The Entire Cadre Of Statists – Including In The SpecOps Community – Is A Danger To Life And Liberty

BY Herschel Smith
1 year, 10 months ago

Reader Ned linked this piece where the following video is embedded.  He is discussing door breaching.  This comes to you via GBRS Group.

This is remarkable.

“Worst case is some dude’s barricaded internal doors, has got like, [ … ] steel hollow core shit going on …  this weird … in his house because he’s a weirdo and a prepper and a threeper that hates cops and he’s trying to suck you in and kill you, right?”

First of all, he needs to learn to speak English.  He is an uneducated buffoon.  He needs to engage his brain before he engages his big mouth.

Second, he appears to comport well with the stated mission of the company.

… TIER 1 TACTICAL TRAINING, EQUIPMENT AND BRAND CONSULTING COMPANY FOCUSED ON PROVIDING STATE-OF-THE-ART TACTICAL TRAINING AND TECHNIQUES TO END-USERS IN MILITARY, FEDERAL, STATE, AND LOCAL SPECIAL OPERATIONS UNITS. WE STRONGLY BELIEVE THERE IS AN EVER INCREASING THRESHOLD OF TRAINING EXCELLENCE THAT ONLY REAL WORLD EXPERIENCE AND LEARNINGS CAN PROVIDE. WE CARE DEEPLY ABOUT THE LIVES OF TODAY’S END-USERS AND ARE DEDICATED HEART AND SOUL TO HELPING THEM SHORTEN THE TIMELINE TO PERFORM ON DEMAND AT THE HIGHEST LEVEL.

We have no business having “special operators” in constabulary positions in America.  I know a highly combat-experienced former Marine who agrees.  We need constitutional Sheriffs and peace officers.

Third, note what they call these policing “special operators.”  End users.  Nothing more, nothing less.  It’s just a craft to them, there is no morality in how it’s applied or carried out.  For enough money, they’d train any cops in America to perpetrate this craft on Americans.  GBRS Group is nothing but mercenaries for pay.

Fourth, note the interviewer.  He doesn’t stop the idiot from talking and respond, “Um … what did you say?  Did you say that the worst case you will face is an American prepper who has hardened doors?  Did you really mean that, and why would you do such a thing?

He just lets him keep on prattling about nothing after telling how he loathes ordinary Americans.

Fifth, and perhaps most important, a prepper doesn’t want to lure anyone into anything.  He wants to be left alone.  That’s what the statists don’t understand about you.  You just want to be left alone.

But this guy is willing to train people to bust down the doors of men and women who want to be left alone and raid their homes, potentially killing completely innocent and peaceable people, including dogs and children.  This is warfare perpetrated on Americans by Americans.

What a horrible bunch of men.  Just terrible.  Loathsome and repulsive.

    Re: “We have no business having “special operators” in constabulary positions in America. I know a highly combat-experienced former Marine who agrees. We need constitutional Sheriffs and peace officers.”

    The Founders, especially because of the experience of the colonists having the British redcoats quartered in their homes in the years leading up to the War of Independence, were highly-skeptical of standing armies.

    Because of the new nation’s long coastlines, the Founders recognized the need for a professional navy and naval infantry, the U.S. Marine Corps. But they regarded a large, standing army as a danger to liberty. They regarded the system of the Swiss as being superior, i.e., a small professional army and a much larger reserve force comprised of the people themselves. During the war, militia of citizen-soldiers were raised and employed right alongside professional troops.

    What would the founders say today about how large the police forces around the country have grown, and how militarized their conduct, equipment and mindset?

    Constitutional scholar and attorney John Whitehead has written extensively in recent years on this issue, for those who want to know more. Two non-fiction books in particular,”A Government of Wolves” and “Battleground America,” examine this issue in great detail and what it portends for the nation.

    This video now only shows that you can ‘rent’ a man’s loyalty, you can also ‘purchase’ it quite cheaply with the promies of three hots and a cot, medical insurance, a pension, plus complete immunity and at the end of 20 years of obeying everything they are told to do.

