He took off his three cornered hat, speaking low to me, and 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 length of grave. The freedoms we secured for you, we hoped you'd always keep. The tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost, you're no more than a slave. In this, the land of the free. and home of the brave. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun. Permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying how the money is spent. Your children must attend a school that doesn't educate. And your Christian values can't be taught according to the state. You read about the current news in a regulated press. and you pay attacks 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 trade it in your name. You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seize family farms. 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 won't 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 will fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear and be a slave? O sons of the Republic, arise, take a stand, defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the land, preserve our great Republic and eat God given right, and pray to God, keep the torture freedom burning bright. Good. Afternoon ladies and gentlemen, this is the first hour of the intelligence report. I'm Mark Cornky, one day closer to victory. Oops, wait a minute. I'm Mark Cornky. Let's make sure nobody else is there. Okay. One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters. Both on and behind the lines in occupied territories. Yeast. Northeast and Southwest. Ladies and gentlemen, you're listening to us on www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com. LibertyTreeRadio.org. And we're on satellite. We'll say hi to all our merchant raid operators out there. No matter what body of water you're sitting on right now, wherever you are on the planet, we appreciate the fact that you either rebroadcasting, and listening, and probably doing both, on analog and digital. We're on a myriad of other communications technologies, both inside and outside these United States. It is Weapons Wednesday. It is the 21st of February. It is the 16th year of open, obvious, and in-your-face, Fabian socialist and Soviet socialist occupation. America with a K, that's the old America with a K series, remember? Yeah, old, only shown once. They didn't want you to see any of what they were talking about ever again. What does that tell you? It is 2024, old Earth calendar, which is gut captain. And 2024, battle for the Republic, the Winter War. And Still, well, we got some winter. It's not done yet. Not by any stretch of the imagination. Don't you make that mistake. You will end up getting hurt, especially in the cold, wet cycle that's going to be coming up. We've had a certain amount of cold dry, although certainly it has been damp and drippy and melty in the bottom of the state here. But it's going to get worse because we've got these spring rains coming and they can kill you just as quick as any snowfield ever will. Don't forget that. Chill you to the bone, take you into the basement with your temperature and hypothermia will finish you off. So we don't want that to happen. Prior proper planning prevents piss poor performance. Let's see, do we have Dave with us here right now? I just want to check. Okay, very good. Before we go any farther, let's do this. Edward, right off the top, there is, actually there's been several guns and gadgets we have not played on the air. But let's take the latest guns and gadgets if we could, Edward, and bring it up. And for everybody out there, Guns and Gadgets is over on YouTube. They, of course, have been there. He's been there. Jared's been there for quite a while. And again, I would remind you to take the time, go over, subscribe for the sake of supporting the channel. Doesn't cost you anything. And give a thumbs up to all the videos. Doesn't cost you anything. A few minutes worth of your time. And go back through the archives and give more of them a thumbs up. Guys, everybody can pitch in to do this. Many hands make for light work. That's one of the strengths we have. We have numbers. Here we go. Before them, open their take up. An issue, a certiorari. And that is the Gun Owners of America's case in New York versus the Concealed Carry Improvement Act. That's the Anton Yock case. And today they filed a writ of certiorari to say, hey listen Supreme Court, you guys and gals said that the Bruin decision was the law of the land when it comes to putting in check government agencies, government law. trying to delete the Second Amendment. And of course we know that Kathy Hochul immediately following the Berlin decision, got on camera, despising the decision, and then immediately went to work in trying to make the entire state, the entire city of New York a sensitive place, right? Thus, people couldn't carry their firearms there. Gun owners of America sued and Judge Sotheby, I always say his name wrong, I hope it's Sutterby, because I think I usually say Sudaby, and I know that GOA attorneys have told me it the right way. I hope it's Judge Sutterby, who is a pro-two-way person, and if, sir, if you're watching this, I hope I have your name right. But Judge Sutterby said that it was unconstitutional, the CCIA, the Concealed Carry Improvement Act. But then I went to the Second Circuit, U.S. Court of Appeals, and they did what they do. They intervened and put most, a great portion of that law back into effect. What is still in effect and what is GOA looking to have the Supreme Court get after? That's the good moral character clause. You don't need to be a good moral character to have any other right in the Bill of Rights, any other right as an American citizen. uh... in fact uh... there's no restrictions on basically any other right there is a couple small ones but nothing quite like uh... gun ownership of the second one was uh... having in-person interviews with law enforcement before you could get your permits uh... the uh... It's four character references as well as the training requirement. It went from four hours of training required in order to get your permit to 18 hours of training to get your paperwork approved for your permit. the horror stories you hear throughout New York about getting your permit. That's all still a thing too. And here's the question presented for review. It says, Rather than following this court's decision, New York sought to nullify it through a concealed carry improvement act that makes it more difficult to exercise the right to bear arms in public than before Bruin was decided. Relying almost entirely on a few outlier laws from the late 19th century, rather than common practice at the time the Second Amendment was ratified, the Second Circuit affirmed most of New York's Bruin response bill sanctioning the requirement that carry license applicants demonstrate their good moral character to licensing officials, despite Bruin's rejection of discretionary suitability determinations. The Second Circuit also endorsed New York's firearm bans in all manner of non-sensitive public places, Rendering carry licenses almost no value. The questions presented are, one, whether the proper historical time period for ascertaining the Second Amendment's original meaning is 1791, rather than 1868, and two, whether the people must convince government officials of their good moral character before exercising their Second Amendment right to bear arms in public. Obviously, solid questions that we know the answer to. Now, let's look at the actual request that they're giving the court. The Second Amendment's plain text presumptively guarantees a right to bear arms in public for self-defense. That came from the Bruin decision. But just days after this statement was made, New York defiantly enacted its Bruin Response Bill purporting to comport with this court's decision, but instead seeking to nullify it. Intent on maintaining its de facto prohibition on public carry, New York decided that if it must issue licenses to ordinary citizens after brewing, it first would do whatever it could to discourage applicants by imposing novel and honorous licensing requirements, and then render any remaining licenses a practical nullity, by prohibiting Kerry virtually everywhere in the state by declaring a multitude of brand new sensitive locations. Although the District Court issued a thorough that carefully applied the framework established in Bruin, found petitioners likely to succeed on a number of their claims and enjoying large portions of the New York law, the Second Circuit panel quickly stayed that order without providing any explanation for its ruling. The Second Circuit has now issued an opinion largely vacating the district court's injunction affirming only as to two of the least defensible provisions of the New York law. To justify New York's widespread carry ban across much of the state, the panel below concocted a historical tradition composed almost entirely, and at times exclusively, of mid- to late 19th century statutes that revealed nothing about what the Second Amendment meant to those who ratified it. and to justify New York's requirement that a person prove so-called good moral character to licensing officials before being entrusted to exercise an enumerated right, the panel sanctioned the very sort of open-ended discretion to determine suitability that Bruin explicitly prohibited. If New York's challenge law was its Bruin Response Bill, then the panel's decision represents the Second Circuit's Bruin Response Opinion. Raisingly, the panel repeatedly justified wholesale rejection of Bruin's methodology claiming that Bruin was an exceptional case and that in less exceptional cases like this one, apparently, courts are free to contrive their own approach. Audaciously, the panel repeatedly chastised the district court for having hewed too closely to Bruin. And in one instance, the panel faulted the district court for having failed to properly appreciate a historical analog that appears never to have existed. The panel's repudiation of Bruin was no accident. In support of its rejection of this court's holdings, the panel referenced a law review article written as a playbook for lower courts to mitigate Bruin by engaging in the time-honored practice of narrowing Supreme Court precedent from below. This court's intervention is necessary for several reasons. First, to correct the panel's flagrant methodological errors which conflict with this court's precedents. Second, to repudiate the panel's unabashed refusal to abide by the Bruin framework. And third, to provide lower courts that actually desire to follow this court's directive with critical guidance on how to analyze Second Amendment cases. The lower courts need a definite pronouncement that the proper time period for ascertaining the scope of the Second Amendment is at the founding, not the last two decades of the 19th century, as the panel apparently believed. In this case would allow this court the opportunity to clarify that government may not selectively disarm law-abiding members of the public whenever licensing officials feel they are of poor character. potentially dangerous or otherwise unworthy of enjoying the natural right to self-defense with which they were endowed by their creator. These necessary course corrections not only would rectify the errors in the panel's decision, but also would provide critical guidance to the lower courts who are struggling with and split on the questions presented here. So this would go a long way to just like, jacking up those couple states that are refusing to follow the Constitution. And We're closer to 1776 than we've ever been since 1776. Solidarity, guys and gals. Look to your left, look to your right, look to the folks behind you in front of you. Those are the people who will stand the line with you. Those are the people who will keep you safe. Those are the people who will keep this country safe when it comes down to it. So, thank you all.

That's right for everybody out there Darn you got something for us jump in there, please No, actually I'm pinched for time here. I gotta make dinner and we got head. We got a head out Okay, very good For everybody out there yesterday, we were talking about a number of different subjects. We were discussing night vision. We have been for a couple of days, which when we get on something, usually we follow up and then we also add to and add to and add to. What I have in my hands are prototypes from prototypes from several years ago, actually. Goggles, sun, wind and dust. One pair with lenses for laser and ballistic protection. Now, I know where these came from. I know exactly who my source was because I spent a lot of time with this gentleman. And back in the 90s and into the aughts, again, a wide amount of equipment that was an XM variant, experimental model variant. And these are in the standard US military green goggle box. Of course, it has all the warnings don't scratch, don't just wipe, use goggle cleaners, etc. for the lenses. This has one each night and one each day lenses for operation, but they are both laser protection goggles, or protection lenses. Now, these should cover, by what I originally researched on this years ago, three different laser frequencies for the most common lasers used in service for targeting, range finding, and as a weapons system support operation of one type or another. These three frequencies were common for both sides, not just for what might be the foreign threat, but also American equipment on the ground, which the soldiers as likely as not to accidentally or intentionally run into. Oops. Remember, all weapons systems and electricity is the same way, and lasers are the same way. They know no friends. They have no allies. There is no such thing as friendly fire. All fires are unfriendly, period. It is not friendly anything. So you have to constantly be thinking all directions with regard to defense. to pay attention to your environment. Know where you're putting bullets down range, know where your allies are and where your support weapon systems are, and make sure you don't line yourself up accidentally with them because in some cases they can only manage so much. The reason I brought this up again is because there are still a number of companies who have on the shelf these goggles. They look like the standard Cold War, the post Cold War black, in fact they had these in the Desert Dust Part 1 and even in Desert Dust Part 2. These are the black rubber frame, standard size goggles, they've been around now for since what, 1958? Before that, they had the gray bodies, which hold back to World War II. In the 50s, there's a couple of variations, several actually. And if you're a collector, you know pretty much all of them. Well, there's some that are very, very unique. In this case, these are brand new, unissued. I just pulled these out of one of my deployment bags, because all of them that I have are with bags ready packed to go. And they're not attached to the helmet, they're attached to the combat kit because they're a unique specialized item. When the time comes, they would be out as needed as the best defense. Now again, yesterday, remember Tex-Mex was talking about, there's a couple of guys out there came back from Yuck Rain, places you don't wanna go because you just knew they were gonna hockey puck the situation up, and they did. Not the troops. It's just the kosher management, the Jewish mafia trying to get as many Christians on both sides killed as possible, a coordinating effort between the Israelis and the Israelis that took over the Ukraine in conjunction with the kosher international congress. Okay? So in a battlefield situation, something that was mentioned is that, well, you're taking your chances and there's no protection. Well, there actually is But we don't know how much of it got out there to the troops. Okay, however However, there's always a however, right? Let me point something out now. I am gonna remind you something else in a minute, but this is off-the-shelf technology this was This particular set I got in 1994 In California, when I was at one of the conventions where I was speaking, and the gentleman that I was in regular contact provided me with a lot of special tech that he was acquiring from the, you know, donut of destruction auctions on the west coast where a lot more of this stuff bleeds out or used to bleed out. And at the time, I think he got about 106 or 119 of these. He put them out for sale before he did. He said, hey, Mark, what could I found? So I grabbed those, I grabbed three, I bought three. And the rest he sold out in about 40 minutes, where he put them out on the table to sell. And the first people that grabbed them were a bunch of the individuals who had just come off service and said, I didn't even know that they were gonna let these go. So they didn't take long to disappear. He had another wave of a couple hundred and then there were a few other hiccups and then hadn't seen anymore. Now they're still out there and about because there's other people that got these and some people look at the box. Some people even if they're surplus people don't always read everything they've got. I've gotten another