Political science has long described what seems to be happening. 

From the tribal leader comes the monarch, whose reign gives way to an aristocracy that produces a middle class that creates a republic, the degenerative form of which is that pure democracy of which John Adams wrote: 

"Democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There is never a democracy that did not commit suicide." Then comes the strong man again.

Hard to argue the point.

Russian bombers penetrated U.S. airspace at least 16 times in past 10 days

This earned 2 paragraphs in Washington Times.

It only takes one or two nukes to fuck us beyond retaliation - because there IS NO WILL TO RETALIATE in the halls of power in America.  They WANT a reason to embrace Communism - and what you saw at Bundy when BLM backed down is the same tactic that will be used from Washington - we will not retaliate with nukes in the name of world safety and peace....

You have all been warned.

WWIII is underway.

RevWarIII is underway.

There are two over-riding goals: Consolidation of the Communist worldview across the planet, and to hide the stolen wealth from the people of the world.

It is that simple.

Eat or be eaten - being eaten last is NOT a win...

I often write about people known to many of us - Wirecutter, CA, Trainer, J.C., et cetera.

They have all put themselves out there on-point.

Once in a while I will mention people who leave comments, or that I meet in CQB or at PatCons, et cetera - they keep a lower profile, so I respect that and try not to raise them on the radar too much.

Some people I rarely or never discuss - because they have chosen to remain in the shadows - but that does not mean they are inactive or not contributing.

One member of my personal Tribe shared the above picture of the Pride of lions with a few of us.  I immediately thought "Yep - some individuals will come, some will go, but the Pride is the Legacy.  The weak are cast out or self-select out."  Most of you have seen this in your own dealings.

Just FYI: The guy who sent this is one of those who only needs to send up a smoke signal, and I'll go help him E&E, or I'll Flank & Spank (TM) on his behalf.  Tribe.

As we move forward, Patriots, remember - not everyone is as they seem at first, there are many sprinters and few who can go hard for the marathon.  Let the sprinters go.  Keep your eye on the ultimate goal.  Never quit until you are dead.

Here's the second graphic he sent, and I suggest it to all of you for a bit of introspection.

Find your inner Fuck You and cultivate it.

We are in a time when America needs Her hardcore Patriots who are willing to go hard, go often, Hunt Evil and End It, and let the weak die...

Stay the motherfucking course, or do not waste my motherfucking time.

An Open Letter to future Americans...

Fifty or one-hundred years after I am dead, I have no idea what America will look like or if those of you alive will be free, or even if you will refer to yourselves as "Americans."

I hope you are all Free, at Liberty, and living in relative harmony.

But I am not sanguine this will be your reality.  I am not confident that record of this letter will even be in existence, or if you do come across it somewhere, it will be a language you can read.

If you do find this letter and by some chance you are able to read it, then I hope you have the courage to do so if it is somehow forbidden.  I am going to share a bit of your history - the real stuff, not whatever may be written or otherwise communicated to you.

Look for three documents: The Declaration of Independence, the Constitution of the United States, and the Bill of Rights.  Read them.  Those documents come from what I call our Founding Generation, and I am convinced they were written and ratified (agreed-to) by the people of the day in Good Faith.

But as has been said by better men than am I: In all generations there will be men (and women) who mean to be Masters.  There will be Bad People, always.

Almost immediately - within a dozen years of ratification, those original documents that were intended to serve as a blueprint for Liberty-based governance in America - Bad People of the generation had already undermined and perverted the Good Faith intent of those documents into something ugly - ugly enough that war should have begun again.  Over the generations leading to my own, things only grew worse as each generation of people had their own numbers of Bad People who continued to twist and pervert the "Founder's Intent" into something hideous.

By the time I was born in 1967, we were circling the bowl - wait, you may be using shells or something by the time you read this...

...by the time I was born in 1967, America was on a bad path and accelerating.  By the time I was 35, politicians (They are all bad by this time) created the "Department of Homeland Security."  Within a decade America was firmly within the grips of Bad People, she was being raped, pillaged and plundered of all wealth, invaded as a means of diluting our Western Values, and by definition had become a "Police State".

The first skirmishes of what I call WWIII and RevWarIII (Revolutionary War III) occurred in 2013 and 2014.  As I write this, the world is on the precipice of a mass de-population by disease, warfare, famine - all of it avoidable, but being prosecuted by malevolent people, assisted by people who are being opportunistic, and masses of people who simply don't believe it is possible.

A small collection of Americans are doing what they can to preserve Liberty, at least on a personal level.  Many of those people are also seeking to envelope and protect as many others as possible.  But the truth is the Bad People are winning, because they are unbound by basic morality.

Here is a sad reality that will certainly be as true when you read this as when I write it - Human evolution simply will not change that much, that fast: Most people will default to self-serving actions and abandon promises and principles when they begin to suffer the slightest discomfort.   Very few people will truly ever live up to their words.  Get over it - it's a Human failing and you can't do a thing to change it.  You only have dominion over your own actions.

I will not discuss what I have done, what a few of my allies-in-Liberty have done.

There is no point. 

I will not discuss what I may or may not do between now and my death in pursuit of Liberty.  Odds are good whatever I choose to do will be insignificant in the course of Human events.

But some of us tried to ensure you, our posterity, would not come into this world a slave.

If we failed - I am sorry.

I will leave you with a single piece of advice, in case you are suffering Bad People.  This advice has worked since the first bipeds walked the planet, and when applied in a timely manner and with sufficient determination and quantity, will result, ultimately, in your Liberty:

When faced with Evil - kill it.

