's been a problem for years. Here's something that really gets me, and I haven't even done any research on it. Have you seen the latest cars? Mike, you might have. Mark, you might have too. Where the woman reaches down and she hits a push button for the transmission to shift. to put it in drive, it's a guarantee electronic or hydro-electronic. Oh my God, what the worst combination of everything you could put together. But on the other hand, if you want a nice police state vehicle that could shut down, lock you in, lock up the trams on orders from somewhere else, it's a wonderful thing for a police state mindset population, well, I should say government. But it is not beneficial to us. It's like OnStar. Remember they said, oh, I'm locked outside my car. Oh, no, no problem, ma'am. Well, I need to find my car. Remember that one? Beep, beep. And they beeped the horn. Well, where was the person beeping the horn? Over here in Dearborn, Michigan. Where were you? Oh, you were in South Dakota. They locked your car doors. Oh, no, they unlocked your car doors. On the other hand, beep, beep. They can lock them just as quick and what else can they do? Well, as we found out and as people are still finding out, your car could be shut down anywhere they want to. Now, does that really benefit us? No, but it benefits a police state. Benefits a control freak state, which is what it's all about. I'm going to get out of Michigan or I'm going to get away from Detroit because the new core is starting and my car won't start. They don't want me to really leave the area and I'm not going to get near a bomb shelter because I can't even get out of the driveway. Oh wow. Would you like another cup of tea dear? Oh no no no. I had too many already and I don't want to pee myself before the bomb drops. I say. So like inside a Lobio with the Memphis Blues again. Yeah. Well you know, as far as getting out it's not a problem. By the way, something that somebody brought up here today would you need to remind everybody. So you don't have a knife in the car to smash the window with. You know, you got those little skull crusher pins on the bottom of those little pocket knives. I got them all over the place. I've had them for years, actually. Well, guys, just as a reminder, you know that neck backrest you've got in your car? Ever tried to work that and pull it right out of the seat? You ever notice how it does that? That's so that you can break your windows in your car to get out. You do know that, right? It's a safety feature that was built into all the car companies when they agreed to do the safety glass. That's why the headrests pull completely in those nice sharp fill, those nice pointy pieces of steel on the end, all those bars. Smack the window with that and see what happens. So there is a way out. Now of course the problem is this, I mentioned before, all this stinking safety equipment fails in the negative. First you've got to get out of your safety belt. And anybody who knows anything about car accidents, what happens with the safety lock on that safety belt? It's tight. Look, I smell gasoline. Oh, and the steering wheel came back and crushed me right into the seat because I couldn't move left or right because the safety belt kept me right on target. Boy, I feel great about all that safety gear. And don't forget the airbag kept you tight there too. And then the gasoline sprayed, and then there was that little electrical arc from the other 15 million electronic things you didn't need in the car. Boom. If I just had manual roll-up windows, I wouldn't have had to worry about that door arcing on the side of that crush. I had this happen, something similar. If I weren't standing right there with one of the trucks we have, the ferros seat control, the electronic control. And it did not activate a single fuse. It didn't blow a single part of the circuit. It didn't knock anything out. It just kept working like a toaster. China sports are us. Now if I'm standing right there and it's still burned, okay, but I got it out. I walked away, wouldn't have thought twice about it, and then hey, there's fire trucks out front. I wonder, oh look, there's a fire in the yard. Oh, look at that. Ain't that amazing? So just little heads up, all that electronics, first of all, is not a plus. What's amazing, just go get a Pinto. Here's what's really sad. Just go get a Pinto and look at it. So crude and simple, it's ridiculous. And they used to lament about that. But you know that pinto's also about 800 pounds heavier than most of what you're driving on the road. I could plow through you with a pinto now, on top of everything else. And that was supposed to be the explode-o-matic, remember? Don't touch it. You know, the fuel tank explodes. It really wasn't that bad. I've flown the same pinto that you've been told will burst into flames. And the tank was full, which maybe is why we weren't toasted, but who knows? Anyway, the, yeah. Remember that scene from Hoth from Star Wars, the second movie? Remember when Luke is piloting that skimmer and it goes up and it goes down? Well, that's what the flight of the pendant was like. But still, you look under the hood, it's like, wow, there's hardly anything. Now, here's the thing. Go find a Model T and then look at it and take a look at what it did without electronics. And consider that the ones you'll walk up and look at still run. with no electronics on board guys. Hey, we can't live without electronics, Mike, we have to have electronics on everything. Yeah, my wife's mother and father have a Model T that was perked in in the fan. There goes a Model T. We can't walk through the area here, exactly. Every once in a while we run into another one. We run into an up road, don't hit it. Here's what gets me is everybody goes, well we would just be How could we work without the electronics quite nicely? It's only in the last 20, 30 years that we've really been hammered with that BS. And it's purely for the purpose we're talking about so that you all