pair of these. from another person who is selling dust goggles. I assume because it's a green box, I don't think he really looked that close because it says goggles, sun, wind, and dust, one pair with lenses for laser and ballistic protection. Wait a minute. So anyway, I got another pair for, oh, $3. They cost a lot more than $3. But, if anybody knows what they are. But again, when I ordered it, I turned around and went right back to the source. Guess what? Somebody else had read the box, whoever got it next, and they cleaned out the 300 or 400 that the guy had. Boom. All at once. He was happy. He sold them for a lot more than he got them for, I'm sure. Now, here's the thing. This is a military- How much ballistic protection? How much ballistic protection? Well, these are comparable to... The gargoyle glass, in fact I think we'll reverse that. Gargoyle glasses, sunglasses, remember those? Everybody saw them. You've all seen gargoyles. Where did you see them? Phase plasma, right through 40 watt range, Luzzi, 9 meter meter, carbines. But yeah, when they did Terminator, the big glasses at the time were gargoyles. And if you watch the original Terminator, that's what he's wearing is a pair of gargoyles, okay? But they do offer, they're Lexan, I'm pretty sure they're a Lexan or a Lexanite polymer. And they're the same stuff that the ballistic bank glass is made of, there's not as thick. So how much protection, small fragmentation. The advertisement they used to use was shooting a BB gun at the lenses and they don't break. So remember the old, if the kid in the Christmas story had had the glasses, he wouldn't have shot his eye out. Of course he, so they offer a limited amount of anything that's gonna prevent spalled from coming up, debris, junk, bullet hits around you or fragmentation around you and the secondary stuff comes in. The idea behind this is that it's not gonna shatter and create more fragmentation. The other thing about the material that was used, and again, I think it's Lexan, but I could be wrong. Because there's, like I said, there's another thing called Lexanite. It was out there, I don't know what's happened to that. It's kind of like Kevlar is not, Kevlar is a brand name, Kevlar is not the product. Kevlar is a brand name. And the idea behind this is if you're in a vehicle, moving along on an APC or riding along in a Doom buggy, and some kicks up from the other vehicle and goes smack right into your face. You don't have that spalding effect, the spald effect where it hits the plastic, the plastic shatters into a cone. The energy is distributed and you have this piece of plastic that pops into your eye or into your face somewhere at the same velocity that the little pebble or rock did or chunk of metal. So, it works. There's all kinds of examples of testing. Years ago, there were a lot of videos out there, comparatively demonstrating the different types of lenses, but it was a DOD thing. So, they are worth having. They're definitely worth using. Again, if you pay attention, when you get the dust and wind goggles, not all of them read the same on the box. This is what I'm saying. Some people have these boxes. You might even...I'm going to point this out. If you have one of these green military dust goggle boxes, did you read it all the way? Most people say, oh, I looked at the box, there's goggles in there. Look at the box and read the nomenclature on the wide, flat surface. It will tell you everything you need to know, okay? And it gives you all the specs and information and what's in the box. So, you might even have a pair of the laser protection and they'll all be ballistic. They should all be the newer ballistic if you bought them and they were built in the 70s, 80s, 90s on. They would be comparable. Now, here's the thing. And I would point out there is a source. If you can't find the donor destruction, Because we have industrial and scientific activities going on over the country, we have PPE, personal protective equipment supply companies out there. And who is one of the biggest out there available? Why Granger? And if you go to Granger, and if you're willing to spend the money, kind of like what our caller talked about before, you get what you pay for, okay, you're gonna go low end, mid grade or top grade. Well, if you go over to Granger, all of the above is possible. And laser protection goggles are available over the counter. Now, we're not talking surplus, we're talking factory production cost, plus retail advancement. So, but consider this, lasers are a reality on the battlefield. So investing in this technology, it would be worthwhile, it would be who view to do so. By the way, I noticed something. Have you ever watched the movie Demolition Man? Remember, it wasn't Judge Dredd, I am the law, but it was the same guy, Sylvester Stallone. Remember when he goes into the museum? Well, he goes where's he gonna get the guns? Well, the only place you could get the guns in this day and age is in a museum. A museum. I want you to pay attention if you've watched the movie. I saw it right away. They were very accurate in portraying the modern soldier, the future soldier that he took the blaster, the kind of rail gun from. If you go back and look at the movie, he's wearing a pair of laser defense lenses. And they're the model that I have right in my hand. Go back and look at the movie. You'll see why you can pick them out. Now, this is the problem also with any types of defense and support technologies. You get an enhancement in one direction, but you may also get some other issue presented to you in another. Now, my point with laser defense is you might have to bite the bullet with a little more reflective surface that has a unique coloration that might actually, when somebody beams the area with any kind of illuminating light, including infrared, You're probably going to get some reflection. But on the other hand, if lasers are being heavily used, and they are to a degree for targeting and range finding, then guess what? The protection against the higher output, higher wattage lasers is something that realistically you should look at. Okay, now they're not going to get you every time. But I will point out that there is a, you have an optical sensor system out there that looks for reflective surfaces. Remember talking about the flash flare systems they were using from the air? They're out there on the battlefield in the infrared range too. They're expensive. Everything's expensive. Of course, when your government's are spending money, they don't care because they put a gun to your head and stole it out of your wallet. Just like they're stealing money out of your wallet for the illegal aliens right now and laughing their ass off, the American people are financing their demise. But what's interesting about this is that if you go to Granger, you can find a broad, a series of broad frequency spectrum goggles that will protect against a much more diverse number of different frequencies than say even most of the military ones do. Why? Well, because they're laboratory, laboratory and again, research and medical. Remember, there's a lot of laser being used in medical and a lot of it is high energy cutting technology. Wouldn't want to do something about that. Now you can't do much, but you can do some. I will say this, that if you know enough energy from a device of that type, if it can focus, yes, it could burn through things even if they have the shielding. But that would mean you'd have to be stupid and kind of sticking your head in front of there like you're waiting to do like slow motion laser suicide. You know what I mean? You'd be kind of dumb. Why are you going to stand there for minutes or minutes and tens of minutes and maybe an hour on end waiting for it to burn through everything? You wouldn't do that. So all of this defas technology works to an acceptable degree. That's another thing you need to remember. Nothing is, it's kind of like when you have body armor. We've talked about this before. You have body armor, you do not have bulletproof armor. If somebody keeps tapping you in the same place with a bullet, or a bullet already impacted, it's not long before all that energy is going to beat its way through to the soft chewy Oreo center which is you. Okay? So it's just a matter of everything is limited protection to one degree or another. And you have to balance this out too, you still got to be able to see. Okay, this is the other consideration. You have, it's kind of like welding. Welding glasses probably will offer a really good percentage of laser defense. Why? Well, because if you ever realize, you do realize the spectrum of light that you're cutting off with welding glasses includes pretty much everything that the sun generates, which is far in excess of probably what you're going to experience with the laser, even though it's more, again, it's frequency specific within a harmful range. But again, the problem is I could wear welding glasses, but how much can I do with them? What can I do with them in terms of normal activity? Might still be a good option for certain protection, depending on the kind of work that's being done. But at night, it would be kind of a bummer. You'd be the blind man with a cane, right? I'm wearing the... What about the... Those instant darkening ones? Do you think that they would be responsive enough for a laser? Some of them are. In fact, I believe right now they're now offering them more, you know, a wider range of models in commercial PPE and I believe there are some at Grainger right now. Now, the thing is that the, that photosensitive material operates in, depending on, what's the term for that? It's a photosensitive process, but there is a, they measure it. But it's obviously in microseconds, it has to be because it needs to be able to react as quickly as it detects an expansion in a particular calorie output of lumens, in order to see how much energy is being generated. And by the way, where that came from, nuclear defense, military application, and aircraft. You have what are called the the owl eyes that the military use you ever seen them back They finally showed them we told people about them for years and because that sounds stupid They look literally like you've got these big cone not cones discs in front of your on your helmet on a flight helmet and each one is about the size of a fan and what are they it's a series of shutters basically that are working at an incredibly high speed that are operating based upon a sensor system so they collapse like in other words they're cascading you try to get something in front of the eye and then there's a cascading shield that allows for you to still be able to see but or at the very least see to a degree but that eventually it cuts off your vision completely and we're talking about two of these things the size of a 14 inch fan centered around your nose and left and right of your head, okay, sticking out away from your flight helmet. Obviously, that's kind of cumbersome and takes up a lot of space, but it was necessary. The idea was as part of the nuclear, one guy's flying with the headset on, the other one is not. Typically, though, if it was a high threat, they had the ability to put both pilot and co-pilot into a set of these things and protect them from flash. Well, they've made smaller versions and, in fact, they also developed from the photosensitive reactive plastics and polymers that they've come up with, although I'm sure there's also coatings, to the point where, yeah, it's probable that those are out there, and yes, they would help. The big thing is, remember, it's the amount of energy that gets A through to your eye, to the cornea. The cornea, of course, depending upon angle of approach, that determines, obviously, how much energy is gonna make direct contact with your optic nerve. When it makes contact, the light will literally be allowed to travel down the optic nerve and strikes a point in the brain, but it's purely, it's all random angles. And so there's no guaranteed single effect with an attack of this type. And like I said, say it can be paralysis, loss of vision is gonna happen. Initial loss of vision is gonna happen no matter what. Then you will recover for a period of time, but then the scarring progresses if it's extreme and you progressively will lose eyesight, you will lose vision. To what degree determines this, determined by how long the exposure was to the surface, the area. It could be limited loss or it could be total loss and clouding of the cornea, which means cornea transplant is probably the only option you have, I believe. And I've got somebody trying to help me here. Okay. The keyboard was a threat here from multi-pause. Anyway, the other thing is that of course, now we're talking paralysis, yes, up to and including death. We're talking damage to, it could be any other motor function. The individual may have maybe paralysis, but involuntary physical activity continues because that part of the brain wasn't affected, so they breathe, they can move. to a degree, but it's all automatic. Again, it's purely, the other path of this is how, you know, kind of like what we measure with artillery, how big a bore was it that was, you know, coming down range, how much energy, how much capacity was behind that laser beam when it hit the, you know, hit the target. And we're not talking about cutting. We're not talking, guys, if you think this is Star Trek, we're talking about, well, it is space age technology. But we're not talking people flying around and burning or disintegrating. We're talking about just what basically is tissue damage. And if we can prevent the tissue damage by blocking the energy or dissipating to the extreme the energy so we minimize Whatever contact takes place. That's what you're trying to do just like the body armor body armor can't stop all the energy But you know if I can stop it so I can just put a dimple in the in the armor And you've got a sore chest rather than a gaping hole the size of your fist through your chest I'd say that's a much better situation more good error, okay? So any weapons system or even if it's not perceived as a weapon system though it can be used as such and If we can deflect it, obviously if we can deflect it 100%, and with laser it is possible to do so. The laboratory models that we're talking about and PPE equipment, you can pay just like we were talking about with night vision, just like we talked about with gas masks, you can pay any amount you want. Now you want better protection, you shell out more money. They even have complete face shields that go, in fact these face shields are built I believe that originally they were built, they certainly are good for protection of the face because all soft tissue, if you're working in a burn, a laser where it has the ability to cut, then yeah, it's probably you're going to get burned if you have soft tissue exposure. So they've made full face shields for a very long time too, kind of look like, no, come on, GI Joe, the bad guy on the other side, whatever the hell his name was, can't even remember that. But it's a full cover face shield. And again, You can pay whatever you want for those. Now, where did that bleed over to? Well, gas masks also would need laser protection shields. And so basically they do cut for especially the full face shields. There is a market for both PPE breathing protection, or in other words, respiratory protection and laser protection at the same time. So yeah, you can keep stacking on the defense technology to the point where you can improve your situation quite a bit. The issue is how much stuff can you carry around? Okay, remember this is your story. I've got ultra light this, ultra light that, and I've got an ultra light hundred other things and all of a sudden I'm not so ultra light. Those people- The ultra commander. Yeah, there we go. You got it. Cover commander. That's what I was trying to think of. You'd look like Cobra Commander. You really would. It'd be cool. You got a Kevlar helmet on. You got the full face mask with a full... By the way, this does have a full reflective surface. Although it's subdued, it has kind of a blue... Well, it actually has an oily color to it, like oil on water. Depending on how you look at it, it actually does shimmer a bit. It's kind of interesting. So it has that oil on water kind of look to the shield, the better ones do anyway. And it varies, quality of course. The idea was for the military is that they really do need to reduce your signature. So yeah, it won't look so oily shiny coolly as it does. How about subdued but still offer the protection necessary to keep you from losing your eyesight? Now, I want to point something else out before I go anywhere else because we've got 15 minutes here before the top. On the same subject, just to explain what we were talking about, Tex-Mex got it right when I was saying, does everybody understand what the Eskimo is used to? They used to produce Eskimo sunglasses. It's in your survival. escape and evasion manuals and winter operations manuals. Basically what it was is they would do, there's a number of different materials, they would actually could use birch bark or bark, they could use bone, and what they did is they created a cover