@@redmengoals3295 making sure USD is the world’s reserve currency through the petroldollar scheme and also making sure that other countries do not trade their oils with any other currency BUT the USD, so again, it remains as the world’s reserve currency. With a huge population, if Asia and Africa develop rapidly, the share of the US' economy shrinks, then the Euro could replace it as the world's reserve currency. When that happens, the US would no longer be able to print money out of nothing without a hyper inflation like Venezuela. Then the size of the US economy has to fall back to the fundamentals, which today is quite a lot smaller than the inflated economy. That's why no country in Eurasia is allowed to catch up with the US' economy. When Japan was catching up fast on the US in the 1980s, they were knocked down to a three decade stagnancy by appreciating the Japanese Yen. And in the last 30 years, the US created conflicts, wars and color revolutions in the Middle East, Central Asia and Africa to destabilise the Eurasia-Africa supercontinent. When the US prints a lot of money, other countries' foreign reserves in dollars shrink in value. Furthermore, to prevent exports to the US becoming expensive, these countries have to print money too, which devalues the savings of the people, and causing inflations in these countries. It's estimated that our savings devalue by 6-9% per year after the abolishment of the gold-backed Bretton Woods system, after which the US prints money based on just the creditability of the dollar. North America is relatively easy to defend, in fact it is noted to be among the few naturally best defendable region in the world, yet the US has a military budget more than the total of the next 9 countries in the top 10, to protect the dollar with its 800 military bases worldwide. Yeah, *That’s why* That’s also why the humongous oil reserves that they discovered in Alaska(?) Canada(?) won’t even matter, because it’s not about who have the biggest natural oil reserves in the world, it’s about where that oil is circulated toward and what currency it is funneled into. To be the world's reserve currency, the dollar must be circulated in the world. The US created a huge consumption-based economy and shifted manufacturing outside, so that dollars flow out of the US to product suppliers like China or Japan. To make products, China and Japan need energy. The US created the Petrol-dollar scheme, so that dollar is circulated to Saudi. With the US stock and financial market much more lucrative than other countries, the dollars from Saudi are attracted back to the US. Money printed in the US to exchange for goods from outside eventually ends up with the Wall Streets, where the rich gets richer. And that completes the cycle of circulation of the dollars. So basically, non of that, “I’m fighting for my country’s freedom goddamnit!!!!21!”, it’s sheer business, like what Trump said, and like any bussiness, the easiest way to rise up to the top is by making others fall. It’s the exact reason why Venezuela failed economically even though they hold the biggest oil reserves in the world, why Saddam Hussein was hunged when said he would start selling oil in Euros not Dollars, why Gaddafi was killed by US-backed NTC because he made Libya export oil in Gold Dinars instead of Dollar, why Iran was being sanctioned by the US because they’ve been trading oil in currencies other than US dollars since 2011 (mainly with Russia), and.. the best part.. why US would vehemently back Israel up with billions of dollars in military and economical means-because? Well they Biden said it himself, the US would have to invent an Israel if there was no Israel, because Israel as a whole, their Zionism principles in a literal way agreed to work with anybody and do anything as long as it can guarantee their existence and the “retaking” of their land through any possible means, which in short, USA is turning Israel into their mediator, a branch of the USA that would dominate and control the flow of the USD so that it would remain as the world’s reserve currency. They tried it with Iraq but failed, with Libya by implanting a pro-US prime minister but failed too because the pro-US PM did it’s citizens worse than the previously villainified PM (Gaddafi).