    Trad-Americans have long-regarded the armed forces and law-enforcement as “theirs,” culturally-speaking and in terms of the kind of people who make up these institutions and professions. Reflexively, therefore, many Americans who do not know any better assume that the status-quo from, say, 1960 or 1980 – still applies, when the reality may be very different.

    Culture is upstream of most everything in society, including the military and law enforcement. Meaning that these institutions are no better or worse than the people with whom they are staffed. The same applies to those who issue orders to these institutions and people.

    In other words, if the people in these organizations are on the whole good and virtuous, then the institutions themselves have a decent chance of representing those same values. On the other hand, if the people in these organizations – or even a significant percentage of them – are corrupt, venal and for-sale to the highest bidder, then the institutions will reflect that as well.

    The creep of Cultural Marxism – which is to say communism – into the fabric of the nation’s military has been ongoing since the 1970s and the advent of the all-volunteer force structure. The last redoubt holding the Marxists back was the members of the “Greatest Generation” – the men who had fought in WWII, Korea and in some cases, Vietnam – who embodied the values which once made our military the envy of others the world over.

    But when those men hung up the uniform for the last time, and the baby boomers – the “red diaper doper babies,” as they have been called – took over, things began to deteriorate more-rapidly. That was in the late 1980s and early 1990s.

    The Clinton administration was an inflection point. Bill “Bubba” Clinton hated the armed forces, and so did his erstwhile wife, Hillary Rodham Clinton, but they were savvy-enough politically not to let it show too much or too often.

    The eight years of G.W. Bush were a holding action, if that, and when Obama came onto the scene, the die was cast that the armed forces would finally fall to the marxists.

    The way things stand, according to my friends and sources I still have for things military, is that the ranks are divided into ideological camps, just like everyone else. Trad-Americans are still well-represented in the enlisted ranks, NCOs and company-grade officers. Cultural Marxism – being ‘woke’ – has made considerable inroads to the senior NCO ranks and the officers, field-grades and up. The service academies are now hotbeds of woke ideology. It used to be that Trad-Americans could count on the ranks of the special ops forces (JSOC) to be firmly in their corner, but even that is no longer guaranteed to be the case.

    Somewhat the same situation applies in law enforcement and the police. There are no hard-and-fast rules, but in general, those forces closer to the population, in particular in rural America, tend to be Trad-American in their outlook. County Sheriff Depts. and the like, some small-town police forces. However, as departments get larger and more urban, the calculus isn’t as clear. And as one moves from local to county to regional to state and finally federal LE, woke-ism becomes more and more prominent.

    Back in the day, J. Edgar Hoover used to take pride in the fact that the FBI was one of the most-respected law-enforcement agencies in the nation. Elliott Ness and the Untouchables, Melvin Pervis, et al. Today, the Bureau doesn’t even consider itself a law-enforcement agency. If you examine their mission statement online, it now says that the agency is devoted to “national security,” whatever the heck that means. By the looks of things, they seem now to specialize in black-bag ops and false-flags.

    I’ve heard rumors that the federal three-letter agencies are divided, too, but I can’t even get close to confirming that, so let’s just call it an inference and speculation and leave it at that.

    I saw this video a few weeks ago. Took note of everything you pointed out.
    I see folks here starting to notice and get it, grok it as the saying goes.
    This vid is reason 4,854,296 why I won’t give one whit when I hear about some boy in blue getting whacked in an ambush. I cannot say every community will be staffed with these types of officers, I hope for their sake my town isn’t.
    If everything leading up to Uvalde didn’t teach you, seeing that hot little tamale get arrested, talking her way out of cuffs, hopping the fence and saving her own kids while the pork pies stood around and did nothing SURELY taught everyone that cops don’t give two shits from a rats ass about you and yours? They are ok with being at the pointy end of the spear or they would have left by now (ask any cop who did retire early… they can see the writing is on the wall). They are willing to do all manner of things to you and yours, up to and including killing you (they won’t ever go to jail). You are an impedement to their paycheck. Don’t ever forget that. Your rights mean NOTHING next to their pension check. They are here to PROTECT their paycheck AND SERVE their masters, not protect the rights of their constituents.

