He took off his three cornered hat, fought a revolution, put the Constitution shield from Tyranny. For future generations, this legacy we gave. In this the land 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, the home of the brave. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun.
permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying how the money's spent. Your children must attend a school that doesn't educate. And your Christian values can't be taught according to the state. You read about the current news in a regulated press. And you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS. Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold.
You trade your wealth for paper so your life can be controlled. You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame. You trade it in your name. You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seasonally 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?
For 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 in each God-given right, and pray to God to torture freedom burning bright. As Iowoki vanished in the midst from whence he came, his words were true. We are free, but we have ourselves to blame.
For even now his parents trampled 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? Home. Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. This is the...
First hour of the intelligence report time our corny One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters on and behind the lines in occupied territories south southeast west and North ladies and gentlemen, you're listening to us on Www Liberty Tree radio 4 mg.com Liberty Tree radio dot
And we're on satellite behind the bridge and behind the ship caught there. We have individuals listening right now in Anchorage. Actually, I think they're on land, probably more than they are on ship now. And a myriad of other locations all over the
a planet, virtually every body of water, both an analog and digital and both listening and listening and repeating or rebroadcasting locally. I want to say thank you, we appreciate that. We're in a myriad also, another myriad, a cardicopia, a plethora of other technologies both inside and outside these United States. Could be a collection, call it a collection too, couldn't you?
a virtual, an absolute complete collection virtually representing every technology that you can imagine we've used for the last seven years of communications and we are applying them all. Anyway, it is Wednesday. It's Weapons Wednesday. It is the middle of the week, well, the middle of the work week. It is the 3rd of April. It is the
16th year of open obvious in your face Fabian socialist and Soviet socialist occupation of America with a K 2024 old earth calendar. Give it an old shit Scott, Captain and 2024 battle for the Republic book one, the dance of swords.
Every time I mention that, the thing you need to study a little, it's interesting, the Japanese consider it the dance of swords too, of course, with the martial arts that they developed. Every nation state that has used blades has had their own martial regimen, best way to describe it. And again, it's not just boom toys.
Blades, even today, are part of the repertoire, part of the inventory and should be, what is the spirit of the bayonet, sir? Why to kill? So remember, the bayonet is part of your inventory. And if you have a weapon that can take a bayonet, yes, you should have a bayonet for it. Well, these are modern times. Yeah, and they get real barbaric and archaic on the battlefield real quick or especially in urban and close quarter warfare.
You know, sometimes just dropping dead weight and stabbing somebody with a good 8 or 10 inch blade, if you can, drive it to the hilt, awfully useful. So, and again, when you can't quite swing around with a muzzle, the sharp pointy ends on the very end or the cutting surface does a really good job of hack slash, you know, again panic.
create pain and then that allows you to break free of whatever contact might be made that's making it difficult. Yeah, you can either put a bullet in where you might just realize I can finish them with the bayonet. Long, short, indifferent, who cares? Same with the machete, might be the weapon that you need to choose because it's quiet.
And if you cleave somebody from crown down to his teeth into their chest cavity as you can, they're probably not gonna call out. And that's one of the things that they don't really show you grew up and just why? Well, individuals from those older battlefields called it a butcher shop. Hasn't changed much, still a butcher shop, just in long range, okay? So you're going into a conflict that is a mess.
But they always are and we're gonna have to man up and deal with this. We are going to war in 24 It's not it is it's just when stupid is gonna try and kick off and then we're gonna just have to hunt their ass down until they're all gone So a couple things here before we go any farther, you know, I got to mention this and forgive me I had his name written down. I don't have it right in front of me It's at the other workstation. I decided to switch over to this one and it's not reachable but
The last surviving crew member of the attack in Pearl Harbor on the battleship Arizona passed away here a couple days ago and missed it. Didn't see it right away, but somebody else sent me something in a scroll and so I pulled it up and opened it and yep. 102 years old. 102 years old. Last surviving member, enlisted man of course, younger man.
He was there at Pearl Harbor and again survived the attack on the Arizona and went on to fight. And of course, everybody was wounded that day. Most were one way or another. So like several people, I don't have three or four Purple Hearts. One's bad enough, but if it's not quite bad enough, they just push you to the rear, you wait till you heal up, and then you catch up with the troops. Catch up with your team rather than letting them put you where they think they want to.
So, and that happened a lot by the way. In fact, it's interesting, once you get on a ship at sea, how do they take you back? What are you doing here? Well, I've got a wall. I'm willing to go to fight. This is a fighting ship, right? Well, yeah, it is. So, I'm not sticking with the crew. You know, I got back on board or they jump, you know, they jump on ship.
Quite a few accounts of that that nobody talks about anymore. Used to be part of the fast ending history of World War II when it was more detailed. Now random details are popping up with the TikTok and other 30 second scrolls you see out there with little flash infos on occasion. But anyway, the last surviving member of the Arizona, I think I'd be curious. Arizona is kind of like the attack on Nagasaki and Hiroshima.
in that they kept track of every person that was there. Every person that was at Hiroshima or Nagasaki when the atom bomb went off has a number. And every baby, every baby born during that period, every adult, grandma, grandpa, didn't make any different soldier or civilian. Everybody got a number. That way they could keep track of their lab rats after they got a chance to test the bombs, and did what they did.
It's interesting Arizona crew like typically naval ships are locked in. You know by roster how many people were assigned, and how many people were in service. So there's a whole lot of other ships in Pearl Harbor. My curiosity is how many men are left from the attack on Pearl Harbor. This is the last man to die from the crew of the Arizona, which of course is still in service. If you know the history, it's never been retired per se. That's why there's not another ship named Arizona that I know of.
At least traditionally they kept this going and that the Arizona is internally at rest, but eternally in service. And so, this guy, I would be willing to bet, you never know, it could be either way, personal and personal choice there. But a lot of the guys that passed
in the last 20 years. We have quite a few from Michigan, by the way, that were Pearl Harbor. I've said this many times. If you get into service and you were from the Great Lakes area, your butt was number one if they could. They were going to put you in the Navy. Under the logic, I think that, well, you've been around water and you probably know how to swim at least.
But a lot of guys came from Michigan, Wisconsin, obviously Illinois because of Chicago that were in service in the Pacific even before the war started. A lot of those guys ended up in the Navy and preferred the Navy. Not because they lived on the lakes, but I mean they were around the Great Lakes. But you know what? Transportation, even what it is, not that many people run out to the Great Lakes all the time. And back then, say World War II and before World War II, guys didn't have the expressways.
You know how you measure distance from your town say to go into the coast of Michigan or anywhere? It was in how many flat tires you had to fix to go from A to B. My dad used to say to come to go from Ann Arbor, Michigan when he was a kid to go from Ann Arbor, Michigan to visit the relatives up in Port Huron. It was 26 tire changes.
You don't have 26 tires on the car. He said no, no what you had or two or three extra rims and a whole bunch of patch kits and And since he was the oldest boy a tire pump. Oh boy
Guess it was reinflating the tires. Grandpa, my dad's dad, was the one doing all the lug nut work and pulling the thing off. And in the process, you were patching two other tires always. There was another tire that was in the reserve ready to go, so they would park, stop, jack the vehicle up, get the tire off, put the other old tire on, take the other one off, put that off to the side.
have the other spare up and in the ready position at the back of the vehicle. And meanwhile, while they're going down the road, and I gotta remember, my grandpa had a whole lot of kids. They'd pack everybody up into the big old cruisers. I ain't talking 50s here, we're talking 30s. And they didn't have a new car, so it wasn't a new Buick or an Oldsmobile.
I can picture this. And again, Michigan roads weren't what you see today either. If you don't know anything about Michigan road nets in 1920 or 1920s or early 1930s, oh hell no. Talk about sinkholes and tank traps. So anyway, back in the day, everybody typically from this area ended up out in the Pacific. If they didn't before the war, during the war, a big chunk of the Marine Corps came from the Midwest around the Great Lakes.
Upper Peninsula, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Ohio, Indiana, and of course the rest of Michigan. And for that reason a whole lot of stuff came back from the war too. And it's in our hands now. It got passed down to the right people. Some really fascinating weapons as a matter of fact. And they ain't all toys. Or obsolete. So anyway, it is weapons Wednesday. And with the bad guys making some of the moves that they are, I cannot stress enough
that again, invest in ammunition real quick. We've got, let's see here, classic arms had a couple of really good 9 millimeter deals, so much so that I wouldn't be surprised it's after five o'clock. I wouldn't be surprised they sell out. There's a couple of 9 millimeter 1000 count, boxer prime brass case.
124 for grain for the one load and about 20 cents to 22 cents a round. Making it pretty reasonable. And again, they got a good quantity. Some of this stuff popped up the end of last week. Some of it just popped up yesterday. So if you get a chance, go over to classic firearms, look to see what they're offering. Again, also check usual suspects. I would check Center Fire Systems. I would check amoman.com.
Needless to say, you can do any of the other searches because when certain manufacturers come in, usually everybody has got it and some people might have a penny or two less per round and that does add up. And of course you have to take into consideration, do you get shipping or do you not get shipping? Is free shipping involved or not? That's the one thing about going and looking at stuff at Sportsman's Guide. Remember, they do have free shipping. Well, you have to look at the ammo, they did, but who knows? The economy being what it is.
So, if they have free shipping, but it kind of cost a penny more per round, yeah, you still save a chunk of change because that lead and brass is not lightweight. And the UPS guy adds another hemorrhoid accordingly, depending on how many orders you make, or a FedEx guy. So anyway, again, classicfirearms.com, classicfirearms.com, classicfirearms.com. Now, another thing, there's a new 50 on the horizon.
Although this is rather interesting that the person is not, I don't know how adept some of these people are at the history of firearms just in the last 30, 40 years. And that's modern times, by the way. In the 90s, we had two AK type 50 caliber BMG guns that came out. One of them was a was well the Motti Griffin or not Motti Griffin, but the Motti 50 caliber semi auto.
Everybody remembers it. When the 50 caliber shooters associated association was on the rise, a lot of other guns, the reason they had happened is because a lot of 50 caliber guns were coming into service. And this AK 50 is literally a stretch AK 50, an AK platform and 50 caliber, but it's like the guys reinventing the wheel. Of course, it is his own idea, but I know
that there were many of those motties made just like the other 50 caliber guns of the time that kind of were, you know, sitting there and quietly Absorbed by a lot of people the armillite 50 calibers semi-automatic side magazine fed am I jogging anybody's memory the armillite 50 BMG
Again, different idea. It looked to me basically that they just gave it that, you know, it had the appearance of the Johnson's Squad Automatic Rifle. Side magazine feed. I don't think the action was identical, but it was in that vein. And it was a pretty successful gun. Knob Creek is where it was first seen. Guys came down and sold it at Knob Creek for quite some time. Armalite did.
And it went on for a number of years and then it's kind of disappeared from the screen. Part of that is because Barrett of course dominated with price is what happened. But in the long run, if you've taken a look at what the Barrett's cost now, yeah, we're better off building our own.
And again, we have a lot of Barrett's I mean we do there many many many Barrett's in service with the militia and with many shooters around the country And those weapons people aren't coming off from they understand that well looks like it's time to really really really have one again However magazines now, this is something that we've had a couple different companies building 50 caliber mags I didn't pay attention to what the this new AK 50 mag system is going to be if he's going to commit to
using Barrett, which is nice cheap because everybody does and they're not proprietary anymore so you can actually take the design and use it. And again, sorry about that, a little bit of coffee there. The big thing here again is that if you're going to invest in half inch guns and these Mahdi 50s slash AK 50s are on the horizon again.
They're an interesting design. They may in the introductory price be a lot more reasonable than a Barrett. In fact, what I see prices almost anything would be more reasonable than a Barrett right now. Now there's people who walk out and slap the money down on a Barrett immediately nothing twice. We've got a bunch of people are here in Michigan just did that in the last three months or so. But they're young hard chargers. They have a good job. Typically they're single. They don't care about anything else other than, you know, getting things squared away for what's coming. So they're focused.
Not everybody can do that. So if a group does have somebody come in with that, here's the thing you need to remember. The team needs to support belt-fed weapons and heavy long-range rifles like the Barrett or any of the .50 caliber type guns. In an airborne or a support unit, an infantry unit, you support the heavy support or heavy suppression weapons or anti-material weapons.
by ensuring that every team member carries some ammunition for the weapon that eats the most ammo. Now what I mean by that is that some of you guys have these FN or the other belt fed 5.56 Minimi type guns out there. There's a ton of them by the way and traditionally if you watch, in fact let me put it this way, in a real conflict because you know that that squad gun is going to help you a lot.
Everybody carried ammo for the squad gun. What do you think all those men who were carrying M16s were carrying belts of 7.62x51 NATO for? Think that they were gonna magically touch magic, hit a magic wand and the cartridges go down to 5.56?
I've had two pos idiots and fools make stupid comments when I've been in a conversation in little chat rooms here and there. It's what's tiring listening to stupid people. I wouldn't carry ammo for anybody else. Well, then obviously you've never been in the military. Or you've never been in a military environment because depending on the type of formation, you'll carry spare mortar rounds. You're gonna carry ammunition for the squad gun. You're gonna carry anti-personnel devices.
Which you may or may not be setting up, but you're gonna pass off to somebody who will, example, Claymore's. Well no, we all were taught to use Claymore's. Yes, we were back in the day. Every one of us were. Laws, rockets. Well, I might use it. Then again, I might pass it off to a 100 killer team.
So everybody's carrying laws rockets. Why? Well, because again, it's kind of handy for everybody to have something you can punch a tank with. No, you're not going to blow it up. It's not going to be a dynamic Hollywood or video game production. It's going to be a real world where you're going to continue to tap at that piece of equipment and focus on hitting it in the right place where you will do damage and preferably disable the vehicle. You won't necessarily destroy the vehicle.
But disabling is a good thing and a cascading contribution by all of the fighters to do progressive damage to the enemy's equipment is what wins the battlefield. And by the way, I mentioned the M72. Guys, the government, I told you this years ago, a couple of years ago. Yeah, they're making the M72 law, totally new. No, not totally new at all. They are now making what they told you. Remember when they dropped the
M72 Law told you that all the new anti-tank light weapons were the latest thing and we'd never go back and it was obsolete. And it's poo-pooing, it would poo-poo on anything to try and get you into the next best, whatever slice of white bread, right? What's interesting is we've gone full circle. They realized, well, wait a minute, you can carry two laws rockets for the price of any of the present light anti-tank weapons that the infantry has available.
Which means that if you got a 10-man squad or you have a cheap poor country with not enough troops squad, you know eight men Then with an eight man squad you got well, that's right two times eight is 16. You have 16 shots It's kind of nice and it'll catch punch through some steel little punch through aluminum It'll punch through a lot of stuff. So it's worth having around But you may not be the one firing it
Pass it off to the Hunter Killer team. They already shot theirs with that last engagement. Can't pass them off. Well, I'm not gonna carry something for somebody else. Let me box you side to years. Where any of those stupid people you hear say stupid things like that. Again, you're a team. Some things because they just consume more, you will make space is what you do.
With the 50 caliber guns, cheapest, easiest, fastest way, put something together. You can use a MOLLE pouch of comparable sizes. There's dozens of different sizes out there and stuff that will fit, but standard M16 magazine pouch will carry 10 50 caliber rounds. If you interweave them inside, you put so many pointed up, so many pointed down, and you could even snap the lid shut, and it's perfect.
So the M16 mag pouch can be either carried, you know, again, back of your kit or if you want to attach it to the backpack, it depends on SOP for the unit. And every man is carrying an additional 10 rounds for the 50 caliber bolt guns or the 50 caliber magazine fed guns. So that's 100 additional rounds at no extreme burden to the whole team or the individual. The whole team contributes and takes the weight. Doesn't mean you carry more.
more ammo in for that weapon? Sure, not a problem. Now, with regard to the belt bed guns, the biggest thing is that today, since you're mostly into 5.56, now this depends on the unit. The dock unit down the road here, that's one of our overwatch units, would probably be first to fight. If something were to happen to us here, or somebody nearby that's an ally, the dock units would be first to fight.
better equipped, better armed, more money, and lots of people who are pissed. They're tired of what they're seeing and they're chomping at the bit. Well, they have a whole bunch of browning, 1919 A6s and A7s. And they're completely outfitted with spare, they have spare barrel systems, they have all the maintenance kits, they have all the other fun stuff that goes with a gun like that. They don't just have the gun, but no firing pins, extractors, ejectors, no spare barrels, whatever.
Instead, just a reverse. They're completely ready to go. So a unit like that, and I've had this conversation several times, you have to remember either A, you're going to vehicle mount some of that stuff, which I would, and I know they will, but a percentage is going to be on the team. And instead of a MAG 58 or a little soft 556, they're carrying browning light machine guns. Or else semi-automatic or automatic, because they have both.
And everybody on the team carries extra belts of ammunition. Everybody will. Plus they have they have Bandolier kits set up with two belts, which is a chunk of change, okay? In some of the heavy or molly pouches that they've selected, they've got one with two compartments. I think it's not a sustainment pouch, it's another one, but two belts fit perfectly. Now that's heavy.
But the idea is you're slipping this stuff in the gunner is gonna go through that ammunition at no time Now this isn't a pouch that you would carry as a daily patrol, but this is a supplement pouch in of itself or a a Support pouch for putting that gun in place in the weapon section or in that vehicle or whatever we're talking about But if you have to dismount you grab a pouch you grab whatever you can grab the gun and run
So, everybody in the team carries at least a belt, but preferably two belts. That's not light. Also, this is 30-06. We're not talking 308. We do have a bunch of 308-1916s. Or forgive me, 1919s. Those that are 308 go with a certain element. The 30-06 go in the other direction. And they typically have 8mm, 30-06, and 308 barrels and converging units for each gun.
So they can select and eat or consume what's available at the moment. If it's a 5.56 gun, you have all kinds of saw pouches out there. So since a lot of you guys are committed to Mali, like a lot of our people are even here, there are saw pouches you can buy that get those cans perfectly. They slide right in. Again, you're going to want to do it. There's two ways you can do this is SOP. Number one,
You can have it hooked up to your gear, kind of, it's not an encumbrance, but it's an additional amount of weight that not everyone wants to constantly carry, but you have to. You're better off taking the same pouch, which most of them have a little V-ray on each side, and they actually have a hanger strap. Not all of them, it depends on what year they were made. The Woodland Campbell models do have, well, not all of them, but most, 90%.
have the D-ring hangers. When you get to the ACU, which is what they flip to, or the Coyote, or whichever pick, whichever pattern, and don't forget there's also the ABU, Air Force Tiger, digital. Some do, some don't. So you may actually have to break out the sewing kit or the sewing system and attach.
a couple of key clips to the bag so that you can put a hanger strap on. What's that for? Well, you throw it over. It's the last thing you throw over your kit. You're going into the field. You drop a certain amount at a rally point for spares and the team still carries and moves forward with the rest of them. As the gunner needs it, you take it off your shoulder, over from over your neck, off your shoulder and throw it to the guy who needs it or pass it off to him as they can be resupplied.