@@overlordmateus407 💯%! It was definitely something cool to see. My husband is also an Army Veteran & our sons like to give him crap abt he's getting old & rusty. & That's how family is ragging on each other & I'm sure ppl have joked w\those guys too. But it was VERY impressive how quickly they reacted w\o even having to speak to each other abt you grab, I'll cover etc or however. They just immediately responded took control & were STILL able to follow commands &work as a team w\the officers who they had never even met until that day. That was 💯% instinct & training! Which I guess really does go to show, once a soldier, always a soldier! Absolutely nothing rusty there! & This was RIGHT after the other officer told them they'd handle it & they could put away their firepower & I think he said something about them going inside but I'm not for sure if that was what he said & to whom did he say it. So they had kinda "relaxed" & probably assumed their part was over & just wanted to watch the take down & the CRAZY trash talking gun-wielding neighbor! But it wasn't even a whole MINUTE later that all hell broke out &quicker than I could blink they'd jumped into immediate action & not even out of breath or anything! Just calm, cool, collected, & in control! Reflexes! I'm definitely gonna show this to my husband. I bet he'll appreciate it too! Also, he really misses the action. Settling back down to civilian life has been a bit challenging for him! Lol. 💖
That was good of them but I definitely understand them want to shoot and kill him if he's this dangerous and threatening if defenseless family nah I feel the same way he can't come back around my people anymore idc if we have a problem if you can get me when I try to stay ready for anything that's on me but family is another story they should not be scared to leave the house to go outside! And that officer spitting was driving me crazy not spitting part I understand he was shot but I want to know exactly what was making him do it bbs blood or did something bust and go in his mouth
@DevilWolf000 what are you talking about? Crazy people are going to be crazy no matter what. The point is people in the community came together instead of running away in fear and allowing a crazy man to do whatever he wanted. A threat to one is a threat to all.
It's crazy how fast they reacted. No one freaked out. Two guys removed the sheriff and applied First Aid. Third Guy got the gun back and started returning fire.
"A well regulated militia, necessary to the security of a free state..." At least one veteran in the group, they knew enough to keep the bad guy under fire long enough to evacuate the wounded officers. The right of the citizens to keep and bear arms is important for many reasons, this being only one. Well done, guys, well done!
I find it kind of funny becuase the mad man probably thinks the same thing his thinking this cops are being tyrannical. In his mind his defending his rights.
It’s kinda surprising but it is Maple Falls. If it was closer to “in town” (next biggest town over), that level of prepared wouldn’t have likely happened.
The fact that civilians and a trained veteran stepped in to defend the officers after they were wounded goes to show that there is still faith in humanity for this world. They had zero hesitation in jumping forward to protect the officers. I truly hope they were awarded a medal of honor by the police department or something for their actions.
I bet the 2 neighbors wouldn't of had to take a year off work if they got shot by some stray bb's from birdshot either! But then again the officers paid leave for a year is paid for with tax dollars which is like a free money glitch so nobody really cares so nobody will question the excessive amount of paid leave compensation, because you know, they got a owie while doing their job that their already paid very well to do by tax dollars and benefits that would suit a king, allegedly because of situations like these and the risk!!! So they're milking the tax payers double, without any questions?!?
@@BleedingWhiteKnuckles you have ZERO idea what you're talking about. They were SHOT. You have ZERO clue what kind of trauma that does to you. You seriously want 2 officers who were shot back in the line of duty a few weeks after nearly dying? Use your brain. That's a recipe to have themselves or someone innocent killed. Even soldiers who are wounded in the line of duty are given a certain time period to recover mentally and physically. Those are your tax dollars too. Nothing to say about them?? Think before you speak/ type.
“I doubt it was a slug because I wouldn’t be here” is absolutely crazy to say after being shot in the face, like accident dark humor in the moment. Like cops or don’t like cops I think everyone can agree that is badass.
I don’t even think that was dark humor, he was simply telling another officer why he thinks it’s bird shot, like you said though, absolutely wild thing to say but I’m glad it wasn’t buckshot.
There is a show called Body Cams on ID or Discovery. This was on it. It is a crazy show and shows just how crazy stuff gets. Body Cams have saved more cops than they hurt. You hear people say stuff like "no way they did that when cops have a gun" or "That is very unlikely a person would do that". When you watch though it's true people do crazy stuff even with a armed cop right there.
it was only birdshot. they think its buckshot given the peppering but in the end they confirmed he was only using birdshot. buckshot at that distance would have done a lot more damage and they wouldnt be talking about it.
one of the officers were so calm after being shot, good on all of them for stay calm and collected and taking care of the situation. props to you cops!
@@Greenhawk4 same bro it pisses me off when I see people say acab like literally not everyone cop is bad, it's just the bad one's that gives all of them a bad rep
This gave me goosebumps the moment the two civilians immediately took action. Even after seeing the two officers shot down, they still went forward, pulling them into protection and firing back. Bless them. They desrve recognition by the county AT LEAST.
Wow, this video was gripping! The officers demonstrated remarkable composure throughout. The neighbors were definitely veterans, did not hesitate and knew exactly how to control the situation. 👏👏👏👏👮♂️
When the veteran said he protects against all terrorists foreign or domestic gave me chills. My older brother is also a veteran, I could see him doing the same thing.
Watching officers who know everyone around them has a gun, and do not treat any of them like a criminal…. Only arm up when they know it was needed, that is a very respectful and well trained set of individuals. Hell of a good representation of their shield! All of our officers should behave this way ❤️
Well yeah, people in this neighborhood of Washington with guns is way different than people walking around Compton with them, so way easier to not treat them like criminals lol.
@@theonefrancis696 "bringing more weapons in the street" Lmao. Like there aren't hundreds of millions in circulation. A single round could have stopped all this had a neighbor been armed. Instead, other people almost died.
