Revolutionary Songs For the Rebellious

Today I have an article I’ve been kicking around for a while. Music is a big part of the human experience, used to convey emotions and desires common to all mankind. Today I’ve collected some songs to represent the current revolutionary spirit welling up in not only Americans but people all throughout the world. The governments keep getting bigger and taking more power for themselves and removing more of our freedoms. The songs I picked today show that feeling and strike a chord with me. Some are newer songs and some are older from the hippie movement that saw that government was evil. So lets get down with some music today.

Survival Shows I Do Like

Last week I tore into why I don’t like the show doomsday preppers. Maybe I’m wrong but the episodes I watched has no redeeming qualities, hidden nuggets of Survival wisdom.  Only scared crazy people giving all preppers a bad name.  With that said I feel there are some shows out there over the years with varying amounts of solid advice.  Today I’m going to go over a few of my personal favorite shows.

Why I don’t Like Doomsday Preppers

Years ago I watched the pilot episode of Doomsday Preppers, Up until recently, yesterday, I had not bothered to watch another episode. I got to thinking that maybe I was judging the show unfairly and decided to watch a few episodes and make an informed decision. I watched most of two episodes, most because I lost interest in one and saw too much crazy on the other one. I’ll break down what I don’t like about the show and why it’s bad for us as a community.

All about Tiny Houses

For the past few years I have become more and more obsessed with alternative house building techniques. I know I want to own a home and land but without all the debt. I do not want nor need a McMansion, I do fine with living in tiny spaces. For a summer a few years back me and my buddy Mike built two 10×10 sheds and I lived in them. I was perfectly comfortable and had everything I needed. One of the most interesting alternative houses is the Tiny house. They are built using traditional hose techniques, framing etc just much smaller. One the inside they have been optimized for getting the maximum  usage out of the tiny space. Today I’m going to talk all about tiny homes and share my love of them with you.

M48 Kommando Tactical Tomahawk

A while back the folks at BudK sent me a M48 Kommando Tactical Tomahawk to review. This was a first for me having never really been a tomahawk, hatchet or ax guy. It was fun out testing it and I might have to give some more hatchets a try in the future. I had thought about being cheesy and shooting video of me destroying watermelons with it but decided not to. Maybe in the future. I did use it to do some practical functions and I’ll tell you how it did in those tests.

The TSA Stole Patriot Nurse’s Gun

I’ve been a big fan of YouTube video maker The Patriot Nurse for a few years now. I like to think I organized the very first Patriot Nurse class which was very good. Now here classes are way more comprehensive and I would love to take the new course. Yesterday I saw on Facebook that while flying recently her gun was stolen from her luggage. She is trying to draw attention to the incident in an effort to help get her weapon back. In the video she goes over the steps the had to take in the process of reporting it, which are full of red tape B.S.

How To Be A Gray Man

What Got me thinking about this was some things I’ve seen recently. While practicing my situational awareness out and at work I’ve noticed a lot of people recently that stand out. Some call what I’ve seen mall ninjas but they definitely stand out. Looking  at them I could tell that they probably watch too much Doomsday Preppers. The clothes they were wearing scream survivalist and in some situations I feel that would be a hindrance. Not always though, going to the range, a prepper convention but not the grocery store. So lets get down to what is a gray man and how to be unnoticed.

C.H Kadels Catalog

OK lets try this again. I tried to get this article out twice yesterday and had technical difficulties both times. Today I’m adding some redundancy to my post writing to fix that. Now let me preface this by saying this is not a paid post of any kind. I’ve not had any contact with the C.H Kadels folks I just thought I’d pass along this. The other day I was checking my mail and saw that I got in the new BudK catalog and some thing I’d never seen before. It was a C.H Kadels catalog. Immediately I was interested, the cover did a great job of peaking my curiosity. What was inside sold me on the catalog.

Oklahoma Tornado 2013 Charity Drive

On Monday May 20th 2013 a rare EF5 tornado tore through Moore, Oklahoma. The peak winds were estimates at 210 miles per hour. Twenty four people were killed and over 377 injured during it’s 39 minutes on the ground. A 17 mile long path of destruction was cleaved through the town. I feel for those that were lost during the storm and the many that was now homeless. Even being a prepper there is little you can do against a tornado. If your house is completely destroyed there is only so much so can do. What can be done is to help out your fellow humans though. I’m sure the Red Cross is running a charity drive however I wouldn’t waste my money with them. I found one Charity Drive I completely trust and endorse. I’ve already donated to them and will try to give you reasons why you should as well.

Memorial Day

I would like to start this post by Thanking all of our service men and women. The decision to fight for your country and possibly die for it is big one and I respect all that made it. Though I do not agree with everything the government directs the soldiers to do I respect the men and women that protect America and keep it free. To all the brave souls that decided to take no more tyranny from the British and forge a new republic. To all the soldiers that take their oath to the constitution seriously and make the choice not to follow immoral and unconstitutional orders I give you a huge Thank you. Freedom is not free, it is a constant uphill battle to fight slipping into the ant lion hole of ever increasing tyranny. So keep all those that fought, died, came home not whole and who are still fighting in your thoughts.

I’m going to leave you with a song by Greg Yow. Many of you will recognize him as the voice of the Survivalpodcast theme song. All the songs are good but I want you to listen to the song “What Have You Done?” This song really resonates in me. Have a happy Memorial Day Everyone.
