I've warned many that many veterans are not to be trusted just because they are veterans. I was a seal and know many who went to work for the elites. I even went to work for armored convoys years ago. When shtf, they will have dod, feds, nato forces, un forces and everyone else they can get.
Interesting, you forgot one little thingy, called the third line or front. As in do you not think Russia, China and other foreign Ops already in the Excited States of America, thanks to heads Biden and Kameltoe, shall not be working the populations in revolt to their benefit? They will not give two 's about, if you are right wing or left, Demon Cat or REPO., they will give you small arms and explosives, up the gazoo, and would likely rather deal with people who are law abiding MAGA boys and girls. Don't forget Russia is a Christian so-called State now. They will split the Excited States right down the middle with any UNcivil War. West Coast Canada etc for CHINA, Alaska and rest of USA for Russia The Civil War will be one of Rural vs Urban and in many States the National Guard has now become the State Guard, as in Florida and Texas. Those homeless Vet Junkies you talk about in tent cities, bent over and burnt out with drugs, mainly in California, many who have committed suicide. How many of them were/are X Navy Seals etc. Ya you are around 60% correct and this is a very good video, but both sides has a lot of surprises for the other, in addition fighting the UNcivil War will likely occur within a cold dark Nuclear Wasteland. OH keep a close eye on Cuba, some Canadian Ops guys I know, via JTF2, [they were on the CDN Patrol Boat and snuck in with rebreathers] are whispering that Putin is placing [probably has] hyper nukes into CUBA ALREADY. Not a few but dozens if not approaching 100. Remember they are smaller now and around 50 feet in length [with booster stage] and 5 feet to 6 feet in diameter, ~15.1 meters by ~1.5m to 1.75m. Don't think your navy Seals will do much with thyroids the size of coco-nuts. HAHAHAHAHA
I'm a Loser. You have a better Dad than myself. Made me stronger and you softer. I'm ok with that. Hell breaks loose you're your own worst enemy and Digestive and Infection will get you sooner than a gunfight you hiding under your bed from.
Love this ❤️. As a once upon Grunt Combat Doc who faced guerrilla warfare, your observation is way more accurate that 99% here know, or could ever know or ever fathom. Men fighting for their literal home and existence, is a very different kinda magnitude of force.
Negative we have already won we are already eternal ; from our rotting corpses infinite beautiful things will rise from the ashes just as we raged against the dying light ; have no fear for we are already eternal
Exactly right I saw a video that made a good point and thats that you can train like US infantry or SF and those skills are good but you won't have the logistics they have supporting them if you want to study a good insurgency study the VC and the Taliban

If I can, I will shoot If I cannot shoot, I will reload If I cannot reload, I will bring ammo If I can't bring ammo, I'll help the wounded If I can't help the wounded, I'll give blood If I can't give blood, I'm probably dead If I'm dead, strip what you can from my body and keep fighting
If you want (or expect) to fight a civil war, learn how to deal with drones and smart artillery/missile strikes. That is how they will come for you - that and General Winter, Brigadier Starvation and Colonel Epidemic.
Very true, we are already seeing this in Ukraine. Missile/artillery strikes with drones constantly monitoring your location and movements, so far away that you can't see or hear the drone.
Because with conventional armies there's a line that, once crossed, means the army is no more. But the soldiers are still there and then the soldiers then become guerrillas.
55 years ago, I fought against a group of gorilla fighters/patriots, who successfully defend their country against foreign ideology, as well as against the premier military power on the planet. I lost, and so did my military forces, the best in the world !!! Some how the courage, and correctness of these patriots/believers in their cause won the war !!! My Son lost his life, fighting against another gorilla force, this time in Afghanistan, another country that had never submitted to a foreign power in all of history. Is any one foolish enough to think, that American patriots will not defend our homes against any and all enemies foreign or domestic ??? While it will not be my fight. At 74 years of age, and with cancer, caused by agent orange, having pretty well removed me from direct combat. I will still defend my home and family as best I can. I will never surrender, and I will never retreat. I am an American. Tim
@@MrTIGERH1752 There is hope. God became a human as Jesus and died to take the penalty for everything wrong you’ve ever done, then rose again. Sin is disobedience to how God tells us to live (mainly in the New Testament). If you want to be with him for eternity and be saved from hell, believe in him and what he did (John 3:16), and turn away from habits of sin (Luke 13:3). Your actions are evidence for whether your faith is real (James 2:17), but you’re not saved by your actions directly, only by God’s mercy (Ephesians 2:8-9). We all mess up and sin, so when you do, just confess your sin to God (1 John 1:9) and continue on fighting. It won’t make life easy, but God can give you hope. By the way, I hope you have a great day!
Tim you sir are logistics and planning. Your service in nam, would be invaluable in the rear. You direct operations, and help get supplies to those who need it. In a war, the real hero is the guy in supply, who makes sure the front line has what it needs.
It’s easy to convince forces who the bad guy is too. “We recieved intel from higher that Grunt is a former Marine, hates the government, has an arsenal in his house, and plans to overthrow his local state capital.” And none of it is true…but lower ranks execute bc they are fully in faith to their leadership….they never question anything. I used to be that guy. Then I got out and woke up. Semper Fi.
In Afghanistan I carried 16 mags. Plus 40mm plus a couple frags on my vest. My thoughts then was I didn’t want to end up like the black hawk down guys, I was also 18-19, I’m now 40 my body isn’t the same. Stay fit and frosty out there
I wouldn't carry less than 10 mags in any kind of combat. You can still be pretty dang fit in your 40s. Saw a Vietnam vet in his 70s kicking ass fitness-wise here on youtube. Have to see it to believe it.
I'm almost 60, an old LRRS guy from '85-'93. We allways carried 20 magazines standard, usualy MG belts, frags, smokes, flares, 40mm and at least one claymore mine...SOP. That's what rucks and bandoliers are for. The Ruck usually weighed 80+lbs. I'm a spinal Cord Injury Disabled guy today with 3 surgeries at L5S1 where the kidney pad on the ALICE ruck goes. These days, I still hump up and down my ridge here in the Ozarks. (I use a pack other than the ALICE that crippled me.) I can still do what I did 30+yrs ago... I just can't sustain it day after day. I absolutely require recovery time... and I really need my sleep these days. I also can't go without food like I used to. If I don't eat every 12hrs or so, my body starts shutting down.
@andrewcarlson2178 lol... I'm almost 2" shorter than when I enlisted. It all happened from enlistment to discharge. I went from 5'11" to 5'9-1/2" . Spinal compression is real. There are countless thousands of grunts who are disabled because of the shitty gear bought from the lowest bidders. Boots with no arch support, rucks that cripple guys...oh, and if the disability wasn't obvious before discharge...it's not a Line of Duty injury and you're on your own.
I was a SAW gunner and made sure I had at least 4 drums, 2 frags, and 2 purple smokes on me everyday. My knees are shit now and I have sciatica. But I feel that I am still alive because of my decision.
I don't know who this quote comes from, but it was from the US in Iraq/Afghanistan. The US force has watches, but the guerillas have time. They just melt away and disappear back into the general population to fight another day. Granted, there was A LOT of new tech that came out during the last 20 years over there geared specifically towards identifying people, retina scans, surveillance, gunpowder trace detection. Couple that with the last couple years, AI, drones, etc. Won't be easy that's for sure.
@@GodsDumbLamb It's not normal math tho, its terrorist math. You have 10 terrorists, and you kill 2, how many are left? 20, you just radicalized those 2 guys friends and family members. But you are right in the fact that these were enemies who were not afraid to die for the cause.

