Not bad. Have you bought one yet?

To protect yourself and [Redacted for privacy] from all the sickos, I mean. They're likely finna use what is arguably impending/inevitable, and what'll be known as The Crisis/Meltdown as an excuse to go full "A Clockwork Orange" on (Heaven forbid) y'all; as well as the other upstanding citizens.

Praise God. Random: Ever seen Without Remorse, starring Michael B. Jordan (MBJ)?

Awesomeness. I'm pretty sure that I bought the movie that you're referring to and never opened it.

That's to be expected, largely. I'd argue that you're preaching to the choir, Brotha Man.

At any rate, why do you think that I brought up that movie just now? Hint: It wasn't just because MBJ is one of my all time favs.

Word is bond. Slightly disappointed that you didn't deduce, based on the correlation of our convo up until you mentioned books.

Also, I'd have been elated had you acknowledged your curiosity. That I have a sneaking suspicion might could be in effect; essentially.

Regardless, I like you; despite the fact that I apparently got left on read after congratulating you on your marriage and such. Obvi, I kinda sorta like [ibid] too; even tho she removed me from her [ibid].

That's all besides the point. I fully expect you to start [redacted due to graphicness], as if your name were John Clark/Kelly.

Presuming, of course, the violent psychos use society's collapse as an excuse to come and try to inflict cruel/unusual harm upon you two. Additionally, anyone else y'all care about would do well to obtain/master self-defense options.

I don't care if it's somehow me from a parallel universe, like on Loki (spoiler alert). [Too graphic]; disarm them; and then keep an eye out for the wounded's allies/homies while the [ibid] is taking place.

I wish I could elaborate more right now; but my groceries need to be put away "ASAP, early". I wrote a blog post detailing the sitch last night.

I believe that I'll submit it for approval tonight; for you and all the other handsome Hubbies that I care about. Either which way, as the headline on the site of my apparel brand says, "Stay blessed (and free)!"

Ahhh! Apologies for the assumption.

Word is bond. I almost forgot!

Redundancies are a key factor of American military life. Grunt officers, machine gunners, and (SF [Special Forces]) Operators almost always maintain several ways to neutralize potential Tangos (foes) on them/their persons.

That's especially the case when said service members are heading outside the wire (on missions Down Range/In Theater/Over There). If his/her rifle jams/runs out of ammo in a CQC (Close Quarters Combat) firefight, they'll automatically switch to a sidearm (pistol).

If they can't use that anymore, for some reason, out comes the bowie and/or pocket knives. I've heard stories of enemy combatants being pummeled by U.S. military helmets for actively attempting to kill Americans/innocent civilians.

Buy more rifles, plenty of ammo; and make sure that [Private] knows how to use them.

Bet.

P.S.- Y'all need pistols; shotties; machetes; crossbows; and a squad too.

Unless you disagree?

Correction: Squad and/or a reliable survival network. Because without ham radios, reasonable trade, and a few bug-out locations...

1.) It was my job to kick ass and take names in the Army. Not patch people up; not fix trucks (although, they tasked me to that briefly); and most def not to cook meals for the other Grunts who were constantly going on missions/patrols with me.

2.) I get my news from "the best podcast in the universe", the No Agenda show. No corporate sponsors.

No interviews. Just straight hard hitting facts, hilarious jokes, and near flawless deconstruction of the Lamestream media's blatant falsehoods/clever half-truths.

We're talking for the past 15 years, no less! All but the epitome of ideal, in my book at least.

3.) I've been following peeps like Mr. Peter Schiff and Mr. Harry S. Dent since I went to Iraq 25JUL2009. I strongly recommend them two too, Bossman.

4.) Finally, it's a conundrum. Tho, not in a Murphy's Law (i.e. "Everything that can go wrong, will go wrong") sense.

Many Truth Seekers (known pejoratively as "Truthers") are quite hopeful that we as a Nation will rise from the ashes, like a Phoenix. Prayerfully, America never again lets her posterity forget the perils of Willful Ignorance; Extreme Gullibility; and Overwhelming Apathy.

So, yeah. Btw, I'd Love to turn my msgs to you in this convo into another blog post (while undoubtedly protecting yours and [Redacted]'s privacy).

Either which way, no Love lost. Just tryna eat and feed Fam.

Presuming, of course that the mods of my host site approve it! They generally allow free reign, as long as there's feasibly halfway decent editing and such.

I understand completely if you need to marinate on it and/or see a final draft prior. Please let me know regardless.

You're too trill, Big Homie. "Actually factually", as the colloquialism goes.

Agreed. Godspeed; God Bless; and God keep y'all.

42T (trillion [42,000,000,000,000]) thx, once more. Peace for now and one Love to you two.

Prayerfully, someone somewhere gets something pertinent (re: useful) from this post. If that somebody's you, then please think about considering a Like/Tip/Share/Sub/Pledge, and/or checking out some of my other posts.



I'm easily reachable on Twitter for private and/or public convos on the works written by me, myself, as well as my influences too. Apparently, there aren't any other profiles for a "Darrius Unity", nor a "Nefarious Darrius".



Two R's in my name. Same account, undoubtedly.



Lastly, if you're in the market for an article of clothing or two, there's a link in my bio. Please don't think for a minute that I will be even remotely unappreciative of any all who "look out for the cookout".