    This is why they will win if things don’t change. Constantly whining about how we have the moral high ground rather than getting dirty like our enemies is why we are in the situation we are in with no solutions imminent.

    I remember a full-page back-cover ad I saw in “Leatherneck” magazine at least 20 years ago. [For those who don’t know, this is a glossy USMC magazine.]

    The ad showed a SWAT cop in full black Darth Vader uniform: helmet, goggles, mask, body armor, MP-5. [It was 20 years ago.]

    The ad copy said, “Getting out?” [Meaning separating from the USMC] “Still want the ACTION? The San Diego Police Department now has a direct military to SWAT career option. After the police academy you will go directly to SWAT training.” Etc etc etc.

    A lot of these goons think that Waco and Ruby Ridge were great victories for the “Special Operations” branch of “Law Enforcement,” other than their negative P.R. value. Their attitude is, “Hey, I’m not a constitutional lawyer, I’m just a door kicker, a shooter. I leave all that search warrant crap for the legal department. They tell me the address, I breach the door and take out the suspects.”

    Grim observations like this spurred me to write my first novel, Enemies Foreign And Domestic.

    Did we not just witness a platoon-sized group of these “pros” stand around cowering while one lightly armed tranny murdered innocent children? Dress rehearsal with all your pals is one thing.. actually attacking the prepared is another, especially if your training gets turned against you. For 50 years I’ve watched shoeless rice growers and goat herders chase these “operators” out of their countries. But come if you must.. be careful where you step – please mind the begonias.

    The “worst case” for these guys is a well-barricaded door they can’t get through so they are stuck in the open – AND – every guy in the neighborhood starts engaging them from covered and concealed positions from 50 to 100 yards away. All that fancy room clearing gear is worthless if a community decides to take the fight outside.

    The enforcers use the “doing my job” and “following procedure” arguments a lot these days. Too bad they don’t remember their history lessons. The “Doing my job and following orders” defense didn’t work out so well for some men in a city called Nuremberg back in the late 1940’s.

    Thirty years ago they proved that they are quite willing to deliberately blow your unarmed wife’s head off while she’s holding a baby because you were accused of having a shotgun barrel 17.75″ instead of 18.” Four which you were acquitted in court.

    Lon Horiuchi, a former Army officer and West Point graduate, blew Vicki Weaver’s head off not with a stray, errant shot, but peering deliberately through the scope of a precision sniper rifle. I guess he didn’t get enough action killing foreigners in the Army, so he had to kill some Americans.

    Remember that next time you hear them sing the bullshit about the “land of the free and the home of the brave.”

    This is to be expected from a generation raised on Call of Duty, Halo, etc, while living thru the forever war on terror.

    It is an interesting contrast is it not, that these SWAT types think of themselves as tough guys but then won’t perform when there is actually SWAT guy stuff to do.

    By one of their supervisors own statements made in a condescending tone when asked why the response took so long at Uvalde: “Those officers could have been shot or killed!!” They talk the talk but seldom walk the walk.

    Judging by their track records, had they gone in upon arrival there is a good possibility that they would have killed additional innocents and not just the shooter anyway.

    When this vid first popped up I shared it with a few former SF and LE friends. They were universally appalled, and coincidentally all are also now homesteaders (preppers by default), and have significantly “ hardened” homes, not because they want to “suck them in” but because they want to protect those inside.
    I always loved the quote “these doors are locked for your protection, not for mine”. It is a statement of preparation as well as a truism, though a bit tongue in cheek…
    Tactics in war zones need to be warlike, but these entities that think this is how you treat citizens in a Constitutional Republic in peacetime are psychopaths, and have no business being on any law enforcement staff.