Just copying someone else's comment: The problem with handing that out (medals) to civilians in a situation like this is that it will encourage vigilantism. As much as you me the police and everyone else wants vigilantism to properly exist it will be abused by too many people to make the awarding of the metal to the neighbor's worth it. They know in their hearts why they did it and what they did and I guarantee if you ask them they would tell you they don't need a metal to prove their worth. Absolutely outstanding citizenship
@@FINtr0ll99 we have a lot of people like this in America, willing to stand with their fellow citizens, but we also have a government which is discouraging that kinda of patriotism…
The neighbors that came together to protect their neighborhood did awesome, especially the two that provided cover and aid to the wounded officers. Every community needs a group of guys like this.
@@JAB-bc9uv unfortunately women weren’t bearing arms at this point in time. And they would need a license to anyway, which I doubt any of them did since no one else came out to help
@@avis21X And the women were probably in the house keeping any kids and pets calm, quiet and contained to keep them safe. Everyone has a role to play and that was likely theirs. I mean no one wants a kid or the family dog to go outside to see what's going on and then get shot by the crazy neighbour.
@@JAB-bc9uv I was generalizing. My wife is part of my team if we gotta deal with crap like these people did. I say women need to be encouraged to get a CCW, training with it and always keeping it on them plus training with a main battle rifle.
Some people don’t like to be exposed to the public. I am that type too. I don’t need people to know about it. I just help out of my heart not just to shownit on camera. Same with these two dudes.
Its complicated, one of the neighbours was a nazi 88, you can see the tatoo..... and the shooter told when was in police car, he can live arount theses peoples.
I guarantee they got a tab opened for them at the local cop bar at the minimum. Might not be in the papers or anything official, but those coppers and their mates will remember them and look out for em. Maybe they will help you with a one off deal on disposing of "hunting refuse" JK's aside I'm sure they got recognition from the rank and file coppers in town.
I can’t imagine how anyone can just throw away their life like that. Like why ? My heart goes out to the neighbors and the officers injured. I can’t even fathom how much fear they had but had to push those feelings aside to do their job.
I just find it so bad ass how fast the neighbors reacted. They respected the situation to let police handle it. When that didnt work, they provided assistance. I like hearing how grateful that cop felt that he had neighbors beside him while the other two officers seeked medical attention. He mentions on the radio when they are gearing up, "there is a bunch of civilians helping." And he also made sure to let his fellow officers know how they helped after the situation is taken care of.
@@Chewy_GarageBandDad Yes they went into combat mode. My father is a war veteran too and he was for the most part a quiet guy until he went into combat mode one time almost killing someone who was attacking him with his bare hands. Once a Marine Always a Marine 👍 I always say don’t mess with a veteran!
The guy that said he was a veteran didn't seem to be there at the moment. It was actually the bigger guy with the goatee and the older gentlemen that we see help the moment they were shot. I wouldn't be surprised if the goatee guy is a veteran as well though with the way he reacted. The guy who said he was a veteran was likely helping off camera as well so your probably not wrong.
Glad they are alright and made a full recovery but man those neighbors are badass for that.. they deserve the upmost respect from the community and officers and should be awarded a medal
@@HingleMacCringleberry ahh damn I didn’t hear that part.. that sucks a lot but gotta think positive sometimes from bad situations. he’s still with his family is the most important thing
That vet told you loud and clear "that is a threat" yall dont understand just how much that man leashed himself to let the cops get there and deal with it. Salute to you my brother
Yes when the cop tells them to stand down, the vet crosses his arms & leans back. I’m sure I’m not the only one who recognized that body language. That’s what a wife does when her husband (or mom does to her kid) that hasn’t been listening to her & is about to attempt something she knows is going to go badly. So she scoffs, crosses her arms & leans back as she says some version of “okay, go ahead.” (It’s not really permission as much as it is a dare that you continue with whatever you just told her you were going to do at your own peril. She’s leaning back to physically distance herself & get in a position to watch you suffer the consequences that she just warned you were coming if you proceeded.
Or it’s kinda awkward telling a cop that you are armed. Even though for the right reasons. They don’t know you and didn’t have the full story yet. He probably just kept his hands in a relaxed manner to keep everyone cool.
I mean... Considering they only returned fire in that one instance and didn't go in gun blazing taking the law into their own hands and all and had the patience to wait for a swat team and focus on defending and rendering aid to the wounded officers... They seemed to have a fair degree of self control and situational awareness to me and were more than fine with letting the cops handle things instead of starting a firefight in the middle of their neighborhood. Maybe a little pent up and anxious about the situation because of there being a clear and present danger to their families, but still. They didn't seem to be having any trouble keeping themselves from going awol.
The neighbors deserve some recognition for their heroism and civility. They did the right thing by involving police and not taking justice into their own hands; and when the time came for them to act they did not hesitate. God bless them.
@@FrauditorsLie i hope so. I looked up the article that covered it and the only recognition of the citizens was from quotes by the officer. I hope it is found elsewhere but I couldn't find it.
Every neighborhood needs good guys like those who aren't afraid to step up to protect another. It's exhausting having mentally ill neighbors like Young. This was emotional to watch.
Many years ago I was in a rough situation in life and I had an occurrence like this and I will never forget the hug from the officer and his family after helping, nobody should be afraid to help our law enforcement no matter where you come from.
I think most neighborhoods _do_ have guys like that. Fortunately most of us aren’t put in the position where officers will require our immediate assistance.
Omg,that's unreal. I hope the cops are ok and get any help in all manners of recovery. They were very lucky to have the people they were helping,help them ❤️
@@GRIM_MOD This is the mindset/comment from someone that wants to disarm the civilian population. Depending on the state, that neighbor will be sued into oblivion for coming to the rescue. This is the sad world we live in since communism was never stomped out back in the 40s.