think that you can't live without it and it disables everything. Consider that it negates the need of other math that you all tied into this and also social engineering and social structure. Here's one for you all to think about. Your BMW is wrong. Guaranteed that once they get old enough, you'll never fix them or you can't get them. There are several cars, a friend of mine, he almost flew his truck off the Mackinac Bridge, high winds during the winter. But the truck, somebody else hit him. The truck was only six, almost seven years old, could not get any parts for it. Ford truck. Now the good thing is he got a bigger truck out of the deal. All of the parts that were critical were no longer available in the inventory. And what's fascinating about that is, and of course he worked for the auto companies, but what's fascinating is that it was easier for them just to total a vehicle and give him money and go buy a new truck, buy another replacement, but don't fix the one that was in the past. You and I, guys, we'd have changed a few body parts, we'd have pulled the engine, put another engine in that the truck physically was, you know, three quarters of it was in good shape and the parts that were damaged could be repaired, except... Well, only if you have parts, and especially in the electronic category, that's what killed the truck economically. That's what killed the truck so that they felt that it was better just to total it. Part of the sparks. Yeah, that beamer, the more electronic junk, what will happen is that first you'll cannibalize what few wrecks you have. Remember they did this cash for clunkers BS to kill the parts inventory. That's what they were doing, getting all the older vehicles off the road. and they were told to destroy them. There was a car dealership just down the road here, half a county away, and he's got several of the squash cars from that Cash for Clunkers thing because they had to smack holes in the engines and they went one step farther and brought a little car crusher and it flattens them sideways. And they had them stacked like poker chips sideways, angled sideways like old cards laying out at plywoods and laying up against a wall. And guess what? They still haven't got the money for those. parts didn't come off and go on another vehicle to run that vehicle for any period of time. They didn't even leave the country. And normally that's what does happen. There's purchasing agents. There's companies. They're on the coast. You'll see them all the time. If you go down to the coast, like Gulfport, if you go down to Texas, or you go to the East Coast, and they'll pile these cars up, and they load them up, and they take them to a foreign country and market them out there. Our car inventory, that's why a lot of these cars just seem to have disappeared. They did. They left the country, guys. They did disappear. They weren't destroyed. They just went to the next market. 56 DeSoto and Cuba. Yeah, well that's classic. They already turned into a flotilla, you know, a paddle police. If it moved through Texas, the Port of Galveston is probably going to Africa. That's where a lot of the stuff that was Shelly's job when she worked at the Port of Galveston was shipping cars and other equipment like that overseas to Africa. Yeah, they go to the next market. In fact, there's a whole formula for this, which is why they're told to get certain vehicles, because each of the respective markets still produces the older formulas of fuel, the oil companies. accommodate the fuel combinations necessary for that fleet of cars, that fleet of vehicles for that period of time. Which is something that I learned years ago because looking at, remember we were watching what was going on where they were shutting down the refineries. And if you pay attention, there's a whole scheduling system for North America, South America, Africa, Asia, and it's generational. We are at the top of the goof-lino list. We pay the most. And we pay for whatever the goofy latest idea is. Then it slides south to South America, and then Africa is number three in line. And the very same thing is, we got rid of the pop tabs on the top of soda cans and everything. Back when was that? In the 70s, because supposedly the birds were seeing the reflection on the beach and eating it. So over here in the early 90s, we're in Saudi Arabia. And they're just trying to watch kind of cans they had over there. But of course, 20 years later, of course, they just packed up that bottling plant and just shipped it to another country and just let them in. And just kept cranking them out. There we go. That's the same thing that happened, just as another example. Remember Taurus? Taurus of Brazil, when it first opened up, that was a Smith and Wesson, it was the original tooling in the Smith and Wesson plant. When they upgraded, they shipped everything south, went over to all the new technology. and Taurus was created. That's why we call it Smith and Wesson of South America. And Rock Island out in the Philippines made... Well the interesting thing is... Oh hell, we're at the top already. Well don't worry guys, we can keep right on going. But meanwhile again, pay attention. Simpler is better. Remember that we invented both black powder and smokeless gunpowder before the electronic age. Most everything that we do right now can be done with virtually zero electronic technology as needed. Purely a matter of thinking outside the bowl, that's right, the circuit board and the box they've tried to put us into. And that's a matter of creativity in our part to get back to where we belong when the time comes. Kiss, keep it simple, stupid. God bless the Republic. Yes, to the New World Order. We shall prevail, ladies and gentlemen. The Empire is on the run. And we are on the march both day and night very good. Thank you Mike.

We're gonna be back at 8 o'clock with BK and myself But meanwhile, Ed's taking over you guys could all stick around. We're a most shit town hall meeting coming up. Bye. Bye.