@@killbill5486 I like the mentality of preparedness, but that quote always rubbed me the wrong way. I know for a fact it's my personal bias from being on a farm lol, don't like to see that hard work getting downplayed. If being a gardener only means he cannot fight, then being a warrior would only mean he cannot feed himself. I'm making mountains out of molehills here anyways: because push comes to shove, I'll feed the warrior in a heartbeat and hopefully he'll keep my farm safe so we can both do the same tomorrow.
@@cleanmikeandtheboys3165 you shouldn't be so sensitive and ego driven. That is exploitable weakness with all due respect. And most people don't think gardening is the same as farming.
@@killbill5486 like I said, if ever the stakes are high, none of what I said up there would matter to me any longer. Or at least that's what I meant to say, sry if it didn't come out that way. In the case of gardening vs farming, if people really see it as two completely different things, then I wouldn't even want to be a gardener in a garden lol
Tactics don't mean anything without fitness. If you heat cat in the middle of a firefight or pass the fuck out carrying 100 lbs of gear for miles and never even get to the battle then tactics are then useless

I know many military vets, especially in San Antonio and Milwaukee. What this man is saying is true. Most of my high school teachers back in the 90s were mostly Vietnam & first Gulf War vets. I graduated in 99, before I did I remember this one time when this so-called Latin King threatened my shop teacher, Mr.Wagner, and he grabbed this punk ass kid and told him “If the US government given a check to kill your ass & I would do it without pause”. The kid's reaction was a dead silent look and Mr. Wagner's eyes had a dull dark look as if nothing else mattered. Mr.Wagner was a Marine during the Vietnam War. I don't use the word ex because it never goes away but it becomes you.

I was raised by The Greatest Generation....and THANK GOD I WAS!!! My father was there to see the 1st and 2nd (photo-memorial) flag raised on Mount Suribachi. Then ended up as a "replacement" on Okinawa then later in Korea. The man I worked for as a teenager who taught all about residential home building climbed Pont-Du-Hoc on D-Day....THOSE MEN took NO shit!!! And many more I came in contact with. ALL my friend's dads served all over the world in WW2......WE LEARNED from them!! Yeah, I may be older than some smart-ass 20-something twerp....but those Mother-F'n pussies will NEVER SURVIVE how I grew up as a kid 50, 60 years ago.
Well said. I was 22 years army airborne infantry with 5 deployments to Afghanistan and Iraq. I thought I was pretty damn good. Took only a few weeks to dispel that notion. I spent a year with a high speed unit. The first few weeks of that showed me how much different “the other side” worked. Later on, I showed up to a selection in top physical shape, only to realize that it wasn’t anywhere near good enough. I’m proud of my service and I AM (or was) pretty damn good. But SOF is a whole different world. A whole different beast. Like he said, most of the guys I met are stand up, grade A dudes. I’d gladly serve with them again if they’d have me. But those days are long gone. Gonna be 50 in a little while. My running and gunning days are over. I can still shoot, but I’m no sniper. Learn a different skill. Stay in shape as best you can. I don’t want a civil war to pop off. I don’t think anyone really wants one except the psychos and the elites. Hopefully, America can overcome this situation we’re in. God help us. Damn. If I wasn’t on a watch list before, well….here we are.
He is correct. Unfortunately I believe ,"it's" coming. balkanization, separation, secession, bloody civil war. We ,as a Nation, can not/will not survive what is coming.

@@mattk6827 they also used different tactics then than they do now. I get your point, but there's a significant difference between their military then and our situation now. Too much bread and circus for too many people
I hate to ruin the fun at the party, and I am glad that things turned out they way it did for America to be created, but uhhmmm at the time, France and the Spanish got involved assisting in the fight against Britain. The French moreso had put a wrench into Britain's plans. I guess today you don't have to worry about France helping since France has gone woke g @ Y and all, but take note you might want to make friends with the Spanish people again. Just my thoughts. Again, not trying to take away from the glory of it all, and am glad that it turned out the way it did for America to be created.

I may be a little older now, with many health issues. I may not be able to run 5 miles a day or more any longer. But I can still hit out to 600+ meters. I can talk with people and build communities. I can build a house from the ground up. Feed my family without going to the local mart. Read a map and compass. I know my limits, and my strengths. And one of my (and many of us older guys) bests advantages is we know what we are capable of. The enemy does not.
I hear it all the time. “I don’t plan on getting into close combat with the bad guys, so im not training in cqb”. “Im not planning on engaging beyond 100yrds, so im not learning long distance shooting.” “Im not planning on getting into a big gun fight so Im not carrying a bunch of mags” “Im not planning on getting into a gun fight so im not wearing a plate carrier” All these things are being said by people who call themselves “preppers” but they don’t seem to be preparing for anything.
Yeah, meanwhile troops who are not friendlies to us are learning cqb, sniping and carrying 16 mags of 30 and our guv wants to crack down on us training and to limit us to 10 round mags...for now..... Wtf.
Be wise and know that the feds have been infiltrating the community for years and spreading misinformation to confuse people. The tactics they fear the most are the ones they claim are not necessary. Anything the gummint says you cannot have is what you should have. Anything the feds say you should not know is something you should be an expert on.

Study your enemies ... they are predictable if you know their tactics. Study your politicians even better ... they are the ones who deploy your enemies.
@@blackatrium Yes, but there are thousands of units with thousands of NCOs running them. And only a handful of politicians that are would-be high value targets. While it is important to have units dealing with enemy units out in the field it is also important to have smaller clandestine units dealing with politicians in their homes or wherever they are hiding. Otherwise, what's the point? At the end of the day those soldiers and NCOs you face out in the field aren't the ones making the policies that result in everything going to shit. If you can stop the enemy from advancing on your village, cool. But unless you wipe out their village, they're just going to continue sending more to wipe out yours. Those spineless pissants who send other men to fight and die to enforce their policies should fear for their own safety for doing so.
Do you have any insight on the gangstalking epidemic in this country? The citizens being hired by the state to target and harass innocent fellow citizens?
The difference, however, is the rules of engagement. In those conflicts, soldiers hands are intentionally tied so as to prolong the war. Which in turn creates more profits for the military-industrial complex or otherwise achieves some politically-motivated goal. A domestic conflict, by contrast, will be different. It will be no-holds-barred orders to exterminate with extreme prejudice. I'm not saying that means an automatic win for "them", but it does mean that we can't use previous overseas conflicts as a template for how things would go down domestically; at least not exclusively. There's certainly lessons to be learned studying unconventional asymmetric warfare; agreed 100%. Just don't assume a domestic conflict is going to play out the same as the conflicts in Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan; it will be its own beast.
@JohnDoe-zl6qw the other consideration is that those we fought there had many sons. Lose a few, the family survives. Here, very few have more than one or two. Every KIA is the obliteration of ancient family lineages, never to return. Extinction.
There is a catch. In places like Afghan they had to operate under the hearts and minds bullshit. If shit goes down in the US, all hell breaks loose, there will be no regulations. The Romans knew how to handle insurgencies - it's not hearts and minds, it's salting the earth.

I hope it’s enough but I’ll keep pushing to get better prepared.

Well said young man, I’ve been telling whoever would listen basically the same thing.

From The Militia and Minute Men of 1775: Militiamen were required to be armed “as according to law.” This meant that they were to have “a well fixt Firelock Musket, of Musket (69-75 caliber) or Bastard Musket (50-60 caliber) Bore, the Barrel not less than Three Foot and a half long; or other good Fire Arms, to the Satisfaction of the commission officer of the company...” They were also expected to have twenty bullets fit to their gun, one pound of powder, twelve flints, and a cutting sword. Later, bayonets were required for at least half the men in each company. As with the training, fines were levied against those who failed to provide themselves with these arms. Ammunition was often carried in a cartridge box, a leather bag fitted with a wooden block with holes drilled in to accept a paper cartridge, a sealed tube of paper containing a measured amount of powder (enough for one shot) and a lead ball. Militiamen and minute men also had knapsacks, blankets and wooden canteens." Just doing our Patriotic duty and following historic tradition.

