“ If violent crime is to be curbed, it is only the intended victim who can do it. The felon does not fear the police, and he fears neither judge nor jury. Therefore, what he must be taught to fear is his victim.”---Lt. Col. Jeff Cooper USMC

Please stop thinking Trump is going to save you or anybody else...he is as much of the problem as the Biden administration is ..these clowns all work together...they are all employed by the International Bankers!

If you want to be saved...you are going to have to save yourself

Jesus ain't coming to save your sorry ass soul

God gave you a brain...use it!

Lt. Col. Jeff Cooper USMC is telling it like is...there is no crime in self defense...God will not strike you dead for defending your home and family...

It is happening and you had better open your eyes!

I think Cooper was much quoted by gun enthusiasts and in gun magazines. He is 100% correct below. It has always been so.

Leonardo da Vinci once said "There are three classes of people...Those who see...Those who see when shown...and those who do not see."

FWIW One of my fav hobbies is tracking down quote mis-attributions, so here goes re: the da Vinci quote you shared here (& that's been mis-attributed over & over). Admittedly it's a great quote, but it was said by another well-known historical figure.

"No, Leonardo da Vinci did not write that either." - July 31, 2016

Mis-attributed quote: There are three classes of people: those who see those who see when they are shown those who do not see

The Correct Quote Variations

Because this quote was originally written in Italian in the 16th century, it has been translated into English many times by many different translators resulting in many variations. I am listing five variations below, but this is not a comprehensive list.

✓ “There are three classes of intellects: one which comprehends by itself; another which appreciates what others comprehend; and a third which neither comprehends by itself nor by the showing of others.” - Niccolò Machiavelli

The Prince, Chapter XXII, page 181 (London: J. M. Dent & Sons Ltd, 1908)

Translated by W. K. Marriott

You can see why no one wants to attribute that quote to Machiavelli, right? After his death he was said to be an advocate for evil, elite, subversive political manipulation.

See: "After his death Machiavelli's name came to evoke unscrupulous acts of the sort he advised most famously in his work, The Prince.[9] He claimed that his experience and reading of history showed him that politics has always involved deception, treachery, and crime.[10] He also notably said that a ruler who is establishing a kingdom or a republic, and is criticized for his deeds, including violence, should be excused when the intention and the result are beneficial to him.[11][12][13] Machiavelli's Prince has been surrounded by controversy since it was published. Some consider it to be a straightforward description of political reality. Others view The Prince as a manual, teaching would-be tyrants how they should seize and maintain power.[14] Even into recent times, some scholars, such as Leo Strauss, have restated the traditional opinion that Machiavelli was a "teacher of evil".[15]"

Carry on, Liam... & watch out for all those mis-attributed Lincoln quotes too, peeps. hahaha

Well thanks for this information...I was late going to the university...I started in 2008. We were specificity told never use Wikipedia because of the unreliability of its sources...now it seems that everyone uses it... and it is excepted as "Truth" history is changing as we speak...Someone wrote "God cannot alter the past, only historians can!" This is what is happening on a daily bases just like in 1984. Mark Twain once said "If voting made a difference, "they" would make it illegal." Now "They are saying he didn't say that...I do appreciate your energy in replying to my statement...Thank You! I have quite the library of books some as old as 1800's. I do my best to use them as my resources...Cheers

Wikipedia is still very serviceable, when the topics are not politically- or financially contentious. Use discernment.

Wikipedia was, for years an open-source platform and could be edited by anyone and everyone – and it was actually kept in check by that system. Wikipedia was rarely the target of mass-bad faith editing until the Trump Presidency.

Malicious editing of open-source platforms, like Wikipedia and the manipulation of A.I.s, such as ChatGPT, Alexa and Google Search (and all -related similar programs) is *the* signature of 5th Generation Warfare and we are living through it right now,

I've been beaten half to death by it – but I'm still alive!!!

Want to guess who said something similar to that about history?