But this means that you have at the very least again eight man squad eight additional eight additional boxes of ammunition for the saw in 556 If it's 10, it's 10 That's a lot more firepower and that's really what you need Don't expect just the assistant gunner and the gunner to be carrying the ammunition They need to keep you keep the enemy suppressed or to put fire on our targets of opportunity You need to pitch in and help them. Okay now another thing
I haven't talked about this again in a while, but we're getting close to whatever they're gonna pull. I mean, we're gonna, as soon as the eighth, it's the third kind of late in the game if it was, well, if they're gonna go crazy town, UFO invasion, everybody's gonna go crazy from the sunspots. The sun is blacked out, I've gone insane, it'll never come back. It'll be back in six minutes. No, I'm crazy, it's, whatever, okay, have to have a natural crisis for this.
Whatever national crisis they pull out of their ass, okay, they're gonna try to escalate it. So we have to hammer it down and bitch left her ass as quickly as it starts. That's as polite as I can be with this. If they decide to go that direction, well, we're not gonna be following along. And it's obvious that it's planned. Everybody's saying the same thing. Why would we make a total eclipse, which we've had many in our lifetime, all of a sudden a national crisis, national emergency?
Well, I agree. A good portion of the population are wussies and piss willies and cowards as deep as the day is long. But it makes no sense. Like I said, we were talking with Larry yesterday, I've been talking to a lot of people, I said, this would be a day of opportunity. Normally it'd be like, don't forget, if you've got a store and you're in that area, you want to buy four extra flats of shits and pop and extra beer and don't forget lots of bottled water.
Why? Well, because people will want to drink and they will never properly think ahead or they don't care. They figure they'll be able to get it locally. And by the way, wouldn't you want to do that and inspire and motivate and bring up the local merchants? Doesn't that make sense? Instead, it's all weezer, wissified, piss your pants, defecate your spine out your bong hole, you know, catastrophe. And the government is rubbing salt in the wound with the, we call it a computational guard there.
We just got to have the crisis, can't pass up the crisis. Hey, Mark. Go ahead, jump in there. Yeah, it starts like my question here. If they are assuming, presuming that millions of people are going to be on the roll through these states where Indiana, where I live, is one of them, where the governor declared state of emergency. Do you really see
millions of people driving halfway across the country or two states over or something to watch a six-minute freakin' eclipse? I think the shallow house might. I mean, like, well, it's younger people. It's, I can't remember. We're older. Younger people. There's a million. Millions. I mean, there's so many millions of people in our state, millions of people in New York. Where the hell are all these millions coming from? Where are we getting millions from? You can't drive as fast as the eclipse is going. You can't go from state to state.
Yeah, you can't share them. Exactly, and this is the problem. It's anything to create a crisis. You now have a piss willy bunch of ass hats in government that can't do anything without being a crisis. And there's money to be had, there's kits to be milked.
There are big government money tits I guarantee we should call this an emergency. Yes, sir Do we have all the bookkeeping for stealing all the money? Why yes, sir, and I even got spare shoe boxes for all the cash Oh, thank goodness, you know, and are they the bigger she us? I made sure I got larger shoe boxes They pretty well fit the hundred dollar bills perfectly, sir. All right, we're going to get me I got some cleaning with our Zach was saying real quick
It's not just of where are they coming from, but who can afford to do that? We're living in by genomics right now. Yeah, on top of everything else, it's like, well, it's like, and everybody is whining about that. I mean, finally, everybody's like, well, I've got- So that's the flight to 379 here yesterday, Mark. 379. Yeah. Now, that's another thing real quick. Has anybody noticed how the gas loop has been 30-cent jumps now, up and down?
We just had that happen here before Easter weekend. Oh, I'm sorry. Queer poofed a weekend because obviously we can't acknowledge Easter. Well, whatever it was this last weekend, we know it was Easter. But it's interesting that just before that gas jumped by 30 cents, and then they added in a nickel on top of that. Well, right in the middle of the weekend, Saturday afternoon, because of those wonderful electrical switches,
They dropped the cost of the fuel here by 26 cents. So they jumped it to 30, dropped it by 26, then dropped out a little bit again. But like you said, now all of a sudden, boom, right back up to where it was. So it did come down. But we've been close several times to, or a little under. We were $3 a gallon plus or minus a penny or two here for a few little dips.
But every time these last couple of jumps have been not just a few like a dime, they'll go a dime at a time, dime at a time, dime at a time. No, now all of a sudden it's 30, 35, 36 cent jumps. In fact, we kind of bit the bullet. Well, I should say we get the bullet past our year when we were traveling around the state here last week. And we're gonna be running around again, well, real quick. On the way up, when we were headed up, halfway up the state.
Gas was 30 cents less than it is here at this end of the state 36 cents less So we filled the tank up said alright, and I figured okay We're on the way back down that's still cheaper than where we are so after we run around all over where we're going county to county We're gonna come back down and pick up gas well the time it took to go up drop off batteries check other equipment Go grab some other stuff stop at one of the other you know camps
On the way back down, same station, electronic switches on those meters up there, of course, and it was now 36 cents more expensive and comparable to the price down here. So it took them a few hours more because, you know, more than a few maybe, I don't know when they hit the switch. But in the time it took on our way up in the morning, it jumped 36 cents on the way back down. Alright, I filled it up the rest of the way because we're moving a big truck and we got a lot of stuff that we're hauling, so.
And again, this is all over the place. So like you said, I have not checked the gas prices yesterday or today, but, well, wait a minute, did we yesterday? But I'd be willing to bet if you had that happen there, we're seeing this all over the country simultaneously. So we're also getting closer to the eight. So let's figure that their gas, their logic. Well, the millions of people who will be driving, we can charge them more so they can watch the eclipse. I mean, marketing.
scumbags are saying, oh you need to fill your tanks and get water. Well fill your tanks but we'll jack it 30 cents a gallon in the meantime so that you can pay that much over the next couple of days. Even if it's still though who knows whether it's the next couple of days. Have you seen gold and silver? Gold's almost at 2300 and silver's almost at 27. Last time look which is a couple hours ago. It's crazy. Well the thing about it is together.
This is this is the problem with the gas is my policy and they all of your policies should be the same Anybody listening out there is keep your fuel tanks topped off Where's the best place to put water in your body? You know keep or I should say water for your system. Keep it in your body Don't just carry it in your on your backpack The best place to have that water is in your system and pre-hydrate Especially in hot weather or even in cold weather when you're exerting yourself a lot You're you should be keeping your fuel tanks topped off
because you don't know what's going to happen. The problem is you have to select that window and kind of ride the roller coaster and so far. We've been kind of lucky about kind of calculating how this has been happening. So we haven't paid the highest price, typically been paying the lowest price, at least within that window of time. But that's going to change. And it looks to me like what they're doing is they're doing these larger hiccups, but they never recover and drop lower.
below and back to where they were now. Everybody notice this? We're starting to see the creep progressively. Oh look, well we saved 25 cents or 26 cents because the price came down. Yeah, but it went up by 36 cents. Oh look, the price went back up by 30, 36, 40 cents. Oh, those bastards. Oh look, it came down by 29 cents. Wait a minute, but it didn't go back down to where it was. So we're creeping up in like now towards $4 being the norm.
That's one of the things I see. Of course, again, at some point it's going to be unobtainium. And I cannot emphasize enough that if you can, you want to pick up some stable and have 8 percentage of your fuel on the shelf. What you can do, and still precautionary, is dump it into the tanks and refill it every couple of months, six months or so, five months, six months. With the way we're going right now, then it's not going to be that far out before you're going to definitely need the fuel you've got.
Here's the other thing is you're gonna have to start sipping. In other words, absolutely plan everything out and there won't be any traveling. If this thing kicks off, the only thing you'd be using the vehicles for is medical support, troop transport with very limited motion, and still you have to apply all the other camouflage, misdirection, and concealment policies that are necessary in a war zone.
than when necessary gas for the generators because somebody's got to have gas in some tank somewhere and if you run out of five and ten gallon, well we don't have too many ten gallons here, but you run out of two and five gallon containers for gasoline, what are you going to do? Well you can go to your neighbor and try and steal it from him, but not only is that immoral, but you're going to get yourself shot because it's wartime baby. Go over.
At the very least everybody who knows there's three there's three combatants on the battlefield there is you Your enemy and the scallywags and brigands who make up the third army I've tried to explain this for every year I've been on the air every time of any this subject has come up remember. There's three armies on the battlefield
And part of them aren't gonna be up front fighting against you. They'll be behind you, backstabbing you, or harming the people that you know. But don't worry, they'll be pretty well scallywags and brigands with everybody. So shooting the pirates is not a big deal. Everybody accepts that. Now, here's the other thing about the, again, you brought up the generators. Another thing about power. Guys, there are reasonably priced propane and gasoline generators out there right now.
multi-fuel, bi-fuel or tri-fuel. There's also tri-fuel out there. Apparently they will handle natural gas, propane and or gasoline. There are others, if you want to spend more money, that are basically like the old military M35 multi-fuel engine.
that are not that big, they're not truck-sized motors, but they are multi-fuel motors that literally can be calibrated, if you know what you're doing, to whatever combustibles you have available. So you need to be shopping around for a tool of that type. The average price is about the $400 market. I know not everybody can make that, but all the other things we say going by, the first thing you're going to say is, well, Mark, I don't have $400. Well, I understand. This is where you have to pick and choose.
I would recommend if you're a militia unit that you buy one as a unit. You're going to end up falling back on certain locations. And what location would I actually, if I had one generator, what location would I want power for above anything else? My medical support unit.
Whatever location is gonna be used to try and keep your people alive and to support your families and whatever is the location where first you need power. Now your combatants, somebody say, well, your fighting force needs it. Well, one of the things to remember, and I'll point this out again, is that the enemy's counting on you trying to mimic their electronic footprint out there in the field, which you absolutely did not want to do. So in a combat environment,
Everything electronic gets shut down. Most anything and everything that presently is being used that's being strapped to your weapons is being shut off and powered down. And we're probably gonna end up having to shield it. I'm fascinated by how much of an electrical buzz on a frequency counter, many of these present daylight conventional rifle sites give off.
Now, the red dot, green dot, blue dot, it depends on what you're spending money on. Because some are more powerful, more efficient. Some have additional resources on board like GPS, which is absolutely not needed. It's like having GPS on your thermal. You don't need it, but I guess if government wants to track it, you do.
So again, we should put it on our guns too. And every round of ammo should have a little chip in it. They're pushing through it. They're trying to do the electronic guns right now. And so again, this is why it's more critical than ever to understand about why we need to a, stockpile, b, have local production being our first priority. There are a couple of great videos by the gentlemen that have been doing videos on tactical, militia tactical operations.
that have taken up subjects that we've talked about here, only because it's common sense that everybody would. And they have, on their own volition, come up with some excellent tutorials, for instance, logistics in all of the different elements. And ammunition, or the availability of ammunition, the ability to continue to produce ammunition, is the highest priority, and it has to be conventional tech.
We don't want any, in fact, the mechanical world is what's going to win the next war, despite what everybody says.
On that note, it is Weapons Wednesday. So let me remind you, for instance, we have a table. And on the table, we have our air defense for our local squad unit when it does go in the field. By God, I already told you, wow, you're carrying an extra bag of ammo for the squad machine gun, the fire team machine gun, the belt bed. There's about, that could be anywhere from 12 to 20 pounds.
I want you to think about that. If you've got a full can of 7.62x51 NATO Belted, or if you have a full can of 30.06 M2 ball with all the other peppers in there, tracer, whatever, it doesn't make any difference, AP. Whatever you got, that's about 20 to 22 pounds, those are. So you're looking at that much extra weight. You're still carrying all your combat weight, you gotta carry your mags, gotta carry your gas masks, gotta carry your water, gotta carry all the other goodies.
On top of that though, you're still carrying that support equipment. And then on top of everything else, because we do understand how three-dimensional, and we've talked about this for as long as we've been on the air about the three-dimensional battlefield, the dronatoids are not going to be that, oh my God, I gotta chew my nails off kind of BS that they promoted the way of propaganda. Why? Well, virtually everything that we've talked about for
As long as I've been out in the air, things that the militia can build are all tools that for the RC toy or even the mid-range or mid-weight drone type technology can defeat. Right off the bat, I will say this again, Weapons Wednesday. Well, Murky just gave us a book of other things like that $400 generator. Yes, I know.
But every one of you needs a 12 gauge shotgun that has the ability to change out barrels and since bird barrels are cheaper, a bird barrel is really what you need right now. Not a stumpy, it's like in Red Dawn, okay? In Red Dawn, remember I always point this out. They have the ambush in Red Dawn, right? In the very first beginning of the movie there where they have the poor bastards that go up there to sightsee.
And boom, you see the guy running through the woods and he turns around, he's running, and he's got this perfect printout with blood on the back of his coat, off to the side, another one that hit him in the shoulder. And they're perfect printouts like that shot stayed right where I wanted it.
And after he kept those rounds on the target with that longer barrel, which means he got more energy, the pattern was tight because of the cup and everything, you see him that night. What do you see the kid doing that night with his shotgun? By the campfire. Anybody remember? I always use movies as references. Why is he cutting the barrel off? What? Why is he shortening a shotgun? In the field with the weapon that he has, considering they don't have as many weapons as they would like,
The shotgun that he was using did exactly what it was supposed to do. It kept all the rounds printed, most all the pellets stayed right on that target. Go look at the movie, watch it again. So what would the logic be that night to go, I'm going to shorten my shotgun barrel? Shortening the barrel is not improving the energy at the muzzle.
Shortening the barrel is gonna spread out the pattern which I really don't need because I had a pretty good print I could see it by looking at the corpse now consider this that with what we're doing now Full circle most Americans have bird guns sitting in the closet That is one of the first air defense weapons that has to be deployed in mass
And since most of them are actually lightweight weapons because people don't like to carry a heavier shotgun, most of the newer weapons are stamped or they're aluminum receivers. Even the semi-auto guns are very comfortable to carry, okay, very lightweight to carry. And it's something you're gonna strap on and drag at least a handful of you're gonna drag with you every time you go into the field, you better.
Since everybody agrees that the little tiny dronatoids are the are the the hemorrhoid of the battlefield, you know Causing pain constantly no matter how you move right? Well then boom in fact, here's how it works boom boom boom What was that? Well three guys that way one way or another somebody got that one down boom. It's off
By the way, you're not gonna muzzle drag a gun like that. Why? Because you need it in preparatory position, so you're gonna be carrying the weapon for your battery. You're gonna carry it in port position just like you would if you're bird shooting. If you're out there bird hunting, you put your muzzle down on the ground, hell no. I don't wanna scoop up any mud and end up with a plug.
logic, but here again, I need the same kind of snap shooting because I got to engage the target at a greater range. Well, that's not going to stop everything. The naysayer is going to say that right away. And again, that's an ass hat who's saying, oh, go, go to school, boo boo boo. That's right. That's why we need microwave. A shoulder fired microwave system now has to be incorporated. All of your kitchens have a microwave weapon system waiting for you to build.
That simple microwave that's in your kitchen. This is why I've told everybody guy and now now considering what they're telling you is an absolute must on the battlefield Building a microwave a shoulder fired microwave projector. It's not gonna do anything that you're gonna see it's gonna be very dull It doesn't have a recoil all you do is point it And for as long as your battery pack your capacitor is gonna run B it's gonna fire now when it fires, it's gonna send out a concentrated microwave beam and
It's gonna hit the target, there's no protection on any of these pieces of equipment and they're all microchip technology which means they fry faster. In addition to that for your defense, you're gonna have to have people now just like you would in, wait a minute, Red Dog had that thing where they were searching, remember the paratroops, the special forces, the special nows were chasing the boys and beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep
But a frequency counter, good ones, are readily available over the counter and you can register the frequencies for all of the common tech that's out there.
In fact, you can prioritize and program many of your frequency counters so you can focus on, for instance, VHF, UHF transmissions in this range because that's military aircraft, because that's military. Oh, wait a minute, endless program. Here we go. Let's go a little farther up to scale. There we go. We got all of the frequencies now programmed for scan and for alarm for all of the dronatoids.
Because if the dronatoid has got a camera on it, they're boasting this, look they got a camera and they're looking down at the guys and they're doing this and they're chasing them around that and they're, oh well that means that they're sending a picture back, right? Right, so they're sending and receiving, which means if they're sending...
I know we've got you back there, but we're also right at the top of the hour. We lost you at you're using Red Don and the frequency counters as an analogy for a reason to get real frequency counters and be able to track. Right, exactly. So for everybody out there again, we'll cover this again in the next hour because this seems to be the right subject. And the last thing, our frequency disruptor or again, dirty signal generators.
These are when you hear about jamming technology in all the old movies or any new movies for that matter In the older days they made a whole family of signal generators with no filter system and they literally go up and down the buzz like disrupt communications all up and down radio spectrum Only the you hit the switch and they go off but nothing electronic works within that area as far as signal communication problem They also become an immediate target
For counter electronic counter battery fires. Always assume that. So you never put them where you are, you put them where they'll be useful to your front against the enemy as they're moving through an area. That way when they're taken out, they're always made to be minimal cost, maximum result. Anyway, let's go to break guns. What? Republic? His clothes were torn and dirty as he stood there by my bed. He took off his three cornered hat, speaking low to me.
We fought a revolution to secure our liberty. We wrote the Constitution as a shield from tyranny. For future generations, this legacy we gave. In this the land of the 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 sh- 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 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 freedom for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you'll fight to save? Or do you wish your children?
to live in fear and be a slave. O sons of the Republic, arise, take a stand, defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the land, preserve our great Republic and each God given right, and pray to God, keep the torch of freedom burning bright. As Iowoki vanished in the mist for whence he came, his words were true, we are not free, but we have ourselves to blame.
For even now as tyrants trampled each God given right we only watch him tremble too afraid to stand and fight If he stood by your bedside 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? Remember your training and you will come back alive good afternoon ladies and gentlemen, this is the
Second hour of the intelligence report time, our currently I'm just one day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters, both on and behind the lines in occupied territories, east, south, northwest, and north.