Funny I use to shoot in IPPSC competitions, a lot of the old timers would say, you need 3 months of food and 2000 rounds of ammo, I thought they were nuts! Now I don’t think 2000 is enough!
After working with some SF guys i have realized, in a direct head to head action you won't win against them, their tactics are like nothing the regular person has ever seen. you can read about it all you want, but actually seeing it is something else. the book Wrath of the Wendigo does a good job of summarizing how to fight them. to put it simply, you don't. if you do cause a mass casualty event that would make them think twice about deploying in any significant force.

i am 17 miles west of and 2.8 mi south of down town dallas friend. i am blind but i know lots of stuff. so i may be blind, but i know a few things about the big guy against the small one. chain reactions, chemicals redily available , for $50 one of these may be created, it will reach 7thousand degrees in 3 seconds and remain at that tempurature for another 4 seconds. all things within 5 feet will be turned into ash and carbon crystaline structures, basically that charred thing you left on the grill an hour too long, yup it will look like that. the chain goes like this, wax paper 1ft square, nagnetic ferrite 4oz, magnesium powder and granual 3.9oz, regular strike on box kitchen matches crushed into powder and granuals 3.9oz, black powder 1/2oz mix thouroughly. wrap wax paper and tape top so the mixture does not fall out.. get enough bubblegum that it can cover the wax paper, that $10 container at walmart is plenty. cew till all sugar is out, make an eggshell around the wax paper and seal without cracks set in thesun to dry and harden. once hard get a case of percussion caps and a drill bit the smallest diameter of those perccussion caps, drill holes all around the sphere, plce caps in all holes ad make sure holes go through the wax paper. seal caps in with clear spray paint. use n52 magnets inbetween the caps to make the sphere stick to metals. the magnetic ferrite inside will keep it all together. keep the sphere from hitting anything hard untill it is needed. when needed, throw at a hard surface , a firearm is a hard surface. the floor is a hard surface, be more than 15ft away when it hits a hard surface or lose your eyebrows for a month, be more than 7 feet from where it hits or get a 3rd degree sunburn in 7 seconds, bbe more than 5 feet away from where it hits or else you will not be worried aboutit anymore. that mushroom could isnot radioactive, but it will cook your meat in a few seconds, will melt metal and turn anything conbustible into gas and ash in a second, it will instantly cauterize any thing that survives the spheres rdius of heat. it willend the threat of a being that can regenerate or needs to be delt with by meas oth than lead. it will disable an m1 abrams tank if placed in the right place. it will stop a humvee or striker vehicle when the fuel turns into a gas instantly within a foot of the device. tht big burly operative will be in such shock that his end will come in just a second and a half. all his ammunition going off rght there in the mag. all his buddies will be no longer a threat, and that is even if they unalive you and you drop thesphere at their feet as they run by... good luck patriots. this is what i call a magnetic plasma sphere. it cost about $50 to make one. page 17 of the alphabet guys handbook on destructive devices only covers things with more than 4 oz of ma chemical that ignites or explodes, so make sure none of you use that much of those things K. so that you will be completely legal with this knowledge. tnk you, be safe, n the sphere will not explode at all, it will melt get to a thousand degrees F in half a second, and cobntinue getting hotter until at3264 F degrees the magnetic ferrite inside becomes unstable and self ignites and then untill all the magnetic ferrite is cinsumed, it will continue to grow more hot untill reaching 7200F degrees and staying there untill no magnetic ferrite remains. smils, this will happen so fast that a human cannot react to it fast enough to get away. imyself lost my eyebrows

First rule of a fire fight: Don’t get into a goddamn fire fight. If there’s a SHTF scenario I’m doing everything in my power to stay away from a firefight; I’m a veteran but not combat arms. My goal is to be more of a pioneer or a woodsman and outlast everyone else; even though I train to defend myself I’m not going to go out looking for a fight.
@@John-uy4jx That is a good philosophy to keep yourself alive for a while but sooner or later that fight will come to you. In your situation, the best thing you can do is help with logistics or medical aid. War fighters need supplies, food, water, and equipment.

Well said! Many Americans NEED TO HEAR THIS... I've read a lot of literature by former operator's and done a bit of research into what's going on in our county, so this didn't surprise me... Thank you for popping the "pink cloud" that so many preppers, patriots, and right of center folks have been floating on...
Having been in the Marines in the early 2010's, it is my firm opinion that the vast majority of our military personnel will follow any orders they receive.
Is there a possibility of mutinies happening in each branch at a moderate scale when SHTF? Will they be able to demonstrate combat effectiveness against a larger military once they become designated OpFor insurgents?
The underlying issue is that there will be people who will be contracted to infiltrate groups and gather info. Proper vetting is going to make or break the success of a lot of groups, so either keep your group small and lay low, or only let people you would trust beyond a doubt in. That, compounded with COMSEC.

Yeah except sof guys are chosen because they usually don’t fear death or ever give up. The cia and their sf buddies are not to be messed with, they know exactly what they’re doing, they are used to countering insurgents, they have learned from their mistakes and they have the advantage of tapping into information that they probably couldn’t have easily obtained in foreign countries. They’re probably getting details all sorts of threats with their security clearances that civilians would never have access to.

And yep there is nothing like when you see the shsdy shit right in front of your face when you are in Iraq and Afghanistan, the money floating around, kissing asses of some dirty ass warlord pieces of shit, made me go from a patriot to a cynic and opened my eyes to alot of things that didn't make sense
You’re still a patriot, just not for them. Life gets real when you face the uncomfortable truth that nobody wants to talk about. Keep that moral center bro, it serves you well.
Spot on amen brother money is evil so this is real how real like let’s start at 700 trillion of money to play with so help each other and learn what our four fathers had to go threw it’s history lesson number 3 coming for shore and it’s a slow moving storm this time not the fast storm good luck I have your back.
@@williambonk380 it is but unfortunately money will always sway the minds of those found wanting. It’s up to the individual. But I’d rather look myself in the mirror with a clear conscience and nothing hanging over my head. I don’t care how tough people think they are, not being able to be bought is an admirable trait a lot of people lack.
Since I was 9 years old I have been target shooting and never tactical training. Standing in one spot...plinking. Over the last 3 months I have been tactical training. Running with all my gear on. Switching between my rifle and pistol. Out of breathe, dropping on the ground, multiple targets...etc. If your still just standing and hitting targets....try it out of breathe with all your shit on.
You’re absolutely in the right there too. People don’t realize how much harder it is when you have 70+ LBS of gear on and huffing it likes it’s a COD match. Exactly why I wear full kit while playing airsoft or doing any sort of tactical training
For sure. Get your aim on point, once you've not missed in like 10 shots in a row, Its probably time to make it a little harder lol. I bought a .22 break barrel and I started training with that with the scope I use for my .300blk and after about a year of messing around shooting between 30 to 50 yards with the .22, my accuracy improved immensely, I don't sway as much. My breathing is more regulated. I can also hold a stance longer in a frozen position (not literally frozen in the open lol) if something ever were to be so serious were I couldn't take my eyes off the targe..
A couple points I would make: 1. For civil war to be “legal” you have to win. 2. To win there has to be millions that are onboard, basically to the point the government would be killing their own people and not labeled domestic terrorists. 3. Military guys vow to uphold the constitution. There would be a split. But only if the civil war is legitimate. If None of the above happens maybe in that order. You will get wrecked, labeled a terrorist, and either killed or locked away forever. Bonus points: 1. They would rarely use ground troops. They will likely drone strike and kill one side strategically. 2. They will put operatives in your ranks to feed information for targets. 3. They will use everything they learned in combating guerrilla warfare in Iraq and Afghanistan against you and after 20 years of experience, they’ve gotten it down to a science. Things to consider for those gung ho about starting a fight.
It shouldn't take long for them to realize it's not worth being slaughtered over petty ideological fabrications. Whenever somebody tells you there's a problem, ask yourself if they might be using you to solve a problem of their own
They're everywhere quietly awaiting the battle they hope will never come, but if it does, well, it only hurts for a few minutes and then you go to sleep. Pick the fights you can win and fight until you die.
especially when people are drinking the tap water and not prepping, the fluoride is working all too well.

Veteran Navy Seabee here! AR in my squad at the ACB2 while there. I’ve always felt it better to have an not need than to need and not have! My Psychologist thinks I’m paranoid.
I'm broken, man. My back and legs got wrecked in Ramadi in 2006. I got a kid and a wife to keep safe and my body and mind are a mess, and the VA hasn't helped too much in putting either back together. I don't know what to do when this stuff falls apart other than watch my front door with a rifle and pray.
Find a local community that can help or support you and you them. Find the vets who are in a similar situation and start building a relationship. The VA never helped my dad or my brother either but finding like minded people can. They are out there and are probably just waiting for someone to start the conversation. Trust me for my work I went to a different house almost everyday and many were homes of survivors just like you. They all had a story and were looking for someone to talk to. They all seemed to feel better after talking. Just an FYI. Praying for you to have strength and healing!! Thank you for your service!