History is the version of past events that people have decided to agree upon. - Napoleon Bonaparte

[More like forced to agree, when rulers/conquerors write the history books! Which is exactly your point above.]

liam - Your quote made me look up the guy: > Jeff Cooper - American journalist and small weapons expert (1920-2006)- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeff_Cooper - Family Foundation Website: jeffcooperfoundation.org

John Dean "Jeff" Cooper was a United States Marine, the creator of the "modern technique" of handgun shooting, and an expert on the use and history of small arms. Wikipedia

Interesting dude > Jeff Cooper Legacy Foundation - An armed society is a polite society [ ! ]

https://jeffcooperfoundation.org

See: Growing Up Cooper by Lindy Cooper Wisdom - May 2024 - It asked of me just a bit more than I thought I was capable of doing. That was my Dad. Note: To perpetuate my Dad's teachings, the Cooper family formed The Jeff Cooper Legacy Foundation, a 501 c (3).

[excerpt] "My father, Jeff Cooper, was many things. He was a scholar, warrior, author, adventurer, teacher, lifelong student and a connoisseur of excellence in all things. He was also the father of the Modern Technique of the Pistol, a founder of IPSC, and the founding father of Gunsite, which is perhaps the foremost firearms training academy in the world."

"I am the youngest of Jeff and Janelle’s three daughters and spent most of my formative years in Big Bear Lake, California. I was a girl when Dad formed the Bear Valley Gunslingers and the Southwest Combat Pistol League. I knew all the masters (Thell Reed, Elden Carl, Ray Chapman, Jack Weaver, John Plahn) as well as Bruce Nelson and John Bianchi and Al Nichols and Hugh Carpenter and many, many more who came up to Big Bear to participate in what was a form of practical university for learning what worked in the realm of defensive pistolcraft."

"I took both my father’s pistol class and his rifle class and I was privileged to travel quite a bit with both my parents when the opportunities arose. I was lucky to share my first hunt with my parents in Montana, and later hunted in Africa with them several times. I went to many SHOT shows and NRA conventions with them as well."

"Over the years, I have often been asked about my parents and my upbringing and the basic question is always, “What was it like to have Jeff Cooper as your father?” So, let me share some memories with you."

Liam, it’s sort of funny, I was just arguing with my hubby about how the Ukrainian weapons were circulating back into the USsa and into the hands of the gangs. Sargent Bilko smugglers are using the Ukrainian grain shipments as cover. They are also going into the warehouses of some Congress critters in Minnesota. A box of them fell off a ship in Duluth last year while they were unloading.

What’s amazing is that so many liberals living in these blue cities are so brainwashed that they refuse to believe this is really happening!!! You can’t fix stupid!! I shared it on one of our crime notice sites and it’s amazing how ignorant they choose to be!! Oh well, we will be prepared if they TRY to move to the suburbs!!! There are lots of gun owners who will gladly put them down like the rabid dogs they are!! The officials here are complicit and instead of responding immediately, they formed a task force! Well we know that will just give them an excuse to take their good all time and let them run the people out!

You don't understand. It's not that "liberals" refuse to see what is happening. They know perfectly well what is happening. The word "liberals" is only a euphamism for the word "Marxist", or "Communist". Their primary goal is to create so much chaos in America that we will beg the government for relief, which the Marxists who run our government will be only too glad to provide by way of suspending the Constitution and instituting martial law.

How dare you Walter be an expositer of the Truth because you are correct. In my contacts with all races, men and woman of varying economic means, powerful and regular people but mostly women over three decades I have indeed learned a lot but primarily that God exists and is active, the world is corrupt and the Holy Bible is true. In my client list though are all manner of political persuasion and I am sure that deception has captured the minds of many. Started in 1969, and while I am not a Biblical scholar, I have started more and more to study it. MY most recent connection with a trusted friend (all my friends are trustworthy and honest to the point they have committed to hide and shelter me if I ever get in a battle with the damned CYSTem whereby I am unjustly targeted for jail/prison. I have places where I am welcome all over Canuckistan and the USA as well. I dare say law enforcement good ole boys in the USA have even taken to me in that capacity. If I wanted to disappear I am sure I could and none could find hide nor hair of me. Not that the CYSTem would care, their goal is only to silence the Truth that condemns each and every one of the enemies of all that is good. I have lived in different circumstances and places but it is always the same. Pee ERROR, the father of the bastard child turdo current slime minister, is setting up to be a DICKtator and already qualifies for the first four letter description back several words.

I have watched since 1969 the corruption of law enforcement, politics, religion and CYSTem that now is the enemy of all that is good. To be honest, I rely on wiser people than myself and especially the older generations, relative to scriptural realities.