Thank you for your service officers, I hope they are good now because getting shot especially in the head and driving yourself to get aid is absolutely insane
This is my hometown. It's a blessing that those neighbors weren't charged. The state laws may be far from perfect when it comes to defense of another or yourself but we've got a really, really good police force here. They're insanely patient and have an amazing response time for how spread out the populated areas are. I had an officer save my life when i was stabbed. The ambulance arrived in two minutes flat but he kept me from going into shock and bleeding out. We also have a mental health and homeless liason, who is a regular officer with extra training in mental health. I watched a mentally unwell man flick a lit cigaret into his face. His response was to take a deep breath and proceed to talk the man away from the store where he was bothering people and to an area where he was less of a nuisance. People may hate on cops but we are genuinely blessed in this area.
America, it's 2024, and you're still behaving in this gunhappy way while China takes over the world. In 2024, the United States doesn't even make the top ten most-free countries.

Well they Biden said it himself, the US would have to invent an Israel if there was no Israel, because Israel as a whole, their Zionism principles in a literal way agreed to work with anybody and do anything as long as it can guarantee their existence and the “retaking” of their land through any possible means, which in short, USA is turning Israel into their mediator, a branch of the USA that would dominate and control the flow of the USD so that it would remain as the world’s reserve currency. They tried it with Iraq but failed, with Libya by implanting a pro-US prime minister but failed too because the pro-US PM did it’s citizens worse than the previously villainified PM (Gaddafi). Oh my god it’ll be a whole essay If I’m going to explain it all here, I would reccomend you to just research it, and make sure to use multiple sources and references on a singular topic so as to not be mistakenly “washed” by biases nor manipulative narrations.
When I heard them say "we have a bunch of civilians helping us" I smiled so big because that's what America is all about.