for the eye with a slit right in the middle. What this does is restrict the amount of available light that could access the eye and so it reduces stress and prevents snow blindness. Now, we learned this long ago. How do I know this works? Back in the 90s, I learned this. We are self-educated, okay? Years ago, in the 90s, we were testing microwave weapons. We know what we can do with those and what we can build. We can wipe out a man's radio equipment and all of those electronics out to 100 yards with what we presently build. If I have a hut hut team coming at me before I ever pull the trigger, if I'm smart, I'm going to establish what we call basically a wash zone. And using the parabolic dishes and a microwave oven main tube, what we produce is a microwave fryer that could work out to approximately or probably greater than 100 yards while still focusing basically on the same target area. approximately 3 feet wide and approximately 3 feet to 4 feet tall, depending on the dish. The objective behind this is to toast slash neutralize all soft electronics. And this is with, that's with microwave. Now, at the same time, we already knew years ago, laser was a threat. And so we started on the other side of the state testing in a couple of different labs what we could do and what would be a fast simple solution. And one of the first things that we actually experimented with was reducing collection potential by restricting the introduction area, the collective surface area where the lens is, the front lens. Now, the first thing you want to test this with, you didn't see so much of the red dot, although it was out there in the 90s, red dot or anything like that, but all those technologies can still actually be used the same way. You just don't get the full circular effect of the targeting color in the middle of your pop-ups like that for just conventional optical cone-siting systems. But what you do is you take as simple as even if you had to just, you know, take duct tape on the front of the lens and you use electrical tape. You want to use something that preferably camouflage because you still got to think tactical. But you literally could cut a couple of pieces of tape, put them up front and allow for only about an eighth of an inch or a quarter of an inch of the center of the lens exposed. All you're doing is taping from one side to the other. Try not to get the tape out. Obviously, the sticky do on the lenses, so your best bet is to roll over the duct tape in the area where it's going to go over so you have duct tape outer face on both sides. And what you do is you tape that to the lower station to create, you know, like not the halfway point. It's got to be below that because you still need to use the optical device. It's useless if you got it there and you can't do anything with it. You then place another piece of tape. On the top you can take one of your, for instance, lens covers and take an X-Acto knife and cut a slit. The way to think about this, if you're trying to figure out what Uncle Mark's trying to describe, remember the blackout slits on vehicles in World War II? You ever see that? You have a slit where only a certain amount of the light is allowed. You don't have a general omnidirectional forward beam, but instead you had an overhead shield, which is one thing we're not talking about. But you have this slit right in the middle and it allows for only so much light to protect out. And that's only if you're allowing somebody to use their white light for night operations. Basically that's the image you should think of when we're talking about limiting the front collector. Now what does this do? It does not stop and it is not going to guarantee that 100% of whatever they're throwing at me is going to be stopped. No. But remember that it's going to limit the amount that your optical device can collect. And because this is a random throw the dice thing with the laser attack in that they can't, unless they're absolutely lined up with you and you're looking right at them and they're looking right at you, then you're going to get 100% of whatever. But if you still limit that, Remember that the light is never perfect and it bounces around the inside surface of your optical collector, gets to your eye and then still is bouncing. I mean, it's not bouncing like zigzag, like really bizarre, but all it takes is a few degrees and most of the energy is deflected into ineffective source, ineffective targeting. So, then again, they're not probably planning on doing this to you. It's just that this is most of the time just a random threat because of the nature of the equipment that's on the battlefield, both man-operated and synthetic-operated. In other words, remember there's a lot of robotoid, nematode, and hemorrhoid type technologies out there, you know, automated guns, things of that nature that are using the laser as an optical tracking system. It verifies that with a camera that collects the information to track the target to ensure that the targeting system alignment is in place. It doesn't need an optical target with a crosshair. It needs a collection device to confirm where the high dot of energy is making impact. And if it has to adjust, it will based upon its order to track, for instance, a thermal target or whatever, take your pick. Whatever system we're using for tracking. So the Eskimo sunglasses, Basically, that technique, that slip technique, we already tested it, we metered it, we did all kinds of fun stuff. It's just like developing the microwave weapon. I could fry any piece of equipment in front of me with the microwave weapon. I know that if I take certain precautions, if I knew I was in a very, very high laser-rich environment, or we saw that the enemy shifted to employing that technology much more heavily, that we have a countermeasure. And here's the important thing, our countermeasures are vastly cheaper than the equipment that they're using. Always remember that, all the crap they're carrying, the night vision, their radio equipment, when you fry it, they don't have any EMP protection on any of that junk. So when you toast it with a microwave, you took and built this device without use of a parabolic dish that you get off the roof or the side of the house that are abandoned all over this country for free. You take and use the exact same control point where the collector is located and that's going to be your broadcast point. Take a 60 watt, 70 watt, I love the Amana radar range because there are 90 watt tubes. All the guts and the electronics are there. You hook everything up. You don't have the arrestor or the safety device on because you don't have a door. And you do know that when you hit it, you are intentionally trying to do something to somebody, okay? Now, in the long haul, microwave constant broadcast is also very detrimental to people. But what we're trying to do is take something out that's even more sensitive, a subprocessor and microprocessor electronics. With vision, remember, oh by the way, the laser's down range. If you're able to hit the technology like that and continue to inundate it, it too is not properly shielded and the lasers, or at least a supporting circuitry for the lasers, can be knocked out. You know just matter how much energy you're willing to put down range and are you able to retarget? Now remember this isn't the only thing going on because real bullets and missiles are still flying and mortar rounds are still going down range and artillery is still falling and aircraft are still winging by. So this is part of the constant dynamic of the battlefield. However at the personal personal end, breathing is especially critical. And not being blind on the battlefield is especially critical. So these are areas, as we've said, that should be priority. If you do not have a gas mask, you are very foolish right now. In fact, if you don't have multiples, you should have more than one. You're very foolish right now, unless you hate the other people standing around you, cuz here's what's gonna happen. You think you're gonna be alone when something like that where that's needed takes place? Having other people fight over one gas mask is so embarrassing. Of course, you won't fight, but for maybe three or four or five minutes, and then they're not fighting much at all if they don't have a gas mask. And when I say fight, I mean fighting over the gas mask. Whoever gets the gas mask runs in the closet, shuts the door, and blocks the door while everybody outside is scrabbling at the door, but weaker and weaker by the moment until finally you're just really quiet in the other room. And you have to push the door open because the bodies are laying on the floor and wheezing and wiggling around like fish gasping out of water. Yeah, yeah. So, gas masks can probably be a real good idea. Ice-site's kind of convenient because it'll get you off the battlefield. It doesn't just get you into the battlefield. But if you can see, it's not like you're the three blind mice trying to figure out how to get away from, you know, the guy who can see. Doesn't happen all the time. But it is obvious in this age that realistically, yes, we are in the 21st century, and lasers, we're going to use them on them. I haven't picked up any lasers for targeting so much as I picked up and tried to find bigger and better lasers. I will say this, I've joked about it. We have a muzzle loading laser, we have one. We have a laser that will cut metal at a quarter to a half mile. I think it will reach a mile and still do significant damage. Where did I get it from? Well, years ago, U of M property control, stuff coming out of the scientific offices of whatever, over there was a slab mounted. And it's for, I don't know what it was for really. I mean, it was from one of the physics departments, but it was put on a piece of granite slab for leveling. So this is more like precision cutting for some form of industrial application. Now, we can power it up. I know it works. I slid it sideways to somebody else because we did want to do some other testing. But theoretically, we have one laser, probably do, one hellish work on somebody at maybe 100 yards. So I've never tried it on hamburger or roast or anything like that. But since it's a one-inch board device and its output is, you know, in the horrendous range. It's one of those things where we can't really track somebody with it, but by God, if we line it up with a door, it'll probably burn through one, two, or three people, at least their legs or something. It'll at least hurt a lot. That's kind of fun because, again, can't move it anywhere too far. It's heavier than sin. It could be mounted on something, but it's kind of, that's why we're joking, like I said, it's a muzzle-looting laser. You can point it one spot, you can use it that time. You better win because you aren't going to be able to swing it around and point it at anybody else easily. But wherever doorway you pointed it at, when they bust through the door, you know what that tuck is? That's when you stop using the laser and the air that was being burned by the laser beam itself. When it stops, there's a vacuum and the crack is from the air slapping back into that little channel that's been created and cut through the atmosphere. It's pretty cool. Although with a bigger one, it's not so, it's like better have earplugs. Fun stuff, fun technology, dangerous as hell, and there are solutions. Coggles, sun, wind, and dust. One pair with lenses for laser and with ballistic and ballistic protection. One each green for night. One each brown for day. There you go. So, wait a minute, green for night. Yeah, green for night. Always remember that. That means it's hard to see. Yeah, but it's harder to see when the laser hits you, as we said. So, next, real quick here. So it's Weapons Wednesday, we've been talking about weapons defense and weapons technology and how it can be employed, but conventional ammunition is kind of handy. I would recommend that you go over to Atlantic Firearms, I've said this a couple times, they have a ton. I started going through it and man they picked up a bunch of handguns from one, I don't know what this is, a police trade in but I don't know where. But there's a bunch of really nice, in particular, models that you would see from the, oh, as early as the 60s, because they've got Model 39s, Model 59s. They got all the Smiths from the late, late 70s and 80s. There's a bunch of Rugers. For you Ruger shooters, you might want to go over there to Atlantic Firearms if you're looking for more of the 80 or 90 series Ruger pistols, and a lot of guys have hundreds of these in these units. They got a bunch of them, and they look to be in excellent condition. I don't know, I don't think they were carried. I think they're hangar queens from whatever department or their pickups from something. I don't know. But there are many, many, many other weapons. And in addition to that though, ammunition. You need to go look at their ammunition selection. There's quite a few things that they picked up recently. And you need to go through the inventory to see if there's something there to make sense. A couple of 9mm deals that are not bad. And they do have some 545x39 AK-74 ammunition. Now, if you guys didn't see this or hear, not see here last night, the discussion about the, a possible revolution in America. Hey, wow, I couldn't believe that. Based on the continuous, continuous belligerent acts by the communists to try and undermine the election that probably we will never get to. Or if we do, it becomes as obvious as it did this last time. then it is very probable we are headed into a war for independence. You don't want to call it a revolution because we're going to break free from the oppressor that has finally decided to show its full red and yellow colors. And that means it's a war for independence against the globalists. It's time for one of those again. It's going to happen. Go to war in 24. God bless our republic. Death to the world order. We shall prevail, ladies and gentlemen. The empire is on the run. We're on the muggle day and night and we will be back. Go run, use the bathroom. Go use the goggles. Get some air bubbles. Yeah, grab a couple coffee. And we will be back in a minute here with the second, the intel report. It is Weapons Wednesday. Your mind is your first best weapon. But you better back it up with ass. We're just gonna turn our head into a canoe and leave you on the ground, Dad. A figure walked in through the mist with a flintlock in it. 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 length of the grave, the freedoms we secured for you, we hoped you could 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 is a 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. 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 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 won't 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 will fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear and be a slave? Oh, sons of the Republic, arise. Take a stand. Defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the land. Preserve our great Republic and eat God-given right. And pray to God to keep the torture of freedom burning bright. As I awoke he vanished in the mist for whence he came. His words were true, we are not free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now as tyrants trampled each god given right, we only watching tremble, too afraid to stand and fight. If he stood by your bedside in a dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he'd fought to keep, what would be your answer if he called out from the grave, build the land of the free and home? Remember your training and you will come back alive. Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. This is the second hour of the afternoon intelligence report. I'm Mark Carkey. One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters, both on and behind the lines in occupied territories. Northeast, Southeast, North and West. Ladies and gentlemen, you are listening to us on www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com. LibertyTreeRadio.org. And we're on satellite. Once you hide all our merchant-made operators out there, no matter what body of water you're on, analog or digital, as far as your technology. We're also a myriad of other technologies, both inside and outside these United States. It is Weapons Wednesday. It is the 21st of February, the end of the third full week. Remember, there are seven days. This is the 21st. Oh, that's right. It is the 16th year of open. And so obviously, in your face, Fabian socialist and Soviet socialist occupation, of America with the K. 2024 Old Earth Calendar, I'm giving her all she's got, Captain. And 2024, the first book, Battle for the Republic, The Dance of Swords. And for everyone out there, oh, what a dance it will be. We will maintain the music. First of all, real quick, again, the sources. Grainger is not the only company out there for industrial PPE, but it is very common for everyone to find. And Grainger has made a point of collecting a vast distributor provider database that, again, they probably don't have most of it in inventory, but they have delivery, retail, provider priority. So when they want something, they get it faster. They're high on the list because they're a big volume company with a lot of throw weight. Okay? You always want a Granger catalog. No, it's outdated almost as quickly as you get it because there's always something new. Well, in theory, though right now the economy is not that great. But get a Granger catalog because you don't have to look online. And although it is the thickness of a dictionary or, you know, a Bible, oh, it's a big, it's a thick one. It is worth having, plus you'll have toilet paper later on. The Granger catalog, like the Sears Robux catalog, can go out in the outhouse in the steel bread can or the old cake pan, you know, can, tin, so that when the time comes, you can read about lasers and wipe your arse with them in the next breath. Okay, as needed. We can read about lasers and then what you read, you utilize. Okay, it will serve a purpose. And the nice thing about Grainger catalogs is that 10 weight paper, which makes a much better Sears and Roebucks kind of toilet paper than now a note tablet. That's a little coarser and a little harder on your rear end. See, everything serves more than one purpose and we always look at multitasking for everything that we have, including Granger catalogs. Okay? Never throw out a phone book either. You'll see why down the road. Anyway, well, you'll know why down the road. Collect telephone books. They also store nicely too. Better than toilet paper actually does for the most part. Anyway, a couple of the things here real quick. Over at Palmetto, oh yes, I got to do this right away. Palmetto State Armory, Palmetto State Armory, Palmetto State Armory, they got a deal this week. I don't know how long it's going to last. It started already, so it may be only during the week deal. They have one of their dagger pistol frames complete. I believe it's $49. A complete lower. Now, remember, that's a Glock system. So, if you have spare slides already on the shelf with spare barrels, $49 will put another pistol in your pocket there, guys. Takes Glock magazines. So, if you go over to palmettostatearmory.com, palmettostatearmory.com, Palmetto State Armory, I don't care what color it is. I'd love it if I get one with green top, brown bottom, and then another one with brown bottom or green bottom and brown top. Slides are typically all in the black blue though, black or blue, whatever. But, park-rise also. But, again, you can't beat the price on this. If you already have blocks in service, the dagger is going to be totally familiar for you as far as operation, maintenance, the whole nine yards. And that is over at PalmettoStateArmory.com. The dagger complete frame, all parts on board. It's an FFL item. I'll tell you that right now. It's an FFL item, of course, but for the price, you can't beat it. And if you need more pistols to put on the shelf and you've already got Glocks committed to your inventory, grab it. Even if you don't, Glock mags are everywhere. So if you want to build another pistol or if you need another pistol, you can do it in pieces. The frame is the toughest monkey there. So grab the frame for $49 and you can just start quietly and passively picking up everything else you need and pop pop boom boom you got another handgun. And magazines just look for the cheapest for the mostest. Now here's another thing about that. You wouldn't normally bury a Glock if you needed to put a pistol into a cache somewhere. But when they're only $49 a piece, you know just like the terra pistols or the you know this the Walther creeds that were out there, of course a lot of you are carrying those, but the Walther creeds were under $200 for the longest time. And another one are high points, they're great. High point, blah, blah, blah, yeah, I'll tell you what. Put a high point into cash with ammunition and other equipment and a spare set of boots and everything else, you're not gonna cry. put a $2,000 or $1,000, you know, take your pick, firearm and put it in the cash. Now, maybe if you're rich, you don't care, but most everybody I think is listening is not rich. You'd be always antsy that it's a $1,000 pistol, I want it where I can see it. But if you've got a couple hundred dollar utility handgun, you know, works, it's gonna work and you know, it's gonna shoot Ching Lee just fine, pop, pop, boom, boom, then you don't care. In this case, the daggers are nice guns, but for $49 you won't care that much. So for under $200 you can put a complete Glock pistol together if you're patient. Slides, barrels, everything else you need is all over the place. And magazines, they're everywhere. Which is why, again, if you've got Glocks, I can buy Mags constantly. Find the cheapest price for the most Glock Mags, pick it up. Now another package they have there, I think it's at the top of the scroll for the deals for this week, is 10 P-Mags and a little, I think it's a red dot site, I don't know what model. But it actually comes out to less than $10 a piece for the mags, considering what the price for the scope normally is, the optical device. It's just a peep, it's a pop up zero peep side is what it is. But the price is good for that particular bundle. We take a look at it. You'll see what I'm talking about and go through the other deals for the week that they've got right now. And that's over at Palmetto State Armory. Again, the frame is earth brown. I don't care. I wouldn't care what color. I'm not buying that gun to make it look pretty. I'm buying the gun because of the tool in the toolbox and still a good tool in the toolbox. So again, that's over at Palmetto State Armory. Now, another one, Center Fire Systems also has a bunch of parts kits. And again, too numerous to mention, but they have many of them. And not all of them are super pricey. But if you have a grandpa gun out there and you recognize that, oh man, that's got one or two little parts that I need, the gun works, but it'd be nice to have a replacement fill in the blank. You might want to go through center for our systems and look at these chop ups. What I think these are are department guns. These are probably pickups or they're from overseas from you know, Chingochavas's police station out of Paraguay, Uruguay, Chile, Peru, I doubt Venezuela, but it could even be from Bogota, Colombia, could be from you know, Argentina, Brazil. But wherever they're from, I think what they did is they obviously stripped all the parts off and chopped the frames. Now a lot of police departments do this too. But looking at the average age and types of weapons, this looks like it's an overseas, down south kind of thing. The gun, the parts look okay for the most part, but some are high mileage, okay? So you want to go through there and look. It doesn't make an difference if you have an orchies and you need parts. To buy the whole package would be worth it because you could make a little parts kit up and have that for that handgun and you could keep it running for a good long period of time. You could be able to pass it down to the next generation fully operational with the spare parts. And that is the plan. We're gonna keep all this equipment in operation. We're gonna keep it functional. We're gonna make sure that it's passed on and America is gonna maintain its heritage. It means we will have to fight an American war for independence to do it. going to war in 24, that's inevitable. But again, after we win, what are you going to do with your victory? Well, first of all, we're gonna maintain and support everything that gave us that victory. And the tools in the toolbox were all part of history once we win. Well, you think that was in a war? Yeah, I think at least one. What do you mean? You mean it was in the big war? Yeah, our big war, the one we just had. Yep, son, that's it. Yeah, this is your granddaddy's gun. He carried this in 24 to 29. And he got hurt. So he passed down to your Uncle Frank and Frank carried it for the rest of the war. I think he shot a couple of the politicos who were trying to get out of Lansing. Put a couple of bullets in there, Arce, at least I know that cuz he got pictures. Like he was going hunting for deer, had them hanging by their heels. Well, anyway, I can go up. Otherwise, now next, an AR-15 is another deal. Boy, I've got a... Well, it's Weapons Wednesday, okay? Now, what would I consider the optimal militia weapon if I were to go contract? Which, gee, I might be doing that right now. I've actually been surveying and I've asked for bids. Ideally, the regular AR-15 M4 type, but with a straight barrel, I don't want any steps or chipsures or weird angles to the barrel itself because they did that, you know, to reinforce it supposedly, which is BS. I want a straight tube barrel. I want a simple handguard. I want standard A-frame front. I can have a picatinny rear because that's the norm for production for CNC. I'd like it with a carrying handle instead. Well, let's pass a or it's classic. No, no, it's simple kiss. Keep it simple stupid. We need a large quantity of utility standard air 15 non operator rifles. What I mean by that is without all the doodads and nonsense on board. Why? Because most of our people are not operators never will be. They're going to be infantry to a degree, but remember everybody's an infantryman first, but there's a lot of other tasks that don't require all the hang up junk hanging from the firearm. So ideally that would be the weapon, but right now, right now, We're to the point where picatinny rails down the whole top of the hand guard and side guard and you know bottom guard or there Oh, well, there's their cheap and you know what for a hundred and seventy nine dollars you can get a Without bolt carrier and charging handle you can get a couple of different uppers in fact. They've got one that for a hundred and fifty nine Now remember well you got to turn right around and buy a bolt carrier, but if you already bought Years ago when they were $39 like a lot of you hopefully did when I told you to when there were those deals like at AIM surplus for $39.95 if you bought three of them a lot of people did Well, if you got a bunch of bulk carriers hanging around now is your chance to pick up the difference and over at Bear Creek Arsenal com they have a bunch of deals 159 to 179 a piece for 16 inch upper Picatinny rail, flat top for the receiver, nothing to write home about nowadays because it's got all the bells and whistles on it. Now you can get them with an A-frame front or with a gas block and more Picatinny rail, of course, at that end. Or the whole rail system in the front, which has the gas block in it, et cetera. You know how that works. So anyway, they're out there. Again, go check Bear Creek Arsenal out and see what the deals are. I did not see a magazine deal there except that they do seem to have some pretty good prices right now on AR-10 magazines. So you might want to watch for that. Again, if you've committed to an AR-10, you need to keep buying and like several weapons we've talked about, if you've got an AR-10, every chance that you can, ideally make it a schedule that either every paycheck can be paid once a week, or every second week, you need to be buying mags for your AR-10. It is an orphan rifle in that respect. Nobody has standardized on the AR-10 as a regular military. The reason that the M14, M1A pattern rifles can stay in service is because of the great number of significant manufacturers that were available to the countries that adopted them and the magazines that they put out along with spare parts. We have as many Taiwanese and Korean M14 magazines as we do American in many units. Why? Well, when we adopted the M14, Taiwan adopted the M14. And when they did this, they cranked out their own magazines and they did a beautiful job. Those magazines are, in some cases, depending on what year they were produced, are actually tougher than the US M14 mags we produced. Now it depends on the year, you got to pay attention to the codes on the packaging. Doesn't make any difference, they're all good mags. And then Korea also used the M14. Even though it also obviously adopted the M16 rifle. The M14 was in service for a very long time, along with the Garand. They didn't throw anything away. They're a poor country. They can't just afford to chuck stuff like the wasteful Americans. But because of this, there's a lot of spare parts for the M1A. The F and FAL, same thing, so many countries used it. Magazines are still being produced right now, brand new in the box. But surplus was out there by the ton and so there's lots of FAL. G3HK91 slash PTR91, I have always qualified. Guess what? We've been feeding off that for how many decades now from the surplus from Germany alone? The original mags were coming in for under a dollar a piece. Now they're more than that, but they're still the most affordable 7.62x51 NATO magazine on the market. And you're getting a military magazine. You're getting a German produced, dated, and serial numbered magazine. For as little as $4 or $5 still if you look around. So you really can't beat that. However, for the AR-10, excellent rifle. I've already explained. It's muscle memory is perfect. You go from one gun to the next. Everything's in the same place. So I will not in any way, shape or form argue with somebody who thinks they want to go to the AR-10. But you do need an AR-15. You want an AR-15 and an AR-10. We need every main battle rifle in 7.62x51 NATO or .30-06. or whatever other caliber you choose because we need to hit them farther, harder, and put them down dead. And a battlefield supremacy round, a main battle rifle round is your first choice. That's your best choice. I don't want to be equal to the 5.56. I want to be superior in projectile weight and energy down range, and I want that energy farther out. and with greater precision. And so I want that bigger cartridge and I want that bigger bullet. But I also still will tell you, buy an AR-15 because well, we got to strip stuff off the enemy corpses, it's gonna be 5.56. Or it's gonna be 5.45 by 39, or it's gonna be one of the other like 5.7s. UN slash NATO troops will be carrying the 5.77 guns. So get used to the idea, you'll be picking some up. And if you do have them, yeah, eventually we'll be killing enough of the bastards begging of whatever foreign language. that we'll have more. You'll get more from them. Parque, Parque, yes, yes, I know. I'm going to have a picnic too. Pocky-pock you. There you go. By the way, strip his ass naked. Don't take the underpants. Smells like he's had beans last night. Anyway, next. They might. Yep, caller. Go ahead and jump in there, please. Yeah, this is Tex-Mex. Yeah, I was just going to go over what you just talked about there. If you haven't, I don't know if you've seen that video, the Grand Thumb video, but he does talk about in the video about the security round. Yes, go ahead. Yeah, yeah, he talks about security round that they... They employed it quite, you know, that they did use the security around it was because they had to be sure, you know, you know, people pop up and do, do crazy things, you know, or play dead. So there was a lot of that. He said there was a lot of that that went on, but I just thought that that was kind of goes what you were talking about. That's it. All right. I'm out. Bye. Thank you. Appreciate that. And for everybody out there, again, a reminder also with the air can the usual firing pin extractor ejector. Let's not forget that. Most important here is that the bad guys are bragging about what they're gonna do now. If you've been listening to what's been put out there by the flapping lips of the Soviets, they are trying to pump their troops up. And it's like I told you before, they're gonna tell them they're gonna be able to rape, kill, pillage, and burn. You've already seen what the illegals are doing in New York. And that's not a surprise to any of us. In fact, guys, I'm going to tell you something. When the Mariel boat lift took place, I participated on the fringe of that. Part of the unit that I was with, the headquarters group, a lot of the individuals, they were able to deal with the language. They had served it with in different periods. I remember that was very early on. We still had guys here from the 50s, from World War II, Korean War, 50s and into the 60s before Castro. And so what they did is when the Mario boatlift illegals came in, I'm sorry, refugees, not all of them were illegals per se. Well, yeah, they technically work as they really didn't, they weren't invited, okay? But what happened is they split them up out of Florida, although they have a processing point there. But they were in a rush because they kept having to deal with more people. And so they shipped them up to Fort McCoy, Wisconsin and other locations. Well, it was a total dog and pony show from the get go with the big snowsed, you know, areas free type crew, the kosher mafia coming in. And they were the Trotsky glass wearing purple haired fruit loop queers a $3 bill pedals that we've warned you about time and again, operating there in Fort McCoy. And they would not secure them properly. They would get out, go into town, rob, rape, do whatever, run back to the base, run back onto the fort and hide. Now I can even point to, I can show you on the map where they