Had my generation done more of it, sooner, I would have no need of this letter to you.

Why the focus on fighting skills and will?

Because, as WiscoDave sends, YOU have been marked for death by Enemies of Liberty.

Feel free to die without a fight, or to die with a stupid, shocked expression on your face if you wish.

Or, bend knee.

Do whatever you wish.

I do not bend knee.

You can kill me.  But you can't win.

Some of you think you have a few years...

...if you are correct, here is your path: 6 months of serious, hardcore Krav Maga.

Then you get intense: find a good Brazilian Ju-Jutsu studio and go at least 5 times each week.  At the same time, find a hardcore (that is more difficult these days as most have gone hippie) Aiki Dojo and attend at LEAST one class per day.

Do this until you leave the porch.

Here's a bit of Royce that any serious fighter has seen - and a few were fortunate enough to see such matches in person...

Train hard.  It is NOT merely your life you are defending.



Kerodin

Train as if you will fight for your life...

...because if you are not fighting for your life - and his - you should not be fighting.

FYI: You will often see the attacked hold onto the attacker's arm through the technique's conclusion, and give it a little twist and pressure.  It's far more complex to get that nuance into muscle-memory, but here's the gist: Once your attacker is down, you decide if he ever uses that wrist, elbow and/or shoulder again - in a simple moment.

For my Appalachian, Southron and other such allies...

Folks, I have no time for drama from any quarter. This Evil heads our way - focus...

Get it?

Except you will have no landing craft. You will have no offshore Navy pounding the Earth before you arrive. You will not have as many allies at your shoulders. You will have very little re-supply. You will have little medical help.

And the other side: Has all of that, and more.

Have a nice day.

Leave the junk in the trunk

 

 

Guys and gals - don't spend cheap on items upon which you will bet your life and the lives of your Buddy, your Tribe, your wife and children.  When you know Harm's Way has you calendared, leave the Made in Taiwan $9 KA-BAR fake in the catalog, and buy a damned KA-BAR.

Be this guy...

For conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of his life above and beyond the call of duty at Saipan, Mariana Islands, June 19 to July 7 1944. When his entire company was held up by fire from automatic weapons and small-arms fire from strongly fortified enemy positions that commanded the view of the company, Sgt. (then Pvt.) Baker voluntarily took a bazooka and dashed alone to within 100 yards of the enemy. Through heavy rifle and machinegun fire that was directed at him by the enemy, he knocked out the strong point, enabling his company to assault the ridge. Some days later while his company advanced across the open field flanked with obstructions and places of concealment for the enemy, Sgt. Baker again voluntarily took up a position in the rear to protect the company against surprise attack and came upon 2 heavily fortified enemy pockets manned by 2 officers and 10 enlisted men which had been bypassed. Without regard for such superior numbers, he unhesitatingly attacked and killed all of them. Five hundred yards farther, he discovered 6 men of the enemy who had concealed themselves behind our lines and destroyed all of them. On 7 July 1944, the perimeter of which Sgt. Baker was a part was attacked from 3 sides by from 3,000 to 5,000 Japanese. During the early stages of this attack, Sgt. Baker was seriously wounded but he insisted on remaining in the line and fired at the enemy at ranges sometimes as close as 5 yards until his ammunition ran out. Without ammunition and with his own weapon battered to uselessness from hand-to-hand combat, he was carried about 50 yards to the rear by a comrade, who was then himself wounded. At this point Sgt. Baker refused to be moved any farther stating that he preferred to be left to die rather than risk the lives of any more of his friends. A short time later, at his request, he was placed in a sitting position against a small tree . Another comrade, withdrawing, offered assistance. Sgt. Baker refused, insisting that he be left alone and be given a soldier's pistol with its remaining 8 rounds of ammunition. When last seen alive, Sgt. Baker was propped against a tree, pistol in hand, calmly facing the foe. Later Sgt. Baker's body was found in the same position, gun empty, with 8 Japanese lying dead before him. His deeds were in keeping with the highest traditions of the U.S. Army.

IIIGear Weekend

It's another IIIGear weekend.

Our Molon Labe III Arms shirts arrived at the end of the week, so we'll be processing all back-orders and outstanding orders this weekend, for shipment Monday.  If you have an outstanding order and have not seen it by next Saturday's mail, drop me an email.

Yes - there are new patches that I haven't put online yet - I have to freshen-up the IIIGear page.  I hope to get to it after filling orders - but I can't promise it'll get done this weekend.

It is what it is...

In front of the White House a group of pro-Israeli people were loaded into Capitol Hill Police vans and moved away.

Why?

And let us not forget who our politicians and bureaucrats made silent by making them leave "...for their own safety..."

There have been several times in our history when such a collection of Communists would have been, literally, a target of opportunity.

Now, we let them have the Ground, and oppress their enemies.

Housekeeping: SpamAssassin

Folks, a few days ago I enabled SpamAssassin across my domains.  There is supposed to be a box where it dumps Spam (and potential non-spam) but I haven't found it yet.

It is possible if you are sending me mail, it is dying a horrible death.  It's also possible I rec'd it and as usual, I am just unable to reply for a few days or week.  Too much mail, too much life.

It isn't blocking any of my blogger or wordpress mail (I haven't given it any special permissions), and I am receiving mail from many known allies/friends with no issues, so I don't think it's killing much "good" mail.  For whatever reason, if you send me an email that you think died, just submit a comment at IIIPercent and tell me to look for your email.  I won't publish the comment, no need cluttering blogger - just make sure you leave me a return email addy if you submit via the blog.