I watched a documentary on the IRA once. For decades, they reaped havoc on the British military. At the most, at any time, they didn’t have more than 125 “soldiers. Usually less. One of their favorite silent weapons was a slingshot. Determination and a sense of protecting home at all cost.

Didn't get any hits even though they presented many targets that would have been easy hits with a rifle.

@adamtedder1012 the younger generation doesn't have a moral compass. You can say they're punks and they're nothing to fear, but they'll come in numbers and they're young and will learn from their mistakes. The older generation that still believes in our constitution republic are dying off...
@JOEL00111 nah. Nobody who fought in the wars is young. I'm 40 and I was 17 when I entered service, turned 19 while invading Iraq. Combat ops for the most part, ended in 07 in Iraq and 2014ish in Afghanistan. That means your actually saw combat vets are 30's and up.
100% gospel. Former active duty USMC grunt here. Grunts get briefed, believe what they're told, and look forward to a conflict. All they need is to hear you are a bad guy from someone telling them to go fight.
In Afghanistan my dudes and I lived on patrol bases in the korengal and pesch river valleys and no one gave two f's about uniform or drill discipline or hands or smoking doing anything- as long as you and your gear were mission ready for the next mountain patrol. Our patrol bases were tiny with no running water, showers, laundry, air-conditioning or heat. Once a month we'd go back to a small fob (asadabad) to refit, get showers and wash our stiff uniforms. Everyone there knew not to bother us about appearances or discipline. One time i had just got into asadabad and went straight to the chow hall and a visiting officer started to dress me down over my appearance and I just stared him down and just as he was about to go get help the rest of my squad came in looking the same way and he finally realized and walked away.
Us gov will drop anything using the comm bandwidths for known uav equipment if theres a domestic conflict. Freq hopping is the only way, but thats not exactly diy tech. It is technically but not easy
Don't worry about using drones, as the other guy said, the gov will render most of that stuff useless. Worry about their drones, and evading them. That will be the biggest threat you face, moreso even than any of these contract operator guys, of which there will not be enough to go around.
Shit my plan has been to put myself on that list so I can force whoever is spying on me to watch independent media sources with me as to face our current reality together. It feels like dragging a horse to water but seems worth a try. Thank you brother, glad to support your channel as of just now because I'm sure this should help me achieve this goal.
I'm one of those rightwing militia mountain men. I have put myself out there for 15 years now. Looking back I'm not sure it was worth it. People that have known me for 40 years now call me racist among other ridiculous things, because cnn and govenor witler said so. I guess all i can do is train and pray God makes me faster and harder. Thanks for this video. Whats your opinion on the bill to ban on militia training. God bless have a great day.
There's nothing wrong with being racist. Racism is the understanding that all stereotypes have a basis in reality, and the law of averages applies in all things. Being racist doesn't require you to actively harm anyone else, either. All it is, is admitting that objective reality exists. What they're doing by using that word the way they do is making a thinly-veiled attempt at making you police your own thoughts on their behalf; it's mind control. Because of its very nature as a mind control tactic, it's no wonder that literal Communists invented the word for the express purpose of leveraging it the way these people do on a daily basis. When someone calls me racist, I laugh and thank them for noticing; they generally have no idea what to do with that once they realize they have no power over me. Granted, it also helps that this platform is literally the extent of any/all social media I use. When you're an internet "ghost" there's nothing they can do to harm you in any way.
Congress has no enumerated power to destroy/infringe/abridge the militia, only, "To provide for organizing, arming, and disciplining," them; and, "To provide for calling forth the militia to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress Insurrections and REPEL INVASIONS." [emphasis mine] - NOT prevent execution of the laws nor aid in invasions!
I have the same problem. I don’t hate anyone but i get called a racist quite often because i don’t agree with the left. Fuck em. Let them think what they want. As far as the government outlawing training and militias, read the second amendment. Not only does it protect your right to bear arms, but also protects your right to organize into a militia.
I know things have been tough for a while, and it feels like we're all more divided than ever. But this mindset of constant conflict is a lose-lose for everyone. Life is meant to be lived and enjoyed, because in the end, we all share the same fate. Let's focus on giving our children the chance to live full, meaningful lives without the burdens of unnecessary conflict and negativity.
More likely this; You are hiding in the woods, mountains, or desert. There are aerial ISR operations in your AO. A drone equipped with FLIR spots your glowing silhouette. You are tracked by a systems operator as he reports your location, description, and demeanor. "I have a fighting age male, armed with a rifle, inside known terrorist AO, moving tactically and evasively". Inside a command center the staff scrutinize the drones feed on a large display. Some back and forth chatter crosses an encrypted frequency. At last, the command "Cleared Hot" is issued.
Theres no angels in the outfield. Minuteman dont mean shit if they cant rock and roll. The US only won the Revolutionary War when it organized and turned into a fighting force.
On top of having the body of an operator, having the mind of an operator is crucial. Not only do you gain the strengths, but you understand the weaknesses.
I'm a retired SFC. I served as a Ranger in 1st Bat and squad leader in all type infantry units. Taught at the Infantry School for a decade. I've said much the same thing for years to various prepper groups. I can't ruck or run like I used to. But I'm glad to work logistics.
Guarantee that if civil war breaks out the vast majority of military personnel will not kill fellow and innocent Americans. It’d never be the entire weight of the U.S. military on the entire civilian population. Even if that were the case - roughly 2 million personnel exist. With close to half being reserve. The vast majority of them are not combat personnel whether infantry special operations or whatever. I’ll be generous and say for this hypothetical about a quarter of that 2 million if even have any sort of combat training. US population is near 333 million. Roughly 5 guns to every house hold - the let’s say it’s GOP vs DNC with the military on the side of the DNC. DNC don’t like guns. So let’s say all those households were GOP specific - that’s 166 million and 10 guns to every household - the military would need to have about a 1:83 kd ratio against HEAVILY armed combatants. That’s assuming all 2 million personnel were fighting. 1:332 KD ratio for combat roles assuming 500,000 combat personnel(which I doubt there is just being generous) 1:664 if at least half of the military defected and assuming none of the defectors joined the opposing side And finally with a quick google search estimating 70k special operations personnel (which again not all are boots on the ground but assuming they were) They’d need to have about a 1:2371 kd. Let’s say they only need to wipe out half of that to achieve total victory in a civil war. That’s 1:1186. Now, let’s use your example of the “at least 2% will be blood thirst contract killer seals” - well - I’ll be using 2% of 70k for this example, but - there are no where near 70k tier 1 operators, I don’t think any source will be accurate for how many there are but I promise you it is not 70k. Probably not even 20k. Anyways - 2% of 70k = 1400 - for each contract operator that gives 0 shits about anything about money - it would be a 1:118,571. Let’s say 1/8 of the 166 million (half the country) was the fighting force in the hypothetical civil war. That’s 20,750,000. That’s still 1:14821. The highest confirmed kill count in the entire history of the country was 2,746. Using a tank. Completely not suitable for a civil war in the U.S. in today’s era, but let’s entertain that. Say - all 1,400 had a minimum kill count of 2,746 - that’s 3,844,400. Barely a dent in 20,750,000. There’s no way that these contract seals will each have their own tank and crew - let alone kill that many. I’d say maybe a couple hundred tops per individual. 1/16 of the 166,000,000 = 10,375,000. 10,375,000 - 3,844,400 = 6,530,600 Now Let’s use a more probable and fair estimate of this hypothetical civil war using 1/16 of 1/2 of the country with some Chris Kyle numbers. Let’s go with his estimate of 340 something kills (most unconfirmed) this would leave us at a 1:30,514 contract killer versus boog bois. That’s about 13x as much as the most recorded kills ever - 2,746. Bottom line is - no - these people are not Gods. They will never individually kill 30k people. They will not “fuck all of our shit up” they may shoot and kill your buds Jimmy and Steve, and maybe a couple Tom’s, but they will all go down extraordinarily quickly when the numbers are as stacked against them as they are. So no friend, I’m not worried about the
People also forget that in the event of a full blown civil war that the military itself is very likely also split and will spend some amount of time fighting itself.
The left has the federal reserve and can print money forever buying every mercenary they want. Also china pays off most of the left leaders so they would have full intel of battle locations of both sides. Could sweep us on the cheap
When covid hit the sheriff's in appalchia got w citizens cuz they were pressing hard again trying to scheme again on taking our guns they mentioned tht and we formed militias tht day w the good ole boys in rural appalchia and thru the south it was epic do I trust it nope but atleasy it's hope in it
What everyone keeps forgetting is that our military and many other nations' militarys rely heavily on the civilian production industry. It would be a war of attrition if not total deflection on the part of many indistries that our goverment relys on for curcial logistics and resupply, in mincraft of course.
TRAIN like it matters, STUDY tactics and theory, PRACTICE like a professional, ACT like an adult, DRESS like a respectable human - and you'll be prepared for anything and you'll be deadly and unsuspecting
There are about 16 M hunting licenses sold every year. Many of those hunters sit in a stand /hide and basically snipe their prey. That means we have millions of snipers. Granted we typically don’t shoot beyond 500 yards but I have taken elk at 500 yards. Hard for an operator to sneak up on that.
Just remember that a simple country like AFGHANISTAN has NEVER BEEN CONQUERED by any invading LOW TECH/HIGH TECH ARMIES THE most dangerous animals are ones that are cornered with NOTHING LEFT TO LOSE BUT THEIR LIVES ...