Ladies and gentlemen, you're listening to us on www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com, LibertyTreeRadio.org. And we're on satellite. We want to say hi to all our merchant radio operators out there. Some stuck behind a bridge and a boat and are in the anchorage there. They've also sent us pictures. Which is rather interesting. There's some of the stuff going on in the docks, not what's going on in the bridges. It's what's going on in the docks. It's really interesting.
So heads up there, we're a myriad of other communications technologies both inside and outside these United States. And it is, well, it's weapons Wednesday. It is the 3rd of April. It is the 16th year of open obvious and pissing in your face, Fabian socialist at Soviet socialist occupation of America with a K. 2024 older calendar, I'm giving her all she's got, Captain.
and 2024 Battle for the Republic, book two, the Winter War. And we got Dave with us, Dave Stone. So Dave, what's jumping off the wall there, please, sir. Well, a couple of things here. First off, I wanted to call in and I want to talk about US Army and Air Force call on retirees to return to active duty. Now, this wouldn't be much of a story really, if you really didn't get into the details of it all.
But according to the voluntary retired return to active duty program, they're looking to fill a thousand positions in the military. Of course they're looking for pilots and combat system officers and stuff like the air traffic controllers, whatever, have you?
What's interesting is they don't want nobody in the medical field and I kind of thought that was strikey But you come down here as you're reading through this through the story here And there's a little line here and this out of stand right up to everybody shows you exactly where they're headed with their we're gonna call everybody back program because
I've talked to some veterans and they were all they can't do that and they're not gonna do that It's against law for them to do that and you know, I've heard a lot of excuses and I'm gonna point this one little line I'm gonna point this one little line out here. It says there is no age limitation Although personal old personnel older than 70 are not normally recalled not normally
That means you boys that served in Korea? Well, you're on the chopping block this time around for these boys. If you're a white, Christian male, they hate you and they want to kill you. And they're going to find a way to do it. Overseas, not here. They don't want us here because they don't want us here when the pedos and the queers make their move.
So, what's fascinating about this, first of all, on that note, one of the guys listening, and I'm not laughing at you, I'm laughing with you. He's not laughing. 11 years retired from the Marine Corps. And it's like all of a sudden, out of the blue, congratulations. You're that white, tasty-faced, heterosexual Christian. You're our man. But wait, you hated all of us. You told us you didn't want us around. We're evil, we're bad.
But we know how to do the job Well, you know in this in this article they talk about well, the problem is that the white recruits are down 50% and they need to take care of it. So yeah, I mean You got me confused Dave wait a minute. Yeah, I'm sure they didn't say that I'm sure they did. I mean, wait a minute. I
Why would they care? I thought we had that, wait a minute. Now, we had the dynamic quadriplegic homosexual Eskimo with pedophilic tendencies, who I saw in the recruiting ad, rolled his wheelchair off the back of a C-130, was tumbling in the air, pulled out his weapon, shot two or three magazines while falling from a medium drop.
killing hundreds on the ground of the aggressors and maybe some of his fellow paratroopers. And then of course the quad parachute has to open up, it's a wheelchair guys, we gotta make sure we stabilize it. And then as he hit the ground impacting at six miles an hour and left three or four inch ruts and guy kinda got stuck for a minute. He started moving that wheelchair while looking around for an eight year old that he could pedophile in the process because his loins were lusting. He got his dander up now.
But continue with the fight, led the troops, led the team to victory on the battlefield in mud, in Ukraine, up to his eyeballs. I saw it, I know it's true, it was CG, but it was great, it was phenomenal to watch. I'm excited, don't you wanna be there? I know you do, come on guys. Anybody? I'll tell you what, fire that like I said, yeah, first of all, lose your phone.
Second of all, you just moved, right guys? I don't know. I heard that my friend just moved. I don't know where he is. What do you mean? I thought you said you talked to him yesterday. No, I don't think so. I might have. But last I heard he had a horrible death in the family, somewhere in Appalachia. Phone service was horrible at best, by what I understand. There's holes all through the ridge down there.
No, I don't know where he is. If you're looking for him, good luck. Damn, Mark. Mark, I'm blind. Will you drive me to the recruiter? I'm ready to sign up. Hey, dude, you don't have to drive him. And they were taking him. There's a van headed your way right now.
The guy at the moment you said that, the tracking system for the cell phones went off and he just crossed here and onto your location. And right now there's a Chevy van ready to pull up right to your front doorstep. Two Marines are going to jump out, knock on the door as you start to say hi. They're going to grab you by the scruff of the neck and they're going to grab you by the ass and your butt will be in the back of that Chevy van so quick it will make your head sweat.
And while you're going down the road, the third guy who has a little office desk in there and is kind of bouncing around and every time he jiggles his green hiccups that he's looking at, and they will grab your hand and with a Crayola, they will make a mark on that paper and on the electronic pad and congratulations, Alice's Restaurant. You're our man. Yep. Yep. That sounds exciting. But they hate you. I hate you. I love them. It's a bit.
It's for the love of country. But you gotta come die for him. The Jewish mafia hates you, but they want you to come die for them. I'm telling you. And that's exactly what this BS is. I listened to Dave. Didn't you listen to everything they've said for how many, well, last several years now? Well, his dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead dead
They haven't been saying I love you, I need you to come fight for us and die for us because you know the country needs you. I don't think I heard those words all the time. I think I heard them say I hate you. You're scum suckers. I'm gonna replace you with somebody of color because we don't need your kind on this planet. White, Christian or male. Period. I put all three categories.
Yeah, and I you know what you want to fight will say this again You want to fight for this country you stay right where you are because we're gonna be killing that you will be killing the Communists here real soon Because no I do not go over there. It's a waste of your life I know that some people are you know, this is the challenge because if you're like, well, you know, they kind of know where I am not really
If you were smart, you would be losing yourself right now very quietly. Things get paired off. I would clean out the bank account. I would, not just me, I mean just, you never know. After all, here's the other thing that gets me about this. This is really fascinating.
See, they know that all the pedos, the queers, all of the feminists, lesbians, whatevers that they put in, all the short-haired, fruit loop, nutcase, dirtbags, whatever kind, don't have any time in grade. Okay, guys, you understand that? Everything in the military is a constant power pyramid. Like when you graduate, say, from BCT, even, let's say you graduate from basic, you go to your AIT, you're now on the clock.
promotion. And as you go up the ranks, there's usually again, and even in wartime situation, there can be up to four people buying for the next open space in the next tier of rank. This is especially tough in peacetime though with officers. And this is another way that they've called the ranks is by brushing over individuals who are pro patriot or whatever. So you ended up leaving at a lower grade but
There's two reasons you did it. You were told that, well, you're not good enough. They don't like you. You're too hetero. You're too patriot. You're too American. Oh, you're Christian. Oh, you're dead. You're done. And so these guys who, well, they made it to the 20 and out. And sometimes it's the 22 mark or the 23 mark. It depends on the contracts you signed over your career time. And what happens is you were on the edge of possibly getting another jumping grade.
You could be a month away, two months away with the math formula that the government has worked out. You don't control any of that. Your time overseas and deployments, you're, again, don't forget you also got some great things with payroll if you have family. Okay, the more kids you have, the more money you do make, okay? So you got all these things that are part of the math formula. But what they're saying, and Dave very brought this up, they've already stipulated that you may be mobilized for at least two years if you're not dead before then.
But you're not gonna be able to get a jump in pay grade or a jump in rank. That's right, they said no promotion. So let's figure this out. I got a guy who's a major. He was a breath away from being a lieutenant colonel. I've done this, I've done paperwork for every rank you can imagine for their next review because you also have to do a review of their security clearance and you have to provide, God, there's somebody.
you just reinitiate the security clearance, okay? So what happens is you're ready for that jump and they locked you out. They said, well, you're probably not, yeah, you could if there was a space, but we decided you really in this go around, we passed you and we're gonna pass you again. Well,
Now, if you were to come back in and they didn't put a lock on that, in many cases, and I have seen this thousands, not hundreds, thousands of times, where the guy would come back in and in three weeks, three months, not weeks, three months to six months, they will jump a gradient pay and a rank right off the bat. Why? Because the math formula dictates it.
So what they're telling you, what these B-Witches are telling you, oh, you're retired? Like the one gentleman, Marina, was just talking to him. Well, he's not a gentleman, he's a fighter. No, he's a brawler. Anyway, yeah, you've been retired for 11 years? Well, yeah, you could probably become a master sergeant. You could become, well, fill in the blank, but we're not gonna do that. So the purple hair queers a $3 bill B-Witch that hates you.
isn't gonna be passed up, will be in charge. The twit that doesn't have a clue, that shouldn't be anywhere near rank or in the uniform, is the B-Witch, the pedo, the queer, and the sociopath, okay, take your pick of which flavor, are all gonna be there. And they're gonna make sure that they're in charge, cuz that way they can push your sorry ass out in front where they can get you killed.
Hey Mark, to whatever degree they can, they will. I'm telling you that. And they don't want you, because all of a sudden, with three months in, they have to cycle a paper and go, oh shit. The points dictate this. Hold on, we got to do a review. Oh wait, okay, I'll be back and scream this way. No, I can't do that either.
And if you're paying attention, if you're in the military and you retired, you already know how this system works. And you know that if you come back in, that you'll keep track of the numbers cuz you want more money. If you're gonna risk your life, getting more money for risking your life is kinda good. So anybody who's been in service is paying attention to this if they've survived this long, that they've been already into retirement.
And they all realized, son of a bitch, if I could have just had that jump in pay, I'd be getting 300 or 400 or even even a thousand dollars more a month for my retirement. But those bastards wouldn't let me have it. But because of that, they also know if they were to come back in, hey, dudes, you're short manpower. I've got the points. Look at my points. I want to review.
Actually, they're dictated, they have to do it. They'd have to, if management is doing a shot, but I'll guarantee the situation is so bad with all the petals, queers, and worthless turds that they've got in there that aren't doing their job, then it's just like it was after Vietnam. I guarantee it's the same scenario, and now they're having to put a gun to people's head to drag their ass back in.
And they're not bringing back a thousand people. I have to lie. I'll guarantee it's a much, much bigger number. They're lying their ass off, guys. There isn't a number they're generating anymore that's true. Like everything else, they got governments that collect their numbers, but they're liars in every stretch, every vein, every angle that you can imagine. So I don't have any confidence in their quotes. I think it's much higher and they're screwing a whole lot of people. Go ahead, jump in there. Well, let's put it this way.
Right in this article they're talking that they're down, the Army is down 25% of 477,000. So take 25% of 477,000. That's your numbers. Well, and the Coast Guard has got ships parked right now. They've got cutters parked. In fact, I think the battery is what, there's six or seven of their coastal patrol ships. They're not like boats.
They're, I think, corvettes or cutters, but they're larger cutters that are parked for lack of manpower. Why? Well, nobody wants to join because nobody wants to put up with the BS because we've all had experience. Everybody knows how you're going to get screwed. I'll tell you what, hold on, Phyllis, before either was another voice I heard. Whoever that was, jump in there. Give a chance to speak up before Phyllis can. Okay, go ahead, Phyllis, jump in there, please. All right, now let's see here.
I'm going to take you back for a little bit. During the Civil War, the North was having a problem because they weren't getting enough people to fight. So when they did the Berlin, they brought all these guys in and they decided that they were going to do a lottery. If you picked on that lottery, then you wound up being in the Northern Army. They brought in how many gazillion people from all over the world and they're sitting there and apparently some of these guys are in camps.
They're in training camps or something some of the younger guys apparently I've read something about that or they're just running around the United States. There's your candidates for your military. You got all these people so there is really no reason except that you have to teach them English and make sure that they have a gun and that should be sufficient don't you think to really put them out there? They want to teach land on that. Yeah, the thing is go ahead, go ahead Dave, come over there.
But they plan on that, but they plan on using them here against us. They already have that program in its order running. If they're in the military, then they really, if they recruit them into the military, then they can be deployed overseas to fight over there. And that to me would be a solution to their problem. Yeah, but no, it's not. Because the mission is to get us killed.
That's why they have to, again, they would be hoping that they'd have enough. They'd still be the Interior Police, Homeland Security, and all the other secret police units that are being gonna be fleshed out with the illegals, especially the Chinese that are brought in, are for Interior Police operations against the American population, period. They're not gonna route them sideways, because there's too many loose wires involved with doing that, not the least of which is something you just brought up.
is we now have the Babel army. It's not like, like you said, when they brought the Irish in, they might have a bit of an accent and certainly they could speak the language of Erie. But they at least mostly all knew how to speak English because they've been occupied too long by the British Empire. And they might be Protestant rather than Catholic. They could be green rather than orange or orange rather than green.
So they at least could communicate. But now we're talking land of Babel. And this is a big problem like you said, what they're gonna send them out in the field, then you better understand Katanganese. Can you speak Katanganese? And whoa, wait a minute, we're not working. We're gonna also have to know Mandarin Chinese. And on top of that, we're going to have to know, wait a minute, South American, the Hispanics, all bloody hell, this is gonna be a cluster hook.
You know what they do, you keep them where the secret police can manage them in lumps. And then they'll use them because they don't need to communicate with the English American people they're gonna be killing. Instead, they need all of us as long as we're as long as we can. Mortis hasn't set in outside of the country to get killed off because that's the other part of the culling.
And so instead, they use all of these bastards they brought in, which is why, like I said, oh, shoot, they're son of a bitch before. I'm not leaving. I'm not going to serve with the crown, because the crown's trying to screw us to go kill Christians overseas while we need to be focusing on the heathen that they brought in here. The formula's going to stay as it is. They're still trying to figure out how to slide even more in.
But the allocation of the force, the application of Americans to kill off the Americans under the globalist agenda, that's why they're bringing these people in now. No, they can't. Normally there would have been effective continuity of knowledge, working knowledge and resource, but they did what they wanted. For all practical purposes, I think that they would have kicked this off a lot sooner. Hell, remember, they would have kicked it off with Obama. They were in motion.
And in reality, let's do a math formula here. Consider what Obama set up for eight years. If Hillary the Hutt had hit the switch on the voter fraud machine four hours earlier, if the powers that be that manage that election, then Donald Trump would never have been a name on anybody's lips. And we would already be how many years into the next phase of the attack on the American people.
The only thing that, yeah, the only thing that hockey pucked this up was the little power faction sliding, you know, for whatever reason, you know, act to God, hurry, wanna look at it. Sliding the Trumpite in and all of a sudden a different math formula was applied for a very short period of time, only four years, but it significantly altered the battlefield. So now, we're where we are where they have to play, it's not playing by ear, but
They would have called, they called our people out anyway. Think about it, when Barry Sartoro realized he wasn't, you know, that he or he was gonna have to trade out, his mission, remember in the last year, was to eradicate as many patriotic American officers that were known as possible, and he did that, and everybody started to scream about it. Remember all the pictures of all the, they had one guy did a whole portfolio of all of the men that before Obama left, he had fired?
He didn't fire them on the way in. He fired them as the next shot in the process before Hillary was supposed to take over a tag team to cut the country the rest of the way. Because he'd already been working on the border being open. The next step would have been Hillary coming in and doing what Biden did in the last three years. So this would have been seven years ago.
In that way, again, like I said by all this, they're behind schedule. They're not on schedule. They had to keep shifting the schedule. And now the problem that they've got is more people are seeing what's going on. And that's why so many, well, also they plugged in all of the bullshit that we knew they would have done if Hillary would come in right away. Hate all the white people, kill the Christians, try to do everything they can to destroy the economy, to strip out the spendable income of the population.
The purpose behind busting the economy is because if you don't have additional spendable income if you don't prioritize You're shoveling money to the insurance companies. You're shoveling money to pay for a mortgage It's useless because next year they're gonna take the property from you and instead you say well piss on it Let's blow up the credit cards Mmm, don't pay up pay on the house buy more weapons buy more ammo buy another place and slide sideways out of the mortgage but own a piece of property
See, that's what they were terrified of and some people have done that. How many people do you think have actually disappeared off the scopes? I mean, the only thing that's keeping them in the radar now is a stupid cell phone. How many people think about how many people you know that are literally, I know a hundred, but I off the top of my head that hell, when Barry Satoro came in, they shaved everything off. And the only thing that they randomly are in contact with all of us through is a cell phone.
And they do exactly what I've told you guys to do. They use drop phones. And only on occasion do they touch base. And there's whole armies of people out there like that here in Michigan. They're not in touch with anything. They're not in there. Everything is, they've stepped sideways. They don't have any interaction. They don't use the internet. They are literally blacked out. But they're not stupid. They understand fully what's going on. And they're not isolated.
There's a vast army of people like that ready and willing. In fact, they already made their decision. Politics, why bother? Taxes, why bother? But don't punish you, come on out. We're already armed up and ready for that. If that's the reason we go to war, that's as good as any. America went to war over a 5 to 10% attack, depending on what year you look at before the American War for Independence, and where are we right now?
So if you want to make taxes, you must try and steal people's property because of the income tax crap. Well, we'll kill your ass over that and not think twice about it. Yeah, I think and that's again all it takes is a match on that gasoline. So go ahead. I'm sorry. Yeah, go ahead fellas.
I'm
Life is a lumber yard and you know what happened? That thought went over into the trim department, the old trim department. We're all woods a little slightly, slightly discolored, right? Yeah. I can't find it right now. It left. So I'm sorry. And the lighting is real dark over there. It's not really good. I only got one 50 watt bulb up there hanging to the ceiling. I know how that is. It happens when you have so many things before you. Well, there's other things, playa, that are pressing in some respects around. So anyway, and
One of the things about cell phones, I think we probably could live without them, but I don't know that that's going to be something that actually people are going to be willing to do. What's going to happen is the system, okay, the chain of events itself will force that. Number one, Dave, does your cell phone work great everywhere you go? Yes, it does. Mine does. Oh, mine doesn't. Here's the thing about that.
is cell phone towers gone would eliminate most of the service for most everybody that's listening right now. Does anybody think, I mean there's a couple problems you're gonna have. Number one is how about this one? How many destructive little rats and animals do you have out there who just bust stuff up for the sake of busting stuff up? Lots. Oh, lots.