I called a friend well versed in scriptures a few days ago to set a time to discuss my questions. It was a long talk but I asked him about the signs of the times and after much debate I yielded to his belief that the appearing of Jesus could happen anytime. This fellow I have known for over forty years and he has always been a student of the Holy Bible. I have been feeling restless over the last several months and sought his wisdom to ascertain why. All I have seen happening seems to be surreal in scope and definitive in structure and direction. The ONLY Authority and omniscient Power who will push the button is God the Father but this man I spoke to was right when he told me of the coming reduction of world populations well over two decades ago and I had to apologize to him for my skepticism.

I now believe as he does with the signs of the “ waxing of evil more and more” and other referential aspects of scripture that we are in the end times that could start tomorrow or decades later. Nobody knows for sure but it seems all the things that are prophecied as signs have occurred and even the presence of the “antichrist” who I believe is here and is ready and waiting to play his prophecied role. I also cross reference with true ministers of the gospel who preach Jesus crucified and glorified.

I have lost my last elderly man who I would visit among many other older people to instruct me in scriptural matters. He deceased a few years ago and I miss him…two of these were named “Ken” and the other keys to my knowledge Ernest and Geoffrey.

But I could be wrong just as Paul my friend could be but read 2 Thessalonians 2 verses 3 to the end with emphasis on verse 3 to 12.

I am enthralled with the women here on substack and their knowledge but also men as yourself who as well have things in keen view and see exactly what is going down.

I know the Venezuelan plane was seized in the Dominican but I wonder if Elon was involved, at all? Notice how he just threatened the Brazilian government:

"Elon Musk, never one to shy away from controversy, issued a stern warning. 'Unless the Brazilian government returns the illegally seized property of SpaceX, we will seek reciprocal seizure of government assets too,' Musk declared. The tweet, which has since gone viral, was accompanied by a biting remark: 'Hope Lula enjoys flying commercial,' a pointed reference to Brazil’s President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva."

Its no different in Western Europe. I live in Italy where for more than ten years immigrants have come over by the millions. An Italian family goes on a two week summer vacation? When they come back home, surprise!! Some other family is living in their home. Even when they go to the police they are told that before they can remove the immigrants the social services must first find them temporary place to live. An elderly widow has an extended stay at the hospital? He or she finds the same surprise upon arriving at their residence.

The entire thing is a world government project. Our government is completely complicit at all levels down to the local police. The UN and NGO presence in Mexico giving maps, cells, food and directions, aiding and routing military aged male illegals, including large numbers of the worst criminals the third world was happy to send, pushing them into the open border, letting them in by the millions. And who are "drug cartels"? Owned minions of the Black Nobility. They're given luxury resources from our money once they're in the country, but they come in such large numbers many become homeless, so they take over housing belonging to our citizens. The inaction of the local and state authorities is there for all to see. And no doubt there was advance collusion of state and local legislatures in setting up the squatter laws in advance, just as surely as webs of alliances were made in advance by countries to cause two world wars as soon as the false flags were thrown down. They ALWAYS pre-pave the roads to their objectives. How many pre-pavings have we had.... the Antifa riots calling for cancelling the cops, the Jan. 6 hearings/jailings warning people not to get involved in any problems, the stealing of an election enabling them to do their worst for 4 years, the Trump assassination plot that intended to grease the wheels of full-on tyranny. The illegals know we're sitting ducks with our protective services at all levels ordered to stand down and our appeals falling on their deaf ears. Could it be any more obvious? Long ago one of their imps said that we would have world government whether we wanted it or not. Do you see how they intend to get it?

It's all part of the same continuous process, which is why I linked the progression of things we know building into what looks like it's new. It's the same old shit with the same old goal.

"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."

The term "militia" in the Second Amendment of the United States Constitution refers to the American people, or citizens, as a whole. ALL able bodied adults. That means you. That means me. All of us.

The Founding Fathers believed that citizens should be able to protect themselves from the government and other threats to their safety and personal freedom. The militia was intended to be a citizen army, made up of non-professional or part-time soldiers who would serve in times of need.

The government is part of the problem, not the solution. Even though it feels like we are on our own we are not, we have each other.

Better get stocked up now.