As someone who would probably be considered your enemy in a civil war in a completely different type of conflict scenario, this is video is really good at getting educating people on what your foe’s “gov” would be. Paid mercs definitely everywhere. Non conventional guerrilla tactics are the way to go against mercs and military forces with superior weapons. Hopefully though non of these scenarios actually become our reality.
100% Real deal, Randall. I'm more than a little out of shape. After seeing some of your videos esp, the rucking and on other sites, got to me to thinking, so got off my duff and started walking like you said in the rucking vids. I know I don't have a great chance of surviving through what is certainly coming but I've decided I ain't gonna be low fruit on tree. Thank you for the eye opener.
Watch the Ukraine war. The Russians have a drone operator that is at over a 250 body count. It's also why I disagree to a certain extent with the diversity higher in blue haired comment in the video. They'll have these video game kids drone bombing us and acting like it's Call of Duty
You're forgetting about the other 13,000,000 combat vets walking the streets today who are supporters of the cause. Those are the ones WE are training with, and most WERE operators...
There aren't 13,000,000 combat vets dude. Lol. And definitely none of them with actual experience. And even LESS of them operators. If these numbers were real Iraq and Afghanistan wouldn't exist today.
@@paddypibblet846 every vet from the gulf War to present who were deployed... Bet. I didnt say operators. I said COMBAT VETS.

A bunch of third world rice farmers held the fucking world at Bay for over 25 years, and the day we pulled out, they were overran with communism. Our military isn't shit compared to those Vietnam vets... We aren't nearly as bad ass as everyone wants to think. Half of the current military doesn't even know which latrine to use. Now, before you open your dick skinner again, know that I spent 22 years, 7 months, and 16 days in, and retired in 2005.
@@jeggshutzel1233 It's called basic statistics. Look it up bozo. You think there's 13,000,000 million ex operators all with combat experience living in the USA currently? Check the percentages of how many soldiers exist currently, and then check to see how many of those are from a combat arms MOS
There will always be "turds" who's loyalty lies with money and not country. During my 25 yr in the Corps, I watched a ton of good Marines leave for the very contractor jobs you speak of. Our fighting units were hurting because all the experience, just up and left for money. As a Marine with 25 years of infantry experience, I will fight for America; my oath has not expired. Rest assured, I will be right next to you my brother!
Nah. I left because I can't stand the pony show. Watched an e7 get a bronze star (no V device) for watching locals put up a DFAC. Helped pull our asses out of multiple fubar situations and I got a WHOLE coin. F*CK the current military.
You brought up a very good point that I never considered, the federal government hiring mercenaries to fight in a civil war. They totally would do that. They have always needed people to do horrible things with deniability. Just look at Blackwater and Wagner
That's what I've been trying to tell people. The "government" or the "military" isn't some magical force. They are organizations of people just like you or me. They live, breathe, and bleed just like any human. They are just as fragile as any other human. They die just as easily when shot in the face.
I came to a similar realization when talking to someone who serves. He reaches out to combatants from long distance while not being seen. He is been on QRF numerous times for numerous reasons. The one of the most eye opening was about the Texas National Guard protecting the border. He mentioned he could have been deployed to go against them when Biden was telling Texas to back off from the border. So I can see where this would happen and he is right some will just flip the switch and others will not but it would happen. House to house would be an unattainable situation like Iraq and Afghanistan as many have stated but the government has the air, airwaves, electrical grids, water source and food supplies. They could make it real bad for the majority of the US we have seen that already and to the few who would go down fighting Virtūs et Honos! Thank you all who served and serve I personally will always be grateful!! God Bless!!

@@rambamish I best recommend the DJI mavic drones : These were the first drones that Ukrainians used to destroy Russian tanks, so it's already been tested on combat,they're the best around here. Mainstream Media will never tell you that it's a Chinese Company and that they own most of the FPV drone market share. Unfortunately they've been blacklisted for providing Russia the very same drones, forcing Dji to cancel and ban orders from both these countries as they don't want to end up like Huawei.
Just food for thought... I have met guys who were actually prepping, to rob preppers in a SHTF situation. I asked them why they don't just prep on their own? I was told (paraphrased) "why should I store/prep stuff when I can just take it from someone who already did the work for me?". These people are buying ARs. They exist. Don't underestimate an enemy combatant with a gun in a war by thinking they're harmless cuz they've got neon green hair dye.
That's exactly what I tell people will happen to their hoard of guns, ammo, and food if something really went down and why there's no reason to stockpile too much. A lot of people are making a serious error in thinking there would only be two sides. In reality, there will be like 50+ sides and the guys that try robbing people will be in turn ambushed by someone else who will in turn be fooled by someone else who will be in turn burnt out by someone else and so on.
Every man has to carry his own weight. The more we sweat training, the less we bleed fighting. Diplomacy is the best route but when that fails you must be seriously prepared to defend your family
That’s why you target the logistical support. Can’t get the guy in the field? Get his family, get the truck driver moving supplies, get the clerk processing his pay check, get the mechanic maintaining the fleet, get the contractors building the temporary housing, get the workers running the chow hall
Every weapon in service can be operated by veterans. In the movies, they bypass endless dead enemy's equipment. In reality, the weapon that was fired at you can fire at them. If I'm running low on ammo, I'm picking up somebody else's and continuing the fight.
something that people should look into if they want to be effective in conflict with an overmatch force such as the us military, is thermal evasion. thermal evasion is going to be important. look into thermal resistant clothing, methods of covering your thermal signature with mud and water. drone detection, learn the sounds of them, because once the eye or sauron has you, it could be over for you if you cant run hard and long.
During the Winter of 1976/77 I fought in the Angolan Civil War for UNITA. We fought as a company strength guerilla unit consisting of European and about 75% indigenous troops. We were moving constantly, dodging Hinds and the occasional motorized Government (FAPLA) and Cuban troops, while at the same time trying to set ambushes and raids to prevent them from establishing forward command and communication bases. The locals were pretty much pro Savimbi and we got lots of current information from them. From taking part in this, I learned that inserting yourself into someone else's civil war is not the best of plans. Their civil war was mind numbingly brutal. I saw and did shit that I would pay money to not remember, of course we all know that it doesn't work that way. The Angolan Civil War went on continuously for 27 years. It makes me wonder how long ours would go on for............and what the end result would be.

Interesting, you forgot one little thingy, called the third line or front.

They will not give two 's about, if you are right wing or left, Demon Cat or REPO., they will give you small arms and explosives, up the gazoo, and would likely rather deal with people who are law abiding MAGA boys and girls. Don't forget Russia is a Christian so-called State now. They will split the Excited States right down the middle with any UNcivil War. West Coast Canada etc for CHINA, Alaska and rest of USA for Russia The Civil War will be one of Rural vs Urban and in many States the National Guard has now become the State Guard, as in Florida and Texas.