Do you realize how many if they talk about infrastructure being susceptible? It's not the 30-06 or whatever or somebody shooting at something's gonna knock everything out It's the fact that there's somebody going in that's gonna either disassemble crap for copper Bust stuff up like I said just for the fun of it. Hey, you know what? There's nothing out here. Watch me. You know bang bang bang or Wow, he electrocuted himself, but it was pretty impressive when he hit that live wire
Wow, Bob is dead. Oh my god. Quick, give me some more drugs. Let me try that. Bob was looking really cool. It was like a Bugs Bunny cartoon, man. I saw a skeleton there before he went. Number two, you know, there are so many different ways. You know, for a while they were reporting it. Now they don't report it anymore in Africa.
The villagers, okay, the oil's big in Africa. So they've got pipelines running all across the country like we do here. Thing is here, we don't try to steal gasoline or even oil products off of the pipelines by walking out with a drill and...
and then having a bucket on standby. They do that over there. You know what happens every time? And this is the thing. Whole village wiped out. Why was the village wiped out? Well, the first guy went up with that. Oh, wait a minute. It's not a brushless machine. They got that battery powered drill out there and they. They could a half inch more in and they got a bunch of Jerry cans there. Well, somebody sees that Babooka is out there doing that. So he comes out with his drill.
And now you've got his bucket out there. And by the time you're done, there's 50 characters sucking off that pipe. But number 51, well, there's a lot of splashing going on. And now there's a lot of vapor in the air and the gasoline is medium octane. And finally, number 51 goes, boo.
Well, because Babooka's kids were out there with buckets right behind them. Babooka's kids were over there on the other hole. And when that sucker went off, the fuel air mix was perfect. And every last one of their asses got fried and blew up. And it was not a pleasant death, but there was no place for them to get medical attention.
And so 50, 70, 100 people died all once. What else it did, blew out the infrastructure. Why? That was the pipeline that was making the money for the state. See, that's the kind of stuff that just randomly by itself will blow out whole elements of this infrastructure without any boom.
People doing stupid things because they should they do know better not should know better They all know better, but you've got real flaky people out there So all it's gonna take is progressively enough, you know cut-off saws and or people being vindictive some people have a Vent data with the phone company
It's like, uh, sons of buggers. I'm gonna show them. Come on, Hal. We're going over to the cell tower. Why? Well, bastards, they cut my phone service. Well, if I can't have it, nobody can. There goes the lock for the gate. And after that, it's, well, let's see, thermite on that line and thermite on that line and... But after a while, you see the tower kind of wink and blink and then the lights go out.
The signal goes off and that's all she wrote. So you better have alternate communications ready. It doesn't mean we won't use the cell phones for as long as we can. A lot of everybody, I don't carry one, but we have them around. I don't carry a cell phone.
In fact, I've never carried a cell phone. But I have a, you know, there's more of an interest, so that way I can always move better too because it's like I was wondered about, like one minute I can be here in Michigan. Or at least you can believe all you want about me being in Michigan. And then the next day I'm in Shelby Park, down on the border with Mexico. And I didn't have to cut anything. You just have to be creative and remember.
So radio, radio, radio, it's a priority. Personal radios, FRS radios, CB radios, two meter radios, marine radios. Guys, we need to be radioed up across the whole spectrum. As soon as we get ready for what's going on here and get that done out of the way, the better off we'll all be. Because we won't be in the same boat everybody else is. But you know, Phyllis, something I will say is the addiction. These kids are going to be bouncing off the wall. Kids are...
I've already asked a friend of mine's grandson, because they're either on video games on the television or they're on their cell phones and they're playing video games with their friends and everything. So what happens if you don't have those things? Then what happens? And they can't answer that question because they have no idea. But yeah, like I said, if it was the end of school, the school day, I would get on the bus, get dropped off, I'd have to go
Walked the three miles uphill to get to the house. Out in the middle of nowhere, the top of the county, the upper end of Washtenaw County. Well, it wasn't quite uphill every direction, there was some down too. But the idea is to get home, quick change out, drop everything off, I need to drop off, grab my coat, grab my rifle, grab the dogs. And I would be gone until it was time to eat. And as soon as it was time to eat, I would get back out in the field, be gone until after sunset.
Real quick, I'm gonna break in here because dad, you know, I'm an old school gamer We've paid for our games and hell if you've bought us a old Commodore knockoff Radio Shack computer and had us do code for you know, the first video games that we ever played I've been talking about this on the town hall meeting and I've been pointing people to things, you know
The internet goes down and you want internet connection back up. It's going to be the gamers that figured out. I pointed this out with Seattle wireless. I pointed it out with the underground internet in Cuba and I posted the video link for people to see it guys. It's caveman technology, but the gamers if they want to game, they'll make it work.
Yeah, they're the ones you're going to turn to. Well, let me put it this way. We talk about something. Ultranet and Hallmark and Golden Spike are just exactly that. They are separate internet type technology, never hooked up to the internet, never have been, never will be. And they're isolated. The way that they're developed or were developed is because people wanted to only talk to each other. They didn't want to talk to anybody else.
But what happens as they progressively got more interested and found more friends, the system expands geometrically all on its own, but it's with the religiosity of not wanting to be compromised by the system. And this is why on the alternate side in another spot where I could use it, and I have to be religious myself, I'm using a, I can hook up a 386 compacts.
not compacts, compact. Ed knows which one it is because we've had it forever. And that particular piece of equipment is a dinosaur, an absolute dinosaur by anybody's standards today. But you know what? Because there's no government connection to it. It runs like a raped ape.
It runs like it is in fact, I've got a computer I've got right below my knee right now is a cut is not cutting edge It's not the latest but it's a gamer machine that would be to die for you don't run The thing is when you're doing that you don't run the latest greatest technology on it Okay, the software that you run on it is the best software that people put together at the end of the computers lifespan and
and people have expanded upon it. You know, the computers don't speak the same language as they did before with the different operating systems. Although you can emulate and you can run programs to do what those other programs used to do, but with all this stuff with AI and making people say stuff, we used to do that with 286 computers with voice samples.
You know, just try to patch together people saying different things. We used to do little radio skits. I don't know. People in Dexter might remember this because I know me and my brothers did this, but other people that we knew in the area did this too. We'd make fun of Star Trek and do little tape recordings of, you know, Captain's Log, do impersonations and shit, and then splice them together and play with them on the computer.
There's all kinds of stuff that we used to play with as kids. You know, it was older technology. All this AI crap is just that with new toys and bangle-dangle, you know, stuff to modify the voice, pitch and everything.
The latest thing out of out of Hollyweird is, oh my god, the AI is gonna ruin, you know, artists and music and all that. Well, you know what? I remember growing up in the 80s, what was a big thing that country singers and rock and roll artists were getting kicked off about? Is anybody could sound good because of sound synthesizers?
You know, which auto-kit level and everything and they brought a big petition up on it and everything they signed it and they tried to get the Me and everything to back them and you know what it didn't go anywhere Now you I've seen the exact same thing with the AI thing and oh my god, they're stealing our voices and they don't need us to sing anymore That's where that's where holly weird has always been going. They don't want to pay you
But here again, the idea is if the technology that's available, we're awash. If you don't throw away the older equipment, and this is what I've been trying to get everybody to understand, don't throw away the older technology. Then we end up with a very inexpensive alternate solution that very quickly can be put up and online.
There's no reason for us ever to go into the Stone Age. My problem is where we have gone with the age of the era that we're in, because it has taken people away from the real world. It's the idea that this is an alternate, it's an alternate solution or an alternate communication system that's readily available, but it should be used for entertainment. That really is its primary and should be its only purpose.
Because nobody's ever truly done what they all always claimed would be done that oh This would be the latest greatest thing since sliced white bread the world would change things would improve What would anybody say that things have actually improved? Let me put it this way with with computers
How we do with our elections, which I argued years ago is the last thing you wanted were computers tied into our election process. How are things going with our election process now that we got computers tied into it? What's happening there? Can we say hack? Can we say betrayal?
Can we talk about the level of criminality involved with because we've allowed what is an obscene and easily alterable technology being incorporated in what's supposed to be a sovereign process of adults? And it's not been, it's just the reverse. It's been a complete debauchery. It's been a complete butchery of anything that has to do with adulthood and anything within the way of honor.
In fact, the first thing that jumped at it were the criminal types and all of the pathetic globalists, ring knockers, spit swapping turds, the pedo-satanic queers that immediately corrupted it to the nth degree. Real quick, Dan, one thing that has definitely changed is everybody could figure out paper ballots before.
Now we've got the electronic ballots and the Democrats are claiming that you know people are too stupid to figure out how the electronic ballots work. Yeah, we're dumb. We need like a week for a class on how the electronic ballots work before they get there. Oh and we can't we could count the paper ballots in a day but now we need a probably a month or two to count the electronic ballots.
which is again typical of the burden of overcomplicating a simple process. Again, the Committee of Monkeys system is a failure. And it's why we need to act accordingly. Go ahead, come in there please. One thing too that's changed as well too is there are more
I've seen a couple pictures of Biden. In one picture of Biden, he almost looks like he's starting to look like Jeff Dunham's Walter. And in the other picture of Biden, it almost looks like he's a computer. You know, because his face is perfect. Everything is perfect on his face.
And that's altered as well too, so they can make people say whatever they want to say. Well, the thing about AI, this is the other thing, I know we're not way off of everything else we've been talking about here, is to me, especially, I want AI to paint a picture for me. Why? Well, because why?
Well, it serves no purpose whatsoever. In fact, in the way it's a perform. Here's the bad thing with AI. AI doesn't generate anything on its own. Any image that you see AI creating, it's taken bits and pieces of other people's artwork and compiled together what it thinks you want to see. So even though it might be an original, it's an original forgery from multiple different original artists' products.
And the same thing with an AI generated host.
It's not going to say anything that it hasn't been programmed to say, that it hasn't been quote unquote taught to say. And again, you've got to take a look at what are these companies teaching it that are being, you know, hired to decide what the answers to a question are because that's literally what's going on. You have a bunch of people go in and talk to the AI and tell it what's appropriate, what's an appropriate answer. And that's why you get like what happened with Google where it
It's extremely a racist program. Can't get around it. It's AI is totally racist. But there are two aspects to this because what Phyllis is talking about, of course, is what we've already said for quite a while. Remember, and this is no surprise for anybody in the Patriot effort or anybody that's been listening to the Intel report, is that with
computer technology, they actually had to back off with video games because video games were already presenting to you with an under the under the table of over the counter computer. We're able to show you images that were very, very close to lifelike to the point where we know people that do just certain body parts. Every person was given to create the software to create the programming available.
to create all of the working body parts right down to hair follicles, the groin, the knee, the elbow, the ankle, facial construction, which has been a big problem because they could never quite get it right. Well, they did. If you notice,
In video games they backed off this into detailing intentionally because they didn't want everybody to realize just exactly how far they could go with this right away. Now, the people in the industry, they are actually talking about that. In fact, gamers and review sites are talking about that. That's one of the things with the
What with the quote-unquote new gamer gate thing that that that they're talking about is the fact that you know The games are all trying to go to live service. They all want everything on a subscription They don't want you to have any physical media whatsoever and part of in doing that you lose Quality if everything's a live service game and it's always online and you can only access it when you're online You're always downloading something which downgrades the graphics a lot of the people who make
Story driven games are complaining about the fact that everybody wants to go to live service with all these gaming companies because they can charge you more for it. And that's really what it comes down to. It's not allowing them to use the level of graphics that they have available to them. It's not allowing them to use the story tools that they normally would have.
all because they're pushing agenda, they're pushing this, you're gonna own nothing and you're gonna be happy about it. We're not just seeing that come from the Canadian government. If you, we've talked about this before, you're seeing it come from the gaming industry, you're seeing it come from the entertainment industry when it comes to movies and whatnot. If they could, they would have it completely off the shelf, that way they could change and edit things as they want, like what Disney's done with censoring a lot of movies.
But part of the process, one of the reasons, and this is something to take into consideration, is if you look, the reality tech, they want that, but they want it in their, purely in their camp so that you don't, they didn't want everybody to realize that virtually everybody has at their fingertips the ability to fabricate an AI type creature, which people are already doing. Okay, people are doing it quite well. They can either do it in comic form, in other words, make it seem a little cheesy,
Which is intentional, because you don't, again, the idea is not to bury yourself in this to the point where you're supporting the other system. But it's still happening from the government end, like we're saying, everybody's talking about. Well, half the time, the petal sniffer meat puppet is, and then all of a sudden it's like he's a typewriter. Now, it varies depending upon the environmental control and the venue.
If it's a closed system, then AI can take over very quickly. If it's a public system where you see the body, the corpus, whatever, well, then you're counting on body doubles and things of that nature, which is that technology in and of itself is a very different level than everybody wanted to originally accept. Now everybody's starting to realize that that's a reality. That altering physically a person with a silica mask and all the other, again, they perfected that art.
to the nth degree and they're using it. But here's the thing, look at the comparative study here. Everybody just saw what happened with the BS with the Gemini, Gemini, am I right? The latest one that was put out by Google. First of all, obviously, everybody in the world became black. And if not black, some other offshade depending upon where you want to throw a dart at the palette for skin color, okay? That's not a problem. But here's the thing.
The pictorial imagery that's shown is at two levels that everybody should be thinking about. Number one, with regard to accurate detail, it's in the toilet. It's crappy. And I mean, I say crappy, I mean like, well, show me a picture of George Washington. So they show you a picture of George Washington and it's like looking at a cartoon history piece from the television series Futurama.
They got Washington looking like a third world grand admiral of a fleet that never has fought a battle in its life. But the person is showing Washington he's got more fruit salad on his chest than a Russian grand, grand commissar, okay? Or any kind of potentate. Not only that, but then he's black too. But the features are all caricature rather than accurate.
Both in the representation of a period of time. Look at some of the crap. In fact, this is becoming worse, but there's no reason for it. We are in the age of imagery retention of the likes that nobody has seen. Well, we've had it typically in limited library forms.
Those libraries should now be totally shareable and should be incredibly accurate. But just the reverse is taking place. They are trying to take the AI comic book bullshit and slide it over trying to baffle everybody with BS and claim that it's reality. But if you look at the quality of the product, it's junk. It's the representation of both the individual
or the historical benchmark or era that the character, the individual, or the subject is in are totally askew. And I mean to the point where it's not just bad, it's worse. It's crappy. And in fact, there is in no way, shape, or form any kind of standard maintained, which I personally believe they're laughing their ass off about.
If you look at the images like when they showed you, well, George Washington, George Washington is black. My God, George Washington is black. No, it's a George Washington, he didn't even look like a George Washington of any kind to begin with. And on top of that, again, the historical reference to costume configuration of historical benchmarkers again, like regalia, etc., totally wrong. Absolutely, totally wrong.
And but they figure, will they go to so stupefied they'll never figure this out. Whole, whole, whole, whole, which is another reason I want to hang the bastards. I personally think they're asking to be dragged out and shot because they know exactly what they're doing. We have the technology that could advance our population and our people on a across the board. But they are doing the exact opposite with grossly over expensive
super sophisticated technology that in reality serves no real purpose whatsoever. If you've stuck the monkey wrench in it the way that they have, it's useless, it's worthless, it's irrelevant. Stick to the books, preserve the working knowledge. We actually, right now, I personally believe, and I am like this right now, we are the only people that are gonna preserve the actual histories. We're in the dark ages of stupidity right now.
on a level that's just, there's no reason for it. And I think Musk actually understands this to a degree because he kind of was lamenting about the AI, BS, okay? But I don't think anybody's wrapping their brain around. What I'm just telling you is what I think he's worried about too, or he's concerned with. Because you're looking at a totally dumbed down population, but done with the teaching aides on a level that is unconscionable, it's criminal.
And like I said, I'd shoot the bastards. I wouldn't think twice. You would not want to be around me right now. Most of what I see with these asshats, they just need to be gone. And there's nothing that you're gonna do to fix this formula until you get rid of them. And I mean get rid of them. This is life and death for the whole idea of the advancement of humanity in general. And the ability for us to continue to go, function with any kind of level of intelligence.
They need to be gone. They need to be dead. And if we don't do it sooner rather than later, it's again, how much harder is it going to be or how much wasted time, first of all, because of what they're doing is taking place.
Kids are not smarter, they're not brighter. I don't care how many pat on the heads or how many special awards you give anybody, the performance levels are in the toilet across the board. I was thinking about this because I've had discussions with people about, for instance, working, just actually working. And people are telling you, having such a tough time, life is so terrible. What did you do today?
And then when it's described as like you actually have no burden, there is, you've not exerted yourself in any way, shape, or form, but oh my God, it's so terrible. They're used to the wheezy, whiny, wussy, it's terrible chant because that will allow you to get away with anything. But how many of you have ever thought about, did any of you listening ever work in a factory?
And I'm not saying that's really going, but I'm just asking a question. Have you ever worked, did you ever work in a factory, ever worked in an automotive plant, ever worked in a machine shop, ever worked in a foundry? I've been in all of those and worked in most all of those. The biggest problem
have to work from the ground up to bring people back up to some work standard, labor standard, to get something done. And the illegal aliens aren't going to do that either because they don't have the IQ build up that goes along with the benefit that we had of food, education, and physical resources, all in the same place at the same time. This is why they attacked America the way that they did and why we're now in the toilet the way that we are, which is now that we're just going to be putting off our generation, 50, 60, and 70 year olds, to try and follow
When the Bullshitters have a cool act or squat, you try and drag your ass into their failure because it's like Adrancic fixing your enemies, putting your enemies in front of them so they can break it again. And when they try to climb aboard your lifeboat and drown their ass, Republic, we shall pay the ladies and gentlemen on the run. There was nothing bloody where people were really producing something.
I'm serious. I got to get out of the way. And we got Craig from Minnows. We'll be right up right now. God bless. Bye-bye. Craig, we have pushed the wrong buttons. I think I'm on now. It is April 3rd of 2024. Tried to get on last week. Had a little bit of problem. So I pulled up my notes and things because I really don't have time. So I pulled up my notes from things I was going to talk about last week. I tried to...
We create what I was going to do last week. We've got a lot of things on my list here. You're welcome to call in and participate if you wish. But if you're listening on April 3rd, that is, and you're alive, other than that, you're just listening to me on a tape. We had such a thing as tape anymore. Shows my age. But let's see here. I do not have any shows until I've got to dedicate myself to now the weather's warming up. Things aren't.
I'm in Michigan and my project's in Michigan and the ground never really froze this year, I don't think. So I probably could have kept working most of the year as far as doing earth stuff. But anyway, I need to get back out there and start. I'm still trying to find a mechanic to work on two of my pieces of equipment. In the meantime, I got two others that are working, so I'm going to do what I can with the two. Then try to get some equipment fixed. I got a new engine and a crawler loader, a John Deere crawler loader, a new engine and a...
a MAC 5-ton military truck. But I just need to do the final connections. I want to have a mechanic there. I don't know how to set the timing on a flight. I got an idea how to set the timing on the MAC because it's gasoline, but I don't have a timing gun. And I don't want to start the thing up and have a runaway engine or something, destroy the thing. And what some mechanic, somebody knows what they're looking at, looking at it for me before we get started or know what to do if it does have a runaway or something bad happens.