High marks to the neighbors for risking their lives to render aid to the two wounded deputies. That is the definition of citizenship.
you can see they served, pulling them in cover, defensive positioning, giving aid in team, looks like a veteran unit to me
@@overlordmateus407 💯%! It was definitely something cool to see. My husband is also an Army Veteran & our sons like to give him crap abt he's getting old & rusty. & That's how family is ragging on each other & I'm sure ppl have joked w\those guys too. But it was VERY impressive how quickly they reacted w\o even having to speak to each other abt you grab, I'll cover etc or however. They just immediately responded took control & were STILL able to follow commands &work as a team w\the officers who they had never even met until that day. That was 💯% instinct & training! Which I guess really does go to show, once a soldier, always a soldier! Absolutely nothing rusty there! & This was RIGHT after the other officer told them they'd handle it & they could put away their firepower & I think he said something about them going inside but I'm not for sure if that was what he said & to whom did he say it. So they had kinda "relaxed" & probably assumed their part was over & just wanted to watch the take down & the CRAZY trash talking gun-wielding neighbor! But it wasn't even a whole MINUTE later that all hell broke out &quicker than I could blink they'd jumped into immediate action & not even out of breath or anything! Just calm, cool, collected, & in control! Reflexes! I'm definitely gonna show this to my husband. I bet he'll appreciate it too! Also, he really misses the action. Settling back down to civilian life has been a bit challenging for him! Lol. 💖
That was good of them but I definitely understand them want to shoot and kill him if he's this dangerous and threatening if defenseless family nah I feel the same way he can't come back around my people anymore idc if we have a problem if you can get me when I try to stay ready for anything that's on me but family is another story they should not be scared to leave the house to go outside!
And that officer spitting was driving me crazy not spitting part I understand he was shot but I want to know exactly what was making him do it bbs blood or did something bust and go in his mouth

The fact that civilians and a trained veteran stepped in to defend the officers after they were wounded goes to show that there is still faith in humanity for this world. They had zero hesitation in jumping forward to protect the officers. I truly hope they were awarded a medal of honor by the police department or something for their actions.

I bet the 2 neighbors wouldn't of had to take a year off work if they got shot by some stray bb's from birdshot either! But then again the officers paid leave for a year is paid for with tax dollars which is like a free money glitch so nobody really cares so nobody will question the excessive amount of paid leave compensation, because you know, they got a owie while doing their job that their already paid very well to do by tax dollars and benefits that would suit a king, allegedly because of situations like these and the risk!!!

Just copying someone else's comment:
The problem with handing that out (medals) to civilians in a situation like this is that it will encourage vigilantism. As much as you me the police and everyone else wants vigilantism to properly exist it will be abused by too many people to make the awarding of the metal to the neighbor's worth it. They know in their hearts why they did it and what they did and I guarantee if you ask them they would tell you they don't need a metal to prove their worth. Absolutely outstanding citizenship

So she scoffs, crosses her arms & leans back as she says some version of “okay, go ahead.” (It’s not really permission as much as it is a dare that you continue with whatever you just told her you were going to do at your own peril. She’s leaning back to physically distance herself & get in a position to watch you suffer the consequences that she just warned you were coming if you proceeded.

I mean... Considering they only returned fire in that one instance and didn't go in gun blazing taking the law into their own hands and all and had the patience to wait for a swat team and focus on defending and rendering aid to the wounded officers...
They seemed to have a fair degree of self control and situational awareness to me and were more than fine with letting the cops handle things instead of starting a firefight in the middle of their neighborhood. Maybe a little pent up and anxious about the situation because of there being a clear and present danger to their families, but still. They didn't seem to be having any trouble keeping themselves from going awol.

The state laws may be far from perfect when it comes to defense of another or yourself but we've got a really, really good police force here. They're insanely patient and have an amazing response time for how spread out the populated areas are. I had an officer save my life when i was stabbed. The ambulance arrived in two minutes flat but he kept me from going into shock and bleeding out. We also have a mental health and homeless liason, who is a regular officer with extra training in mental health. I watched a mentally unwell man flick a lit cigaret into his face. His response was to take a deep breath and proceed to talk the man away from the store where he was bothering people and to an area where he was less of a nuisance. People may hate on cops but we are genuinely blessed in this area.