The conventional army loses if it does not win. The guerrilla wins if he does not lose. -Henry Kissinger
And now I need a heart pill.
It's true. But it's also true when fighting an ideology it usually turns into a democide.
I despise Kissinger. But the quote is perfect.
Kissinger "The Minister of Death".
Because with conventional armies there's a line that, once crossed, means the army is no more. But the soldiers are still there and then the soldiers then become guerrillas.
55 years ago, I fought against a group of gorilla fighters/patriots, who successfully defend their country against foreign ideology, as well as against the premier military power on the planet.
I lost, and so did my military forces, the best in the world !!!
Some how the courage, and correctness of these patriots/believers in their cause won the war !!!
My Son lost his life, fighting against another gorilla force, this time in Afghanistan, another country that had never submitted to a foreign power in all of history.
Is any one foolish enough to think, that American patriots will not defend our homes against any and all enemies foreign or domestic ???
While it will not be my fight. At 74 years of age, and with cancer, caused by agent orange, having pretty well removed me from direct combat. I will still defend my home and family as best I can.
I will never surrender, and I will never retreat.
I am an American.

@@MrTIGERH1752 There is hope. God became a human as Jesus and died to take the penalty for everything wrong you’ve ever done, then rose again. Sin is disobedience to how God tells us to live (mainly in the New Testament). If you want to be with him for eternity and be saved from hell, believe in him and what he did (John 3:16), and turn away from habits of sin (Luke 13:3). Your actions are evidence for whether your faith is real (James 2:17), but you’re not saved by your actions directly, only by God’s mercy (Ephesians 2:8-9). We all mess up and sin, so when you do, just confess your sin to God (1 John 1:9) and continue on fighting. It won’t make life easy, but God can give you hope. By the way, I hope you have a great day!
Thank you for your service. Be safe out there.

I wouldn't carry less than 10 mags in any kind of combat. You can still be pretty dang fit in your 40s. Saw a Vietnam vet in his 70s kicking ass fitness-wise here on youtube. Have to see it to believe it.
I'm almost 60, an old LRRS guy from '85-'93.
We allways carried 20 magazines standard, usualy MG belts, frags, smokes, flares, 40mm and at least one claymore mine...SOP. That's what rucks and bandoliers are for. The Ruck usually weighed 80+lbs. I'm a spinal Cord Injury Disabled guy today with 3 surgeries at L5S1 where the kidney pad on the ALICE ruck goes.
These days, I still hump up and down my ridge here in the Ozarks. (I use a pack other than the ALICE that crippled me.) I can still do what I did 30+yrs ago... I just can't sustain it day after day. I absolutely require recovery time... and I really need my sleep these days. I also can't go without food like I used to. If I don't eat every 12hrs or so, my body starts shutting down.

Boots with no arch support, rucks that cripple guys...oh, and if the disability wasn't obvious before discharge...it's not a Line of Duty injury and you're on your own.

They just melt away and disappear back into the general population to fight another day.

Couple that with the last couple years, AI, drones, etc. Won't be easy that's for sure.

Fight dirty even, if necessary

I know many military vets, especially in San Antonio and Milwaukee. What this man is saying is true. Most of my high school teachers back in the 90s were mostly Vietnam & first Gulf War vets. I graduated in 99, before I did I remember this one time when this so-called Latin King threatened my shop teacher, Mr.Wagner, and he grabbed this punk ass kid and told him “If the US government given a check to kill your ass & I would do it without pause”. The kid's reaction was a dead silent look and Mr. Wagner's eyes had a dull dark look as if nothing else mattered. Mr.Wagner was a Marine during the Vietnam War. I don't use the word ex because it never goes away but it becomes you.

Yeah, I may be older than some smart-ass 20-something twerp....but those Mother-F'n pussies will NEVER SURVIVE how I grew up as a kid 50, 60 years ago.
Well said. I was 22 years army airborne infantry with 5 deployments to Afghanistan and Iraq. I thought I was pretty damn good. Took only a few weeks to dispel that notion. I spent a year with a high speed unit. The first few weeks of that showed me how much different “the other side” worked. Later on, I showed up to a selection in top physical shape, only to realize that it wasn’t anywhere near good enough.
I’m proud of my service and I AM (or was) pretty damn good. But SOF is a whole different world. A whole different beast. Like he said, most of the guys I met are stand up, grade A dudes. I’d gladly serve with them again if they’d have me. But those days are long gone. Gonna be 50 in a little while. My running and gunning days are over. I can still shoot, but I’m no sniper. Learn a different skill. Stay in shape as best you can. I don’t want a civil war to pop off. I don’t think anyone really wants one except the psychos and the elites.

@@blackatrium Yes, but there are thousands of units with thousands of NCOs running them. And only a handful of politicians that are would-be high value targets. While it is important to have units dealing with enemy units out in the field it is also important to have smaller clandestine units dealing with politicians in their homes or wherever they are hiding.
Otherwise, what's the point? At the end of the day those soldiers and NCOs you face out in the field aren't the ones making the policies that result in everything going to shit. If you can stop the enemy from advancing on your village, cool.
But unless you wipe out their village, they're just going to continue sending more to wipe out yours.

The difference, however, is the rules of engagement. In those conflicts, soldiers hands are intentionally tied so as to prolong the war. Which in turn creates more profits for the military-industrial complex or otherwise achieves some politically-motivated goal.
A domestic conflict, by contrast, will be different. It will be no-holds-barred orders to exterminate with extreme prejudice. I'm not saying that means an automatic win for "them", but it does mean that we can't use previous overseas conflicts as a template for how things would go down domestically; at least not exclusively.
There's certainly lessons to be learned studying unconventional asymmetric warfare; agreed 100%. Just don't assume a domestic conflict is going to play out the same as the conflicts in Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan; it will be its own beast.

From The Militia and Minute Men of 1775: Militiamen were required to be armed “as according to law.” This meant that they were to have “a well fixt Firelock Musket, of Musket (69-75 caliber) or Bastard Musket (50-60 caliber) Bore, the Barrel not less than Three Foot and a half long; or other good Fire Arms, to the Satisfaction of the commission officer of the company...” They were also expected to have twenty bullets fit to their gun, one pound of powder, twelve flints, and a cutting sword. Later, bayonets were required for at least half the men in each company. As with the training, fines were levied against those who failed to provide themselves with these arms.
Ammunition was often carried in a cartridge box, a leather bag fitted with a wooden block with holes drilled in to accept a paper cartridge, a sealed tube of paper containing a measured amount of powder (enough for one shot) and a lead ball. Militiamen and minute men also had knapsacks, blankets and wooden canteens."

After working with some SF guys i have realized, in a direct head to head action you won't win against them, their tactics are like nothing the regular person has ever seen. you can read about it all you want, but actually seeing it is something else. the book Wrath of the Wendigo does a good job of summarizing how to fight them. to put it simply, you don't. if you do cause a mass casualty event that would make them think twice about deploying in any significant force.

mix thouroughly. wrap wax paper and tape top so the mixture does not fall out..
get enough bubblegum that it can cover the wax paper, that $10 container at walmart is plenty.
cew till all sugar is out,
make an eggshell around the wax paper and seal without cracks set in thesun to dry and harden.
once hard get a case of percussion caps and a drill bit the smallest diameter of those perccussion caps,
drill holes all around the sphere,
plce caps in all holes ad make sure holes go through the wax paper.
seal caps in with clear spray paint.
use n52 magnets inbetween the caps to make the sphere stick to metals. the magnetic ferrite inside will keep it all together.
keep the sphere from hitting anything hard untill it is needed.
when needed, throw at a hard surface , a firearm is a hard surface. the floor is a hard surface,
be more than 15ft away when it hits a hard surface or lose your eyebrows for a month,
be more than 7 feet from where it hits or get a 3rd degree sunburn in 7 seconds,
bbe more than 5 feet away from where it hits or else you will not be worried aboutit anymore.
that mushroom could isnot radioactive, but it will cook your meat in a few seconds, will melt metal and turn anything conbustible into gas and ash in a second, it will instantly cauterize any thing that survives the spheres rdius of heat.
it willend the threat of a being that can regenerate or needs to be delt with by meas oth than lead.
it will disable an m1 abrams tank if placed in the right place.
it will stop a humvee or striker vehicle when the fuel turns into a gas instantly within a foot of the device.

it cost about $50 to make one. page 17 of the alphabet guys handbook on destructive devices only covers things with more than 4 oz of ma chemical that ignites or explodes, so make sure none of you use that much of those things K.
so that you will be completely legal with this knowledge.
tnk you, be safe, n the sphere will not explode at all, it will melt get to a thousand degrees F in half a second, and cobntinue getting hotter until at3264 F degrees the magnetic ferrite inside becomes unstable and self ignites and then untill all the magnetic ferrite is cinsumed, it will continue to grow more hot untill reaching 7200F degrees and staying there untill no magnetic ferrite remains.
smils, this will happen so fast that a human cannot react to it fast enough to get away.