And also the John Deere is a diesel, but although the mechanical fuel injection pump has been rebuilt, I don't know if the timing is the right word for that, but probably is. You get the idea. You got to inject fuel at the right time in order to get that thing to work right. And again, I don't want a runaway engine or engine running backwards or something, mother, something else that could happen. So if you know any mechanics that know anything about heavy equipment, I really would love to hear from you.
to anywhere near southern Michigan. Because I've been through about a dozen mechanics already. I've just been a long time trying to get this machinery fixed. Really got to get it fixed so I can start these projects. I can't do it with just the thing that I have. Well... Hi. How far from the thumb are you? Probably two and a half hours travel time. I'm only about a half an hour from the Ohio border. I had about 40 minutes from the Indiana border. Oh, okay. So they're in the south...
Southwest side the south of Jackson. Okay. Okay kind of in the middle of the state. Wait, I'm sorry. I don't I don't know. Have you talked to Dave stone? Township supervisor Hillsdale Township Hillsdale Township. I know where Hillsdale is. What what does he play? He's mechanic or what's the deal there? Well, he's the commander
He's the commander of the Houtari militia and the township supervisor of Hillsdale Township. He was just on with Mark in the second hour. He probably has a connection to a mechanic in that area. Okay. So check with Ed to get you in touch with Dave Stone or Mark to get you in touch with Dave Stone. I bet you he knows somebody.
Okay, but even in the thumb area I'd be willing if I get a mechanic out of here for like a full day or two And I'll be putting them up if they need to stay over another day I'd be willing to pay somebody travel time from the other area as well, so this is something that I just gotta get done I can't just be running a longer, so I'm willing to think Okay, I I do know a young man that
He's a mobile mechanic, but he's you know, he's got a family young kids and stuff So and he's got like five of them so I don't know if he would do you know that might be a little too far and You know a bigger project than he might be willing to take on all have to check in with him Yeah, and I also need somebody that has old-school knowledge. This equipment has no computers It's like old-school diesel old-school gasoline
Well, that might be a blessing, Craig. I don't know if you've ever had to deal with any modern John Deere equipment. John Deere made it to where they're in a lawsuit over this right now. They set up their machines to, if their onboard computer detects a problem, it shuts down the whole machine. And you as a John Deere owner or as a John Deere mechanic,
are not allowed to have those diagnostic tools to fix it. So it literally has to go to John Deere. You have to have a John Deere representative come out to fix your farm equipment now. Yeah, that's stuff that's made within the last, like, say 20, 25 years. I'm talking 1970s John Deere. So we don't have any computers on. 1970s John Deere and 1950s Mac Army trucks. So again, old school stuff, no computers.
So, yeah, if anybody has any, you can email me if anybody has any ideas, any tips, or contacts at forbiddenknowledge.yahoo.com, if anybody has any names or numbers that I can follow up on some of the stuff on. Well, I would say, you know, of course, look at the yellow pages, but, you know, yellow pages is almost nothing nowadays. I think the last one I got here was barely a centimeter thick.
I have found about a dozen mechanics locally, fairly close, that I've had to come out, look at it, and work on it a little while, then disappear on me. I paid a lot of money already on mechanics. One mechanic was when I charged $200 an hour, and he wouldn't even do it. He gave me a name with somebody else. $200.
And any mechanic that, by the way, any names you give, I have most all the tools anybody would need here. I don't have specialty things like a timing gun, for instance, but I have most anything that most any mechanic would need here on the job site. So being able to handle it with an official truck or anything that probably isn't that critical. It probably just would need somebody to bring a few tools that might be specialized that
A guy like me might not have. I had virtually any of them. This is for your back loader, right Craig? Well, no, I have a big excavator too. I got a crane excavator. Those are running. Also got, the machines in question, what's a crawler loader, John Deere? 450B, if anybody knows what that is. That's like kind of a medium science. They ain't nowhere near a D8.
big build-overs, but it's not a real small one either. It's kind of mid-range. And then the Army truck, five-ton military six-ton. My usual contact for stuff like that, you know who would be a B, would have been Monahan. But as you know, Captain Monahan's passed away. I don't know who's taken up his collection of contacts for antique engines like that. But you may look up
Antique Engine Show, see if you can find some contact mechanics there. Because believe it or not, it's actually going to fall in that category. I know Jim Monahan, he held that Antique Show. Does he still do that? Does somebody still do that? I don't know. Domino's Farms, you got to remember when his brother sold out, it was in their contract to keep that going as long as Jim was alive.
Jim's past, I don't know if the antique engine show is even going on there at Domino's Farms anymore. And I'm down in Texas, so it's even harder for me to find out. Jim probably, I mean whoever took it over, if anybody did, may not even have the access to the property anymore anyway. But they could have been holding it at some other spot. But I had- Well, it's not the only antique engine show in Michigan.
I do know, oh gosh, trying to think of where that gun show is in the middle of the state just below Lansing. I can't think of the name of the city right now. Not the Selena.
What Mason yeah, I think what yeah Mason the Mason fairgrounds They have an antique engine show in fact I would look at the at the fairgrounds like I told you this before Look at the tool shows you might have mechanics that come through there that would have contact for you on Or at least give you an idea on where to go to look at you know it's like you said
As Don used to say, if you wanted to drive Corvette, you talk to Corvette drivers. You want to talk about farm equipment and stuff. Look at the farmers. And farmers do deal with heavy equipment like that. So farm tools, tractor supplies, John Deere collectors, those should be the people you're looking to get a hold of, Craig. Especially since that one of them is a John Deere unit.
Yeah, I don't even personally I maybe I don't really consider it an antique because I used it all the time But maybe maybe it is considered an antique because I know those antique trackers and the seam engines and all that 50 years or older now is it 50 years or older now? Okay. Well, it's not 50 years about it. Yeah, it's an antique
I can still get quite a lot of parts for both of those machines, all my machines. I've been able to, I haven't tried to get too many big parts off of my big excavator. That's, well, all my stuff is kind of in the mid-70s for the most part. And so, because when I bought them about 25 years ago, they weren't extremely old, but they were what I could afford at the time.
So, anybody that has any information that might help me out there, forbid knowledge at yahoo.com, please contact me. I still got to find somebody. I'm willing to pay the proper going rate. I'm not looking for any favors here. I'm just looking for my machinery fixed. So, okay, I have a thing. Before I get very far, I want to give some advice to people who might want to go see the eclipse.
Okay, the eclipse, I'm sure everybody's heard about it by now, is on April 8th. It starts out crossing the country from Mexico, going to, I don't have a map in front of me, but going by memory here, cutting through Mexico, going up through Texas, around San Antonio, roughly, going, keep continuing at an angle all the way through the country, all the way through Maine.
Skirting across Lake Erie. Going through all of Texas. I think it goes, Texas goes pretty much over, very close to being over Austin. Fort Wayne. Fort Worth. Dallas Fort Worth. Anyway, continuing on, goes over, I think Arkansas, Kentucky, and I think Mississippi for the most part, the middle of it. Anyway, if you were in,
I think somewhere in Kentucky where both of them crossed over the one we had in 2017. The reason I'm speaking about this is because I have experienced what happened in the 2017 total eclipse. And I gotta tell you, if you're willing to travel, okay, if you're traveling, there's a lot of things you gotta be aware of that you may not think about.
A lot of people, for instance, you're not going to get a hotel. There's no way you're going to go call ahead and get a hotel right now. You would have to call ahead more than a year ago from when I've been here. So you're not going to call ahead and get a hotel. So if you go, you're going to have to make it a day trip. Unless you're able to sleep somewhere in your car or in a van or whatever, you're going to have to make it a day trip. Now, if you're more than about two or three hours drive away, it's probably going to be much longer than a day trip.
I had to laugh when I heard I saw a YouTube video of a school near Grand Rapids, Michigan. It was having a field trip to go see the eclipse. Somebody really didn't think that through because that's like a three to four hour drive with no traffic to go somewhere in Indiana, Northern Indiana. Well, actually, they would have had to go out near Indianapolis.
to be able to see the eclipse. And that's like a four hour drive from Grand Rapids. So, I'm thinking, well, it doesn't get through very well because, okay, they leave in the morning, they're gonna get there in four hours, well, that's not gonna happen. There's gonna be massive traffic jams the closer you get to the center of the eclipse. That's something you gotta realize here, you're gonna get traffic jams. Go ahead, caller.
Yeah, I heard that the governor of Indiana has called for a state of emergency Because of the eclipse and has called in the National Guard Yes, I've heard that around various other counties in Texas have done that too. Yeah, and the reason the National Guard and a lot of people like Immediately posting conspiracy theories about it. Did somebody else had a comment? I heard somebody else wanted to comment. Calling out the National Guard doesn't automatically mean there's some kind of
major thing happening as far as some kind of government takeover, whatever, because the internet is just full of that stuff. It's largely a matter of logistics and traffic control probably is the main reason. Craig, I'm going to stop you right there, because if you're worried about traffic on a state level, who do you call? Who do you call? And they have reserves.
the state police or the county police and the city police in the area. And yes, typically they can handle it. Calling the National Guard out for something like just taking care of street duties, that's overkill and you know it. They're gonna have a whole lot more traffic than any other circumstance that those counties that have called out National Guard has ever had. They don't have enough
local police or state police in order to be able to handle all the things that could possibly happen in this instance. And it's more assuming that there is no conspiracy theory around this eclipse.
No matter how many things people post online and start talking about whining about all this crap I don't think anything major is going to happen as far as needing the National Guard for some kind of riot control or whatever all the things that people have been posting about it and I just think I agree anything that we need the National Guard out there for this event we have state police
We have county police, we have city police, we have reserve police departments. Yes, you do, you have more than enough for what's gonna be on the street. And on top of that, you're not gonna have as many people coming from as far as you think for this event because people can't afford the gas to travel. That's one thing that the astronomers and everybody has been talking about their interest in this. Other than a few occult sites, they're talking about traveling to be equipped to perform rituals.
Which there yeah, I could see that that and that's not conspiracy that's actually like the state the Church of Satan out of California is talking about traveling to To the eclipse to perform rituals and other things Under the eclipse. Yeah, you have you do have groups of dinner. That's not conspiracy They're posting it on their own religious websites and go check that stuff out for yourself
So, yeah, there could be, just with that alone, there could be some conflict that's brewed there just because they're going to do it for the sake of doing it. But again, I don't see needing the National Guard for this type of BS event. How long is the eclipse going to last, Craig? Well, it's going to last more than a whole day.
As far as the traffic problem, yes. Yes, it will. Well, possibly the traffic problem. But you know what? Michigan has a traffic problem like that in Ann Arbor every time they have a football game. Well, I did Ann Arbor.
I've been in Ann Arbor doing those football games, and that's just a game with thousands of people. We're near like the millions of people that could potentially run to head for this eclipse. The eclipse itself only lasts two or three minutes, depending where you're at, up to three and a half or something minutes. Depending on how close you are to the center of the line of the travel. I don't agree with you, Ed, and we'll just disagree here on this. Okay, wait, wait. Craig, how many... Talking about distance and travel, okay?
If there is going to be a cluster at certain locations, it's going to be locations where you can see the eclipse and you're going to have like wide open space where people can do it. And there are only so many millions of people in the US in the first place, right? You're not going to have that many people at all this point. It's doing a sweep across the country. You can pick any point along there and go there and it's not going to be millions of people. Just from the
Slice, you know the girth the distance that is traveling It's gonna be it's gonna be huge. You're gonna be able to see it from all over the place You're not if you're within that corridor Unless you want to be like smack dab in the middle with your GPS go in there to do that And if you're that crazy to to worry about being smack dab in the middle of the line And are you trying to chase the eclipse?
Is that what you're talking about? Because, yeah, people are trying to chase the eclipse. I can see that being a problem. Possibly need the National Guard for that because you're going to have to go hundreds of miles an hour just to stay ahead of the damn thing. Right. Well, there's no way you're going to try to chase it unless you're in an airplane. I mean, there's no way you're going to chase it on the ground. Yeah. There's no chasing it on the ground. There are very out of the trouble spots, Craig. There are very few stadiums, parks, and anything that's going to be able to handle the numbers that you're talking about.
And the ones that are, they've already got their own security, they already got their own traffic thing. This event, it goes, how many states is it crossing across in the US? I know you like astrology, you like science fiction. It's hitting Texas, it's hitting Oklahoma, it's hitting
More than it does, there's quite a lot of facts. So it's not like it's all going to be concentrated in Indiana, is it? You think that the millions of people that are going to go see this eclipse are all going to Podunk, Indiana to watch an eclipse? Or are they going to go to the area where it's crossing the closest to them that's more cost affordable?
Here's a number I just pulled off the Internet, Ed, from maybe you know this station, KXAN, in Texas. And they expect, according to this report, they expect between $931,000 to $3.725 million expected to travel to see the eclipse. That's just in Texas. No, that's – but, no, that you see, you just screwed up the numbers there, Craig.
The first number is a local number. The first number is the local number. That second number is nationwide. No, this is not... It's not just... No, I read that article.
The first number is talking about their local read, what they can prove with reservations for hotels and everything that's going on there at that pinpoint. And then the second number, that larger number, is across the whole of the nation, people who are gonna travel to the path of the eclipse. They're not all going to that one pinpoint on the map.
Well, you can argue that with... If you think that millions of people are going to one point on the map, well, take a look at the map and put up at every city that's along there, put a million people there. You've got more than you do the planet. Well, there's... So the whole thing about meeting the National Guard on that level is B... is BS.
Well, I will just disagree on that and I'm not I don't really want to dwell on We don't have enough to cover it and All the time and number I was right You're talking about facts and numbers all the time on your program, right? It's I just gave you some number you did
And you mis-skewed and misrepresented what the article was saying. And we will talk about this on April 9th and we will see who's right.
Okay, just leave it at that because I don't think anything major is going to happen. In fact, it really depends on if clouds are forecast in these areas, it could be a big bust. A lot of businesses think they're going to really make out, but if it turns out to be rainy that day or cloudy anywhere along the path, there's going to be a whole lot of busts and a whole lot of pissed off people, I suppose, that already made the reservations years ahead of time. But the weather is what really is going to pay the most
I don't know if I will write the word use. It's going to make things much worse depending on what the weather is doing or what the weather is, if it's clear or not. But let me explain what happened with my personal experience based on the eclipse that I saw back in 2017. I had just done a show in Arkansas and I was heading back up towards Michigan and I had to wait. I took my time. I checked all the weather reports because I could have saw it in various states.
Bypass towards Tennessee or bypass towards Kentucky or even Illinois To watch I've watched the weather report for all the areas that I could potentially go through on my way back up because I wanted to see it I had not seen one before and so anyway, it turned out that it was pretty clear going straight ahead and so going through Kentucky I picked out a spot and it was near Hopkinsville I think it's what anyway, I made a YouTube video that I posted the view to video about it on my YouTube channel
And since I went there the day before, good day, the whole day, and I sleep in my van in the area, to me it really wasn't a big problem getting there. There wasn't a lot of traffic. So my advice to you, if you are going to go,
If you can, watch the weather report before you leave, the next day, but you can leave the night before and sleep somewhere in your car. There's places, I know places I can sleep, you ought to be, you'll just have to wing it, because there might be a lot of other people doing the same thing to try to beat the traffic. Now, after the eclipse was over with, when come time to leave, now, I was hoping to just get on the road and start going, but it was like being in downtown Chicago on rush hour.
The traffic was just stopped for quite a way. The engine... Do you need the National Guard to direct you out of there? I don't... I didn't watch the parts that have the National Guard. No, did you see... you drove through it. Did you see the National Guard out directing traffic? Were there humvees in the street, guys in camouflage uniforms out taking care of people that were broken down alongside the road? I didn't see it. You were waiting for right? You were behind the wheel.
I'm quite about the National Guard array. I already explained to you that when I tried to leave, the problem is you're in stock, you're almost traffic mostly stock for quite a while. Once you travel, once you travel is the right word for it. Once you're on the road for a couple hours, it starts thinning out and eventually you'll start getting up to more normal speed. So expect a mass traffic jam and think about this, if you're on the road,
gas stations. Make sure you have a full tank before you go. Make sure you have enough gas to get back. Because not only could the gas stations have long lines, they may be completely out of fuel. Also, if you need to go into the bathroom, think about this, you're stuck on the road for hours.
For men it's easier for women, but figure out a way how you're going to be able to go to the bathroom while you're stranded in traffic. You're not going to be able to run to the next accident and get up to the truck stop and go to the bathroom and hit the road again. Because it might take you a couple of hours to get to that truck stop. So keep that in mind. Maybe you want to bring food with you.
Think of it as like a small being stranded or something because it could very well be like that depending on where you are in the country You could find mass traffic jams problems getting fuel problems going to bathroom comes getting food You're not going to just be able to run into McDonald's go to bathroom more likely. Let's just happen to be right at one It's not going to happen if you've ever if you've ever been to any major sporting event that last hours like you deserve that you like if you want to
go to the game and watch the game and you're in the parking lot. You're not gonna leave immediately when the game gets out because everybody's gonna be waiting for that. But unlike those big sporting events, this is only gonna be what, maybe seven minutes? Yeah, but everybody still wants to leave at the same time. Yeah, it's not gonna be any different than trying to leave a major sporting event. You're not gonna get anywhere fast until the crowd breaks up.
If you can, if you can find a place to park where you can just spend a night there, you're looking pretty. Not only the night before, but the day after is going to be your best chance of getting out of there without having to wait a long time. I'm just giving a little advice on what my personal experience of what I experienced when I saw the eclipse in 2017. Just trying to get it to the community. And that's only going to be if you're going to watch the eclipse from a public venue like a national park.
an outdoor park or an area on the area that's set aside or maybe along the freeway because people will park along the freeway to look at the eclipse. If you're smart, you'll talk to somebody who you know who's in the area and you'll go there and you'll watch it at their home. Again, if you can even make it there in time, that's the point. The traffic could be so bad. I mean, if you can make it there in time, how much time do people have to plan this, Greg?
You just have to leave real early, that's all. The people who have made reservations for hotels more than a year ago. So, very good.