were located. But what is fascinating about this is, again, Nothing that you're seeing is new. This is all stuff. They just wait long enough and everybody they figure will be stupid and you know ignorant of what whatever happened in the past. So everybody does the, oh we just didn't know they were gonna be like this. We didn't know this was gonna, yes they did. They know exactly what they were doing. Like I said before they don't invent anything new. They just do it over and over again. Only in this case, they just violated the border completely. We're being overrun with an invader. Now there's a bunch of yap in the last 24 to 48 hours about well, sabotage and then oh my god, they're blah, blah, blah, fill in the blankets like thesis and thesis synthesis. Create the problem, demonstrate the problem and demand a big ass police state solution. Yeah, all the very people who were telling you first of all nothing was going on the very controlled press that told you there wasn't any problem are now bleeding as the Judas goats that they are and they are Judas goats the press I got him in front of me I'll shoot their ass faster than the bastards that are in the foreign uniform or the police state uniform in a heartbeat In fact, it will be automatic. If you're gonna be shocked by that, don't be standing around me when this thing kicks off, because I'm gonna tell you right now, it's gonna bullet right up there, high and dead real fast. That's part of the getting rid of the bumps in the curtain, people. The control press is already gone before the first bullet has flown. The control press is already gone. They were on the list to do right from the get go. Everybody remember that. So anyway, what's interesting is they are lamenting and gnashing of teeth about the possibility of, you know, this is like a forward army. You mean like we described for how long? So instead of, you know, go, oh yeah, they're finally on track. No, they're not. They were always into this game. They created this problem. They helped to create this problem. They promoted the idea, oh, we need the sanctuary fill in the blank garbage. Now, As far as the idiot sticks that are at the state level, whatever, those buffoons are no different from any of the other trash. They knew what they were creating, they know what they were doing, they can't get off, they are not going to get off on this, they're not going to get off with a, oh well, they just didn't know. Yes, they did. Yes, they did. Yes, they did. And so those traders need to have, their arse needs to be down the road with all the rest. We're not giving it any there is no will they finally learn or they change their mind course they change their mind because the spit swappers and ring knockers that they ride with told them to Because the only way that they they say anything is because they read from a teleprompter Remember that that's that's their Lord. Whoever it is. It's up in the booth. That's typing into the teleprompter And because of that, they, for whatever shekels, went right along with the demise of the country. So piss on them. Go ahead, call your champion there. Hey, it's Todd Dan Orlando. You're talking about night vision. I went on eBay just now, and somebody has, if you type in Firefield, all one word, Firefield, it's a company that made night vision years ago, and they're out of Belarus. This is where they come from. They made a fire filled NVRS, stands for Night Vision Riflescope, for years it was a Gen 1. And I bought one back in 2015 and it's actually a decent setup. There's a guy, they were selling for, I got it on Amazon for $225, it was a Black Friday special back then. There's a guy right now selling one on eBay, $199. 15 bucks shipping. So if you type in Firefield NVRS, it's Gen 1. It's actual night vision. It's not digital. And it works really well. I was surprised with it. There's another one here. If you have some money, I saw this, the auction on this end today, but he re-listed it. It's called American Eagle NVEC-602. This is a smaller Gen Tree scope. And these go for, you know, north of $3,000. He put it up here, signing bid $800, buy it now priced $1,600. He's got a reserve on it. I don't know what it is. But there were only two people who bid on it today and the price went up to like $820 and it didn't meet its reserve. So if you have the money and you offer this guy $1,200, which might be the reserve anyway, you might take it. So this is Gen 3 American Eagle. It's a small, it's probably the same size as an AGM Rattler, but instead of spending $3500 on an AGM Rattler, which is a 640 resolution thermal scope, you can get this for a third in price. 7 bucks shipping. There's also, I think I mentioned yesterday, Site Mike used to make something called the Ghost Hunter. They are Gen 1 Plus monoculars or binoculars. On EBA right now there is a 4-power monocular and I think it's like 300 bucks and there's another guy that's got the binoculars, which is the same generation, and those are going for about the same price. And the binoculars come with this Gold Crusher setup. which can be mounted on the helmet as well. So, yeah, they're Gen 1, but they work. Now, there's another company called Yukon, which I think is the same as Firefield, but these are some words that you should keep, save as a search. If you type in Firefield Night Vision, they made these little binoculars, Gen 1 binoculars for years, and right now they're on eBay, they're going for about $150, $200. Yukon also, which is the same setup, if you type in Yukon Night Vision, they made the pretty much exact same scope, and then they make these small handheld binoculars. Some of them are digital, some of them are actual analog night vision. They're all Gen 1, but they're cheap. You know what I mean? You throw them in your pack, and, you know, on a Let's say like a half moon They're really good on full moon. They're excellent. You're not gen 3, but they're only 2 300 bucks So, you know if you're new to the night vision game and you want to get into it, you know dip your toes into it you can do so cheaply actual analog night vision is Yukon or fire field or you can get the a little bit better gen 1 plus with The sight mark ghost hunter. Now there are still some Gen 1 scopes out there. Occasionally you'll see, but they're upwards of $600, $800 for a used Gen 1 scope. I'm not going to pay that much. In fact, I picked up a Gen 3 today for $900 on eBay. And he paid $3,500 for it a year and a half ago. So they're out there. And the thing is, a lot of these sellers don't really care that they're losing money on it. They're just either this guy that I bought it from, he's got two PBS-14s, three PBS-7s, and he's got a couple thermals plus a couple other scopes. He's just like, I want to get rid of this one because I want to put some money into a new thermal that I'm getting. And he didn't list it really properly. The proper way to list it is to use the words night vision and use the words, you know. But what they use is just the scope nomenclature, like the brand of the scope and the model number. And people aren't searching for that. People are searching for night vision and then it comes up as either Gen 1, 2, or 3. And for some reason, no one had Was putting this on their watch list and nobody bit on it. So I grabbed it and he said that this was What armistice calls a pinnacle I TT pinnacle alpha tube which is hand select so Apparently it's a little bit better Something called a signal to noise ratio a little bit better resolution And a little bit better Something called FOM which is figure of merit. Another thing I want to mention Mark is that since we're talking about night vision there's some considerations that people need to have when buying night vision. And night vision has something called a spec sheet or a specification sheet. And the specification sheet will tell you certain things about the night vision tube that you need to know in order to make a decision as to whether or not you're going to buy it or not. And the specifications will determine whether or not, you know, it can justify the price that it's getting. For example, you see a PBS-14. If it's just a basic PBS-14 with a tube that's like You know, yeah, it's generation 3, but it's not really that great. The resolution's okay. It's not hand-picked. It's got some blemishes. And some of these intensifier tubes, they sell them on eBay, and you can still take a picture of it, and you can see all the blemishes. It still has market value, okay? But, you know, when you look through it and you're looking at a forest, some of these blemishes you can't even see. If you're looking at an area in an urban setting where you have, like, you know, a totally brick wall or a stone wall or the side of the building and you want to turn on your Illuminaire just for a second to see what's sitting there. Yeah, you're gonna see the blemishes. So what it still has value in some of these tubes they may have a high amount of blemishes in zone one, which is right in the middle of the tube but it's got some really good specs and it's still going to you know, higher amount of money. So there's not very many videos that talk about this, but it's something that people should know about, especially when, let's just say when the balloon goes up, there's still going to be stuff out there that's bought and sold. And especially when you have mobile resupply pods out there, people are going to be out there combing the battlefield just to get stuff that they can either sell as war trophies or something they can get money out of. For example, you know, they don't have a supply chain in Ukraine right now. So, you know, people are selling what? Night vision scopes, bot sites, magazines, ammunition, guns, whatever. Okay, and if you go into a battlefield and that stuff's just sitting there, And people grab it if someone comes up to you after the fact and says hey I have a night vision scope or I have a TVS-14 or I've got a dual setup. And if you're probably not going to have the spec sheet, but if you know beforehand what a high figure of merit scope looks like versus a low figure of merit and you've got someone that has a low figure of merit, low SNR, high EBI, maybe low resolution and you look through the tube and you're like thinking to yourself, well, this isn't worth what he's saying because I'm looking at a light and there's a huge halo around it and the lenses are not mil-spec lenses, they might be AGM lenses and you get this whooping effect when you look at headlights or street lights or something like that. It's a guy from a monoculars asking $4,000 and it's not specification like that, there's nothing to justify the price. You're going to tell the guy that this guy's got a tube. He's got a tube in here with his own one blem or his own tube blem that's got some shaded areas. Not the resolution is not very good, but he wants $4,000. He can pound sand. But without knowing these things, you're going to get caught up in being taken advantage of after the fact. Even now, If you go on eBay, you got people that will take blurry photos or tax swap. They'll take a blurry photo of their night vision and be like, okay, this might have bums. Because a blurry photo will not show you the exact bums. In fact, I bought an NVM 14 off of eBay last year. And I messaged the guy and I said, look, dude, This has got a zone 1 blem and it didn't show up in the picture. He was like, oh, I didn't see that. And I said, dude, you said you had 10 hours of use on it and you didn't see a zone 1 blem? And he's like, well, you either send it back to me or I'll give you $200 off. So I took the $200 off and I kept the binocular because it was a good binocular. But I was kind of miffed because he posted a picture that did not show the blemish on the GEM-3 tube. So, these are all things that you've got to familiarize yourself with when you do this. And I think one of the best videos, I want to tell people what this video is, the guy's channel is HOP, H-O-P. And he's got a video called Night Vision Specifications or Spec Sheets. And he talks about resolution, signal to noise ratio, something called EBI which is equivalent background illumination and also figure of merit. He talks about all these things in a format that anybody could understand if you just listen to what he says but they're important things to know so you don't get taken advantage of when you start buying night name. These figures aren't really that important when you're talking about buying Gen 1 or digital. They're not important at all when you're talking about digital because digital doesn't matter when you're talking about these things. But there are some things that do matter when you're talking about digital and one of them is frames per second. For example, if you're going to buy a thermal, you can buy a ATN older thermal in 640 resolution, but if it's only 30 frames per second or 30 hertz, which is the same thing, When you're moving the scope around the viewfinder, you're gonna get glitching. You're gonna get pixelation. But when you do that with 60 frames per second, you won't get that problem. I've got a Sightmark 4K Max and it's weighted at 60 frames per second and it'll burn through a battery in three hours. But if you're looking at someone's yard who has a sprinkler on at night, The frames per second are so fast that you can see the water droplets coming out of the sprinkler no problem. If it was 30 frames per second, it would be glitchy and you wouldn't be able to see it. It's still useful. It's just not as good. So, and plus with 4K, you can really stretch the image out just like in a 640 resolution thermal scope. You can stretch it out as well when you do the optical magnification, which is all these things have is optical, or I mean digital magnification. You're going to stretch the screen. You're not actually working with lenses. You're just stretching the screen. And so it's important you have a higher resolution. If you get something, anybody can get a 256 resolution thermal scope for $800 or $1,000. But it's really only useful out to barely 100 yards. Now you can see thermal signatures out at like four and five hundred yards But it's so grainy that you really don't know what you're looking at So now ATM has come out with the 1280 resolution Thermal scope with the LRF model the laser rangefinder That thing is 1280 resolution and you can identify rats at 600 yards. That's how good the resolution is so You know, people need to familiarize yourselves with these things before they start spending money. I mean, it's okay to spend a couple hundred bucks and get something and be like, oh wow, this is cool. But you still got to realize that if it's digital, it's a toy. And if it's analog, you're going to need supplement elimination. If you have Gen 3, you can get away with half moon or If it's an open field, you can get away with no moon because I've got some videos of my NVM 14 with no moon and some heat lightening in the background. And the heat lightening is so bright on a non-autogated unit that you can see it as if it were regular lightening. That's how good the tube is. So, anyway, yeah, if anybody's got $200 and they want to get a Firefield NVRS, they got one on YouTube right now for $199, I think it's a good buy. But if you just want to get them an ocular to look through, they've got those analog ones Firefield does or Yukon does all day long for $200. They got the Binoculars for maybe $200, $300. That's it, Mark. Go ahead. There's another one called high bed hi bid.com and I know someone who bought a 18 engine 3 off high bed and it was he bought it for $1,280 and when we got it I compared it to my He's got a pvs14 and I've got an NVM 14 and those two are exactly the same resolution and tube and Then we compared it to this 18 Mars 4 and we're just blown away about how nice it was I mean it was like you know hand-picked tube was When they say it was a hand-picked tube they really meant it. It was pretty incredible So that was on high bid and I've gone on high bid and they have a few things here and there also gun broker Has a lot of night vision on there and Another one is tack swap Taxwap has its own reputation system where people buy stuff from someone and if they get a higher reputation you're gonna get what you pay for on Taxwap. It's literally T-A-C-S-W-A-P dot com. So anyway, it's important. Night vision is important. It's not just, this whole thing is not gonna be about shooting You know all the time it's going to be about intelligence reconnaissance and observation That's where you're speaking. It used to be called run dodge jump remember that so for a reason the one thing here, too Some of you just asking most of the new equipment is standard battery pack or batteries battery modules that are available Typically triple-a double-a can be the one two three battery Everything's out there. So you do have to investigate that to just that was a question because much of the early military Night vision is still laid around But it's in a unique battery configuration. They did that intentionally, so that if somebody pilfered it, available resources to continue to operate the equipment were not available. And we've kind of talked about that for a long time. So there is, in fact, there's