@@abafra420 it truly is. There are some amazing hikes
That is really good to hear. That's a great example of good policing.
Is this Bellingham?
I can’t imagine how scary it is to get shot in the face, the fear and then to feel like you were losing your sight. My god thank god they are ok. Such brave people!
The guy also managed to exfiltrate the area in the car on his own carrying his friend in the backseat, truly mvp
😂
😂
@@IRONMANMETALBILLDANKANIS whats wrong with you
The worst part is that the criminal was shooting bird shot so the pellets got stuck in the officers face
Absolutely horrible
This came up on my feed and my husband and I watched it. We were horrified that this happened in the neighborhood we just moved from. My husband and I worked with Chief Jerry DeBruin (who is the nicest person you will ever meet along with his team) and occasionally the local sheriffs in our Emergency Resource organization.
I was moved to tears when I saw the brave law enforcement men get shot. THANK GOD for the Good Samaritans.
Now this is a community that looks out for each other.
Don’t ever underestimate a crazy neighbor. Some folks don’t feel they have anything to live for . Their anger goes to the folks they see the most .
We have entire families here that the cops want nothing to do with.
@@marcpedneault3362 It's the same way where I live, cops want nothing to do with the methheads, but the methheads seem to stay out of yards where vets regularly fire ar10s ar15s etc...
Amazing job by the neighbors. Honestly, I'm not surprised, heard the guy say "I'm a vet and I'll fight against terrorists foreign or domestic" those officers were not alone!!!
👍🏻
Truth. Great video, too! This channel is my favorite.
That's what he meant but he said "i defend all terrorists foreign and domestic" 😂
They will be now after all these gun laws passed by Inslee.
@@SaltyE6 way to purposely misinterpret what someone said. he said "I defend. All terrorists, foreign or domestic."😂
Excellent video mate, really enjoyed it. As much as I can considering the circumstances anyway.
Salute to those civilians for not only returning fire but also for administering first aid
The neighbours deserve a medal as well for protecting and saving those 2 policemen during their work! They all risked their lives...
@Daduz_75 you're just hating on cops for no reason. Some cops are down right sadistic but here there's an obvious "bad guy" and it's not the cops my dude get your head checked or stop committing crimes to make you hate the cops lmao
@@Daduz_75 you're not as superior as you think you are rn man lmao
@Daduz_75 barley.
@Daduz_75 came to see what other dude said and noticed you liked your own comment lmao any point you tried to make is void
the neighbors should receive recognition
The cops and the neighbors should both receive recognition. They all put their lives on the line for the sake of their fellow man
thats how you get vigilantes. which are not safe.
@@yeetsnyonders6858 clown
@@yeetsnyonders6858 pretty sure it's more safe than a neighborhood filled with dead cops
@@poolee77 I think what he means is that when more people take law into their own hands, there is more risk of mistakes and aggressive interactions among the public.
There are a lot of stupid people I wouldn't want running around exacting their own justice.
I'm glad these deputies are okay.
.... God bless the neighborhood that ran in with no care to help out and defend the injured officers ....
lmaoo “im just here, bleedin….”dude is a champion
Makes my heart warm when he said “we were looking at the house and I realized this is my team”
Same
Same
Same
I don't get it
the cops that remained were referring to the civvies as their team
I hope those neighbors that helped the two officers got awarded in some way.
This is why citizens deserve to bare arms!
These officers were actually chill as hell and reasonable.
Homie said I’m alright. I’m not but yea lol basically I ain’t gon die but I ain’t whole either 😂
I've lived in this neighborhood for several years. My wife and I walk this street often when getting exercise. This is a street where people are friendly and always say hi and kids can play outside. I had the misfortune of meeting Joel several years before, but I had no idea he was that crazy. Glad everyone made it ok. Glad I live in a place where people look after each other. Joel's house still has a taped up window from this incident.
thanks for sharing

I'm so glad that your neighborhood is safe again with that wacko locked up. I pray that he doesn't get out... and that you all get new neighbors who are kind.🙋🏾♀️🙇🏾♀️🙌🏾
@@SonyaHudson He's a guy in his 60s who shot at law enforcement officials. I doubt anyone will ever see him again.
His house is probably pretty sketchy too
Those neighbors deserve some recognition. Not only did they return fire, but they tried helping the injured officers. It is terrifying to heat that the one officer was hit in the head. So scary.
Big up those two Officers they stayed strong and calm after being shot in the head/face area.. many ppl wouldn’t be able to stay that calm after something like that.. That’s two well Trained Officers 👮♂️ 👮♂️
10:28 makes my heart proud “we got a bunch of civilians helping us”
14:08 "Everybody's looking at the house, and I'm like, alright, this is my team. And I don't know who those two guys were, but they were great." As far as he knew, the official team was down, and all he had was the unofficial team, but it sounded like he would have been okay with that, if push came to shove.
That is a huge reason why if the US would ever lose a war, it wouldn't be on their soil.
Those neighbors are real tough guys! My respects!
Same!
Look where they live you gotta be TUFF
Kudos to the neighbors and thank you law enforcement.
The fact that these cops still maintained composure after being shot
