Foreword in Polish:


Witam przyjaciół z Polski,
mam tak wiele amerykański patriota przyjaciół, także byłych weteranów walki czytający moim skromnym blogu i zgadzam się z moich pomysłów i nastrojów. Wszyscy chrześcijanie powinni zrozumieć, że deptali, zło i nigdy nie przestanie na Ziemi do Boga Ojca--Yahweh, osobiście kuracja zatrzymać go w niedalekiej przyszłości ! Sorry do zaskakują pychą ci z tym "News". Ja nie próbują zafałszować ludzie ani nie obrażaj ich --- ale tylko powiedz im fakty i rozwaga. I, "Bóg nie może leżeć." - Tytus 1:2.
Nie wiem co twój przepisy krajowe są, ale teraz dni z bardzo agresywnym narodów otaczających nas, Polski i Ameryki, powinniśmy myśleć, planować i przygotować się na duże prawdopodobieństwo podwodnymi, przemocy i masowych mordów. Islamska najeźdźców wiele do zrobienia z tą przemocą, ale Polacy są wystarczająco inteligentny, aby zamknąć swoje granice !!! Wspaniałe !

Hi  Friends and avid Readers,
   My last blog post gain much attention from American Patriots,  and I had to agree with my friend,  David [Strong Horse].   But actually,  I have had this very subject on my mind for a few years already, and that is another reason why I got my Concealed Carry Permit, for handguns, etc.   I will never discuss what I have and own.... duh,  because that is just not good proper business,  friends.   I am not as free and agile at age 68, with plenty of war wounds and motorcycle accidents,  but I feel that I am still quick enough and well trained to get the job done.

My friend, David, has many good points on being prepared !   Please share with your friends and give this piece special consideration.   Thank You,  All.  

Warm Regards,

Tom,

You have the audience, not me. Therefore I wanted to share this with you, so that you can share it with your readers. This is in answer to the most recent shooting, and in my opinion, it is very good advice. I think you will agree.