even some of the Russian first-gen rifle scopes. In fact, you want to look at some history. Go over to Gunpartscorp.com, I believe they still have them and I think there are two or three other companies that have these offerings of Polish night vision equipment that are still off the shelf. They work to what degree, they'll either tell you they've been tested or not tested. This first generation means just that. It's not generation zero. In other words, these are not just infrared, although those are out there also. But these are pieces of equipment that other people have been experimenting with, but what's the first thing they have to overcome? Batteries. Because the system back then, and of course for the Warsaw Pact, a totally different configuration of battery power. In other words, what kind of battery packs were they using? What were they made out of? So this is another issue that you need to always keep in mind if you're looking at older equipment, but with newer equipment, figure out what it is. The first thing you want to do is if you can get disposables grab them But rechargeables or where you want to go with a percentage of your your energy backup And there are all kinds of solutions out there right now So it's barely a flavor choice. We have another color. Go ahead Yeah, there is a guy on YouTube or not YouTube, but eBay and the pvs7 and the pvs14 are different night vision setups and they use different tubes. One of them for the PBS 14 it's either a 10160 or a 11769. Okay and one is auto-gated one is not. But then the PBS 7 uses a 10130 and that is not interchangeable with the PBS 14 housing. Now there's a guy on YouTube that has made a monocular, what is it called, the printing that they do, the digital printing, the 3D printing. He has 3D printed a monocular which will accept the PVS-7 tube. So you will find a lot of PVS-7 tubes on eBay or elsewhere that are cheaper than the PVS-14 tubes. So you get the PBS-7 tube and you buy this guy's monocular, I think it's like around $700, which is the standard price for a PBS-14 monocular as well, and it will fit your PBS-7 tube. Pretty ingenious. Right, so it gives it a home. That is one of the advantages of the printable technology. It would be a solution for instance, replacing specific types of housings. and material, you know, components that typically can't be repaired. This is one of the problems with many of the hulls because they are an infusion casting or whatever variant in polymers that are used. There's not much that can really fix them. Now the components may not be damaged, but the again, you're going to see it in the future, you're going to see bullet strikes, you're going to see all kinds of other stuff going on. where repair is going to be needed and this would be again this is a direction to go why 3D printers would be handy and where they really apply better than most other solutions. They're not the perfect solution for everything and some of the applications are at least good for the it's good that they're training out in other words your finger how to make things to you know happen. But they would be better pressed into another mission as opposed to some of the work that they're doing. In this case, that's an example of where they would apply well, they do apply well because they're the other option. Either A, mimic what's already been built but replace it. B, is come up with a totally new design with regard to external solutions based upon, for instance, external options and controls because that's another thing that we're not necessarily going to be able to duplicate. are the individual control devices. We may have to switch over to something else to be able to operate the piece of equipment. Electronics, notoriously, as I've said, you know, 90% of what's done in electronics is surplus. It's the surplus from another generation rolled over to yet another application, and eventually something happens where they run out of those parts. And that's really the only reason that a lot of model changes take place. is because the widget parts have run out. We're feeding off overlapping generations of technology that go all the way back to the 70s in terms of components. The components literally are older, in many cases, than the internals or a particular core part of a machine when it comes to- Yeah, like a PBS 4. Like a PBS 4. Yeah, the- PBS 4 will go- top of the carry handle of the AR-15 platform, but the battery and the tubes are antiquated, but now people are starting to refurbish those as well. Right. So another thing is that if you're going to get into, you should already have this stuff if you have optics at all, but you need, before this goes down, You need a supply. Number one, you don't just use dishwashing liquid to clean the lens of your optics. You have to have special lens cleaner. And more importantly, you need a good supply of anti-fog for all your lenses, no matter what you have. Anaculors, night vision, day vision, whatever, you need anti-fog so you don't have that problem when you're out in the field. The last thing you need to do is have it rain or get this humidity up and gear and an LPOP and all of a sudden your lenses start fogging up and you don't have anti-flog. Or you can put it on there before you run out in the field. As a matter of fact, Supply Shed is one of the companies that has a lot of optics and optic support. The Supply Shed, their, oh forgive me, surplus shed, got Supply Shed, surplus shed. They carry a lot of optics, old military, but also a lot of the support items. And again, like a lot of these companies, they do post a lot of what they have, but not everything. So you're better off if you're looking for a particular product is drop them an email or give them a call. And if it's something in particular that you're looking for and a lot of the technology out there You don't have to buy brand new, there's all kinds of old inventory and support in the support category too. So you can find it if you search around. I get a regular update from them almost every what, fourth or fifth day. So I know they're still in business and they do have some other unique items that you might find useful. We've talked about shades, covers, rubber boots for optics. and all kinds of lenses. In fact, if you're going to develop something or you want to do research and development, Surplus Shed has a lot of raw materials sitting there. So it's another one that we need to take it into consideration and make a note of it and check it out later. We're almost to the top. Anything else? Before we go? No, sir. Okay. Thank you very much. Appreciate the input. And again, I would remind you, Don, this is what Don would do on a regular basis and reinforcing what he originally did decades ago, overall for 20 years. The interesting thing is, is that, again, a lot of what people are using now, in terms of like with the company ATN, etc. Don was the person who gave them a lot of feedback because of our field application and testing guys. You're using it today. Always remember that. A lot of other people were standing on somebody else's shoulders. And they're people who are unsung heroes. I'm beat meanwhile being inundated with questions while we have been sitting here. So I'm gonna have to take part in the hour break and deal with this. God bless our republic. And the people. We shall prevail ladies and gentlemen. The Empire is on the run. Don't worry, I'll answer all the questions. I was trying to take care of you while we were here on the air, but no, we can deal with this. For everybody out there, we're going to start our equipment train as militia. That was the 5-10 program. Last night on Fox, we're going to be talking about this at 8 o'clock. Last night, they acknowledged the elephant in the living room. And everybody is kinda going quiet very quickly. Guys, it's not an if we're gonna be in conflict. It's just when the stupid on the other side makes their move. Look out the way for now. Ed taking over more LTR coming up. It is Weapons Wednesday at Liberty Tree Radio. God bless. Gave her all that they had And her sister won't stop crying Us and father said she's dying That she's really trying Problem is, Sophie's lying Just like all the other girls Just like all the other girls Every word Just to fit into the ordinary Just to fit in And be like all the other girls Just like... Took off his three-cornered hat speaking low to me. We fought a revolution, our liberty. We wrote the Constitution as a shield from tyranny. For future generations, this legacy we gave. In this, the land home of the brave. The freedoms we secured for you, we hoped you'd always keep. The tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost, you're no more than a slave. In this, the land of the free and home of the brave. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun. Permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying how the money'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 you've taken Satan's 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 seize family farms 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 what you will fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear and be a slave? O sons of the Republic, arise, take a stand, defend the Constitution, the supreme law of the land, preserve our great Republic and each God given right, and pray to God, keep the torch of freedom burning bright. As I awoke, he vanished in the mist 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 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 fought to keep, what would be your answer if he called out from the grave? One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters both on and behind the lines in occupied territories West, North, Southeast, and, ladies and gentlemen, you're listening to us on www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com LibertyTreeRadio.org and we are on satellite once you hide all our merchant marine operators no matter where you are on the planet. Appreciate your rebroadcasting, analog or digital. We're also on a myriad of other communications technologies, both inside and outside these United States. And it is Wednesday, it's Weapons Wednesday. It is the 21st of February, this is the end of the 21st of February, so it's the end of the third full week of February. How do you like that? And it is, of course, the 16th year of Open Obvious. And in your face, Fabian Socialist and Soviet Socialist Occupation of America with a K2024 Old Earth Calendar, 2024 Battle for the Republic, The Winter War, Book 2. Anyway, we have Dave with us here. Dave, I'll tell you what, been some interesting things and announcements here in the last 24 hours or so, and statements made by people who are just kind of showing Well, we've been right all along. Of course, we already knew that. So what's jumping off there, please, sir? Well, okay, first off here, Mark. You know, we had Richard Mack, we had Chris Ann Hall here in Hillsdale County this past weekend. And, uh, caller called in and said, you know, Chris Ann's, you know, he heard that she set up the route for LaVoy whenever he was assassinated. Well, come on, anybody who knows me knows I'm gonna take a right to the source. So I got Tristan Hall right in front of everybody and I said, hey, you know, there's a question I was I was asked and I want to know the truth. Did you set up the route for LaVoy on the day he was assassinated? Her response was all go. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. I've heard many conspiracy theories about me. This is a new one. What do you mean? I said, this is what I mean. This is what I'm hearing. Did you set up the route or did you not? She says, I can tell you right now, I did not. I was there two weeks before he was assassinated and I was in Florida whenever he was assassinated and I had nothing to do with the route. Now, from her lips to my ears, now that's the best I can do, but I put her on the, you know, I put a right tour in front of everybody and I'm not afraid to ask anybody any question. I don't care who hears me and who don't. So, That should answer that question as to Chris Ann Hall setting up La Bois, then it comes about whenever he was killed by the great wonderful Gestapo here in the United States. Second of all, I said I would check into this militia of the several states course and I said I would reach out to them and if they did not respond back I said what? Do not have anything to do with them. Well guess what? I got an answer back. They did contact me. They're not afraid and they come right out and said our course is a two is a 12-week course and it is live lectures about the militia in the Constitution how to apply it and things of that nature, so Bex should put to rest any questions there as far as why they're charging as much as they do. That's beyond me. But they do have a group rate, which is far, far cheaper. So my recommendation is anybody who wants to take the course, get a group together and catch in. All of a sudden it comes down to about $20 a head per course. So... Alright guys, so it's so it's the block of time required. That's what they're doing It's the amount of time required to accomplish the task and the more people there the cheaper it will be to accomplish the mission Yeah, that's how it works. There we go. So there we go We have a response and the second say is you want to take the course take the course. I Didn't find anything wrong with them. I did talk to Richard Mack and And I said hey, let us and me you and Darley need to sit all down and have a chit chat He said I really like that idea. He says reach out to Dar You contact him to let him know that you talked to me and we will make this happen So I think probably in the near future here. There's gonna be a dinner arrangement between me Mr.. Mack and Mr.. Leaf and I don't know maybe some other people that want out 10 Now I think it'd be a great time Well, it's once it's up. It is. Go ahead Mark Very good. So again, there's the that's the follow-up and again this the meeting was this weekend They actually had to change the second location because of interference from outside But the good thing is is that they secured another site immediately. Everybody was on their toes and the meetings proceeded as expected so as was originally planned, except another location, another physical location for the speakers to work. So other stuff going on. Well, okay, a couple things. First of all, well, let's touch on something else. Over the last 24 hours, Fox News got into an interesting discussion, which became conversation this morning. And needless to say, actually, I've been trying to find the, I've only had so much time. to play on the computer even where I've had time. Tried to dig some of the stuff out and find the conversation point is sometimes difficult because it's purged from all of the control cycles like first book even with Google. So still trying to work on that but Apparently, the discussion has to do with the idea that, well, if people just keep doing what they're doing, we might end up in the, not a civil war, but a, quote unquote, revolution, right? I believe that was what was brought up this morning. That is what I'm hearing. They talked briefly about it on Mike Gallagher's show. The Sunwares last night, Fox News mentioned that We're on the brink of a revolution war in the United States. Now, Hannah's like they said. Now, if they mentioned revolutionary, you know, revolution in this country, in the United States, put it, that is a revolutionary word, he said, you know, a revolution, then this means that the media is aware of it and that something is getting ready to take place. Like Mark, I have not been able to find this piece, this blurb from Fox. I do not find that in any way abnormal because, you know, they blurb things out and all of a sudden they make sure it disappears as fast as it came out. But the point being that, you know, by the time they decide they're going to put four in troops and uniforms, And they're gonna use it. Yeah, they'll use them here. Obviously, we're can't run. I don't see the illegals overseas to fight wars They're gonna put them in uniforms to fight. Well, who do you think? Americans oh now on on that note real quick For those of you don't know it was a dick Mark on the go ahead. We got a caller. Who do we have? Rob East Coast on the same note Not too far before my father passed that cold film. He said the same thing. He said, I won't look to see it. You know, but there's going to be a war in this country. Absolutely. No, we're on the ship has already sunk. You know, the trains already left the station, as they say. It's not an if, it's just now a when. That's all there is to it. As far as I'm concerned, they are going to try and play every other card in the process to create confusion. But I personally believe that they have already made their choice. They, being the globalists, they have to implement the red terror in America against us, and that's what this is all about. So it's our turn to decide whether or not we're going to be free, and we're going to have to fight for it. That's all there is to it. Now, the most important thing is to be prepared to do so and not to get caught flat-footed. And their logic