There has been a lot of discussion of late concerning what would happen if we had any type of an event which would cause local, state or federal government to go on high alert or actually shut down all, or portions, of our city, state or naation. We have seen a rash of "training" events lately and will undoubtedly see a lot more of them. The government is preparing for...something...and even if it is just an honest preparation for some event in the forseeable future, it is nonetheless disturbing and well worth taking the time to consider what you will do when and if something such as a nationl "State of Emergency" is declared.  Join us tonight to discuss what you can do to make sure you are preparing for events such as this and thnking about how you will respond to theem. Call in number is 347-308-8790See you there!Scout

The Deadly Dance of The Powder Alarms

LEAD

The American Revolutionary War did not start off out of the blue. It had been percolating for over 40 years, and can trace back it's roots almost 100 years. It began with the people's belief that they had the ability to govern them selves, and the governments belief that the people were there to submit to governmental rule.We find ourselves more and more today, in the same dilema. The government feels it should be asked for permission, by the people, for every single thing they do. That there is no facet of American life that should not be controlled by the government. Government has grown soi arge that it over shadows everything we do every single day. Permits, licenses, fees, taxes, tens of thousands of laws on every imaginable issue.Tonight we are going to talk about how the events of April 19th began starting just a year before. And see if you think that we are in a similar position today.the call in number is 347-308-8790See you there!Scout

Situational Awarenss-Part Two

"A Rifleman never stops learning, a Rifleman never stops teaching. A Rifleman continuously seeks ways to to protect the freedoms and liberties the Founding Fathers left us, to improve himself, his home, his family, his community, his state and his nation, everyday of his life. A Rifleman adapts, a Rifleman overcomes and a Rifleman persists. This is not just some fancy gilded rhetoric we throw around like popcorn and pennies. This is the code we live by here. There is nothing wrong, no matter how often the mass of talking heads tells you it is wrong, or outdated, or corny, stupid and cavemanish, with having a code to live by in your life. Modern Americans have forgotten their code. They have forgotten how to be Americans. We are here to help them remember."-Scout BattleRoad is dedicated to teaching the skills, techniques and mindset needed to defend yourself and your loved ones in real world scenarios, as well as making sure you have the information needed to help you safeguard and defend the freedoms and liberty that living in this nation affords you.

III%ers, Grid Down Communications Expert Sparks31 Our Guest Tonight 7:00PM CST

Having the ability to provide immediate first aid to yourself or others is an important aspect of individual and group self reliance. And the only way to really do this is to have some of the things you will need to provide that first aid on your person, in your vehicle, in your home or camp when the need arises. But what do you really need? if you could have an ambulance with you and all the gear that it would hold that would be great, but normally you will only have the ability to carry a few of the most needed and most likely to be used supplies. What should they be?Caleb Causey is Head of Lone Star Medics here in Texas, and he and his sharp/dedicated crew have built a well respected company providing some of the best tactical and combat type medicine/first aid instruction in the state. Caleb will add his expertise and experience to the discussion tonight on what you really must have, what you can have and what would be nice to have in several different scenarios, for individual first aid kits (IFAK), group kits and medical bug out bags.We will also be talking about some improvised first aid supplies you can get or use in cases where you can not get the stuff you should actually be using.Hope to see you here tonight!Scout

Join us tonight, live, at 7:00pm Central for The Rifleman Radio Show. Tonight we discuss Natural Point of Aim, what it is how to determine it, to check it etc. Also we discuss positions and transitions and ways to make getting into the correct positions and then shooting from them an easier task for the Rifleman. We will also have some of the folks who ran the recent Appleseed participation in the Self Reliance Expo in Arlington last weekend. What they experienced and why the folks they were targeting were ready made to attend an Appleseed.

Making The Shot-Part 4 "NPOA and Positions"

"Bugging in", which is the opposite of "Bugging Out", or running away,  is a term used to describe the act of remaining in place during a man made or natural disaster. This is the reccomended procedure for all but a few of the situations individuals might face during natural or man made  disasters. Remaining in your home is a pretty logical decision right? You have all your stuff at your home, you are familiar with the location and maybe have friends or neighbors nearbby who might be able to help in a difficult situation. But even though bugging in might  be a lot safer and a better choice for caring for yourself and your family if you are caught in a disaster or cessation of services situation, there is still a great deal you can do to tip the odds in your favor for surviving in place. Hope to see you there! -Scout

"Bugging In"-Hunkering Down in Place During a Disaster

No one has to tell you times are tough and look to be getting tougher. No one has an answer that we have sent to represent us as, a nation. There are vyery few examples of humans making any great changes in their lives, their economy, their personal theory of life or their political beliefs untill they are forced to. And the "They are forced to" is usually a dangerous and ugly form of change no one would ever willingly select for themselves or their loved ones. You see this over and over in history with events like the recent bursting of the housing bubble, our own Great Depression, and even recently the financial failures of Argentina and Greece. The failure of theses nations and certainly our own financial failures were no surprise. Everyone saw them.coming from miles and miles away. And yet nothing could be done. Everyone simply sat there and watched the events unfurl like a slow motion train wreck. Is this what we see coming over the horizon at us with break neck speed like a run away locomotive? And of so, what is to be done about it? Why don't we talk about this tonight and see what our best options are.

And The Cradle Will Rock.........

A Rebel? From the Farflex/Google dictionary- Rebel, noun 1. One who rebels or is in rebellion: 2 verb-2. to dissent from an accepted moral code or convention of behaviour. A rebel is one who goes against the flow, swims upstream and does not allow themselves to be swept away, to be overcome by current thought and forced downstream with the flow. Maybe we should be rebelling against the current "accepted" moral code and our current behaviour in this country. Is that you? If that describes you, if it is you, we need you, we need a thousand of you, a million of you, and we need you all now! Maybe you are an "Insurgent"-adj. designating or of a faction in revolt against the leadership of a political party. noun-a person engaged in insurgent activity. Maybe we are all "innsurgents" too...and if we are not, maybe we should be. Maybe it is time to join the insurgency.