You have to plan way ahead if you have any plans you just want to go and see it I'm just saying your best bet is to go the night before sleep somewhere near the area And then if you can't sleep there that night after the eclipse and then head back the next morning That's my best recommendation for people that are going to see the eclipse That's what I'm telling you have a way to go to the bathroom on the road I'm away again make sure you have enough fuel to get not only there But then back because you literally gas stations could be very much out of fuel
Yes, trucks won't be able to come in and replenish whatever they have in their tanks if everybody's already taken it, that's it. They aren't going to be able to get any fuel trucks there until the traffic eases up.
Not an emergency situation, but it's just a pre-planning of this kind of situation that could happen when you have this many people heading to an area. And again, if it's cloudy, it's all going to be a bust if we'll make any difference anyway. And some areas probably will be cloudy. You already can watch the long term. It's not going to be very accurate yet. You really ought to check the day before to get a clue whether or not you want to go or if you want to try to head to a different area. Find the weather report so you can easily look up online, the weather report for the area you're looking to go to.
and find out what the weather or whether it's going to be partly cloudy or it's going to be raining or whatever. Partly cloudy could be hit and miss because the cloud could be passing over right ahead right when the full eclipse is happening. Oh, and you need the glasses, you need special glasses.
Basically, there's a certain ISO standard. It's like one, two, three. There are simpler ways to look at an eclipse than glasses. That's a marketing scam for somebody in and of at the first place telling people that you need the glasses to look at the eclipse.
I remember the one eclipse that I saw, we used a two piece sheet of paper. We made a pinprick and we watched the eclipse on the reverse on the paper that was below. That's smart enough to figure out how to do that.
Because a lot of things if you want to buy the glasses, the glasses need to be the way to look directly at it. Unless you have the right welding helmet that has the right shade in order to safely look at it, you're going to want to get the glasses if you want to look directly at it. If you want to look indirectly, there's lots of ways of doing it. But I don't have enough to see, but I bet right now there's a big run on those things. So at some point they will probably run out or it'll just be too late to get it. So you got to plan ahead if you think you want to. They only cost like a buck or two if you buy them online.
I would be cautious about buying those glasses because I guarantee you there's some scammers that are out there that are doing on the super cheap and they're probably not even paying attention to that to you know what quality the filter is.
There's fake ones out there and they're supposed to have the right ISO standard or whatever that should be printed right on there. You can also look up the manufacturer of those glasses. There's a website where you can check to see the validity of the glasses you have based on the manufacturer. They have the right numbers in the name of that manufacturer. There's a website where you can look at this online to find out if your glasses are legitimate. I can tell you this, the glasses I had, if you put them on inside a room,
You will not see a damn thing. Even if you look directly at a light bulb, you almost will not see the light bulb almost. If you go outside and look directly at the full sun, you can see the sun. But it's so dark, it is nowhere near what sunglasses are. You literally can't see anything except going outside and look directly at the sun. A very bright light. So that's the kind of, if you've got a pair and you can look around and see things outside, you probably don't have bright glasses.
So anyway, you can check that out online. I don't have the website in front of me where you could actually see the connection. I would say this. If you intend to go and do this, go and see this, pick a spot that's out in BFE. Don't go to a metropolitan area because that's where the traffic is going to be the worst. Pick a pro-dunk, small postage stamp park along the path somewhere where it's not heavily populated.
The other spots like where you're going to have major traffic jams is going to be around the major cities, the major furrow there, the national parks, the state parks. I would look for something a lot smaller than that if you're just driving out there to look at it because those places will be packed. I don't believe you need the National Guard for that because we've had events like that before where people have been in those areas and the state and county police
Where the city police have been enough to deal with traffic before. That's my point. Well, we'll talk about it next week and I'll say I told you so. So, I was also gonna talk about a bunch of other things here, but I don't have much time to talk about all these obviously.
I'm not saying that anything, wait, wait, wait, Craig. I'm gonna correct you on that. I'm not saying that anything's gonna happen. I'm saying the National Guard is not needed. That is a waste of your taxpayers' money. And that is a waste of the National Guard's time when it could be put someplace else more efficiently, like on the border, where we've got the border crisis going on right now. But they're willing to waste that money spending it on policing the American people.
There could be a lot of other things that could happen too that would be normal for that number of people. Just like what might happen at a sporting event when you have that number. Accidents of all kinds of people. Yeah, but you don't need the National Guard to deal with that. You don't need the National Guard to deal with that. Alright, Pete. I see I got a list of things here that I was going to talk about. Let me see. Let me see. You pick out some of these that might be more easily for me to talk about in a short time than I had.
I thought this, I'm trying to find some things that maybe aren't widely publicized in the news. And one thing that I found was pretty interesting that's now happening in this country, that's happened in Europe and some other countries. I think I've seen in Paris, I mean, I've not been to Paris, but I've read about it. To where, well, here's the headline. New York City is going to start, let me see, that's not a proper headline.
New York City is going to start instituting a toll to come into the city, a congestion toll. Where anybody that's got the plans are coming into the city with their cars based on the time of the day, we'll encounter a toll just to come into the city.
They're trying to, well, they're, um, sensibly, they're trying to reduce traffic and pollution and all this stuff, right? That's what they're doing. But in the end, probably the real idea is to get people out of their cars and to try to get you used to taking public transit or bicycle or walking or just not even traveling, keeping people out of their cars. And so there's going to be a project, a, let me see, as early, as early as mid-June,
But officials not made any announcement about the timeline just yet. Let me see if I can find it. Trucks are going to be charged more. Let me see if I can find the prices in this article. Oh, here it is. New York Post reports that unless things change the last minute, this is the breakdown for each vehicle that will be charged during peak hours. Passenger vehicles, $15. Small trucks, $24. Large trucks, $36. Motorcycles, $7.50. Taxi drivers, $1.25 per ride.
Uber, Lyft, and other ride shares, $2.50 per ride. So as far as I know, this is the first city in the U.S. that's starting to implement something like this, although I have heard about it going on in various large cities in Europe. Okay, I'll move on to the next one, because that's probably all I need to talk about that, unless somebody wants to call out and talk about it. Let's see, Palisades. Let me see if I can find the article. I pulled it up here somewhere, I think.
Palisades, a lot of people I don't know, I'm talking about when I say Palisades. Palisades is a nuclear power plant, location of a nuclear power plant in western Michigan along the Lake Michigan shoreline, kind of near Grand Rapids area. And that has been shut down for more than two years. Now, what happened was over the last week, a little over a week ago, because I was going to talk about this last week,
The fence awarded a $1.5 billion loan potential to restart the Nipah Palisades Nuclear Power Plant in Michigan. Now if this happens, if it actually does restart, this is the very first time in our country's history that we've ever restarted a closed nuclear power plant. The nuclear power plant has already been defuelled.
Although, from what I've read, they haven't really decommissioned so much as far as removing the infrastructure of the plant itself. So, in my mind, because I think we need to be going more towards nuclear power.
This is a good thing, although ideally, the Energy Secretary Granholm was actually the governor of Michigan around the time that Palisades was having trouble with going to close down. So she didn't do seem to do anything then, but all of a sudden now she's on the Biden train and she's actually helping and probably proclaiming how they're going to give $1.5 billion. They're calling it a loan, not just giving the money.
a $4.5 billion loan just to see if the potential to restart the plant. So anyway, I think that's a good thing, but now it's going to cost us more. It could have kept it open. When it costs us much, now it's going to cost a whole lot more to get a shuttered nuclear power plant back to start it up again. There's a whole lot of considerations there. And you've got to get through both the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. It's just that it's going to be a boondoggle of red tape for a long time to try to get this plant open again. But we'll see what happens. If it happens, that will be the first one in this country.
And this kind of thing that Germany is going to have to do when they get their current administration out, they're going to have to restart their nuclear power plants. They shut down everything out of some bogus fear of Fukushima. Okay, anyway, that's that topic. Let's see, moving on. They got Israel, they got Ukraine, they got...
The bridge collapse, everybody knows about this of course, is nothing new. I worked in heavy industry and around heavy cranes. I've operated 300 ton cranes, 300 ton capacity cranes before. I've been a burner cutting metal with not only air arcing but also with acetylene torches, oxygen acetylene torches or propane and oxygen torches. So I have some experience in burning. I've experienced with cranes.
Now, this bridge collapsed. It happened in Maryland or near Maryland, near Baltimore.
And that's the other thing, the whole lack of conspiracy theories surrounding that. I don't know what to think about them. Some of them seem to have some good points. If somebody was going to attack our infrastructure, that would be a good thing to attack, something like that. There's lots of other targets too, but it's basically shut down that whole shipping port area, although they now have created some minor passages to get through. They've already cleared away some of the debris.
So the smaller ships can get through with an 11-foot draft, I believe. The main middle part has about a 50-foot draft for the really big ships. We have military ships that are trapped back there from the last I heard. So this is interesting.
So, is it a big conspiracy, some kind of a cyber attack, blah, blah, blah? I don't know. I haven't found anything credible enough to really be repeating a lot of stuff. Some people say, oh, it was a Ukrainian pilot, or what do they call it? Not a captain, but I don't know if it's a pilot, or I can't remember the proper word, but was controlling the ship. Oh, and there was two minutes of missing data on the recorders. Oh, there's this and that. They come to all these things, and there's a cyber attack, all the conspiracy theories. I don't buy an event until I can see some...
hard evidence of all that stuff. But anyway, they've got right on it. They've opened up, I think, two passages, two minor passages. The third one's going to take a lot longer. Now here's the situation based on my knowledge of having equipment burning cranes and so on. And I don't have experience in diving, but there's going to have to be a lot of underwater cutting and welding too. This is something that can be done. I've never done it, but this is something common in the industry to be able to cut steel.
using essentially torches or air arcing kind of thing underwater and welding underwater. If something is done, they know how to do it. So it's not like an impossibility. And so the images I've seen so far, I've only seen one where they're starting to cut this thing apart because they're going to have to basically cut the bridge apart with cutting torches, essentially is what they're going to have to do. The crane they brought, the biggest crane they have has about a 1,000 ton capacity.
That's not enough to lift up what's on the ship or what's in the water. You can't lift it up in one shot. You're going to have to cut it up in small enough pieces to be light enough and small enough to fit on the barges. They'll have it nearby with the scrap on. So they have to cut it up piece by piece with cutting torches. And the image I saw was with a couple men in a basket hanging from a crane cutting
Now, what they're going to have to do, there's probably several engineers on site at all times to make sure they're cutting this properly because you have a lot of twisted metal and metal that's under stress. So you just start cutting on it. It's under stress. You can have something shift on you or pop on you or majorly move and cause a huge problem and create injuries and even death. So there's probably a lot of structural engineers on site that should show exactly where to be cutting.
And it's going to have to be a very careful process to make sure nobody gets hurt in this. And they're using cutting torches hanging in a basket from a crane. But what's going to have to happen is they're going to have to have these bigger cranes holding onto this part that they're cutting or depending on the balance, because again, you're going to have to be carefully evaluate each cut. You're going to have to have an upward force on pieces of the section of bridge that they want to cut away.
So, a main crane is going to have to be lifting up the, putting some upward force to try to neutralize or even out the balances and stresses on that section they're cutting. And then they're going to have to have somebody else in another crane or ideally another barge with man-lit vacuums and they really need about 100 burners to do this. They can work on several areas at the same time. It's only, the limitation will be the number of
of ships you can get in there, barges, because of the cranes and the man lifts, that will be the limitation as far as how many guys you can get in there at one time. And you have to really- There is another limitation that you're not considering there, Craig. The cargo that was on board that spilled over that is leaking into the harbor, they're restricting the number of people that can be in the water to cut the bridge because of the toxic chemicals that are there.
And they haven't given a list of everything that's being dumped into the harbor right now. That's water. That's going to affect everything around it. They really haven't given a list of everything that has been dumped from that cargo manifest off the front of the ship yet.
Yeah, some containers, some shipping containers were ripped in half, some were dumped off the edge. I haven't seen the numbers of how many actually went into water, how many sank and how many floated away because frankly those things are pretty airtight and watertight. They'll float a long time depending on what the weight is inside them. They'll float a long time on the water. And I would presume that a lot of those have already been retrieved or redirected or something or anchored somehow. But anyway, I haven't seen those numbers. But here's another issue that's happening because
I don't have the experience of this. I've only read some articles because I didn't have an experience with underwater cutting or welding. I know it's been done routinely. The problem is there's been some sonar images now taken of the bridge and the part that's underwater isn't just resting on the bottom. It's resting in five feet of mud depending on where you're looking. It's sunk through mud. It's so heavy it just sank not only to the bottom but it sank through the bottom.
So that presents another huge challenge as far as cutting goes and retrieving because you're going to have to cut, there's no way you can cut the top all you want, but you're still going to have to cut those bottom beams that are buried in the mud. So they're going to have to figure out a way and you're not going to be able to lift it.
until they cut off pieces at a time at the edge. There's still going to have to be some other water cutting. Now there's things they can do to remove the mud and try to get divers in there, but that's going to be a really tedious and long job, a hard job to do. For the bigger pieces, they can't just be taken care of above the water line or even in the water.
We're talking about stuff that's buried under the mud. You can look online and you can see these sonar images of what they believe, how much of it is buried. And a huge part of it will cross that main section, the deepest part, is buried pretty deep in mud. So that presents another challenge for them. So yes. How deep is the water under that bridge where that bridge is buried?
They say it has about a 50-foot draft. In other words, a ship can't sink into the water more than 50 feet to go through that middle section of passage. Now, what I've heard is, what I've read online is that ship that, whatever the name is, the ship that did the damage, it actually has about a 48-foot draft. In other words, it's almost scraping the bottom as it goes through as it is.
And now it's been, because of the steel that's on the bow, it's actually pushed into the mud and that's why it hasn't moved any because of the weight of the bridge has actually sunk it into the mud a little bit. So yeah, 50 foot on the middle section. The other section is what I heard, you got about 11 feet of draft. So a ship that goes down to 11 feet below the water line, they can now passage.
through that section as long as they have the right width as well. They're allowing some ships through now in the parts they've already cleared. But the middle part is about 50 feet from what I'm reading. I heard that there's a number of Navy ships that are stuck in the port
behind the bridge and they call them something like fast movers or I can't remember the term but did you hear about that a number and they don't say what number they just said a nut and I read it on ABC News this morning a number of Navy ships and I forget what they call them something like sound like fast some fast ships or something you heard about that I have
I already mentioned that and I don't know the number but I heard a number. I don't know the number but yeah there's some Navy ships that are trapped or at least work. They may have already been able to get out. I don't know. They'll notice status. Okay. Sorry for being so... I had to step away so I missed what you were saying about that. Thank you. Yeah and then there's of course...
I'm here in Michigan, I'm hearing a lot in the news about how automotive industry is going to be suffering because apparently a lot of the imports come in through there and a lot of parts come in through there. They're having to redirect things. Plus, there were more than a dozen ships. When this happened...
There's a dozen ships that we're basically trying to get in. So they're all having to redirect through New York or from some other area down to Savannah, Charleston, all the areas where they're... not Savannah, but all the other areas where they're having to redirect and that's going to cost a lot more money. If you talk about increased prices of things, inflation, they talk about disruptions of supplies. This would be a logical thing to hit if there was any sort of terrorist attack.
Now that would be a logical thing to hit or if we were involved in a war, infrastructure like this or dams, bridges, ports, there's a lot of things that would be hit like this. So this is going to be relatively minor since it's only the one. But imagine if we were at war with some country and they started hitting all these places at once. We could be really screwed. I'm looking at possible. We are at war with the country. The US. Well, yeah. We're at war with the DC.
And we're trying to get into war with Israel and Ukraine, with Israel and with Ukraine. Yeah, get in bed with them right. Yeah. We're paying for their wars. Now they want to send our boys there.
So yeah, the whole thing, and I'll give you my five minute summary of Ukraine and Israel, and probably a lot of you already know this. Ukraine's already lost the war, but we're trying to give them, I don't know, $60 billion more or whatever. We're trying to give them more money, and that's just going to go, most of that's going to go to our industrial military complex to build more weapons. They want to get to them for damn near a year, if it even gets to them at all.
And the rest of the money is going to keep their government running. But you can't, unless we're sending more men, that's their biggest problem. Ukraine is out of people. Now they just recently, I think I heard on the news yesterday, they increased or decreased the conscription age of young men that have to go to war now in Ukraine. They don't have the people. You can't just make more people. Billions of dollars and they're going to give you more people.
And Russia has virtually unlimited supply compared to Ukraine. Ukraine, they're sending them into the meat-riner and they're being killed and they don't have replacements. They don't have enough of them. Now they're had to lower the age, the conscription age, so now more men are going to be going into that meat-riner. So that's their biggest problem. It's not money. It's all the money in the world. If they don't have the people to use them and people trained to use them, there's all these weapons that we're supposedly eventually going to send. Nothing's going to help. There's not going to be any change in this war.
Of course this attack on the concert, we've heard a lot of conspiracy theories about that, how we might be involved and blah blah blah. I don't know the truth of it yet. Time will tell. I don't put it past us. We get involved in any damn thing. Anything they can do to get us involved in war with Iran or China or Russia, we're doing it. Everything in the world they can think of, they're trying to find an excuse for us to go to war with all these places.
I'm going on to Israel, of course, now Gaza, because several things have happened here recently that have just...
The world is starting to really scream at what's going on in Israel and Gaza, but nobody's doing anything about it other than the Houthi doing what they can. And then, well, of course, South Africa filing lawsuits, basically, against them for genocide. Remember, they were supposed to have 30 days to come up with a plan showing how they were going to kill civilians, but nothing ever came of that. Just like this latest hit on the aid workers, the gut.
basically killed seven aid workers from various countries.
got hit, killed by guided bombs, they knew exactly what they were hitting, and the outcome was actually exactly what they had hoped for. Now no aid's going in, or very little aid. Because that corporation decided, well, we can't do this anymore. Because there's been about 200 aid workers that have been killed. Over 100 reporters that have been targeted. This is all war crimes that Israel is doing and getting away with. And Biden says he's terrified, and let me see if I can find the quote, because it was funny, this, he, so he, this,
quote from Biden says he is outraged by the attack on an aid convoy after military after Israel's military says it was a mistake. Oh no it wasn't mistake it was done in purpose and we can you can pretty much guarantee that the precision bombs more than one on a convoy that was very clearly marked that they were informed that we're going to be in the area before it happened.