is that by creating all the pickle smoke and mirrors and confusion in Washington that they have, that supposedly you and I are going to be just so baffled by all their bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz And in reality, just the reverse is the case. Everybody I talk to, and I mean, I make a point of having conversations with total strangers all the time, are repeating the same thing. Well, we're gonna end up in a war here. And most people are not doing the full five years down the road. There isn't anybody I've run into who says, well, it'll be down the road. And that line is dead. That's something I have to emphasize, I can't emphasize enough. That old line, well, it won't be in my lifetime. Congratulations, like you said, we're all breathing here, kids. This is the conflict you've been waiting for, and they believe that nobody's paying attention because they've created so much confusion. The confusion is only in their camp, not in ours. As long as everybody stays focused, we have to kick ass, take names, beat the living snot out of them when they know it. But they're hoping that they've created all kinds of consternation and vamboozle that were also terrified and, oh my goodness, we'll just pee our pants and defecate our spine out. Now that's gonna be their job, not ours. And I believe that, again, let me add something to this, this very subject. Dick Durbin, that's the senator who stood on the floor. He's a demican from, you know, kosher run, Illinois. And he made the announcement that, well, you know, we can put the illegals in the uniform. We're gonna put them in the military. They're gonna take over the military. They may not speak English, but they'll follow the orders of the communists and the globalists. Now, of course, he didn't complete all of that, but here's the thing, Pat Ryan of New York, what a surprise, Chicago and New York, what a surprise. Pat Ryan has proposed, has already put forward the Courage to Serve Act. in which the illegal aliens will be brought in, put in uniform, and used against the American population. Because if you put them in uniform, and they're foreign, they're not loyal to us. And by the way, these are the illegal aliens who already came across the border without any authority. And the fact that you're rewarding the pricks by doing something like this means that they're going to ensure wink, wink, nod, nod that they're the right kind of commies for the right kind of red terror job. So again, that is the Courage to Serve Act. Pat Ryan is the one who introduced it. He is from New York. He is a bottom feeding filth bag demicon. Not that there are Republicans that are much better, not very many. But it is, of course, the communists hiring the communists. So it's in motion now. Well, I'm sure there's some people are gonna make some noise, but they're gonna do everything they can to ramrod this thing through because they hate you. Everybody listening, they hate you. Even the idiot stick fools that are in the secret police, they're just nothing but the temporary useful idiots, even those who think they have a deal, and they hate them too. The idiot stick bastards who are betraying us because, well, they think they're part of the Dog and Pony show. So pay attention and if you want to follow through on that again and see courage to serve act I told you so we told you so all of us told you so Okay, so and again, it's weapons Wednesday. So I would say organized armed equipment train as militia Establish a 510 program in your area of operations logistics the key to victory We are going to have to fight, so let's fight and win. That is the plan. We're not fighting and trying to find a place to die, except we'll make a place for the bad guys to die. We're going to send them to their early, well, not even premature, appropriately assigned graves. Or grave, but there will be multiple, so the S does need to be there. But it's time. That's all there is to it. It is time. And there's no wiggling out of it either. The other side can't let go, they just can't let go. So they have to act, this is what they're gonna do, all of you need to be ready for it. I think the first thing if you wanna do anything, pick up the phone and call the traders in Washington and ask if the trader that is the fake ass POS that's in your representative or senator, are you supporting this? Are you supporting the uniforming of foreign nationals to be used against the American population? We use them on people overseas. Yeah, right, and I'm a Chinese jet pilot named Lao Zi. We understand exactly why the whole routine is to make this a red army, a communist red army. That's what they're doing. Anybody who tries to argue the way, kick him in the head. Because these parasites that have been brought in, they're not your friend to begin with. The latest batch, everybody is of course going, well, these characters don't seem right. Well, yeah, they do if they're the kind of person that the ring knockers are looking for. They're not betraying America if they have no loyalty to America, right? Because they never were with you to begin with, nor will they ever be. They may be standing around you, but they're not going to be with you. Anyway, I'm sorry, Dave, anything else, please jump in there. No, I, that covers about everything I did for the day, so. Okay, very good. Now, I did want to touch on, it was a pile of questions when we were talking about the technology in the two-hour block. And number one, I got to repeat this again. I don't know, you're going to have to search the system. I had a flurry of, hey, where can I find those? Okay, goggles, sun, wind, and dust, one pair with lenses for laser and ballistic protection. Now, this is one each green for night and one each brown for day. And these are, yes, full, they're not a full spectrum. They cover at least three specific frequencies, so it's within a certain bandwidth of coverage. This is a military, these are regular military wind, dust goggles of the type 50 you served anywhere in the last 40 years. Black frame, standard model, the lenses are the difference. Now I'm gonna say this again, if you have these boxes on the shelf, go look at them and read them all the way through, because a lot of people just see that first line, oh goggles, dust, wind, and okay, whatever, because they're interested in what's in the box. Now, read what's on the outside again because you may have the laser protection lenses already, which by the way, yes, are also the ballistic lenses. These are the newer style that were, I believe they're a Lexan or one of the variant Lexanite. It was a product, it's like Kevlar, it's just Lexan, but whatever variant on it, whatever up and down the chip they made in terms of how they make plastic, it's called chip. Anyway, these may not be available. You may be able to find somebody that's got them. Hopefully they're not gonna charge unobtainium prices, which they might. I got these back when they first came out at Surplus because we had a contact, as I mentioned during the program. And I grabbed him when I saw them after I did. He sold out of everything he had every time he got it because people were scarfing him up as quickly as they saw them, okay? However, and this is most critical, since you probably can't find surplus, if you can, fantastic. But if you can't, I will remind you again, Granger, PPE, personal protective equipment, guys, Granger carries everything. including eye protection for laser industrial work and laser research. And because of this, they have to have radiological protection technology. They've got NBC, nuclear, biological, and chemical protection sets, kits, gas masks, whatever. For eye protection, you name it, Granger's got it. They don't advertise with us and they have a big ass Bible if you've ever seen it. You want a copy because it makes great toilet paper later on down the road during the war. But the big thing is that you're going to be paying retail price. This is not surplus. You're not going to get any major discount initially. However, there are things that they put on discounter sales. So you might be lucky and run into something. Now a lot of the laser tech you're going to run into there is actually going to probably be a broader spectrum because again, industrial research packages can be up and down the bandwidth. This is why the new ones out of the box that are available, obviously, are going to be as good as anything you could possibly hope to carry. But you will be paying retail commercial price. And when you take a look at that, you will see why it's the ouch meter in your wallet. You can feel your wallet tighten up and get thinner just by looking at the product. You'll understand why. And another thing, a lot of we were talking about with regard to night vision, you know, Don covered, he was our night vision, our night vision go-to person. And so we got a compression, which is cool of everything we talked about for the last 30 years with regard to how to select night vision. We just haven't done it to the nth degree, and we do need to reinforce that every once in a while. My favorite is the Blim dots because, again, I'll suffer with those to a degree only because remember back in the day with first generation being the only thing available? Yeah, they were pretty close anyway. He's kind of close, isn't he, sir? Yes, that's the problem with what we've got, so live with it. Another thing also, again, as was pointed out, go through all of the different resale points and look to see what's out there because you never know what you're going to run into. That's how I've been picking up Kevlar helmets. I've run into virtually dozens of Kevlar helmets locally here for nothing, or a little of nothing, and basically what they were typically purchased at is toys. Somebody bought them for their kids. And they turn around and they don't want them anymore. Now, mind you, it's because the regular Kevlar helmet is kind of heavy. And the eight-year-old running around with the multi-pound Kevlar helmet on his head, he doesn't get too excited about that after a while. It's work. So the neat thing is, is a lot of stuff like that pops into the system. Need to be watching for it, need to grab it, take advantage of it, and put it in our inventory as quickly as we can. So, that's another priority. Also, there was one other piece here that I didn't get to because we got on some good subjects during the two-hour block. And I would recommend also, that almost got me in the head. That's kind of fascinating. Good thing it wasn't sharp. I think. Maybe I'm bleeding and I just don't know because of shock. That's possible too. Anyway, In addition to that, oh guess right, Atlantic firearms, Atlantic firearms. You got a bunch of ammunition in. I've had a bunch of people asking about two calibers, which I don't know why I keep getting this. I do, you're asking because maybe I know. There is some 303 British ammo out there, but it's over at centerfiresystems.com. But there is some surplus right now that's supposed to be surefire, supposed to be reliable. It is surplus ammo. It's not cheap, but it's not stupid expensive. On the other hand, over at Atlantic Firearms, they have a bunch of police trade-in top guns. That's what I was talking about from Atlantic, but they also have a bunch of ammunition that came in. And they do have a good quantity of 545 by 39. I think the biggest batch that seems to be showing up everywhere is Tula, but it's military Tula. It's a apparently surplus, re-boxed or whatever. Maybe surplus overrun because they do the same thing there that we've been doing over here. And the, so for you guys that have AK-74s, if you're looking for more 545, and I've had a lot of requests on that, and emails on that too, by the way, it's over at Atlantic Firearms. Atlantic Firearms, Atlantic Firearms. And yes, they even do videos so they show you how many pallets. If you go over to YouTube, Atlantic does a whole bunch of videos on hey look what just came in well if you pay attention You can see all the rest of what just came in because it's right there in the warehouse where they're usually doing the videos So take a look at mine Go ahead. Let's keep in mind all the new communist Brown that they're carrying is that five four five by thirty nine it would It'd be best if everybody learned the capacities of that range accuracy And learn that that whole system because when they when they come running at you Chances are they're gonna have one of two guns. Do you we're gonna have that m16 or they're gonna have that ak-74 so Keep that in mind back to you mark pretty much everybody out there has the ak-74 But I guess what Mexico does If you haven't watched, I've mentioned this many times, just to give you a heads up about what's going to be coming north, and already is coming north because they're already here. If you look, pull up videos on Mexican military parades and Mexican military training exercises. Now they have purged a bunch of stuff about the training operations because some of it demonstrated, as I pointed out, the communist Chinese operating in Mexico. Now while they did pull those, they didn't take out all of the rest of their training videos, but the first thing you're going to notice are Hind D helicopters. You're also going to notice a lot of other Russian equipment. Now some of it's going to look alien, and it might be Russian, but it's not, it's French. However, in small arms, you'll notice that they're using the RPK, they're using the AK-74 and the AK-47, depending upon the unit. So you're going to see AK-74s in the mix right from the get-go. The Mexicans will be working with the illegals and with the U.S. government against the American population. It is obvious. They've already made their deal with the cartels. And it's going to bleed out into the light of day very, very quickly here. We're not going to get caught flat-footed. We already understand what the problem is. Go ahead. Hey, this is Carl Virginia. Is there anything that shoots a 545 by 39 other than the A74? Not really. Well, OK, wait a minute. Hold on here. What was the one? Well, yeah, there are some. OK, on that note, there are some AR-15 uppers available. But I don't know. I don't see anybody advertising them now. However, you might recall that back about three, four years ago before the Corona Beer Virus Cam, there were a number of AK-70, well, forgive me, 545 by 39 AR-15 uppers that were built. Now, Palmetto may still have some. I just haven't looked seriously at it because the reason that those came out, if you recall, is with the type seven round that was the dominant surplus early first generation AK-74 round that was out there. The guy that had the ammunition, the primary importer was out of North Chicago, and he had warehouses. He must have had, I don't know how many buildings he had full, but he is the person that made it possible for people to shoot cheap the 74. And for a short period of time, The AK-74 was a cheaper gun to shoot than anything. It was actually almost back at the old prices because he was selling the Mark 7 load at about 21 cents around when we first came in. When everything else was up around 30, 40 cents around. So now what's happened is the cheap ammo all got sold out. There's been the embargo. And the reason that those AR-15s came about was because of that earlier cheaper round. So there are some AR-15 uppers. And I've mentioned them before, but you'll notice I've taken them out of the mix more recently, not because they don't dislike the round, but because it's less available. It is one that we should have an AR-15 upper for. If you have, think about this. If you have a 7.62x39 upper and you're going to go to the larger capacity mags, the same large capacity extreme banana mags that you need for the AR in 7.62x39 are the same magazines you would use for the 5.45x39. It still has the same radical taper to the case. So your mags would be the same. It's just that you would be using obviously the different ammunition. So AR-15s, there was talk years ago about the Mini-14. They wanted to do it in 545 and it was during that window when the ammo was so cheap and everybody else was expensive. Not everything else. 556, you know, 762x39 was pricey. It was during that hiccup window, but I don't think anybody ever followed through on that one. So the 74 is the dominant. And some minority AR-15s in 545 by 39 AR-15 uppers. Well, again, it's a useful round. It's an excellent round. There's nothing wrong with its performance up and down the scale. It seems to work. Obviously, a good chunk of the planet's using it because not only do the Russians have it, but let's remember the first contract factory to do the AK-74 other than Russia was India. And India bought the rights to produce the AK-74 in India almost as quickly as the rifle was invented. So you've got two major producers out there and I guarantee they sold. Well, we know that the Russians have given or sold to many other people. So it's gonna be in our face. Mexico definitely has it. In fact, if you look at some of the training videos, they have the RPK-74. If you watch the videos, you'll see especially in the training exercises a couple of them where they're doing fire maneuver. They are using Russian APCs and