Truth.
First rule of a fire fight: Don’t get into a goddamn fire fight.
If there’s a SHTF scenario I’m doing everything in my power to stay away from a firefight; I’m a veteran but not combat arms. My goal is to be more of a pioneer or a woodsman and outlast everyone else; even though I train to defend myself I’m not going to go out looking for a fight.
I'm running with this advice.
It will eventually come looking for you
@@John-uy4jx That is a good philosophy to keep yourself alive for a while but sooner or later that fight will come to you.
In your situation, the best thing you can do is help with logistics or medical aid. War fighters need supplies, food, water, and equipment. The ones who do go looking for a fight still need to eat ,sleep, and load mags. Why not help them fight but still aid in keeping the fight out of your area.
good that means you are sane.
@@Savage_Thinker I wouldn’t go that far.
Well said! Many Americans NEED TO HEAR THIS... I've read a lot of literature by former operator's and done a bit of research into what's going on in our county, so this didn't surprise me...

Having been in the Marines in the early 2010's, it is my firm opinion that the vast majority of our military personnel will follow any orders they receive.
Absolutely they will. So will the police. Assuming there isn't a catastrophe and they aren't running home to protect their families first.
That’s disappointing to hear
Is there a possibility of mutinies happening in each branch at a moderate scale when SHTF? Will they be able to demonstrate combat effectiveness against a larger military once they become designated OpFor insurgents?
Was in the AF for over a decade, you're absolutely correct.
Remember, they have families too, and homes, remember that…
The underlying issue is that there will be people who will be contracted to infiltrate groups and gather info. Proper vetting is going to make or break the success of a lot of groups, so either keep your group small and lay low, or only let people you would trust beyond a doubt in. That, compounded with COMSEC.

Since I was 9 years old I have been target shooting and never tactical training. Standing in one spot...plinking. Over the last 3 months I have been tactical training. Running with all my gear on. Switching between my rifle and pistol. Out of breathe, dropping on the ground, multiple targets...etc. If your still just standing and hitting targets....try it out of breathe with all your shit on.
You’re absolutely in the right there too. People don’t realize how much harder it is when you have 70+ LBS of gear on and huffing it likes it’s a COD match. Exactly why I wear full kit while playing airsoft or doing any sort of tactical training
For sure. Get your aim on point, once you've not missed in like 10 shots in a row, Its probably time to make it a little harder lol.
I bought a .22 break barrel and I started training with that with the scope I use for my .300blk and after about a year of messing around shooting between 30 to 50 yards with the .22, my accuracy improved immensely, I don't sway as much. My breathing is more regulated. I can also hold a stance longer in a frozen position (not literally frozen in the open lol) if something ever were to be so serious were I couldn't take my eyes off the targe..
where is your training against ACTUAL feds? stop LARPING.
A couple points I would make:
1. For civil war to be “legal” you have to win.
2. To win there has to be millions that are onboard, basically to the point the government would be killing their own people and not labeled domestic terrorists.
3. Military guys vow to uphold the constitution. There would be a split. But only if the civil war is legitimate.
If None of the above happens maybe in that order. You will get wrecked, labeled a terrorist, and either killed or locked away forever.
Bonus points:
1. They would rarely use ground troops. They will likely drone strike and kill one side strategically.
2. They will put operatives in your ranks to feed information for targets.
3. They will use everything they learned in combating guerrilla warfare in Iraq and Afghanistan against you and after 20 years of experience, they’ve gotten it down to a science.
Things to consider for those gung ho about starting a fight.
The only smart one in the whole chat
"Military guys vow to uphold the constitution"
Constitution my ass, all they care about is their paycheck.
"Legitimate" depends on who own the media. Almost every major event that has gone down has had its legitimacy created and propagated by the media.
It shouldn't take long for them to realize it's not worth being slaughtered over petty ideological fabrications. Whenever somebody tells you there's a problem, ask yourself if they might be using you to solve a problem of their own

In Afghanistan my dudes and I lived on patrol bases in the korengal and pesch river valleys and no one gave two f's about uniform or drill discipline or hands or smoking doing anything- as long as you and your gear were mission ready for the next mountain patrol. Our patrol bases were tiny with no running water, showers, laundry, air-conditioning or heat. Once a month we'd go back to a small fob (asadabad) to refit, get showers and wash our stiff uniforms. Everyone there knew not to bother us about appearances or discipline. One time i had just got into asadabad and went straight to the chow hall and a visiting officer started to dress me down over my appearance and I just stared him down and just as he was about to go get help the rest of my squad came in looking the same way and he finally realized and walked away.

There's nothing wrong with being racist.
Racism is the understanding that all stereotypes have a basis in reality, and the law of averages applies in all things.
Being racist doesn't require you to actively harm anyone else, either. All it is, is admitting that objective reality exists. What they're doing by using that word the way they do is making a thinly-veiled attempt at making you police your own thoughts on their behalf; it's mind control.
Because of its very nature as a mind control tactic, it's no wonder that literal Communists invented the word for the express purpose of leveraging it the way these people do on a daily basis.
When someone calls me racist, I laugh and thank them for noticing; they generally have no idea what to do with that once they realize they have no power over me.
Granted, it also helps that this platform is literally the extent of any/all social media I use. When you're an internet "ghost" there's nothing they can do to harm you in any way.

Do you have any insight on the gangstalking epidemic in this country?
Guarantee that if civil war breaks out the vast majority of military personnel will not kill fellow and innocent Americans. It’d never be the entire weight of the U.S. military on the entire civilian population.
Even if that were the case - roughly 2 million personnel exist. With close to half being reserve. The vast majority of them are not combat personnel whether infantry special operations or whatever. I’ll be generous and say for this hypothetical about a quarter of that 2 million if even have any sort of combat training.
US population is near 333 million. Roughly 5 guns to every house hold - the let’s say it’s GOP vs DNC with the military on the side of the DNC. DNC don’t like guns. So let’s say all those households were GOP specific - that’s 166 million and 10 guns to every household - the military would need to have about a 1:83 kd ratio against HEAVILY armed combatants. That’s assuming all 2 million personnel were fighting.
1:332 KD ratio for combat roles assuming 500,000 combat personnel(which I doubt there is just being generous)
1:664 if at least half of the military defected and assuming none of the defectors joined the opposing side
And finally with a quick google search estimating 70k special operations personnel (which again not all are boots on the ground but assuming they were)
They’d need to have about a 1:2371 kd.
Let’s say they only need to wipe out half of that to achieve total victory in a civil war. That’s 1:1186.
Now, let’s use your example of the “at least 2% will be blood thirst contract killer seals” - well - I’ll be using 2% of 70k for this example, but - there are no where near 70k tier 1 operators, I don’t think any source will be accurate for how many there are but I promise you it is not 70k. Probably not even 20k.
Anyways - 2% of 70k = 1400
- for each contract operator that gives 0 shits about anything about money - it would be a 1:118,571.
Let’s say 1/8 of the 166 million (half the country) was the fighting force in the hypothetical civil war.
That’s 20,750,000.
That’s still 1:14821. The highest confirmed kill count in the entire history of the country was 2,746. Using a tank. Completely not suitable for a civil war in the U.S. in today’s era, but let’s entertain that.
Say - all 1,400 had a minimum kill count of 2,746 - that’s 3,844,400. Barely a dent in 20,750,000. There’s no way that these contract seals will each have their own tank and crew - let alone kill that many. I’d say maybe a couple hundred tops per individual.
1/16 of the 166,000,000 = 10,375,000.
10,375,000 - 3,844,400 = 6,530,600
Now
Let’s use a more probable and fair estimate of this hypothetical civil war using 1/16 of 1/2 of the country with some Chris Kyle numbers. Let’s go with his estimate of 340 something kills (most unconfirmed) this would leave us at a 1:30,514 contract killer versus boog bois. That’s about 13x as much as the most recorded kills ever - 2,746.
Bottom line is - no - these people are not Gods. They will never individually kill 30k people. They will not “fuck all of our shit up” they may shoot and kill your buds Jimmy and Steve, and maybe a couple Tom’s, but they will all go down extraordinarily quickly when the numbers are as stacked against them as they are.
So no friend, I’m not worried about the
People also forget that in the event of a full blown civil war that the military itself is very likely also split and will spend some amount of time fighting itself.
The left has the federal reserve and can print money forever buying every mercenary they want. Also china pays off most of the left leaders so they would have full intel of battle locations of both sides. Could sweep us on the cheap