    I subscribed to the GBRS YouTube channel thinking I could catch some useful knowledge and their extensive training. One of the videos that popped up was a review of a belt that was so homo-erotic that I had to turn it off. After reviewing more of their content, it’s apparent they are like the 1970’s band the village people but with AR’s and chest rigs instead of dance routines. These guys are just another Fed managed ‘patriot front’ honey trap, just in a different genre. They are fake and gay. GBRS = Gay Boy Rectal Specialist

    There are many x-snake eaters on You tube that espouse their killing prowess for the groupies who in turn fling their panties and money in cult like fashion.
    The only tactical advantage you will have is not unlike that of the IRA during the Troubles. The IRA’s active strength ebbed and flowed but was equivalent to the amount of people at an average high school football game You are on your own street and hopefully among people of liked minds not some third world cesspool and the contract killers won’t have overwhelming supporting fire, unlimited reserves and air cover nor the ability to be flown to safety 7,000 miles away.
    Your greatest threats are within a 5 mile radius. Local steals from you and local kills you.

    The obvious solution is to cut off the head of the snake. City Police Chiefs serve at the pleasure of the city council and the city manager. If your community is run by a bunch of Marxists, Karens, Beta Males, and sexual deviates, you will end up with a bunch of bloodthirsty, tatted-up, ‘roided-out, Orcs and Orcettes who will do their bidding for debt bucks. That video is proof.
    Know who the people in charge are and how they operate. That includes your County Commissioners, District Attorney, Sheriff, and Coroner. Know all about them and especially find out how much FEDGOV bribe debt bucks they are taking. There is where the strings will be attached. Plan accordingly. Stay vigilant. Bleib ubrig.

    DHS shows up and puts their tacticool “DHS Training” signs in the LEO side every now and then.
    Other alphabets show up sometimes. You can tell the level of glow when they all back their license plates away from the driveway and cameras.

    We only have sheriffs in our side of the county.

    Unfortunately where I am, we only have a state sheriff who is a bureaucrat within the state Dept of Public Safety. During the territory period, elected county sheriffs were eliminated at the demand of Congress, as the territory was considered incapable of self-government due to racial make-up. The county police are overseen by an appointed “police commission” who supposedly represent we, the people.

    It is worth noting that the leftist-communist “Defund the police!” movement isn’t taking place because the Reds hate police. It is taking place because at the present time, they do not control all of the police forces in the country, down to the local level, as they ultimately wish to do.

    The end game here being pursued by Biden, et al. and their fellow communists, is the same as it has always been in places the Reds wish to rule – to seize control of the enforcement arms of the state, namely the armed forces and the police.

    Once enough departments have been gutted, and enough old-line cops and sheriffs have retired or resigned, the left can do two things:

    First, up the ante on the activities of groups like Antifa and BLM.

    Second, when the chaos and violence caused by their direct-action groups is bad-enough, Biden can create a national police force, a.k.a. his version of the NKVD/KGB, Stasi, Red Guards, Gestapo, etc.

    Manufactured crisis is what these agent provocateurs specialize in…. they’ve used this method over and over again, because it works.

    Don’t buy it when come leftist-commie type says that he/she hates the cops. They love the police, but only when they control them and can use them as a weapon of repression against their opponents, “enemies of the state” as they call them.

It is an on-going struggle. But since I have nowhere to run to, I and my tribe have decided to embrace the suck. We’ll fight like the third monkey on the ramp of the Ark when the rain starts.
    George 1: Ada County is headed for big trouble simply because of the population influx. It started getting Californicated back in the early 90’s. One of my bro-in-laws was a teacher there and the Marxist transplants and their Karen and Beta Male useful idiots immediately took over the school boards. He couldn’t fight it because he had no backing, so he bailed. Here in Winterfell we are still a Red-state culture. When Amerika finally goes full Weimar, it will all fall down. Plan accordingly.