Are You A Rebel, and Part of The Insurgency?

Adam Baldwin

Most of you know actor Adam Baldwin from the great body of work he has done in the movie industry over the last 30 plus years. He started out as "Linderman" in "My Bodyguard" in the early eighties and went on to "Animal Mother" in Stanley Kubrick's "Full Metal Jacket", appeared as the Tory Captain in"The Patriot" with Mel Gibson and then on to "Serenity" and "Firefly" as Jayne Cobb, Major Mitchell in "Independence Day" and has done about two movies or television shows a year for the past thirty years. He has done over 100 movies and television shows as well as doing voices for a great many animated television programs and he is the voice of several video games like "HALO" and "Half-Life".While most folks think of Hollywood as being a hot bed of leftist thought and work, there are some few folks in LA that are conservative voices and Adam Baldwin is one of them. Mr. Baldwin keeps a close watch on current events and is a constitutional voice in a world peopled with Obama worshipers.Join us tonight for a discussion of his career and for talk about the nation's current events.-Scout

He has done over 100 movies and television shows as well as doing voices for a great many animated television programs and he is the voice of several video games like "HALO" and "Half-Life". While most folks think of Hollywood as being a hot bed of leftist thought and work, there are some few folks in LA that are conservative voices and Adam Baldwin is one of them. Mr. Baldwin keeps a close watch on current events and is a constitutional voice in a world peopled with Obama worshipers. Join us tonight for a discussion of his career and for talk about the nation's current events. -Scout

A lot of folks say we are at the end of an era. That we have run the nation, the world, the earth, into the dirt and into the last chapter of our current, modern history. There is talk of our own nation freezing up financially, of banks and Wall Street ruining us, of our nation degenerating into a civil war. Desperation, War, Chaos.We have alwasy been on the edge of- something-, since the beginning of historyBut that does not mean we should not be working to insure we are watching what is going on around us and trying to stay engaged with safeguarding the rights and freedoms of America.There has been a huge push to overide our rights of privacy in this country with the NSA accessing everything we do electronically now. And almost everything we do today has an electronic componenet to it.Our law enforcement agencies across the nation have become increasingly militarized and violence againt citizens is now commonplace.Our senators and congressmen are all racking up criminal charges and unethical behaviour violations. They have become career politicians with no real understanding of what the lives of regular citizens are like and they live under special laws they have enacted or exempt themselves from the laws everyone else must live under. They vote for special medical care for themselves and their families while soldiers die on waiting lists at goverment hospitals and the rest of us are forced by law to become part of a government run socialized medical program. Though they are paid for their service, they vote them selves pensions so that once they have served a term, they can have a pension for life.Who else can get away with such behavior? Not you or I. They have become so disc onnected from what it means to live in the real world, that they can no longer make good decisions about what is right and wrong.I do not have the answers, I hope some of you do and you will share them tonight

Making Skilled Riflemen out of Americans

We have covered the battles of Princeton and Trenton before on the show, but I do not think they can be discussed enough. The hardships the Colonials endured and the strength and courage it took to not only to fight in this horrible weather, but just to endure it. No food, little or no clothes or supplies for cold weather. Men marching through the days and night without sleep or in many cases without shoes on their feet.We will also talk about the Forage Wars, and what they meant to the men and women on both sides of the battles.Join me tonight to see how the men who stood together in ranks pushed themselves to make a stand during the hardest days in the American Revolutionary War, and think about how you would fare in those conditions.Hope to see you there!-Scout

Negotiating/Tracking/Picking your First Plants for Gradening

When someone says the word "Survivalist" it conjures images of a rugged individual, going it alone against all odds and struggling towards a difficult victory. Merriam's says it is- a person who advocates or practices survival-ism, especially : one who has prepared to survive in the anarchy of an anticipated breakdown of society. All of these definitions and visions of survivalists are very misleading though because they leave out the most important part of surviving any type of man made or natural disaster. And that is, the rest of their group. The other members of the group of folks who through their combined efforts, will successfully survive and event, because no one makes it through these things alone.   We will also be speaking with Stewart Rhodes, Founder of Oath Keepers about the upcoming event they are sponsoring in Bayview Idaho this coming weekend where folks will most certainly be talking abuot working together to insure their survival.Oath Keepers Summer Gathering at Annual North West Patriots and Preparedness Rally, July 26-28 Join us tonight as we discuss the importance of working with other members of your family and community to get through rough times. -Scout

The Importance of Not Going it Alone in Survival Situations 

Tonight we are going to talk about the events leading up to the battles of Lexington and Concord and how the Colonists were preparing for possible conflict with the British Regulars. We will also have the guys and girls from the BattleRoadUSA Precision Rifle/Sniper course that just ended last week on to discuss the course.

The Road To Lexington and Concord, April 19th, 1775

Tonight we will talk about the battles that occurred during the month of December during the years of the American Revolutionary War. Starting with a quick discussion of the Boston Tea Party, not an in depth one, since I want to talk about the Tea Party on the radio show, by itself in depth, during the week it actually happened. But there were a dozen battles that occurred during the years of the American Revolutionary War in the month of December and we will talk about them tonight. I like to talk about the battles in the month they occurred as it is easier to understand the cold of winter if it is cold outside, and the battles of summer if it is hot outside. Makes sense right? Be sure and take the time to call in and thank your local Appleseed crew on air, they really appreciate it folks, the same way you would.