Stewart Rhodes, (Founder and President of Oath Keepers), in a comment he made on our website, pointed out that it is our duty, as citizens, to always be armed and ready to confront evil.
I will wait to see final confirmation, but it does appear that this was a Christian hating leftist terrorist, who was attempting to kill but then survive to kill some more, rather than a typical suicidal mass shooter. And, unfortunately, that is something else I warned about in my Friday post about Nov 4 and the days to follow – that we may see hardcore leftists become discouraged by the failure of Nov 4 then decide to go full on Weather Underground style terrorist and target conservatives and anyone else they see as being on the political right. This church attack may be just such an incident. We will see, but I would not be at all surprised.
But whether he had planned this for some time or was reacting to the failure of the Nov 4 launch of a supposed mass movement to remove Trump, our response must be the same:
1. Go armed at all times, in all places, and be ready for it when (not if) the attack comes. That must be the physical practice and the mental state of all patriotic Americans. As I said in my Friday write up, expect it, and prepare for it, and that means a handgun and knife on your person, and a rifle or shotgun in your vehicle. It was a private citizen with a long gun who put a stop to this killing spree. You must be ready to do the same. It is a tragic shame that there was apparently nobody with a firearm among the victims in the church. I have heard nothing about anyone in that church returning fire, and it is most likely they were all unarmed.
2. Go armed in church! See #1. Be armed AT ALL TIMES, IN ALL PLACES. And especially while in church or at any gathering of people that can be attacked by some jihadist or leftist terrorist (who hate the same people). If your pastor has an idiotic “policy” of no guns in church, give him till this next Sunday to change that policy (and teach him why he must) or go find a new pastor and a new church. Do NOT let yourself be disarmed in church. How many fathers and husbands died unarmed in that church while they watched women and children slaughtered around them? How many mothers where helpless to stop their loved ones from being shot again and again? Do NOT be disarmed by anyone, anywhere. Just one gun in the hands of a good guy inside the church could have stopped the slaughter, just like a gun in the hands of a good guy outside the church prevented the terrorist from being able to get away and kill more people somewhere else (it now looks as if he had explosives in the vehicle as well as more guns and ammo, so he may have intended to carry out other attacks elsewhere).
3. Each of us needs to resolve that as a matter of duty, we will be armed and ready, and make that a solemn oath and pledge that we take deadly seriously, and then encourage others around us to do the same. Be the example of what must be done, and then help them do likewise. Show them how to do it, and train them so they are safe and effective in their use of their weapons.
4. Carry a long gun in your vehicle! Just like the hero on Sunday who used a close at hand rifle to put a stop to the killer’s plans, you may be called upon to do the same and it is much better to do it with a rifle or shotgun in hand than only a handgun. He was in a RIFLE FIGHT with the terrorist and drove him off with a rifle, then pursued him in a high speed chase with another citizen, and then ended the chase with that rifle in his hand. Try to avoid having no choice but to bring a handgun to a rifle fight. If you are away from your rifle when it goes down, you may have no choice but to engage handgun against rifle, but if you can, fight your way to your rifle. But you can’t do that if your rifle is at home. Have the option of a rifle or shotgun in your vehicle.
5. Every church needs a dedicated armed security team, and that must include at least two armed men on the outside of the church so they can see and then stop a shooter before he gets inside. This wack job was able to stage outside, get out of his vehicle, put on his gear, get out his rifle, and then walk into the church unopposed. It is better to stop a shooter on the outside rather than on the inside. Have armed teams inside and out, with radios, with all in two man buddy teams. A team outside, a team at the exterior door(s), teams inside the doors, up front at the alter, and then dispersed in the congregation is best. Every man needs to be armed, but they should rotate the full on duty of security. Security comes first! Then your convenience.
6. As I stated in my Friday piece, coordinate with local LEOs on some visual designator for you to wear, such as a certain color bandana or sash, that you let the local cops know about. It will help to cut down on the chance of your being shot by a well intentioned responding officer. With the church security, let the cops know how all church security personnel will be dressed (such as a certain color or style of suite jacket and pants). But also consider the sash, arm-band, or handkerchief/bandana that can be thrown on once the incident starts. This helps cut down the chance of terrorists dressing like your security element and fooling the police. And as you go about your day, that indicator needs to be with you, in a pocket or otherwise on your person. Change it every couple months for Op Sec.
7. Prepare for the worst – a wave of left wing terrorism targeting conservatives, libertarians, Christians, police, military, veterans, etc (anyone the left considers on the right or part of the system). Expect it. Prepare yourselves in case this does lead to a full blown civil war. Get your food storage and fuel storage built up, since there will be shortages, disruptions in service, and possibly economic collapse if a civil war kicks off. Look to the experiences in Bosnia and other such places where bloody civil war broke out. Prepare for power outages, disruption in water services, heat, etc. And prepare to defend your home and neighborhood against terrorist attack. A neighborhood watch with teeth (armed) is what you will need. Start one now, or at least be ready to start one when the time comes, and that will mean having enough hand held radios and vehicle radios (FRS, CB, HAM) to have effective grid-down communication with your neighbors, friends, and families. Have a way to recharge the radio batteries, such as solar charges and/or a generator. Have a way to purify water for your neighborhood. You should also store up medical supplies, ammunition, and a few spare guns to lend out to trusted neighbors to use on duty with the watch. Be the source of knowledge and critical supplies for that community defense and for clean water and you will be the one the others look to for leadership. Be ready to lead.
Never, ever, give up on the Constitution. It holds all the answers within it to any problem, including defeating a communist insurrection against it. Remember, it is the militia of the people that is specifically tasked in Article 1, Section 8 with repelling invasions, suppressing insurrections, and executing the laws of the Union. And that means you. And it means all of your family, friends, church members, and all your neighbors who are loyal to the Constitution. It will be up to you. Don’t count on the U.S. military or LEOS to do that vital task, since they cannot be everywhere at once. But the people can, and are.
The people are always present in every church. The people are always present in every movie theater. The people are always present in every school. The people are always present at every concert, at every ball game, at every rally or conference that may be attacked. The people will always be there, while the police usually will not.
“The people” are always, always present whenever a terrorist or insane madman goes on a shooting spree or carries out an attack. But are they ready to fulfill their duty as the militia? That is the question. You must answer it with YES, I AM READY. And when they ask “who shall we send?” Your answer must be “send me.”
Stewart Rhodes
As always brother Tom, take care of you and yours, keep your head on a swivel, and watch your six.