Watch the Ukraine war. The Russians have a drone operator that is at over a 250 body count. It's also why I disagree to a certain extent with the diversity higher in blue haired comment in the video. They'll have these video game kids drone bombing us and acting like it's Call of Duty
You're forgetting about the other 13,000,000 combat vets walking the streets today who are supporters of the cause. Those are the ones WE are training with, and most WERE operators...
There aren't 13,000,000 combat vets dude. Lol. And definitely none of them with actual experience. And even LESS of them operators. If these numbers were real Iraq and Afghanistan wouldn't exist today.
@@paddypibblet846 every vet from the gulf War to present who were deployed... Bet. I didnt say operators. I said COMBAT VETS. Russia fought the Afghans for over 12 years, and didn't gain a fucking inch. You're pretty arrogant to think tge US Military is all mighty, bud. Look at Vietnam. A bunch of third world rice farmers held the fucking world at Bay for over 25 years, and the day we pulled out, they were overran with communism. Our military isn't shit compared to those Vietnam vets... We aren't nearly as bad ass as everyone wants to think. Half of the current military doesn't even know which latrine to use. Now, before you open your dick skinner again, know that I spent 22 years, 7 months, and 16 days in, and retired in 2005.
@@paddypibblet846 ... Arrogance... Pure arrogance
@@jeggshutzel1233 It's called basic statistics. Look it up bozo. You think there's 13,000,000 million ex operators all with combat experience living in the USA currently? Check the percentages of how many soldiers exist currently, and then check to see how many of those are from a combat arms MOS

There will always be "turds" who's loyalty lies with money and not country. During my 25 yr in the Corps, I watched a ton of good Marines leave for the very contractor jobs you speak of. Our fighting units were hurting because all the experience, just up and left for money.
As a Marine with 25 years of infantry experience, I will fight for America; my oath has not expired.
Rest assured, I will be right next to you my brother!
I wouldn’t fight for our politicians
You have to have National pride for that, but that's "racist," lol.
@@bannedfordays.5101You sure you're not autistic?😝
Nah. I left because I can't stand the pony show. Watched an e7 get a bronze star (no V device) for watching locals put up a DFAC. Helped pull our asses out of multiple fubar situations and I got a WHOLE coin. F*CK the current military.
dude most of those contractors are the same as the normal dudes. They aren't evil.
You brought up a very good point that I never considered, the federal government hiring mercenaries to fight in a civil war. They totally would do that. They have always needed people to do horrible things with deniability. Just look at Blackwater and Wagner
Good shit. When they come, they come. I won't surrender, I won't die on my knees! These contract chasers ARE NOT invincible!
That's what I've been trying to tell people. The "government" or the "military" isn't some magical force. They are organizations of people just like you or me. They live, breathe, and bleed just like any human. They are just as fragile as any other human. They die just as easily when shot in the face.

@@paulsturgill8848 but he’s 100% right. Every man has weakness. As long as you are willing to fight and die then any enemy will suffer casualties.
I came to a similar realization when talking to someone who serves. He reaches out to combatants from long distance while not being seen. He is been on QRF numerous times for numerous reasons. The one of the most eye opening was about the Texas National Guard protecting the border. He mentioned he could have been deployed to go against them when Biden was telling Texas to back off from the border. So I can see where this would happen and he is right some will just flip the switch and others will not but it would happen. House to house would be an unattainable situation like Iraq and Afghanistan as many have stated but the government has the air, airwaves, electrical grids, water source and food supplies. They could make it real bad for the majority of the US we have seen that already and to the few who would go down fighting Virtūs et Honos! Thank you all who served and serve I personally will always be grateful!! God Bless!!

Cool description of veterans while drinking your Miller Lite, bro.
Time to learn how to fly drones, yall.
@@rambamish oh and also learn how electronics work as well and maybe some engineering skills and before you know it, you’ll be making “toys” made of pvc pipes with balsa wood powered by a propeller with some “nitrate”

I best recommend the DJI mavic drones :
These were the first drones that Ukrainians used to destroy Russian tanks, so it's already been tested on combat,they're the best around here.
Mainstream Media will never tell you that it's a Chinese Company and that they own most of the FPV drone market share.
Unfortunately they've been blacklisted for providing Russia the very same drones, forcing Dji to cancel and ban orders from both these countries as they don't want to end up like Huawei.
Or buy a dji drone from Temu 💀
I've seen your channel around and enjoyed some of those videos. This earned a sub for being the realist, down to earth talk I've heard in some time.
Most guys don’t realize how many rounds they will go through in suppressing fire
You can never have enough ammunition in a fight.
Just food for thought... I have met guys who were actually prepping, to rob preppers in a SHTF situation.
I asked them why they don't just prep on their own? I was told (paraphrased) "why should I store/prep stuff when I can just take it from someone who already did the work for me?". These people are buying ARs. They exist.
Don't underestimate an enemy combatant with a gun in a war by thinking they're harmless cuz they've got neon green hair dye.
@@thesanfranciscoseahorse473 there's a large amount of people that have been waiting and wanting something like this to happen.
That's exactly what I tell people will happen to their hoard of guns, ammo, and food if something really went down and why there's no reason to stockpile too much. A lot of people are making a serious error in thinking there would only be two sides. In reality, there will be like 50+ sides and the guys that try robbing people will be in turn ambushed by someone else who will in turn be fooled by someone else who will be in turn burnt out by someone else and so on.

What's the difference between getting hit in the neck by a green hair or a green beret? Nothing.
Every man has to carry his own weight. The more we sweat training, the less we bleed fighting. Diplomacy is the best route but when that fails you must be seriously prepared to defend your family
Yea man you ain’t kiddin. And it’s a horrifying reality. The amount of tactical and logistical support we would be working against is unbelievable
That’s why you target the logistical support. Can’t get the guy in the field? Get his family, get the truck driver moving supplies, get the clerk processing his pay check, get the mechanic maintaining the fleet, get the contractors building the temporary housing, get the workers running the chow hall
@@MisbehavedLibertyexactly. Hit and run.
Every weapon in service can be operated by veterans. In the movies, they bypass endless dead enemy's equipment. In reality, the weapon that was fired at you can fire at them. If I'm running low on ammo, I'm picking up somebody else's and continuing the fight.
@@MisbehavedLibertyHonestly you'll do more damage just taking out the pay people than making full assaults.
something that people should look into if they want to be effective in conflict with an overmatch force such as the us military, is thermal evasion. thermal evasion is going to be important. look into thermal resistant clothing, methods of covering your thermal signature with mud and water. drone detection, learn the sounds of them, because once the eye or sauron has you, it could be over for you if you cant run hard and long.
There is no thermal evasion. Real life whoever beats you to detection is putting a hole in you
Mud doesn't help against thermals

During the Winter of 1976/77 I fought in the Angolan Civil War for UNITA. We fought as a company strength guerilla unit consisting of European and about 75% indigenous troops. We were moving constantly, dodging Hinds and the occasional motorized Government (FAPLA) and Cuban troops, while at the same time trying to set ambushes and raids to prevent them from establishing forward command and communication bases. The locals were pretty much pro Savimbi and we got lots of current information from them. From taking part in this, I learned that inserting yourself into someone else's civil war is not the best of plans. Their civil war was mind numbingly brutal. I saw and did shit that I would pay money to not remember, of course we all know that it doesn't work that way. The Angolan Civil War went on continuously for 27 years. It makes me wonder how long ours would go on for............and what the end result would be.
