Watch this video first. It’s short but instructive.

Snake Boots.

Next up, here’s someone who’s been out there a lot.

I had been suspecting something like this. And it’s not the first time I’ve heard it from folks who should know.

Also, catch what Mr Guns & Gear says about where FEMA is: Asheville and Boone. The land of progs and the town of ASU. I would have expected something like that from the cowards at FEMA. The rest of the poor folk are left to die in the wilderness or get help from the locals.

Also, he points out a very said fact. It’s getting cold in the hills of N.C. and Tennessee, and there are a lot of people who tried to survive as their house floated away, have no food, have no power, have no internet, and have no clean clothes, and are still having to make house payments.

Oh, and by the way, I would believe Eustace Conway before I would believe anybody in government, whether local, state or federal.

Of course, what he’s saying is a lie. He knows better when he says that the police will leave you your deer hunting rifles in a seizure of your firearms. The most unfortunate part isn’t that he’s a liar – everybody already knows that.

The most unfortunate part is that there are enough Fudds out there who focus on deer, turkey and upland bird hunting that if they can do that during season, that’s enough for them. As for red flag laws, implement away as far as they’re concerned.

Me … not like this. I would assume that this method gets most of the debris out if it’s well dried. By well dried, I don’t mean with a towel. I mean with a vacuum chamber. I don’t have one of those. So I wouldn’t do this.

Eh, whatever. I don’t really care much about what you call it. I think the NFA, GCA and Hughes Amendment are all unconstitutional anyway.

Like one commenter said, call it “Arms,” or “Bearable Arms.”

“Shall not be infringed.”

If you want it for plinking, that’s fine. If you want it for hunting, that’s fine. If you want to keep it a gun safe for collecting, that’s fine. If you want it for the amelioration of tyranny, that’s fine. If you want to call it an AR-15, that’s fine. If you want to call it a MSR, that’s fine. If you want to call it your pet dog spot, that’s fine. Because rights. Not permissions.

How do we know that? Because we know the type of people who work in the FedGov.

And he even failed to bring up muzzle loaders, which will be considered firearms depending on the outcome of VanDerStok.

By the way, I listened to some of the arguments. Most of the people talking seemed like utter morons to me, including the supreme court justices.

I usually try to wait for confirmation on things like this, but the confirmation surely did come. With personnel wearing head cover, in fact. The only reason you cover your face in a situation like this is shame.

Y'all, we're trying really hard to stay out of the conspiracy space, but some people aren't making it easy. This actually happened to a distribution site we supplied in WNC. Make it make sense please. #CajunNavy https://t.co/39b5SeouCA

UPDATE: The initial investigation indicates the helicopter in the video belongs to the North Carolina National Guard. The pilots have been grounded until a further investigation can be completed.https://t.co/JjTyLop78X

Tulsi Gabbard says that FEMA has a “major bureaucracy problem.” No ma’am. Your proclivities and inclinations are still way off.

FEMA is a bureaucracy.  That is its problem. It shouldn’t exist, any more than the department of education should exist. There is no constitutional mandate for such things.

Listen carefully to what he says. Sometimes what he says can get buried in detail. If it’s the case that a single drill hole can convert a non-functioning part into a semi-automatic firearm, then perhaps it’s the case that a single drill can convert a semi-automatic firearm into a machine gun.

See the point?

The AR-15 must have magnificent powers for the FedGov to be so worried about it.

I listened to part of the questions. It sounded like the idiots run the asylum.

It’s all very difficult. I would be in the mountains helping if I could. It makes no sense to me if the FedGov or local government claims that they’re better off without help like I could offer. I would be willing to strap on a backpack and hike up a mountain 15 miles to determine if someone’s parents were still alive, or carry medicine to them. And I would fully indemnify all parties in the case of my demise.

I think that only an idiot would say that I’m not welcome. But merely volunteering just doesn’t do it.

If you’re not on government orders, you’re not going in here. Period.

If you’re a member of a group like this, it seems to be easier. That is, if you could bring bad publicity for being shut down by FEMA, they seem to leave you alone.

SWANNANOA, North Carolina — Hundreds of special operations personnel in North Carolina have formed their own homegrown rescue and supply operation in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene after they grew tired of waiting for the federal government to get its act together.

The Post found an all-volunteer operation being run out of a Harley-Davidson dealership with ruthless efficiency and military precision.

“Who’s FEMA?” ex-Green Beret Adam Smith derisively responded when asked about the agency’s presence on the ground …

“This disaster has definitively proven without a shadow of a doubt FEMA’s incompetence and incapability,” he said, noting that the agency didn’t even show up until Thursday — almost a week after the storm that has killed at least 232, nearly half of them in the mountainous west of the Tar Heel State.

I’m not sure if it’s incompetence and incapability or intentional.

This Harley-Davidson dealership has become a forward operating base, complete with a fleet of 35 helicopters that have flown hundreds of rescue, reconnaissance and resupply sorties.

Organizers are calling the effort the “Savage Freedoms Relief Operation,” but Smith says they’ve proudly adopted the alternate moniker — “the Redneck Air Force.”

The dealership teems with current and former soldiers decked out in camo pants and army boots with handguns strapped to their chests and hips. Crop duster pilots, helicopter tour guides and special operations pilots — most of them off-duty or retired military — have answered the call from Smith and others in North Carolina’s extensive military community.

They’re using their own aircraft to fly doctors, medicine, generators, fuel and food to isolated residents cut off from the world by the unprecedented floods to washed out mountain roads and wiped entire towns off the map.

Supplies and fuel for an operation of this magnitude don’t come cheap, but the group has relied entirely on donations, including around $190,000 raised through a GoFundMe page, Smith said.

[ … ]

Now that the effort has taken on a life of its own, Smith and others leading the operation have gone from cursing FEMA for its absence to hoping they never come back.

Smith said he fears their carefully calibrated rescue mission will be bogged down with governmental red tape if the feds show up.

“Nobody out here wants the federal agencies to come in. FEMA has walked into operations centers like this and has attempted to just take over and tell them what they’re doing is illegal and they’re not allowed to keep going. I’ve seen it firsthand in this area,” Smith told The Post.

“My biggest fear is they’ll move into the area and in the process they’ll reinvent the wheel and rebuild the entire process.”

Yeah, I’ve heard other curse FEMA as a result of this as well. I don’t blame them.

If I can help in any way, please let me know. I’ve donated $$$, but it was probably all confiscated by FEMA for use by illegal aliens. Or spent on Covid. You read that right. Covid.