And of course, the reason that I believe they did it is to try to, all you aid people need to go away. We need to start these people out. We can't have having aid coming in and all the problems that cause us. We just need, we're trying to start them out. Leave us alone so we can kill all these Palestinians. That's what's going on. And they're trying to get us involved because nowadays they struck an Iranian target, an embassy, or...
something similar to an embassy, I don't think it was an embassy, but something in Lebanon, I believe it was the Lebanon, it killed some high-ranking Iranian officials. And so they're trying to invoke it. I ran into strike Israel so that we get involved in this war because we got aircraft carriers off the coast at some point. We're going to be sitting ducks with some of this modern technology we have. Aircraft carriers are not
your friend in these instances. That's why they parked so far away in the main terrain because you're sitting ducks there. Hello. We're in. We are. We are off the coast here. We have a whole battle group that sitting off the coast. It is real right now.
Yeah, but if you look where they are, they're actually quite a long ways. They're like halfway into the Mediterranean. They're not right near Israel. It's going to take them a while to get there. They've had to move away because they were being attacked. They claimed they were being attacked by, oh, come on, drones from one militia group just said their name.
The one aircraft carrier had to use his anti-air defense guns because they were being attacked by drones. So they carried them farther off the coast. But they were right there.
And their missiles and such, the Houthi are using, are pretty low-tech compared to what Iran can send our way. And so we're looking at a potential problem. Our administration is trying everything they can do to get us into a war and not make it look like we're trying to get into a war. But although, how can you be outraged by this attack on the aid, the aid convoy, with all these weapons that were being fired, our weapons?
How can you help me be outraged at that? Because all Biden need to do is make a phone call and say no more aid, no more weapons, you're on your own FUD. DB's gotta go. That would be Biden and Blinken. Anyway, that's my show for today. Thank you everybody for listening. Until next time.
He took off his three cornered hat and speaking low to me said, we fought a revolution to secure our liberty. We wrote the Constitution as a shield from tyranny. For future generations this legacy we gave. In this the land of the free and home of the brave. The freedoms we secured for you we hoped you 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 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 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 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 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'll fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear and be a slave? O sons of the Republic, arise. Take a stand. Defend the Constitution, the supreme law of the land.
Preserve our great republic and each god given right and pray to god keep the torch of freedom burning bright As i awoke he vanished in the mist from whence he came His words were true we are not free but we have ourselves to blame For even now as tyrants trampled each god given right we only watch and tremble too afraid to stand and fight
If he stood by your bedside in a dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he fought to keep, what would be your answer if he called out from the grave, build the land of the free? Ladies and gentlemen, this is the evening. The Intelligence Report time, our corny. One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters. Both on and behind the lines in occupied territories.
Southwest, Northeast, and... Ladies and gentlemen, you're listening to us on www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com, libertytreeradio.org. We're on satellite. It was a high-dollar merchant rate operators, including those people who were behind the bridge and the ship, probably on land now, some of you. We're also in a myriad of other communications technologies, both inside...
and outside these United States. It is Wednesday. It's the end of Wednesday. It's the third hour for the intel report and it is the third of April. It is 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 dance of swords. And you're also listening to us on WBCQ, the planet 6.160, regular shortwave. And it is weapons Wednesday. First of all, real quick, again, remember the deals on AR-15 mags. And I really looked around today again too, and I didn't see anything jumping out any better than these right now.
I hope we'll have Dave Stone back up with us here tonight still. We'll see what happens. Battlehawkarmory.com. $6.99 a mag, $7.
30 round black second to amend Gen 2 AR-15 magazines for $6.99 and that is at BattleHawkArmory.com. The second is 2A, the numeral, Arabic numeral 2, the letter A and then warehouse, W-A-R-E-H-O-U-S dot com.
to a warehouse.com and they have PMAGs for $7.99 a piece, which is also a good price. Considering there's half a dozen others, I can find those at $11 a piece right now. The same mag. So $8 is a good price. I'll throw a penny in there. So $7.99. Let's say $8. That's good.
That is a good price. If you're interested, again, that is over at 2Awarehouse.com. That's numeral two, as in the Arabic numeral two. A-W-A-R-E-H-O-U-S-E, 2Awarehouse.com. And again, take the time. Go check those out, see what else they have in the way of deals, and finish your loadout on your ARs.
Since we're on ARs for a moment, and it is Weapons Wednesday, Bear Creek Arsenal has got some really good buys for under $200 for AR-15 uppers. Now it's a mix, but there are even some 450 Bushmaster uppers for under $200. And as I've said before, you want the whole collection of golf clubs in your golf bag. 556 or 223 Wild slash take your pick.
In addition to that, 300 blackout and then 762 by 39, which is readily available at Bear Creek. They got some goodbyes on those right now, including short, short barrels, because I can't stop you from buying those. But again, whatever you're going to do, take the time, check out the inventory, but they have 450 Bushmaster and 300 blackout.
Really, if you're going to spend one time, you can cherry pick from the deals that they have right now and cover all your bases. Now, another thing, they've got a big sale on AR-10 uppers. 18-inch, 20-inch, 22-inch, and 24-inch, and all of them are cheaper. It is a better choice. Again, go take a look to see what they have.
If you, I will say this, for the fastest turnaround of all the weapons that you can buy, right now picking up a AR-10 to pick up a .308 main battle rifle of some kind, not only can you get .308 but you got .243 win, .22-250, there's a bunch of different barrels available in addition to the .762x51 NATO standard. So you want to go take a look.
If you already have an AR-10 and it's in .308, 5762 by 51 NATO, you might want to look to see into one of those .243 wins because .243 is a massive, massive following across the country. You can go anywhere and pretty much find .243 for sale. And you find it in a lot of yard sales, just like .270, but .243 is a shorter cartridge. Remember, .270 is basically a neck down, out six.
Whereas the .243 is more in the basic length of the .062x51 NATO round. So the neat thing is it was very easy to adapt over. Now the .22-250 is a laser rifle. But my problem with that is they've got the .556-223, the .22 bore covered with an AR-15 upper.
Personally, if you want to go with the 22250, it is one of the other for as long as I've been alive almost. But one of the many go-to cartridges here in Michigan. 22250 here in Michigan has a massive following. So much so that federal, when they used to have the fall hunting season sales, one of the six sale chamberings that they always had in the sales boxes with federal was 22250.
There's other Calibers that have come and gone you know different different cartridges But 22 250 has hung in there and has been pretty popular across the board and it is a laser rifle cartridge So it is a good choice Before we go any farther do we have any colors? I don't want anybody out because I know everyone's a while to get talking I know So just to be safe Okay, very good next. Well, actually, I'm gonna let somebody else use some talking and mentor Edward if you could
the latest guns and gadgets. We have not played a guns and gadgets in the three hours and we were on subjects that were actually needed to be talked about so we don't have a problem there. But if we could, the latest guns and gadgets. You go over to YouTube guys, guns and gadgets. Jared has been doing this for quite some time now. Good connections. He's done a really great job of keeping up on things and I highly recommend.
that you take the time, go over there, watch the videos, give everything a thumbs up, and also subscribe. While I'm talking to you, I'm winding up my French night bomber clock, my Swiss French World War I night bomber clock, which keeps phenomenal time. Well, of course, it's a Swiss chronometer. So anyway, it's kind of fun because that's my clock, reliable, when everything else fails, an old
130 year old Swiss clock.

He submitted new gun control measures to the city council, like I said, in violation of Georgia's preemption law. What does that mean first? Well, he and city council literally cannot pass any ordinance like he's submitting because the state law does not grant them the authority to do that. Local governments cannot pass ordinances that are more restrictive
then the state laws on firearms in Georgia already are. So, they do try to pass it, they'll... and they're dumb enough to put it in, in... into effect, they'll get sued and they will lose. It's pretty... you know, cut and dry, black and white. Now, what is he trying to pass? Well, the mayor claims... Listen to this though. The mayor claims that 244 guns were stolen from cars last year in 2023. Of those...
203 were from unlocked vehicles. He says so far in 2024 that 69 guns have been stolen from vehicles with 56 of those coming from unlocked cars. Now, as a result, Johnson is asking the city council to amend Chapter 9 of the City of Savannah's code
to add these new firearms security offenses offenses offenses and they are offensive the first one would require all fire up all his and dealers to report firearms thefts to the savannah police department the second ordinance submitted uh... would require people to lock their firearms in a locked container in a vehicle when part and not make them visible
Whenever you mention that G word, people really get upset. And in the time that you could take to call my office and complain about it, you could lock your gun up. Now, like I said, he'd be violating state law and casting these ordinances, but these gun controllers are after one thing and that's to disarm you, the law-abiding citizen. I also have a serious question for my brothers and sisters in Savannah. Are there that many people
Who secure actually shouldn't use that word. Let's let's do it this way. Are there that many people in Savannah that are leaving their guns in their cars and if so not Lock the gun in a in something in the car and then leave the car unlocked Really? Are there that many people if there are you're helping the anti gunners get their narrative like
This is mind-blowing these numbers. That's a boatload of people who are being, let's say, less than responsible with firearms. Now, I'm gonna stop you right now, because some people who might live in Savannah or somewhere else, right now, their hair is on fire and their eyes are bleeding, and rather than say, you know, these people should lock their stuff up or be responsible, take the gun with you. Jared, I can't believe you're saying that. Yeah, I'm not in favor of a law forcing people to do anything with their lawfully owned items.
But, for crying out loud, if there are 244 guns stolen from vehicles in a single month, then these people should know damn well that they're in an area that's considered a high crime area and use their frickin' dome piece and not leave a gun easily accessible to criminals.
criminals are gonna do what they want and if they know that you are armed or you have a gun and you're just like, eh, I'm just gonna throw it on the seat or I'm just gonna put it in this glove box and let people watch me do it and not lock it up. Now that's again obviously assuming, and I don't like to assume because it makes an ass out of you and me, but assuming these numbers reported are accurate, that would be coming from the fire, not the fire department, from the police department,
uh... that i've got all of the people almost three other people india guns for a lot of cars a lot well eight prime of the series issue mayor and the law-abiding near the maybe may have maybe messed up a better stuff going but who stole it number one uh... too guys and gals like do a little better be better and every three we are getting new laws they're just looking
for a means to an end. They want to take your guns and if you give them every ample opportunity then they're going to utilize that opportunity. They're going to go after that weakness. So hopefully people in Savannah like hit the lock button or you know turn the key to lock the car, set an alarm, throw it in a box, you can get one at $6.99 for $6.99 at Walmart, lock it. Cable goes around the seat post.
Take it with you. You're gonna do something other than, hey, Mr. McCriminal, putting my gun under my seat and I'm gonna leave the car unlocked. So we'll see what happens. I just wanted to bring this to you. Literally, got home, drove all day from Nashville, went and grabbed lunch, came right down to record this because I saw this story while I was eating. Crazy, crazy, crazy. Savannah, Georgia. Mayor's gonna violate the law, the state law, to violate your rights.
because some people are being less than ideal in handling a firearm. Let me know what you think down below. Am I out of my tree? Maybe, maybe not. I don't know. Maybe I just spent too much time around legislators. Oh, by the way, Tennessee, you got a big problem. And we're going to be talking about that as we go along. You have a... We. We have a big problem in our legislature. Leadership of the Senate hates your gun rights. The Colonel of the State Police, who I was shoulder to shoulder with,
hates your gun rights. He actually testified that he was afraid of guns. We can hear more on that one. Have a great day, subscribe to the channel. I'll keep you in the loop every single day. Take care.
Something about the numbers that he said, what is the most common vehicle to have a firearm? Well, in southern states or most states, a pickup truck. No, no. Police officers. How much you want to bet a majority of those thefts were from squad cars? Well, you know, that was a problem Detroit had and the numbers were ridiculously high. Like they lost over
They say they lost. This is the problem with, again, if it's the cop cars. Well over, what was it? 10,900 and some weapons lost of all types. From the back of everything from squad cars to traffic, way officers, scales officers. And also even the SWAT unit, one of the SWAT teams lost two MP5s.
They lost an HK93, they lost a whole pile of pistols. In fact, about the same week as when Mayor Coleman's, this is years ago, but Mayor Coleman's limo was stolen right out of the Renaissance Center Garage while the governor and the mayor were in the building. And in the car were a couple of MP5s, a whole pile of pistols and a couple of sawed off shotguns.
So yeah, when you think that, well, cops couldn't lose that much, I've already said before, they always buy more guns than they need, but they do lose a lot of weapons or conveniently lose. I mean, if you think that Juan and Wergay from over the border are the only ones that are gun runners, guys, big cops, ATF, ATF have had shootouts over guns they were stealing from the armories in the federal buildings.
Just in case you don't remember I would kind of covered that years ago One bat faggot had an arm full of guns and apparently a box of stuff They got in the elevator the other bat faggot got in looked at what he saw it looked at what he had and said hey That's the stuff. I was gonna take home and Basically they had a close quarter gun battle while the elevator was going down Which would have been kind of cool to watch from inside the elevator well where there's no light because you could have that swiss cheese lighting effect
So yeah, it wouldn't be the first time. And by the way, I will remind you that there's a lot of guns the cops lose because they were drop guns. Now they won't report those. So if the cop shop is losing as many weapons, it's a big city. So that sounds like a lot, but you got virtually, you may have a couple thousand, I don't know, three, 4,000 cops. Savannah is a pretty good sized city, but it may only be about 2,400, could be a little higher, a little lower.
But have stuff like that disappear, yep, as likely as not. So it would have said absolutely, Detroit, Pontiac, Michigan had the same problem. Lansing, Michigan had the same problem, and that's up here up north, okay? So I guarantee it's the same problem and will always be the same problem because the most common source for, let's just say procured items.
is out of property rooms. That includes drugs that are reused or resold over and over again. You know what I mean? And I will point out that when I've done as many thousands of court cases as I have, the first thing that disappears from a property room during a court case is the gun that might be or might not be in the case.
What I mean by that is the guns logged in it was on the property it may not have been involved in the crime But they added it and they put it on the books and then strangely enough the only people who get into the police property room are the cops the lawyers and they have prostitutes specifically and maybe the judges So who would be stealing stuff from the property rooms? Well the cops and the prosecutors
Both might have horrible drug habits that they need to take care of or they're just greedy. So again, pay attention. Absolutely right on that one. And again, you should lock stuff up anyway. I mean, that's a basic rule. If you're not there using it, you should secure it. But that's just me because if you make it too difficult to get to and you're headed back to your car and the zombie is right behind you and you get into the car and you shut the door and you think that window is going to slow them down,
But the zombies beating on the window and breaking through and you're trying to figure out how to unlock the lockbox. You got the gun in under the seat or in between the two seats, depending on how you set the lockbox up. Fumble, fumble, fumble. And the zombie feasts swell. Just something to think about. So again, that's where you have to balance it out.
Another thing here real quick, and again, Guns and Gadgets, he mentioned Tennessee, there is a bunch of stuff going on. The latest argument is that that is the state that the invaders are focusing on right now, the illegal aliens. That is the next target state for mass dumping coming in from outside the United States by the ring knockers.
I would also point out if you haven't seen it, but has anybody seen the pissing and moaning by the people of Denver? And by the Denver communists who all said they were a sanctuary city and that Colorado was a sanctuary state. Yes, they're great leftists, they're wonderful leftists, they're super leftists. And now that they got what they wanted, they're trying to ship them out to other cities. Go to New York, go to Los Angeles, they actually are telling them this.
And it's like, but wait, stop. You wanted this. Well, what's wrong, goose-stepping hammer and sickle crowd? It's like Martha's Vineyard. Oh, yeah, we're sanctuary. Oh, God, they showed up. They took us seriously. Oh, quick, grab the buses, get the rats out of here quick, get the rats out. Oh, they're like cockroaches. And Martha's Vineyard smiling and waiting.
Shipped all of those poor positos that had shown up because they were sure that Martha's vineyard with all of the money with all of this and topples and pesos that they have They would be willing to share their wealth because they want to be good communists They want to be good communists without any responsibility and you are supposed to be the one paying for it Exactly what happens so anyway, let's see next
before we go any farther. Also, somebody's asked, wait a minute, hold on here. Hold on, things are acting up. Okay, first of all, the ammunition I mentioned, the 9 millimeter deals, about 20.4 cents around, and I think 22.4 or 5 cents around, 22.5 cents.
For 9 millimeter parabellum over at classic firearms comm I did not check what during the break I was too busy working on stuff in the greenhouse real quick and I had to put some more nuts bolts and screws into a steel project I had to handle it sit a little bit until I could settle some things with another steel cut got a Little bit of a divot I got to make in that but in the meantime didn't you back to the computer? So as far as I know
If you go over to classicfirearms.com, the 9mm ammo is still there. They also had, and this is because I see your question here, 45 long Colt. And I believe it's almost all the 45 long Colt they're making right now is cowboy ammo. In fact, even if you buy as a sub note, if you buy one of these cowboy 45s or unit one of these 45 long Colt pistols that have been made over the last
Well, or long as they've been making pistols. There are a bunch of Black Hawks in 45 long colt. 44 Magnum, 45 long colt, 357 Magnum. Black Hawk 2s, of course, actually they opened that up into a few more calibers. You will even find 41 Magnum Black Hawks, by the way. Single action, Rugers, mix of length barrel.
Suited I like at least a 6-inch 6-inch on a on a Ruger Blackhawk Very comfortable gun to shoot. I've had almost every model of that gun Including the first model which by the way member has the hammer safety consideration Which is just like any of the old colts and it's funny that Ruger did that too because they knew when they did that
But you used to be able to send the Blackhawks in. If you've got an old Blackhawks, don't you dare do that. If you get an inherited handgun, never, never, never take it to a gunsmith. What? No, never, because what will happen is they'll run it on paperwork and it'll be papered to your name. If you have a bunch of grandpa guns or dad guns and you are Uncle Bob guns that you got inherited to you, that were gifted to you, don't you dare ever take them to a gunsmith.
Sadly enough, it used to be right now with the communist states the way they are, Michigan's no difference with the commie twits here. You want to keep all these weapons as secure and off the paper and deeper into the woods, if at all possible. If you're older and you're gonna pass away, make sure that again, they go to a family member who will appreciate it. Then you got three generations removed. In other words, you gotta blame great grandpa instead of grandpa.
for where the guns came from and well, I'm gonna take it to the grave and grandpa already took it to the grave. So nobody has a clue that you have them. So if you're a smart adult, you won't show anybody and you won't tell anybody, but you've got a fine collection of weapons. And it used to be if you had the first model Blackhawk that you could send it to Ruger. But if you do send it to Ruger, you gotta go through an FFL, the bullshitter will have to pay for it. We know the bat faggots are coming in and just taking pictures of everything illegally, so they're violating the law constantly.