French like the wheeled tanks. It's an armored reconnaissance vehicle, but it's got a tank gun, okay? And then what comes into play is you see the hind helicopters come in. And what is really obvious is one of the hines they've painted up with the Mexican Eagle. The whole aircraft is painted like a Mexican eagle in flight. So there's quite a few videos and if you just pull in, especially again, watch these videos on a big screen. Go to YouTube, watch them on a big screen. If you know weapons, you'll be able to pick every weapon out I just talked about. So, in fact, look at it this way. I mean, pretty well guaranteed that they've gotten 74s across the border with 7 million new legal alien combatants, don't you think? You probably do have 556, but... What do they have that they'd be handing out from their side? Well, they're not going to give if you have infiltration troops here They're gonna try to give them the same weapons that obviously we have here. So 5 5 6 guns are gonna be part, you know, obviously in the enemy's hands if they're Infiltration units, but the other half of this is Mexico Mexico is not the most you know Let's say to do state and they would be just easy to hand out other weapons like F and F als Hold on, caller, I heard you. FNFALs, they have a pile of K3s, and they have a bunch of AK-74s, but it's not necessarily where they're gonna go. So if you're gonna send throwaway troops or irregulars in, and you wanna also add a disclaimer, you give them the odd weapons so that they appear to be acquired from some other source. We used to do the same thing with all these countries we supported. We would give them nondescript third-party weapons so that we'd have deniability. And Mexico is screwing us left, right, up, and down with the Israeli mafia running them, and they are the ones pushing this whole thing, including the cartels. So anything else, Carl? I heard you for it. Go ahead, Carl. Finish up if you have anything else, please. Oh, that's the text mix. Text mix. I'm sorry. Oh, forgive me. Carl was before. Go ahead. I was just going to say I have seen at the gun shows and in some pawn shop stuff I have seen some of the 545 Uppers AR Uppers and one of the bad things about it is if you want the specific magazine for the 545x39 they're a little hard to find right now but if you can like you said if you can use the the 7.62x39 mags, that would be your save right there. Right, I think you should be able to. Yeah, go ahead. But the actual magazines they made for that upper are pretty slim right now and pretty hard to find. But I was going to ask you, since we're all going to be brothers in arms here pretty soon, I was wondering if you could do Dire Straits Brothers in Arms. Oh, we can do that. We got enough time. You know what, Edward, as a matter of fact, do the original album, in-house studio version of Dire Straits off of Brothers in Arms. Which, by the way, that's the album. Brothers in Arms, title track Brothers in Arms. Or Walk a Life. But in this case, it's Brothers in Arms. And yes, there are some reason I had to qualify that is there are some cover versions. Quite a few people have redone the song, but the original is what we want if we could. So Ed's digging that up right now. I got to do this since we're past the bottom of the hour. You're listening to us on WBCQ 6.160 regular shortwave. And we're also on libertytreeradio.4mg.com and libertytreeradio.org. Here we go. Dire Straits. Playlist off that album. Every song became a hit on that album or was in the top 10. That song, which is, again, a title track. On top of everything else was a no play for obvious reasons if you listen to it. And remember, no matter what, we're gonna fall. At some point or another, we're gonna pass. But before we do, let's make sure we stack their asses much, much deeper than anything that they originally thought that they were gonna have to deal with. And we're gonna win. We're not gonna lose. We're gonna win. But it's just a matter of, it's an issue of how long is it gonna take. So the better you get at doing it, the better off we'll be. Go ahead, Ed, jump in there. Yeah, that's a song they only like to pull out when they want you to you know that plastic patriotism You know, you'll hear it played a lot when they're pushing the plastic patriotism on mainstream radio stations. Yeah We're talking about covers and there's a cover that we used to play on the station all the time But I've lost my copy of it It was Metallica opening for somebody else and Metallica played Brothers in Arms Yes, it is round. I was about to pass you for that again. Yeah, I was about to find a copy of that again because that was so well done. And for everybody who doesn't know, yes, Metallica is a Patriot band. I mean, scared, they're kind of, you know, not here, but they are here, as you know. But again, undead, they'll never die. There are too many people. The work they did was fantastic. But if you get a chance, let's all hunt for it. I've seen. Here's the thing. Guess what? in that massive collection of music that I picked up here earlier in the year, well, the end of last year. No, no, beginning of this year, right? There's thousands, I've still been going through the discs, I've been cherry picking music left and right. But I think I have an entire block of dire straits. And what's interesting is this guy that collected this, that this collection came from, I don't know who had this one. I have a whole block of Dire Straits live, one of a kind, and Metallica live, one of a kind. Some of these concerts I've never heard of, but then again, I'm not tracking them day by day. So there's some really unique music going all the way back through live concerts from the late 60s and 70s that are off of reel to reel. I actually got some of the reel to reel tapes too. I don't have a machine set up to in the relay yet, but I will have it hooked up soon. I've got it downstairs. And that's where I think this gentleman mastered all of his CDs from. And that's a lot of work, as if anybody knows. That's a lot of work, but he did. And so in my collection, I might actually have that. Again, it's going to be, it'll take a little time, but I'm plugging away at it. I still have about four egg crate boxes full of dicks. I knew what I had basically because I was looking at it as I was packing the boxes. But I just have to go through them all now and we'll see what we can find. But if anybody else there who is listening, if you know where or you can dig it up, you might spot it maybe with the system through YouTube where maybe it's tucked in a corner and maybe we can't pull it out or maybe it's listed in an odd way. That happens all the time on YouTube, by the way. If you can, we'll shoot it out to Ed or bring it up on the air here, pass it on to us and we'll take care of it and bring it up. And then we'll make a hard copy. I'll make sure we disc, we'll put it on a disc. On old earth disc CD and make multiples that way we don't have a problem, you know, being able to, you know, reacquire it again. We'll have it tracked in a number of locations. Rule number one guys, backups to backups to backups. You know, we've talked about this forever and it's something you need to be thinking about now. Anything that you have in the way of family, treasures, albums, whatever, you need to start looking at right now, weatherizing them, packaging them so that they are secure from the environment, and then also I would firebox them. Put them in something that's going to be more secure. The world is changing and we have to plan ahead to get through the other side with whatever it is that we want to preserve. So you all need to be thinking ahead on this now. You need to be doing, acting on it now. One of the things that I collect are industrial weight, large format Ziploc bags and everything, everything that I have that is useful, electronics, printed medium, surplus material, medical gear, everything goes into Ziploc bags. And the reason is preservation. Maybe I won't be the one to use it, but one of you may be able to when the time comes, if I'm dead and gone, one way or another the equipment will still be able to be put to use. And again, we're thinking for the whole of the effort. This isn't a me, myself and I thing, although again, there's a lot of stuff that's personal. that I've done the same thing with because I want to see it get through the other end of this thing. So the same is true with music, personal mementos, I don't care what it is, and don't shun those things. See, that's one of the things that the bastards are trying to do is destroy our history, destroy our heritage, even destroy our family interests. Guys, destroy that. Beat the, you know, be ahead of the curve on this. Let's frag the son of a bitches across the board. And the way to do that is to make, again, do what needs to be done properly, take the time, take a little bit of time and deal with that particular problem and then get on to other things. Share time, multitask, we all have to do that. And also, let's see, what else do we have there? Oh, by the way, yes. On that note, I don't know what's weapons, Wednesday, communications, Tuesday was yesterday, I know, I know. I collect cassette players, CD, personal players, like Walkman type. I don't care what brand they are. I don't care who made them. Emerson is cheap, but they're out there and there's piles of them. I always get them for free or almost free. What I have are two totes, and these totes are almost full, so there's going to be new totes made. Any CD books. In fact, music obviously, but I try to do music mixes so that I can put a bunch of discs in there. And yeah, there's certain flavors and stuff, but most important is I have about four or five CD players in with a big Toughneck tote. It's about, what's one of the 24 inches, two feet, and it's full of books. so that you can sit down and put the earbuds on, power the thing up, power a player up and listen. The other thing I've got are cassettes. Cassettes you get for free. I've got cassette books by the hundreds. But the totes I have here, for instance, are a mix. And it's the same basic, it's books, it's technical, it's all kinds of good stuff. But I mean, interesting stuff, fiction, nonfiction, whatever, I don't care. It's for keeping your mind busy. If you can't read a book because you're hurt, injured, or you're down and you're tired, you can plug in a cassette, you can put the earbuds on or the headphones on and lay back and chill. We've got to be thinking ahead on this. And we need the technology in hand. Now, what do I do in that box? I put four or five. Every time I find another set of earbuds or something, they go into a Ziploc bag. They either go into my radio rigs if they're certain types or they go over into those totes for the books, for the radio, either the CD or the cassette. Yeah, by the way, they're radio programs. You know, radio classic comedy programs, things like that too. Headsets the same way. It's a funky looking pair of kitty headsets with dragons for the earmuffs, right? You know, dragon heads. Fantastic. You know what? You're not going to care. Does it make noise? Yes. Does it plug into the cassette player? Yes. Oh, it works. Those aren't tactical. They don't need to be. And that kind of stuff I can put in that direction and it serves a purpose. Hearts and minds, rest and recuperation, especially for our medical element because, guys, you're going to have to sit on your dead ass and wait to heal. I'm going to try to do everything I can to make sure that if you're a casualty, you will rest, recuperate, and then be fully recovered before you are put back into the field. Because there's no retirement from this war. We're fighting an American soil. There's no place to hide. There's no place to run to. This is it. We're here. Hey, Mark. What's the difference? What's the difference between us and them? Well, we live here. They don't. Go ahead. Jump in there. Hey, sorry, I know we're almost at the top. Did I hear Dave Stone? Yeah, Dave's here. Yeah, that's Dave's. Go ahead, Gary. Hey, Dave. It's Dave in the Thumb. Were you able to get ahold of Sheriff Darley about that militia class? Yes. Yeah, I did one at the very beginning of the hour. I got ahold of the front winners. You did. And it, yep, it is a live courses. And yeah, I mean if you go in at the group the amount drops severely for each person that goes in and By all means we want to take class takes class they seem on the up and up Okay, cuz I what I was told this is this guy Brett Winders has Classes all the time not militia, but this is the first time he's ever charged for a class and he has hundreds of people signing up and You know at 200 bucks a pop because everybody doesn't know that it's you know You can get 10 guys on them on that $200 fee But I I just thought it was kind of I guess it's quite and a quite in-depth course, so and it's about how old you know militia in the Constitution and they teach you you know all them facts about all that so I found them to be, you know, on the up and up. Okay. All right. That's all I needed. Yeah, there was lack of communication on how the cost was structured. It's going to cost the same whether there's one person there or 10 people there. Right? Right. See how that works? In other words, if I got to take and spend so many hours giving you a course, then it's going to cost this amount. So I can relate to that. Okay, not everybody is necessarily going to appreciate it, but again, I can understand something I've said before. When you give stuff away for free, people just don't seem to appreciate it. Know what I mean? I get that. Yeah, we've done this for a very long time. Now, it doesn't mean I still don't do a lot of stuff where everybody gets together and we don't charge anything constantly. But you know, it's like when we go to the training sites, what's the cost to get into any of the training sites? We don't charge you directly, so to speak, well we do, but it's two number 10 cans of food. That's the fee. Now nobody thinks twice about that because it's food, or you're just giving them food. It's like, well, it's going towards the cause, you see? So that's really, you know, the whole idea here is get everybody pumped up and motivated to start working as a group, as a team, and to support the core. And I gotta tell you, I don't think you can get a better deal than what you're offering, Mark, for two number 10 cans. Right. Well, remember, everybody else is providing the instruction, the courses or classes, depending on where you are, which facility it is and who the people are that are giving the training. And you are getting a potpourri of personnel. Because the other thing I can't emphasize enough is everybody needs A, to learn how to instruct and then B, participate in the process and be given the opportunity to instruct. Because we're supposed to be training the trainers. We have to force multiply. We are on the edge of a war. There is no doubt. I will not back down on this. I know we had a couple conversations this weekend where, well, you know, it can't be predicted. It's like, well, I understand what you're saying, but sorry, yes, it can be. 9-11 was easily predictable and we did. You asked Nancy, I tried to explain, I walked everybody through beforehand what was gonna happen with the 9-11 window. The only thing I did was what I've done or was taught to do. when we explain this to everybody. I also put it out on the air. You know, the thing is, it's with a window. But, what do we know historically? They love using unique anniversary dates. And so, didn't 9-11 seem to be kind of like obvious? It's 9-1-1! It's an emergency! It's a new Pearl Harbor. Well, it's a Pearl Harbor. I agree it was a Pearl Harbor. You wanna know why? Because Pearl Harbor was set up, dudes. Pearl Harbor was a complete lie. Sadly enough, and you know what? Most anybody who was around during that war, if you pin them down and start talking, they'll acknowledge what I just said. Now, most of them are gone now, but it's like my dad, my grandpa's all said the same thing. Everybody knew the war was coming. Everybody knew they were setting something up. And when Pearl Harbor took place, it wasn't a shock to a lot of people the way they claim. Maybe the people who weren't paying attention But for anybody who was paying attention, everybody knew the jig was up. And again, for the history that we know now that actually most everybody had been told by people who were in the know back in the day, everything about Pearl Harbor that you heard, well, there were big gaping holes in what you weren't told for a reason. Because if you have the rest of the information, you know the cement on the ground were betrayed and they were, and I've said this many times, sacrificed. This is why you guys don't join the military now because I don't want to see you Sacrificed and since these are queers and satanic pedos that are in charge. They hate you and guess what they will get you sacrificed They love sacrificing you you go. I am better of course Not satanic pedo queers. They hate you so getting you killed is a great pleasure to them And so this time around, well, let's just watch and see how this develops. If they wanna get into a war, don't worry, you'll get-