I am proud to be moving to the number 1 rated gun friendly state in our country! Arizona!
After my three tours in Vietnam, where I left half of my foot, several chunks of my flesh, lots of blood, and many heartaches, as well as a lifelong friendships and thoughts of great happy times and much sad time. 
I served in combat, in the Marines, had six bullets that were removed from my carcass, shrapnel, some pieces were still coming out years later, and lots of good American blood spilled defending our nation, only to return to fools cussing me out, spitting on me, and teachers in college ordering me to attend protests!
I am a lifetime member of the NRA! Proud of it! I am a Marine, and proud of it! I served my country, and I am proud of it.
I attended college in Arizona, where I earned a BSEE degree and an MSME degree. I went further and received a PhD in Quantum Mechanics, and love it when cupcakes, Fruitcakes or Snowflakes say Conservatives are stupid, or when they say anyone who served in the military is a murderer or some such crap!
I am a Constitution lover! I am a total believer in our Bill of Rights! I love my country! I will never surrender to those who disparage or hate our country! I will uphold my oath and offer my life to defend and protect this country from foreign and DOMESTIC enemies! 
I submit Obama as an example of someone who is a domestic enemy!
I presently reside in the worst state in our Union, California, but we are moving to Arizona, where my wife has many relatives, and where I can carry concealed, carry open, own and carry knives, including switchblades, and enjoy going out to the desert and target practicing, as well as live within 20 minutes of one of the largest ranges in the country.
At 70 years old, I am going back to college, Yavapai, where one of the top Gunsmithing schools is taught! I look forward to once again getting my hands on real hardware, new and old, and learning welding, machining, design and use of guns! 
I intend to open a shop while attending school, and begin a simple business! 
I hope all of Tom's friends find solace in their endeavors, and enjoy my years dealing with guns the idiots in our country do not appreciate! thanks, Jeff

Tom, I was at the VAMC Loma Linda, California, today! I discussed your issues with several Doctors and three advocates! All agreed that going to other Doctors is the way to get what you require. 
All stated they would never argue with an outside MD about a diagnosis or prescription. Most said they would enjoy seeing you as a patient, being treated properly for your issues!
One disabled vet who was with our group, stated he was not getting his VA doctor to sign his Disabled papers for 100% which would give him free vehicle registration. In California, registration is hundreds if dollars each year for a standard car. Thousands for luxury cars.
If you get a doctor to sign that you are 100% disabled, it is free! My vehicles are all free.
The vet asked me some weeks ago, what to do. I told him to go to CalVets, which works alongside the VA advocates, in helping vets. They are not part of the VA and not paid by the VA, but are recognized as equal to the VA. 
He did as I suggested, and told me today, he was referred to a VA Doctor, who read his papers, and gave his signature.
He said it saves him $350 a year!

I have learned that getting upset is easy, but getting revenge is better! I love throwing it in the faces of the less than poor VA doctor, by showing him/her the signature, the prescription, the results of a highly qualified Doctor who agrees with me!

I have changed my doctor's minds at the VA several times, by going back with a diagnosis that they said no to, but an outside professional said yes to.
The VA Opthalmologists said I was borderline Glaucoma! The top Opthamologist at the Loma Linda University Hospital said it was just "dry eye"!
He put me on some wet eye drops, and everything was okay! They disagreed, but after six months, found he was correct! They now listen to me and ask me what the outside Doctors say.

The same thing occurred with the Cardiologists! I have three specialists. One is rated the top Thoracic Cardiologist in Southern California, he performed open heart surgery on me. Another is rated one of the top five Electro-physio Cardiologist in the Western U.S. and the third is my primary Cardiologist, who is highly respected, and known throughout Southern California. 
The VA Cardiologist argued about my treatment, until I got letters from all three, directed to him, outlining their treatment, their diagnosis, their reasons etc. The VA Cardiologist backed off, and has not argued once in the past three years with their treatment. I actually think he learned from them! I know only that I died twice on the OR table, but they saved me, and brought me back! 19 direct hits on my heart at 200+ joules! 
Ten years ago!
I have V-fib. Ventricular Fibrillation! The bad one!