So no, there's no privacy at the FFL. And he's gonna send it to Ruger. You think Ruger is gonna be a good company to send to? I don't have very much faith in most big, big companies, but no, I don't have any faith in Ruger. They're great for their service support, but in this day and age, no, Ruger's here sold their soul a long time ago. In fact, they sold their soul when the original Ruger by name by owner was in charge of the company.
However, the Blackhawks, what else is out there? Well, of course, in 45 Long Cold, it can be any one of the Cowboy guns, most all Colt, but every of, their variations, Smith and Wesson top breaks and the 45 Long Colt, and the Cowboy Master pistol class, all take a standard lead bullet. Remington, even for as long as I can remember, for the most part, when they produce 45 Long Cold, even in the old red and yellow, the green and yellow boxes.
And before that, typically stuck with a heavy, full-led, round-nose, flat-faced projectile. It may have a little bit of a flat face, but it's not a hollow point, it's not a jacketed round. 99% of the time, they produced a standard cowboy load because of the number of colts that are out there. So pretty much...
All the factory ammo you're gonna run into is going to be within spec and safe to shoot in your weapon. However, do pay attention if you got something that's an odd man out company. Fiacci made some 45 long colt for a while way back. I think it was in the late 80s into the early 90s. I don't know if they're still making it, but I know that cowboy guns are popular in Italy. And even for those people who have guns in France,
single-action revolvers are very common for the people who can still own them, which is very few and far between. But because of that, the Europeans typically load their traditionally. Now, they kind of caught up with this because they even make plus P and P plus P plus. But in the traditional cartridges, the reason that they built them is because of the number of guns that were made as copies overseas originally. And before that, obviously,
the American counterparts if you could afford them in Europe, which we got to remember that's an exotic in Europe that would be unique so they were expensive. The other consideration though that's cool is most European pistol loads were typically 200 feet per second slower in velocity per cartridge. I don't care what it is. In fact, when the Comanche and other revolvers came into service from
the different European, the Comanche was one of several. There were 44 Magnum endframes. You know what happened? Because those guns came into the country. If you look, Remington dropped the spec load for 44 Remington out of the box, 44 Remington mag, down by 200 feet per second also, dropping the cup pressure and everything else. Why? Because they had to accommodate a new family of weapons and they did not want to have to worry about liability issues.
So, in fact, how can I prove this? Well, if you go to an ammo, a gun show and find an ammo dealer who's got old boxes laying around, you might, I would point out that if you read the box on the end cap, it will tell you what cartridge, what bullet weight, and it will also tell you what the velocity out of the standard spec rifle, or rifle, for that cartridge would be. And if you look at the dates, if you know how to date what it is you're looking at, you'll see what I'm talking about.
It's funny that you know ammunition in the older Remington pattern box and 44 Magnum was hotter and faster Hotter is in more pressure energy applied Does that mean that the old the new ones are bad? The cartridges work just fine paying bang pop pop boom boom. They'll do their job But 45 long cold again over at collectors Classic firearms calm god. I had collectors on my mind because there's something else I was gonna mention, but I don't have the notes in front of me
classicfirearms.com, classicfirearms.com, classicfirearms.com, it's Weapons Wednesday, we haven't done this once yet, Ed. If you could, our traditional, well, late as always, I always think about it, by the time we get to this spot right here, bottom of the hour, break.
In our valley there's danger, and there's danger in our hills. Oh, here you're not the singer of the view, though wild and free. Well, soon you'll know there's a girl of the rifle from the tree. Oh, the rifle, oh, the rifle, in our hands, the proof notes right bones.
You may ride a goodly speed, you may know a stern a master Your forward march with speed, but you'll learn the back-spunch faster When you meet our mountain boys And their leader George Starp Glad you make what little noise and always hit the mark Hold the rifle, hold the rifle In our hands we'll prove Noah's rifle
Make sure again, aim low, go slow.
hits, hits, misses, don't. And even if you're using automatic fire, start low. I will point out just as an example with the M2, M3 carbine. This is the select fire version of the M1 carbine made for Korea and used extensively both in Korea and Vietnam and all the activities in between and beyond.
That although a 30-round mag is what you see a lot of the guys especially carrying very common But they had more trouble with the 30-round mag in an M1 than you might imagine half the time But that doesn't mean I'm gonna get rid of any 30 round mags I might have for a carbine But the 15 routers and a select fire gun was about perfect Especially if you had someone that didn't have as much time on the rifle to actually develop skills with it
And aim basically for the ankle and pull the trigger and just hold it and 15 rounds faster than I can say it but you would stitch a person from bottom to top hitting them in a lot of places just keep it locked down the target and recoil alone brings the muzzle up in select fire and what happens is 11 out of 15 typically on the on the body that's
like getting hit with a 12 gauge buck round double-lock. Okay? And in other words, you pull the trigger and boom, you get all that shock trauma. Well, the select fire, the shock trauma is just the one round behind the other little bit, but not by much. So you get the same basic effect. With 110 grain bullet out of carbine or a 30 caliber pellet out of a 12 gauge with what, eight, seven, eight, or nine pellets in double-lock buck.
Do the math. Figure it out. Works just fine either way. But again, the 15 rounders, they work. That's one of the ways to compensate, but aim low, go slow. If you're going to start dumping a lot of rounds on a single target, start low. And remember that even if you miscalculate it and a bullet hits the ground, if the bullet ricochets up and scuds into the target, that'll kill somebody.
Or at the very least horribly wound. Don't forget also that the word billiard balls comes to mind and even if you hit another object like a piece of stone and that stone is then pushed up into the target. Guys, a rock of whatever weight traveling at about 2,000 feet per second. Remember it's like when you hit a white ball against a colored ball on a billiard table, you get the same energy transfer. It was a little but not much.
So, that rock traveling at, you know, 1,600 to 2,000 feet per second, maybe only the size of your thumbnail, is going to mess you up. It will hurt you just as bad, maybe worse in some ways, because, you know, it's an obscure object in a weird configuration and you don't know how it's going to affect the body when it hits it or what its path is, although typically it will be the path of least resistance.
This is something you were taught on the range years ago, especially when the pop-up target, which I'm pretty sure is still being used to some degree or another, but the basic pop-up target at great range. It's the idea it didn't make any difference as long as that target went down. Did you kill it? Well, maybe not. But you horribly, horribly, horribly wounded the target, and that's just as good as the kill for putting the target out of active service. So, again,
Another thing to remember here very quickly when it comes to training in mass is you have to simplify the training but keep the training focused, quote unquote, on target, pardon the pun, right? Let's see, real quick here. Also, one more time, on that 45 long cold, yeah, lead is, if you're reloading into whatever you want, but still, I would say middle spec, if you're gonna shoot a 45 long cold or mag them a lot,
I would dial down a little bit because for training you're gonna get all the basic muscle memory that you need. With regard to contact sports, when you get to the point where you're deploying a weapon system with handguns, especially in revolvers, you can ratchet the load back up. In fact, you can go a little beyond spec, the pistol will easily handle it, don't go crazy. It'll be bad enough, it'll be dirty hairy enough just in standard load.
Let's see, another thing real quick. Oh, yeah. Well, yeah, exactly. Yes, the Black Hawk Piscals, basically the 22s or any of the center fire. Now, number one, if it's .357 Magnum, it'll fire all 38 special all day. There are change-out cylinders for the .44 Magnum to, no, you don't have to, it's .44 special.
There we go. And that button for, for instance, 45 long cold. Yes, there are cylinder changeouts for 45 ACP. And if you have the Black Hawk in 22, you may already have it was very popular Ruger sold God knows how many of these that have a 22 Magnum cylinder. So you can go either way, which was great because it's another caliber that you can run on the gun. And if you run out of one, you might run into the other may not get much because 22.
Winchester Magnum, .22 rimfire magnum is pretty popular, but it's going to be used a lot. It's actually a devastating round. So again, but it is still an option. .22 long rifle, .22 rimfire magnum, and then again .45 long Colt and .45 ACP. And yes, you can use any of the .45 ACP bullets in reloading the .45 long Colt.
Of course, there's a wider spec or heavier spec in lead projectile, full length lead projectile. Next, I want to review this real quick. We got 15 minutes, so I'm going to do a short version when I was talking about the two hour block and get it all in. Number one, air defense tactical close. With the advent of the droneatoids, the nematode slash the hemorrhoids, you know, drones, RC toys, close quarter combat with those close contact combat is being demonstrated all the time.
They're bragging enough, look what we can do with a drone. Well, boom, look what I can do with a 12 gauge or 10 gauge. First of all, what's the inventory of weapons available for close area air defense that you're gonna have to be taking a look at? Number one, shotguns. I'm dead cold serious. America's flush in shotguns. Bird barrel, bird guns are best. Don't forget you've got goose gun weapons that have a longer barrel and they're both in 12.
10 gauge and 10 gauge is phenomenal. Of course, it's also great if you swing the barrel down at personnel level and pull the trigger. But in the goose guns, these are designed to reach farther, longer barrels, a little more cumbersome in that respect. Yes, if for instance the last big 10 that I know that was made in good production numbers is the Ithaca goose gun. It's basically a blown up on steroids Ithaca model 37.
very popular in 10 gauge when it was out there. A lot of people cut them down and made them into sewer pipe street sweepers. They cut the barrel down 20 inches. I wouldn't do that, but that's just me. And again, there are a lot of newer, more modern guns that are alloy or lightweight because they're stamped.
And for carrying an auxiliary weapon for air defense like this, that's not a bad thing. Also, it means that your flip time from port to station on shoulder is a little faster, lighter than gun, easier to bring into service. In theory, application may be another thing. But in addition to that, microwave shoulder fired systems.
Now, every house has a microwave just about in this country. This is why I told you before to grab all of the microwaves people are putting out by the curb or if you go to the scrap yard, you can buy them. Why? I'm not caring about the containment system being compromised because I'm going to take the guts out of that microwave system. The microwave tube can be used for doing an EMP slash microwave strike.
It's like an EMP strike and microwave strike on an RC toy on these drones. And it's very simple design, very easy to produce in good quantity, and it can all be 100% home built, okay? Now, because we understand this threat, the other weapons solution is a dirty open transmitter.
Now why? Well because again remember these are two way transmission systems on board a toy or even a mid-sized piece of equipment. Because they can be identified, signal generators like this can be used like area landmines. They literally will blow out, they will disrupt any signal, but they'll disrupt all signal.
They won't just disrupt the frequency that the drone is operating on. All radio equipment, television equipment, and even other pieces of, say, navigational equipment will be affected by a frequency generator like this. You open up all the finals, you take off all the filters, and it goes all up and down the scale. And for a set distance, depending on how much power you can put into that signal generator, you're gonna get that much more bloom of malfeasance.
When I was buying government models of this, and I think we have probably, I was thinking after I mentioned this during the program, I think we have about 42 of these. I used to get them for $10 apiece over at the Fed auction. Typically, the base models were typically 60 watt out of the box, ready to roll, and built like a brick doghouse. They're built like an industrial welder, okay?
But they're also, the others, later models, were 125 watts. And in both cases, or I should say both models, these are especially effective at screwing with all of the microchip and especially soft circuit systems. What I mean by soft circuit is the new microcircuitry. It's incredibly weak when it comes to being hit with power, with overwhelming energy, okay?
Now, in addition to this, there's two other things. We need to be able to see and hear. See and hear, well, actually mostly hear. But now we want to track. But we, in other words, we have these options in terms of ways to defend ourselves. The shotgun has the shortest range. The microwave shoulder fired device has the middle range. And the open transmitter, the dirty open transmitter, not a transceiver.
is your overlapping umbrella that pretty well reaches farther than you can see. And so it creates an area of control. But remember, with the signal generator, you do not place it on your position. Why? Well, it's a bullet magnet.
Okay, the moment that you turn something like that on, AWACS, anything else out there that's electronic countermeasures or electronic surveillance and countermeasures is going to be connected to counter battery operations to strike a target of that type. So, what you want to do is make sure that you bait the gunner. You know when you turn this on that it's going to have an effect, that it's going to draw fire.
Well, you are at least distracting also and wasting what could have been artillery fire that could have been used for some of their activity. But I guarantee that they will prioritize commitment to counter battery activity against the signal generator. You want multiples, they need to be cheap, they're easily built, they're very crude and rude because you're not trying to do anything sophisticated.
But they are incredibly effective at neutralizing all signal activity in an area. So if you wanted to destroy a special warfare unit or a group coming in, you take the signal generator and activate it and no communications. Now I will say this, your communications won't work either, but their communications won't work and they're coming in and you control the territory.
So, one of the many tools that they're planned on using is neutralized immediately, especially when operating against secret police. That's where this technology is especially useful. Next is we got to find them. Number one, frequency counters. Frequency counters can be had in any quality variant and size you want.
But most will go all up and down the radio spectrum and cover everything from the basement to the ceiling in terms of from top to bottom. It may have blanked out areas which you have to determine based upon doing a little research on the models. But frequency counters are especially effective at directing fires based upon advanced information on ACK aircraft approaching, in this case, drones.
Why? It might be because they're a transceiver unit. Hold on, caller. Now, before I go any farther, I want to get one more thing in here that I didn't cover in the other hour. So hold on. After the frequency counters, wolf sears, or basically, again, something that everybody probably has plagued with. No, not all of you, but at one time or another, you have a parabolic dish. You create a collector horn station for a pickup mic.
You run that back to a electronic device that allows you to hook up a set of earphones actually do it direct with a blue battery pack and What you have is a directional listening device Now in an air defense mode. This is one of the many ways you're gonna hear that Okay much farther out than if you did bare-eared why because these collectors are much more efficient and sensitive That's the one thing that all these items are cheap by comparison
to the number of targets that can be destroyed for the cost. Okay, so remember, number one, frequency counters, many different type out there. Grainger has frequency counters. The Chinese offer frequency counters. You can get American made frequency counters. Trust me, that technology off the shelf. And the listening post, observation post technology, all of it is especially useful in this particular threat environment. Go ahead and call her, jump in there, please.
Yeah, text mics. Yeah, on the frequency counters, I've been looking at some of them just to see the prices on Amazon, and they go anywhere from less than $20 all the way up to over $1,000. I mean, if I'm looking at them, which one should I be more of the mid-range price, or the cheap one will do?
Well experiment because you see the cheap ones the cheap one simply it's a matter of sensitivity The components it's a lesser a softer piece of equipment. It's not probably not going to take as much bouncing. That's why it's cheaper They went minimal and again, they're using microchip technology just like everybody else is The other pieces of equipment typically are paying for a combination of sensitivity and pretty oh in virtually all Collection ranges up and down the dial
Number two is it's been ruggedized and ruggedizing is especially critical because that cheaper one don't bounce it too much, don't drop it too much. I have, in fact, hopefully we're gonna be ultimately busy tomorrow, but if I'm lucky tonight, I'll pull out an example of three of the basic frequency counters that are off the shelf that are about average for what we could use.
I paid no more than $130 for the, I think, the most expensive. And I think at the time, I did buy one of the cheap, cheap ones and they work. They're just not as sensitive, but they can be improved by adding another rabbit ear. The cheaper ones, there's a little trick there. You go to one of the radio supplies and you can pick up replacement antennas and actually create a dual rabbit ear and use it in a V form as a collector.
That's a trick for the cheap ones. But you don't really need to spend $1,000, but obviously you should, in theory, get what you pay for. So in other words, you're going to get more efficient collection potential. You're going to be able to adjust for greater range and nuance. In other words, micro splitting up and down the dial.
If I were really, really, really concerned about absolutely identifying a threat frequency, then I might spend the most money available. But here's the way I look at it. When I scan an area, and I look over, like I've always tell everybody here, if I scan an area and I'm out in the middle of BFE or it's in my backyard, I know that Smokey the Bear does not have a cell phone. I know that the deer don't carry cell phones.
I've scanned the area and there's never been a signal before and I've got a signal there now. That would lead me to believe with high confidence that this thing has identified a threat. So the same is true with aerial. I mean, come on, the birds are not, we don't have microchip birds, well we do, some, the ducks sometimes, but they don't have power. So what we've got is a situation where what we're looking for is, again, do we get any kind of flare up at all?
Any kind of advanced warning gives us the ability to deploy the weapon systems that we have. The defensive air envelope that we can create. Now, you see guys on the battlefield using rifles all the time. You've done this for guys bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, and the little drone-a-toid still gets in. The weapon, if I'm motivated, that's what I got. That's what I'm gonna shoot at them with. But remember, right tool in the toolbox changes the formula.
So, a combination of the frequency counter with the listening devices, or the audio collection devices, combined with, again, the ability to null out the area with a signal generator, or to use the two shoulder-fired weapon options and focus fire on the target that way, or targets.
The big thing here again, like I said, the now here's what's interesting that while frequency counter I picked up for about 134 I think is a price that I paid for 134 That is one of the older ones or I should say it's based on one of the older designs and it can be opened up so that you could
extensively monitor 800 meg and separate and actually listen in on any signal out there. It's not critical because it still identifies that there's activity in the 800 meg range, but it doesn't allow for you to tap into the specific subdivided signals for a particular cell phone. It's just like- Go ahead, go ahead. I just was going to say real quick,
The cheaper ones are the small ones and as the price goes up they get bigger and they have more stuff on them, you know, I guess for being able to figure out what frequencies are and stuff. Exactly. To tweak in the frequency, it's a counter. It is literally a frequency counter. If the collection sensibility, sensitivity, there we go Mark.
is sufficient or is higher than you are actually going to be able to pinpoint specific individual transmitter frequencies, which allows you to point it over there and say, no, there's not one, just one cell phone over there. I count one, two, three, four, six, seven, eight, 10. Oh, shit, the whole shitload of people over there. That isn't anybody's property. That isn't anybody's house over there. That's the middle of the cedar thatch that leads up to the house.
You see what I mean? So, you know, that's that, again, where you spend a little more money, you're going to get more, you're going to get more detail. Now, the one thing you got to watch out about this is, again, remember, they still try to make things tiny. And let's remember that in the field, you're better off with crude or less sophisticated because it's less likely that you will make a mistake with the equipment and it will fail you because you failed to operate it properly.
resetting a resetting a command or a function accidentally is something that you really have to watch out for. One of the things I was tempted to do is put shelf bracket type protective bars on either side of the handheld unit I've got. Because I know that in the future you're gonna touch something or it's gonna move something and it could be sensitive enough that you could easily switch something out.
But basically you take these little bar type poles you see for the electronics. You see this on rack mounted equipment for the same reason. So you can pull it but also to offer
